here boomers for you:
Poland vis a vis the US and Iran
As trumpet piles threat upon threat he just looks weaker and weaker by the minute. .
Iran sees this very clearly; they are playing him for the fool that he is.

@jon357 So says the armchair general thats been wrong about Trump constantly.
Hes much more intelligent than you are, thats for sure.
Go take your meds

That's not much of an answer just as trumpet is not much as a president.
Good for Chin though; they're coming out on top of this.

Xi Jinping must be sitting there in Beijing incredulously shaking his head with a little smile on his face. The Russians mired in a pointless war in Ukraine. The Americans mired in a pointless war in Iran. The old Transatlantic western alliance in tatters. "These gwailo must be out of their minds".
The future is China's, panstwo. They seem to be the only sane, peaceful superpower left.

The US can't beat Iran, so it turns to Cuba instead, hoping for a better chance. Imagine the US trying to confront Russia or China..

Cuba at least make some sense. Should make them another state or add them to Florida.
They didn't want to incorporate Cuba into the US for the only and only reason, they are Hispanics. Such consideretions nowadays are gone.

Is such considerations are gone, Russia has the rights to take Ukraine and Poland too?

There are no rights or wrongs. Either something make sense or not. Was it right and for whom history will tell.
The US lost the global hegemony, they will transform into a classical empire and that means taking territory that close to them.

Throughout History, Russia has taken a lot of territory too, but when it bankrupted in 1989, it returned them back. Dotard's attacking and "taking" Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, and possibly Greenland gives China a green light to taking Taiwan and Russia, if it's successful "taking" Ukraine, attacking Poland, for example. It's just a slippery slope from there if the international community doesn't stop it.

Iran,
Iran is the category that doesn't make sense. It is dirty job the US is doing in the interest of Israel.

Said countries don't need green light. Global hegemony is a thing of the past.
If Russia is able to take Poland they will if they find it to be in their interests. Still, they might prefer to dominate Poland without a war. Yet another issue. Are they going to be successful in their endeavours.

Internet experts always think world events are a Scooby Doo episode with one villain behind the curtain.
Internet experts
It is not even a secret. Even your White House confirmed it. If you are an old geezer out of the grid, how come you have an internet connection? They will find you.
Alternatively listen to Tucker. If you have no sense of your own.
Being in denial doesn't make you a rebel but a pitful sheep.
gives China a green light to taking Taiwan and Russia,
Why would China waste their time,money and resources invading a failed state like Russia?Except for the oil and gas.....

A decade ago, all Western countries hated oil and gas. Now they love it. Hm... where are all these solar panels and other eco systems? Canada has always been pro-oil.

We should all follow Canada's example!

Yes. In these times energy security is vital.

In Germany they are everywhere. Energy storage becomes a problem.

They are everywhere, but are they efficient enough just to pay for their installation, that's the question.
In Germany they are everywhere.
They only last about 10 years.... and disposal is going to be a problem and any land used to house solar panels cannot be used for agriculture afterwards...
Why is this a good idea?

Buy Russian gas.
Contract Rosatom to build nuclear reactors for you - like we do for Hungary and China and Egypt and a dozen other places. God knows Areva, Westinghouse, and Toshiba will take 25 years to build an NPP and its price will be many multiples of the initial estimate.
Build and own power plants in Russia - and export the electricity to Finland, the Baltics, and elsewhere. Fortum, Uniper, ENI and others used to do this before the war.
-//-
Stop buying American gas, which has to be hauled all the way from the Caribbean, or Qatari gas from the Persian Gulf!
Your immediate neighbor sits on an ocean of gas - the largest in the world - bigger than Iran's and Qatar's combined - and many times bigger than America.
Only absolute idiots would refuse this cheap, transformative energy - instead allowing China and America to pummel you without even the slightest chance of being competitive.
Only absolute idiots would refuse this cheap, transformative energy
Even the Germans gave up on it, and that means something.
Buy Russian gas.
russia has lost trust as a reliable partner. If you put violent psychopaths in charge of a country who think they have to invade their neighbors then you're saying you can't be trusted.
Trust takes years to build and was destroyed in a single day.
Own goal.
And the russian system that you're so fond of absolutely depends on the majority of people living in grinding poverty. Try to shine that tvrd all you want, all buying gas from russia will do is enrich the worst people in the world and cause more wars.
So.... no.
Buy Russian gas.
Because you are desperate.....
russia has lost trust as a reliable partner.
Agreed 100%.
Contract Rosatom to build nuclear reactors for you - like we do for Hungary and China and Egypt and a dozen other places.
A dozen other places where officials are easily bribed by cash and prostitutes to buy substandard North Nigerian equipment
Who in their right mind would let a load of alcoholics build a nuclear reactor in their backyard ?
As for buying gas then I suppose the NNs could pay some of their reparations in gas, and also for the peacekeeping force. Absolutely no money will change hands though - and that's a good thing as it would only end up in Liechtenstein or being wasted on handbags, yachts and footballers.

America bombed Iran, only to realize that the strikes would not destroy uranium. That says a lot about who is making the decisions. 🤡
. That says a lot about who is making the decisions.
Nobody thought bombing a few sites was going to magically erase uranium overnight lol. The point was damaging facility's and slowing things down.
Acting like this is some shocking revelation just makes you sound clueless.

That's not what Golden Cow said - he explicitly said that was the goal along with regime change. If you want to watch 8 minutes of senile logic then it's in his statement from Feb 28th
You believe any old **** so of course he lied to you again

Last year, Trump said that "I also obliterated Iran's nuclear hopes by totally annihilating their enriched uranium." The less he says, the less he lies.

Trump should never have been president. He appears to lack a moral compass, and his decisions are fully driven by personal ambition and the pursuit of power than by principle. It raises serious concerns about leadership and accountability at the highest level. As the Polish saying goes, "ryba psuje się od głowy" (a fish rots from the head), and he exemplifies that idea. Situations like this contribute to deadly conflicts that, in my view, could and should have been avoided.
