In this and most other sane countries, we have systems in place like regulatory RMP's (Risk Managment Plans) to evaluate activities and substance storage that carefully evaluates things like blast concentric ranges, air hazardous dispersion modeling of releases, and it's impact on the public.  And specific to certain sensitive receptors.  Our infrastructure is developed to protect the public.

I oversaw this process at my plant., and I can honestly report  that if the Islamic Republic did not have at least put some form of process, to protect their young?   THATS ON THEM!!!!!!!!

Might sound callous, but we know their priorities.


You expect that a nation that put its kids on motor scouters to clear minefields would give a wit?

I don't know. The last time we've seen this cult of devotion was 80 years ago, and by this point the opposition was mostly ready to give up, but these guys persist.

I know religion is a strong motivator, but we're on the third string and they are still holding together. It's anyone's guess to me.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

China’s 90-Day Energy Trap

The numbers are brutal and unforgiving. China imports between 11 million and 12.5 million barrels of crude every single day. Between 40 and 50 percent of that supply must thread the narrow needle of the Strait of Hormuz. Total consumption, including refined products, runs 15 million barrels daily. Even after years of frantic stockpiling, Beijing’s combined strategic and commercial reserves sit at roughly 1.1 to 1.4 billion barrels, 90 to 120 days of cover at current burn rates.

Ninety days. Coincidentally, or maybe not, that's the exact timeframe a U.S. President has via a War Powers Resolution before Congress must approve an extension.

@DCPatriot

My prediction is that the regime holds on to some semblance of power for another month or two.  But eventually, things will deteriorate to a point where they go underground and transform into Hezbollah.  They won't have any government hold, but will be able to extort locals from scattered strongholds.  Except that they'll get no sympathy on the world stage like Hezbollah and Hamas get, because Jews will no longer be their main adversary.  At that point, they'll be another islamic faction fighting for control of the next caliphate which has been islam's legacy for the past 13 centuries.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Iranian officials say the government can withstand the attacks and believe the U.S. and Israel will eventually lose their appetite for war.

Their strategy—called Operation Madman—aims to raise the costs of the conflict until Washington and Tel Aviv back down.

Adm. Brad Cooper, head of CENTCOM, said Iran’s missile launches have dropped about 90 percent since the first day of fighting, and drone launches are down 83 percent.

But Iran still retains a significant arsenal. U.S. officials told Congress in classified briefings that Iran may still have about 50 percent of its missile program intact, along with even more of its drones.

Iran's hierarchy is showing signs of fracturing over a war its leaders see as existential, with angry divisions between hardliners and more pragmatic factions laid bare by a row over President Masoud Pezeshkian's promise not to strike Gulf states-Reuters

My prediction is that the regime holds on to some semblance of power for another month or two.  But eventually, things will deteriorate to a point where they go underground and transform into Hezbollah.  They won't have any government hold, but will be able to extort locals from scattered strongholds.  Except that they'll get no sympathy on the world stage like Hezbollah and Hamas get, because Jews will no longer be their main adversary.  At that point, they'll be another islamic faction fighting for control of the next caliphate which has been islam's legacy for the past 13 centuries.

Hmmm... to read the current level of bombings, I don't think they have a month or two.  "They" meaning an effective leadership which garners respect.

They're on their 5TH stringers right now.

More than a dozen Qatari officials toured the production facilities of a major Ukrainian defense company on Wednesday, according to its management, and sat for meetings with its directors. That visit came the same day as Zelensky fielded calls with Gulf leaders.

This has been the Standard Operating Procedure for America's enemies since WW2...hold on and wait for US support to collapse from within.  It's never failed.  We're due for a change, and I would love to see it.

I'm tired of the USA losing wars.  Damned tired.

Live in  harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

Kuwait was the last one we 'won', but only because it was over before the 5th column/4th estate could get their propaganda machine spooled up. The Media and Washington have been losing wars since Korea (which is just a cease fire, not settled).
