World War III Update: The Saudis Put Iran on Notice
PJ Media ^ | August 07, 2024 | Stephen Green

Posted on 08/07/2024 10:37:40 AM PDT by george76

Middle East update on the Third World War, currently in progress

...

three upstart powers — Communist China, Nationalist Russia, and Radical Islam* — who mean to reshape the global order to suit their interests and aren't shy about using any means at their disposal (including violence) to achieve that end.

...

The members of this new Axis also make fantastic allies of convenience, if not ideology. A bit like Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia allying for the brief and brutal business of carving up Poland

...

China wants the western Pacific (that's everything on the other side of Hawaii) as Beijing's vassals. Russia wants its empire back

...

Riyadh warned Iran that "it will not allow Iran to use Saudi Airspace to launch an Attack on Israel, and that any Missiles, Drones, or Aircraft that enter its Airspace will be seen as a Violation of Saudi Sovereignty." Maybe that doesn't sound like such a big deal, particularly since the Kingdom was quick to note, "We are Defending ourselves, not Israel."

But Saudi airspace isn't needed for an Iranian attack on Israel.

...

miss the days when President Donald Trump's sanctions kept Iran effectively trapped in a box. But, having been set loose by President Emeritus Joe Biden, the best we can hope for — at least for the time being — is an Arab alliance in unofficial conjunction with the Israelis — boxing Iran back up again.

It will be needlessly bloody, of course, but that's the way world wars go.

Nothing to worry about, if Heels Up Harris and Tampon Tim get in office, they will have all this sorted out in the first week in power.

Only the US is allowed to act like an empire and bully countries around that don't get with the Neocon program.

I get it.

No Victoria Nuland cookies for you Iran!

I made it this far into this laughable BS. Upstart China, Russia and World Islam?!? What a blind jingoistic dullard.

Outstanding. I guess that leaves Turkey/Syria or Yemen, but that routing is rather circuitous.

Of course this won’t stop missiles flying well above the radar.

Iran doesn’t have the ability for a full war with Israel. They are patiently waiting for an easier method to destroy Israel, developing their nuclear weapons with the money from Obama/Biden/Harris.

Ezekiel 38 is in the bible for a reason.
no one can stop it.
when it is time... THAT balloon will go up.

Ezekiel saw the wheel.. way up in the middle of the air. He saw what he was shown and obediently wrote it down so we can observe it as it happens in OUR day.

that is NOT pretend and he was not taking acid. all the nations to the north of Israel who hate her... will be destroyed. Assyrian descendants all... are NOT sons of Abraham.

but the arabs... are abe’s second family... along with Israel... blood may be thicker than water, or nuclear bombs.

Abraham Accords coming back to bite Iran in the a@@. The Saudis do NOT want Iran as master of Mecca and the Chief of the Caliphate. No Shiites— no way. Why they will protect Israel to protect Mecca under the stewardship of the House of Saud. It is a Royal Duty, btw, in the House of Saud.

They will keep Egypt at bay as well if needed. And it is also about whose oil drives OPEC.

Saudi Arabia is reminding Iran that the Abraham Accord controls events in the region.

For the record, Houthi missiles and drones attempt to cross Saudi Air space and have been shot down.

Houthis are in fact Iran

If the Dims get into office, we’ll have Iran and Somalia ruling over us, and setting up death camps!

However, it is more likely that we’ll see a Republican victory reminiscent of the days of McGovern and Mondale!

We don't trust what the Deep State told us about Biden's health.

We don't trust what the Deep State tells us about Harris's competency.

We don't trust what the Deep State told us about COVID.

We don't trust what the Deep State tells us about Climate Change.

Yet somehow we're supposed to trust what the Deep State tells us about foreign policy?

Really?

How naive are you Ukrainiacs and Christian Zionists? You're being played like a fiddle. It would be one thing if we were talking about Reagan's America expanding its influence on the World. What we are now dealing with is Soros's America expanding its degeneracy around the World.

I don't support Russia or China or Iran, but if the US has a right to maintain its empire then all those countries have a right to pushback or even attempt to create their own empires. What's good for our Goose (currently being cooked), is good for their Ganders.

The white flag of surrender will be flying on every flagpole in Amerika...

The US has never had an "empire" - we fight to protect the unprotected and defend our independence. Our enemies invade, steal, subvert.

If you support our enemies, then you are a traitor AND the enemy (or just a slimy draft dodger).

When Heels up Harris and Tampon Tim hoist the surrender flag for our enemies, they will pay off any war reparations we might owe with BJs and Tampons for life.
