7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Speech/stategy is "Iran will win war in 2-3 weeks and we are incapable of changing Iran's victory, but their civilians being gaza/stone aged will give us a sense of superiority"
Beyond pure demonic evil cruelty, destruction costs $2b/day in operations budget, delays global access to energy/shortages dry spots will occur, Iran will retaliate against future export capacity in the region. US troops are staged in GCC sharing videos of missile strikes on them.
GCC is extremely disappointing in this war. Zionazi media does keep claiming it is them instead of Israel that wants war/escalation/stone age, but they host US "ground" troops and air/missile attack sites. They blame Iran for self-defense retaliations more than US/Israel evil. Given plain strategy laid out, Iran, to survive better, needs to hit all Gulf desalination pre-emptively, and with drones sink/damage tankers that serve GCC ports every day. Tankers are massive sitting duck capital assets whose loss also means revenue/profit loss from high prices, and propaganda cannot hide the damage.
Desalination plants means GCC needs the gulf opened in under 10 days (Trump plan subject to insufficient gazafication determination after 3 weeks). GCC military/people can coup their monarchies sticking with US stone age plan. GCC is on wrong side of history here, and should all know that they are on the next domino line of Israel conquests/destruction from a weak Iran.
China could do more, if only by assuring world that they can guarantee opening the straights (with Iran cooperation) as soon as US leaves. That they can help the GCC rebuild if they have a government not hostile to Iran, and that supporting Gazafication of Iran does not help anyone in the world, especially GCC.
