🇮🇷⚡️- BREAKING: Mojtaba Khamenei is officially the new Supreme Leader of Iran.

🇺🇸🇮🇷🇮🇱⚡- "Tensions between the US military and Israel over the attack on oil facilities in Iran.

A senior American security official said: 'The Israelis informed us in advance about the attacks on the oil facilities, but did not say they would be so extensive. We do not think it was a good idea,'" - Barak Ravid of Axios.

“Short term oil prices, which will drop rapidly when the destruction of the Iran nuclear threat is over, is a very small price to pay for U.S.A., and World, Safety and Peace. ONLY FOOLS WOULD THINK DIFFERENTLY!” — Donald J. Trump

Only fools. Let us pause on that for just a moment – because the man who bankrupted casinos, the sovereign miracle of managed incompetence, the golden-toilet philosopher-king of Mar-a-Lago, has decided that the working people of America filling their tanks $3.41 a gallon and climbing fast – up forty-three cents in a single week, the biggest weekly crude surge since records began in 1983 – are to consider themselves fortunate. Blessed, even. You are paying for World Peace, peasant. You are funding Safety, serf. Now shut up, get back in your truck, swipe your card, and be grateful the genius on Truth Social has it all figured out.

Qatar’s energy minister not some Resistance blogger, not a professor at Berkeley, but the man who controls one of the planet’s great LNG arteries – looked at what Trump has done to the Strait of Hormuz and said plainly that oil at $150 a barrel could bring down the economies of the world.

The Dow dropped 900 points the day Trump demanded unconditional Iranian surrender. Goldman Sachs issued warnings. The Fed is now staring down the barrel of stagflation – rising prices, falling jobs, 92,000 positions gone last month alone. But yes. Tell us again about the fools.

This was never about a nuclear weapons program, and anyone who has watched American foreign policy for twenty minutes in the last thirty years knows it. The Strait of Hormuz carries a fifth of the world’s oil. Whoever dominates the Persian Gulf dominates the arteries of the global economy – Chinese imports, Indian refining, Japanese industry, South Korean manufacturing, all of it flows or dies by those narrow waters. That is the map that matters. That is what is actually at stake – not some bomb that Iran did not have, but the ancient imperial compulsion to plant a boot on the throat of Eurasia’s energy spine and call it liberation. But the markets are coldly reporting just how much of a fool these merchants of war are.

And the man holding the pen – the self-proclaimed dealmaker, the closer, the genius – has the audacity to call the ones who notice it fools. History will have a different name for him.

Russia Serves a Cold Dish to the GCC and India https://sonar21.com/russia-serves-a-cold-dish-to-the-gcc-and-india/

Russia may start using jet versions of the "Geran" strike drones with speeds of up to 600 km/h, Forbes reports, citing Ukrainian military sources.

Sergei Beskrestnov, an advisor to the Ukrainian Defense Ministry and known as "Flash", believes that the most likely direction for the modernization of these drones is increasing their speed, which could complicate the work of Ukrainian air defense systems.

"Russia may add evasive maneuvers, fly at very low altitudes, or increase speed. Given the design of the 'Geran', increasing speed seems the most feasible option," he said.

According to Ukrainian intelligence, the jet drone "Geran-3" is capable of speeds over 500 km/h, and the larger version, "Geran-5", can reach up to 600 km/h. At the same time, such drones can carry up to 90 kg of explosives and cover distances of around 1,000 km.
