Translated from Arabic
The Lebanese told the Iranian ambassador in Beirut: You're not welcome and you must leave.

The ambassador refused because he thought Beirut was just like Baghdad.

The Lebanese dragged him by his ear to the airport and expelled him.
They dragged him like a dog and stuffed him into his pocket with a beating.

The Iranian ambassador in Beirut when he refused to leave the embassy building 
Lebanese security forces dragged him out from inside the embassy building by force 
And threw him in the car trunk and the officer smashed his head against it with all his might 🤣

Excellent analysis!   

...specifically regarding our narrative of 'infallibility' and damages incurred.

It's the Lebanese kicking the Iranian Ambassador out of Beirut.  He refused to leave so they dragged him out by the ears....

The headbutt was a nice touch there at the end.!

[PeteS in CA]

The US has what? 5 or 10 or maybe 20 thousand combat Marines and soldiers near Iran? That is far from invade-Iran numbers. That sounds more like forces for get in, get it, and get out operation(s) of some sort.

Thank you for the translation....that was priceless!  I agree with @Wingnut (heaven help me), the headbutt at the end was a nice touch.

This will perhaps be Iran's saving grace  -- they probably know by now that their underground arsenal of missiles and endless caverns are untouchable by both the U.S. and Israel -- neither have bombs that can penetrate the depths needed to be destroyed (at lest that we know of).

[Weird Tolkienish Figure]

These Iranians extremists look like they reek... or is that just me?

I think you might reconsider that.

We (and probably Israel, also) have "bombs" that will easily "penetrate the depths needed".
Of course, we're not using those weapons yet, because to use them would provoke world uproar.

Nevertheless, such a time could arrive, if things don't go as planned...

Hi Democrats 👋
When the Speaker of the regime's Parliament is echoing your call, maybe it’s time to ask yourself if you haven’t drifted away too far from shore.

2,076?  Al Jazeera intentionally neglected to count the tens of thousands of Iranians killed by the IRGC which led to this war.

Russia has stepped up its support for Iran providing Iran with drone shipments and advice on Iranian drone strikes altitude, numbers of drones per wave whilst also providing targeting data which has been used to successful target US military radar installations-WSJ

Although Iran is rationing its shipments, especially of medium and long-range missiles, it is becoming more precise and causing real damage to military targets like the Prince Sultan Air Base. There, it destroyed a valuable E-3 early warning aircraft (AWACS) and several KC-135 tankers. It has also managed to strike industrial plants in Bahrain, the UAE, and Israel. Everything points to them receiving intelligence from Russia, seemingly in retaliation for the same intel the Ukrainians are receiving.
Through recent attacks on Baltic ports like Primorsk, Ust-Luga, and Novorossiysk, and several refineries, Ukraine has managed to reduce Russia's oil export capacity by 40%. It is possible that this new scenario and Putin's pro-regime stance will shift Trump’s ambiguous position toward Putin and lead him to re-evaluate aid to Ukraine. Consequently, the Ukrainians gain a formidable ally in the Gulf countries, who are receiving assistance from the Ukrainians based on their four years of experience in drone warfare. It seems Zelensky is becoming the great beneficiary through a geopolitical 'billiard shot' effect resulting from the U.S. and Israeli war against the Iranian regime."

Yet the US continues to dismiss Ukraine drone technology while at the same time insisting that they surrender to Russia.

One doesn't typically roll out the red carpet for anyone considered an enemy while carrying their water in negotiations with a country they're terrorizing:

Nope, not a negative at all, just being realistic -- no worries @Fishrrman already corrected me on the accuracy of my understanding.

Have a truly marvelous day @Wingnut - get out and get some fresh air and sunshine.
