I predicted this several times, I posted that if Krasnov went to war in Iran, it will be his downfall.
The worst for Krasnov is yet to come. A tanker is on fire in Hormuz. Tankers are sitting ducks. What will the cost be for our Navy to escort tankers through Hormuz? Iran is reportedly laying mines in the waters. Several ME countries are cutting back on oil production. Krasnov killed the supreme leader of Iran and some of his family, but he didn't kill the new leader, his son who is much more radical. What do they say in the ME? An eye for an eye.
Bibi has a copy of the Epstein files.
Putin and Bibi both used Krasnov to do their bidding, either through blackmail or by flattering him.
Krasnov isn't going to say when this war is over, Iran is going to say, and I suspect it will be many years from now, Krasnov really fucked up this time, the genie is out of the bottle.
Oh and only one country that I can think of surrendered because of being bombed, Japan. Which way does the wind blow from Tehran?

(31,994 posts)She had Miles Taylor on her show (he should be our next president) He said that Kash Patel just fired 10 senior FBI agents who work on Iranian counterintelligence. Think about that. Miles said that when he was in the government, before Krasnov fired him, he used to write up those intelligence reports which were shared with state/local law enforcement. He gave examples that state law enforcement should be proactive around synagogues in certain states, or be proactive around airports or sports arenas. Now those reports are not going out to state and local law enforcement, they are flying blind, this is how incompetent the Epstein administration is. maybe they want a terror attack on our country?

Trump will probably die in bed or on the golf course. He is the worst curse ever placed on our country.

(31,994 posts)What Krasnov and Bibi did is going to have worldwide consequences. World economies are going to suffer.
No way on God's brown earth should oil prices be below 100 dollars right now, they can only hold back the price for so long.
150 dollar/barrel oil will skyrocket inflation. It won't just be regular gasoline rising, it will be diesel fuel that powers farm tractors and semis that deliver products to customers. It will be jet fuel for airplanes that fly people all over the world.
Krasnov can kill people on 5th Avenue, he just killed Good and Pretti, and Magats will still love him, but when unwashed Magats can't fill up their pickup trucks that is a bridge too far, and he can't blame anyone else but himself.

(72,064 posts)His brain-dead cult followers will fall on the grenades, shield him from consequences, and protect him from any fall-out from his monstrousness.
They wont need to drink poison to demonstrate their loyalty, either, because he would never order them to do so. As long as someone else is around to take the fall, he never will.
I hate to sound so pessimistic, but optimism has done fuck-all this entire crashingly awful century.
