Let us try to describe one of the possible scenarios of further escalation in the Middle East. The Palestinian uprising begins in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Mahmoud Abbas cannot contain the situation, and seeing Israel carrying out a full-blown genocide in the Gaza Strip, the Palestinians launch an all-out revolt.
The IDF continues to massacre civilians in the Gaza Strip. There are growing protests around the world against Western pro-American liberal elites standing unanimously in favor of Israel. Hezbollah gets involved and crowds of Arabs from Jordan break through the cordons at the border.
The U.S. launches preemptive strikes against Iran, which is increasingly involved in the conflict, and Iran strikes back against Israel. Syria enters the war, attacking the Golan Heights. There is a rapid mobilization of the entire Islamic world. Pro-American Islamic states - Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar etc. - are being forced to join the confrontation on the side of the Palestinians. They are joined by Pakistan, Turkey and Indonesia.
The story of the Taliban sending troops to the Middle East from fake news becomes reality. The black banners of Khorassan are hoisted over the world. Problems between Salafists and traditionalists, including Shiites, fade into the background. The great jihad of the Islamic world against the West and Israel is beginning.

Very perceptive.
From what I know, I totally agree.
Your link is far more accurate than the one the post is made from.
It is very hard to say anything good about Hamas at this point.
Dugin’s the premier geopolitical thinker in Russia. Putin puts a lot of stock in his opinions. China, probably not so much, but where Russia goes, China will probably follow.
As for how stupid they are to believe that Muslims won’t turn on them, that is true, but you must remember that Russia began as a traitor state, appeasing the Mongols and collecting taxes from their fellow Christians on behalf of the Muslim overlords.
Shouldn’t you at least find someone who thinks an attack on a carrier group is impossible before you start pretending that is the accepted idea?
And quit pretending I am posting things I’m not.
My advice to you is to quit crying about everything and pretending you are the only person on earth thinking about what can happen to a Navy ship, or what happens if Israel fights back against Hamas, and suggesting that it is overwhelming and it is better to not resist.
I will quit doing that when you stop posting what you do, is that a good ending ??
My advice to you is stop passing yourself off as some expert and engage in thoughtful discussion, if you are capable of that, which is in doubt.
If you read books, especially novels, how many offer up out of the box ideas that end up becoming true.
Does Brave New World, Animal Farm, 1984, Atlas Shrugged, One Second After, ring a bell, what if all those authors followed your advice and just went away.
I don’t need anyone to agree with me, to offer up ideas that likely will never happen, if we eliminated all the hair brained ideas on FR, abut 2/3 of all the posts would be eliminated and then you and a couple of other people could all take back and forth to each other.
You got very nasty in post-40 and decided to stay nasty it seems.
Why you are obsessed with some simple routine negative ideas about why the Israelis shouldn’t fight and the American Navy should retreat is puzzling, as is why you are looking for someone to engage in a conversation about your imagination and its fear of engaging Hamas.
Israel is attacking and the American Navy is there.
Of course, your posts from the very first one was filled with rainbows and unicorns, I posted a theory, called it hair brained, and said it was unlikely to happen.
I’ve been asked did I read your post, was I crying, I should quit, etc....
Look yourself in the mirror.

I did not know this.. But, I would assume, they have a LOT more to lose now then they had back then... (?) Certainly more military power and available resources.....maybe.
Wow, you aren’t all there, no wonder you see things as you do.
Again with the insults, why is that. When someone immediately starts with insults it says a lot about them and their ability to engage in meaningful debate.
Yeah.
Iran is in overall command of all of this, but, I believe they and hamas were given the greenlight, for this, in the spring, by Lavrov when he met the top hamas leadership, in Moscow.
Hamas couldn’t have done this without Iran and Iran wouldn’t do something this momentus without approval from Moscow.
Thank God we have the brillant Pedo Joe and the Ho to guide us through these stormy waters./sarc
Buy canned food.
Just sayin’.
He’s not dumb.
Please don’t make that fatal mistake.
He may be delusional but he is not dumb. He’s following the same pro-Paul stance as did the Soviets.
He hates the West and by extension, Israel.
He wants us dead, period.
The reason why his opinion matters at all is he’s no longer simply the fringe obscure intellectual.
He apparently has the ear of the Russian Tsar bent, along with many in the military and security apparatus.
I can’t get onto Twitter right now. Is this really Dugin writing this ?
In any case, many “points” are quite plausible.
However, once again, all of this caterwauling makes it seem to me that Hamas is on the precipice of annihilation. The haters are talking a tough game.
Is it all talk, or are they ready to instigate the worst case scenarios?
For those who don’t know Dugin’s significance, by all means see the following link about Alexander Dugin who is a profound influencer on Putin’s policies of infiltration and conquest. See the 21 bullet points listed there, the import is truly frightening. I consider his book as profoundly important today as was Mein Kampf in the 1930s. It is being taught in the Russian military schools, and recommended for teaching in the secondary schools. It was published in 1997 just as Putin came to power and influence in the Russian secret service.

Dugin’s daughter was accidentally assassinated not long ago as Dugin walked away from what became a killing site with his daughter left driving the car that was blown up.
See my comment #56. Dugin may be delusional, but he is not dumb. Hitler may have been delusional when he wrote Mein Kampf, but how many people are dead because of him. Look at the link, and see Dugin’s 21 point plan for conquering the world. He even has plans for China which should not make Xi happy with Russia. Do what you can to help stop him, as I am trying to do.
I think that Dugin’s influence is seriously over-estimated. He is a academic theoretician that doesn’t line up with core Russian interests in many cases.
For example his Eurasianism implies that Kaliningrad would be returned to German control and the Baltics especially Estonia conceded to German influence. And the Kuriles Islands returned to Japan.
Well, that kind of territorial concessions are clearly not on wrt Putin. And anyone recommending those moves is going to have limited influence.
Dugin swapped cars with his daughter shortly before the car blew up. The car was kept in a monitored garage.
Fair to say his daughter wasn’t the intended target. Having blown up the wrong person the security authorities immediately blamed a Ukrainian mom who piggybacked her young kid while infiltrating a compound swarming with CCTV and guards to plant a bomb to kill someone who wasn’t using the car.
It’s standard FSB/GRU level Vranyo.
Iran’s clock must need a new battery or else they invented a machine to slow down time that makes a few days seem like only a few hours.
