Franchement, l'enchainement des déclarations de Donald Trump devraient éveiller quelques doutes dans son entourage, surtout son staff médical.

Trump and Netanyahu see the same mirages as Saddam On September 22, 1980, Saddam Hussein assembled a force of 50,000-70,000 men, 2,500-3,000 tanks, IFVs and APCs, supported by about 120-150 aircraft and 400 pieces of artillery/MLRS, and invaded the Iranian province of Khuzestan. The Iraqi army of the era was modern, well-equipped, and technologically superior. Capitalizing on the chaos sown by the Islamic Revolution, it surged across the Iranian plains. With such a massive force, it seemed invincible, who could have possibly stood in its way? The advance was rapid. In less than a week, the Iraqi tanks crossed the Karun River and surrounded key cities. The flat topography of Khuzestan favored the armored doctrine. Until the advance stopped. When they tried to enter Khorramshahr, the Iraqi vehicles got stuck in narrow streets and were hunted by Iranian militiamen with grenade launchers (RPGs). This forced Saddam to divert even more troops to the south, turning the place into a meat grinder. Saddam realized he would not be able to take Khuzestan in a rush. He ordered the total siege of Abadan and the street-by-street invasion of Khorramshahr. It was the first major tactical error. Troops and armored vehicles entered dense urban areas and came face to face with young Iranians firing RPG-7s from the tops of buildings. The result was that Iraq took Khorramshahr after 34 days, but at a human cost that broke the morale of the armored divisions. With the Iraqi momentum exhausted, the southern front turned into a “World War I in the desert.” In May 1982, Iran surrounded and captured 19,000 Iraqi soldiers in Khorramshahr. In 1980, small groups of Iranian soldiers and Kurdish militias used the caves and fissures of the mountains to fire anti-tank missiles from top to bottom. Approximately 20,000 to 30,000 Iraqis were killed on the southern front alone until 1982, and a large part of the tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed or abandoned. On the Northern and Central Axis, it was a mountain war. Iraq advanced to the foothills of the Zagros, but was again halted by numerous Iranian positions in that mountain range. Today the situation is very similar: Iran does not try to hold the border; it lets the enemy enter, because it knows it will have protected positions in the mountains to establish a war of attrition. At this moment, a CSG with about 5,000 marines is on its way to the region, where it should join Israeli troops to attempt an operation to liberate the Strait of Hormuz and take Kharg Island. Even if this force carried out the land invasion, where would it shelter? In the same plain that became hell for the Iraqis, or in the short strip of flat land that exists at some points of Hormuz? And another question: where will this troop group up in the face of Iranian missiles and drones? In any point of the Iranian Gulf lands where there might be success in its occupation, there will be positions in the mountains, drones and missiles hitting that occupation to the point of causing many casualties. Just as the US-Israel sees a chance of occupation on Kharg Island, Saddam also saw it in Khuzestan. In Iran, when the land is flat, it is also surrounded by positions in the mountains and ositions fortified with Iranian UHPC. To get an idea of the Iranian fortifications, while the high-strength concrete of the USA revolves around 100-150 MPa (megapascals), Iran regularly produces concrete of 200 to 400 MPa. If the GBU-57 bombs cannot penetrate a few meters of UHPC that protect the entrances of the mountains of the nuclear installations, the surgical bombing with GBU-72, which weigh only 20% of the GBU-57, and occurred in the last days in the mountains of the strait, is a myth. Putting feet on the ground in Iran would require a force that the United States today is incapable of mobilizing.

@al_bonnel Le soleil brille et va continuer ainsi. Courage à toi.

Après une année de traitement, je suis en rémission. Deux opérations lourdes, un staphylocoque doré où j’ai cru y passer, 20 chimiothérapies, 25 radiothérapies, et un traitement hormonal à venir. Merci pour votre patience, votre présence, même silencieuse. Je me reconstruis doucement. Je reviens bientôt avec des chroniques hebdomadaires. Vous m’avez manqué.

Coupe une tête et il en sortira une autre. Trump aurait déclaré à ses collaborateurs être favorable à l'assassinat du nouveau guide suprême iranien (fils de ...) si ce dernier n'accepte pas les demandes américaines. Ça peut durer un moment si on joue à ça ...

Énième accès de colère (délire) de Trump. « L'OTAN est un tigre de papier, ces gens ne voulaient pas se joindre à la guerre contre l'Iran. Maintenant que la guerre est militairement gagnée (sic), ils se plaignent des prix élevés du pétrole [...] Des lâches »

Consider this nightmare scenario: Trump keeps at it for few more weeks/months, fails to dislodge IRN regime and works out a deal instead: a partial restoration of shipping & side payments to IRGC. The global economy adjusts, but the Gulf states stay held to ransom by Iran.

Worth noting you can't really do Kharg without reopening Hormuz. Might be possible to stage some sort of SOF raid with support out of Kuwait or Bahrain but to really take & defend it the US will need to push a Marine ARG and Aegis destroyers for top cover far up into the Gulf.

#China's crude oil imports from its biggest supplier, Russia, were 21.8 million tons in the first two months of 2026, or 2.7 million barrels per day, up 41% year-on-year, according to customs data published on Friday. The daily import rate in the first two months hit a record high, at least since 2015, according to Reuters calculations based on customs data. #oott marketscreener.com/news/china-s-c…

Le tweet a été effacé il semblerait. Peut-être se sont-elles rendu compte que cela faisait penser aux associations de banlieues 🇫🇷 soutenues par l’ambassade 🇺🇸. Ça fait toujours mauvais genre d’être lié à une puissance étrangère qui ne travaille, elle, qu’à ses propres intérêts.

La Commission 🇪🇺 va proposer aux pays membres de réduire les taxes sur l'électricité et de subventionner les prix comme mesure rapide d'atténuation du choc provoqué par la guerre contre l'Iran.

The economic situation in Ukraine is precarious, heavily dependent on foreign aid whose consistency in the coming years is questionable. Spending 27% worth of its GDP on defense, while Russia spends the equivalent of 5.1%, makes the long-term sustainability of the war questionable and is driving the country toward a financial abyss. Quoting the article: "We believe that Ukraine, by continuing the war and increasing taxes, is moving toward default and economic collapse," says the think tank Ukrainian Institute of the Future in a recent assessment of the economy. Unfortunately, the near-collapsed and now unstable electricity infrastructure will have an additional impact this year. Russia executed an operational pause this winter and focused on strategic deep strikes to degrade Ukraine’s ability to wage war. Victory will be decided on this front, where endurance is key. This year’s budget expenditures are not fully funded, and are likely underestimated. I maintain my hypothesis that a real assessment of both sides’ perspectives will occur next winter; the focal point will be reached or not.

B Netanyahou ne dit pas la même chose à son électorat & au reste du monde. Combien de tps durera la guerre ? «Aussi longtemps que nécessaire», (en hébreu aux journalistes israéliens). «Plus tôt que vous ne le pensez», (en anglais aux correspondants étrangers) @LeFigaro_France

Russia has spent billions and billions of dollars building ghost pipelines to serve the Japan and SK markets. They are still incomplete but it would be barely an inconvenience to finish them up. I assume they would want to sign nice long contracts and the Asian counterparties would be relieved not to be dependent on Middle East for energy. Bad news for Europe if all this goes down…their gas at preferential prices might never come back.

Shout out to Qatar for the worst return on a $400M bribe in history.
