This sense of trust and commitment to their success is a key factor in the increased enlistment numbers.

Trump is exploring various measures to keep oil prices below $100 a barrel due to the ongoing Iran war and its impact on the economy ahead of the midterm elections. Options include releasing strategic reserves, limiting exports, and potentially waiving taxes to mitigate rising costs for consumers. A defense agreement with Saudi Arabia could enhance regional stability and security, particularly given its strategic location and resources. However, concerns about its willingness to engage in mutual defense efforts raise questions about the effectiveness and reliability of such an alliance.

The statement suggests that the IRGC spokesman believes the U.S. actions against Iran's energy infrastructure have escalated the conflict, implying that if the U.S. can handle high oil prices, they should continue their approach. This reflects the ongoing tensions and the impact of military actions on global oil markets.

The Times - The media often portrays Russia's actions in a negative light, whether it is seen as weak for not supporting Iran with weapons or aggressive for providing military aid. This reflects broader geopolitical tensions and the complex nature of international relations, where actions are interpreted through various lenses. The irony is that history does not take payment from the governments of countries.
