Iranian regime seems confused in Biden’s decisions
Iran News Wire ^ | Feb 20 2021 | Cyrus Yaqubi

While Iran is mired in a social, economic, and political quagmire due to widespread and systematic corruption and its officials’ incompetence, the regime’s leaders are knocking on every door to find a way out of this situation. The regime’s Supreme Leader Khamenei and President Rouhani, who faced sanctions from the Trump administration and have been under severe economic pressure, had invested on US elections, hoping that with US President Biden’s victory, he would immediately return to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and lift sanctions, and release Iran’s blocked funds so that the clerics could once again sell oil and perhaps revive their dead economy.

This is because nearly 60 million of Iran’s 82 million people live below the poverty line. This figure covers 90% of workers in some provinces. Due to the high cost of housing and the inability of people to pay rent, 38 million people have moved to the outskirts of cities and live in very poor conditions, and while the poverty line has reached above 10 million tomans, the salaries of many workers and employees are less than 3 million tomans. Some of these workers and employees have not received their meager salaries for several months. Many people have not tasted meat for several months and many foods have been removed from their diet. Some even buy their daily bread from their neighborhood bakeries in installments and pay for it later.

The Covid-19 pandemic has also exasperated their situation. According to the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), more than 216,000 people have died from the deadly virus with no vaccine in sight.

If the Dems have control of Iran’s blocked funds, I would bet they don’t want to give them back to Iran.

Part of the mentality of the virtue signaling left is they constantly change the definition of virtue.

Initially folks are confused by this.

Eventually everybody figures out the leftists are insane sociopaths that can never be trusted.

Iran and other nations will “get it”—and then they will stop talking and start working on destroying the evil enemy.

Iranian: “Are these American politicians nuts?”

US aide: “No comment, Your Exalted Supreme Excellence.”

Biden is trending lightly putting up a lot of smoke and mirrors as to not give away that Obama is in control.
Non the less the Iranian regime’s goal for tactical nukes
is still trucking along Friday Biden undid more of Trump’s sanctions on the Iranian regime that now allows for Communist Russia and CCP China to sell them weapons.

Look for North Korea too get more into the act

The Israelis are prepping for major strike on Iran

Also consider that Obama and the Russians are negotiating sanctions over the Mcalvany poisonings and Solarwinds hacks. They are in discussions behind the scenes with each other to have sanctions that don’t actually harm Russia’s ability to operate or trade with Europe, only on specific people (and they can use Belarus to get around them if needed, also part of the negotiations).

Yeah.
Speaking of the Russians they’ve taken control of Armenia and large swaths of Azerbaijan that whole conflict was a phony proxy war perpetrated by the Russians, who has now made the Turks they’re satellite state extension from the underground after Turkish President Erdogan conceded to Putin in those series of meetings a year or two ago

Thunder in the coming months, what do you see coming down the pipeline as it relates to the ongoings of the Baltic/Ukraine/Georgia, Korean Peninsula, Iran/,Israel, Syria, Taiwan/South China sea? In your view do you see anything that could go full blown kinetic that then sees the Red Dawn attack/invasion of these United states of America?

First thing’s first I suspect that they will allow things to deteriorate here in the US more. They are content to wait as they build up their forces against the US and shore up their funding. Had Trump won they would have launched a “First Strike” against the US, after having the left tear this country apart kinetically (BLM/Antifa riots from last summer but 100x worse, followed up with massive terrorist attacks).
