Iran’s Central Military Command (Khatam Al-Anbiyaa) says:
In regards to America's blatant breach of promise of contract regarding the failure to implement Paragraph 1 of the MoU to end the war.
And in response to the continuous violations of the ceasefire in southern Lebanon and the merciless killing and displacement of hundreds of thousands of the oppressed people of this land, and failure of Israeli occupation forces to withdraw from southern Lebanon: We announce closing of Strait of Hormoz for all vessels.
This is a first step as a response to the enemy's breach of promise, and if the aggression continues, further steps will be planned and taken.

Israel can't go more than a few hours without violating any given ceasefire. They're like crackheads but for war crimes unable to stop themselves.

Iran applying ‘maximum pressure’ on TrumpAbdulla Banndar Al Eltaibi, a professor at Qatar University has told Al Jazeera that Iran is playing what’s called the weekend strategy.
“That’s what President Trump used to do for the markets not to react during weekends. So they [Iran] are actually applying maximum pressure on President Trump and also the mediators to have Hormuz for Lebanon basically,” he said.
“They want all fighting to stop in Lebanon for the Strait of Hormuz to be restored.”
https://aje.news/o3j66i?update=4682028latest developments:>- The Iranian central military command says it will close the Strait of Hormuz over Israel’s attacks on southern Lebanon, describing them as a breach of the agreement with the US.<- Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei has told state media that a delegation negotiating with US will shortly travel to Switzerland to demand “that the other side fulfill its obligations”.>- US Vice President JD Vance has also said he expects to travel to Switzerland for talks with Iran within days.https://aje.news/o3j66i?update=4681839Iran does not control Strait of Hormuz, CENTCOM saysThe US Central Command spokesperson has told our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic that Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz.
The spokesperson said the US forces are monitoring the situation to ensure the continuation of navigation through the waterway.
Earlier, Iran’s IRGC said the Strait of Hormuz is closed over Israel’s continuing attacks on southern Lebanon.
Negotiations appear to be going backwards since MoU was signedThings are moving backwards from when the MoU was signed by Trump in Versailles and Pezeshkian in Tehran.
The basic cause of what is going on in Lebanon, because the MoU says there should be a ceasefire there. Israel is breaching that ceasefire by repeatedly bombarding southern Lebanon. For that reason, the Iranians at first used their first method of trying to complain about that: by delaying the planned talks.
The US side put pressure on Israel. A new ceasefire was announced almost exactly 24 hours ago, but that has not helped, Israel continued to bombard southern Lebanon.
We’ve also had comments from JD Vance and Trump, but Israel is not stopping.
The Iranians see this as a serious breach of the MoU. Their first sanction was by not coming here. They have now utilised their best weapon by closing the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran believes this tactic will help get things back on track with regard to southern Lebanon.
But what’s interesting is that the Iranians are now saying they’re coming here. There are no commercial flights between Tehran and Zurich, but given the time it will take them to get here, it’s more likely that the talks will now take place on Sunday. The agenda of the talks has now changed completely.
https://aje.news/o3j66i?update=4681882 The deal is OFF.
The strait is CLOSED.
US, Israel’s interests diverging on MoU provision for LebanonUS and Israeli interests are diverging significantly regarding the MoU’s provision for Lebanon, says Yossi Mekelberg, senior consulting fellow at Chatham House.
Both Trump and Vance have accused Netanyahu of “deliberately undermining the MoU by using disproportionate military force” in Lebanon, Mekelberg told Al Jazeera from London.
There are a few different ways in which Israel might respond to US pressure to respect the ceasefire in Lebanon, he added.
The first is that Netanyahu “immediately” concedes to the US and tries to push for a diplomatic solution “vis-a-vis Hezbollah, and the safety and security of the border in Lebanon”.
The second is that the Israeli PM “will push it for another few days” and make the point that “Israel was not part of this agreement”, saying that Israel is continuing its attacks on Lebanon because it has “concerns regarding Hezbollah and Iran’s involvement” and insists that Israel be included in any agreement reached, said Mekelberg.
“But the worst case scenario from Israel’s point of view is Netanyahu… might decide to just go solo and decide to continue the war, completely ignore US public opinion and what Trump says… which of course is an extremely risky scenario for Israel, with a very heavy price for the Lebanese people.”
https://aje.news/o3j66i?update=4682031 >>2845429People fell for the market manipulation AGAIN
Netanyahu promises to remain in southern Lebanon: ReportThe Israeli prime minister has stressed that Israeli troops will remain in southern Lebanon “for as long as necessary to defend its northern border,” according to a Times of Israel report.
In a statement to the media by a senior official at the Prime Minister’s Office, Netanyahu has reportedly instructed the Israeli army to “respond forcefully to any Hezbollah attack and to act to remove threats against our forces”.
https://aje.news/o3j66i?update=4682103Iran testing whether US is willing to use its leverage over IsraelMohamad Elmasry, a professor at Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, has told Al Jazeera that Iran’s position on continuing negotiations has not changed fundamentally.
“My sense is that they’re going to remain committed to Lebanon being included before anything moves forward. I think their credibility is on the line,” he said.
He noted that Lebanon was mentioned three times in Article One of the MOU between the US and Iran and in one instance, talks about the territorial integrity of Lebanon.
“So I’m guessing the Iranians were talking with the Americans not only about a ceasefire … but also about an Israeli withdrawal [of Lebanon]. Whether that’s a complete withdrawal, whether that’s a partial withdrawal, I don’t know,” he said.
“But when we talk about territorial integrity, we’re talking about Israeli occupation. I think this is a serious issue for the Iranians… and also I think they view this as a test of whether or not the US is serious and whether or not the US is willing to use its leverage over Israel,” he added.

Lol.
Trump faces Israeli anger over Iran dealThe growing rift between the US and Israel hit new heights this week, with articles published in major Israeli publications accusing President Donald Trump of abandoning Israel to its greatest enemy following his interim deal with Iran.
Analysts described a sense of betrayal as public and political outrage over the terms of the agreement, which details the broad terms for ending the joint US-Israeli war on Iran, dominated headlines.
In one particularly blistering attack, an op-ed titled “You could have been the greatest president of all, but you failed” accused Trump of having signed a “surrender agreement with a murderous and cruel terror regime”.
Published in one of the country’s leading newspapers, Israel Hayom, which is owned by influential Trump mega-donor Miriam Adelson, the piece pulled few punches.
<…https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/6/20/you-could-have-been-the-greatest-trump-faces-israeli-anger-over-iran-dealIsraeli strike kills Al Jazeera cameraman in central GazaAhmed Wishah has been killed in an Israeli air strike that targeted a house in the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza.
Al Jazeera, in a statement, said it “strongly condemns the heinous crime of targeting and killing” the Al Jazeera Mubasher correspondent.
“This constitutes a new and flagrant violation of all international laws and norms, and reflects a continued systematic policy of targeting journalists and silencing the voice of truth,” the statement added.
At least 10 people were killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza today.

>>2845659>they continuously claim that Iran didn't win, US didn't lose, and if it did, it wasn't good, because proles o algoTheir goal is to relentlessly remind us that nothing good ever happens and a better world isn't possible.
So is Israel gonna conquer all of Lebanon? They have like what, 10%? And they're digging in so it won't be taken back without a real ground army. Few more years of encroachments and double dealings until they can take it out like Gaza?
>>2845668Depends on whether the Americans will blink and start putting real pressure on them to withdraw so Hormuz will stay open.

>>2845823https://xcancel.com/AryJeayBackup/status/2068418956667617442❗️Full story behind betraying Iran’s leader, as narrated by @Khanalizadeh_EN
According to Khanalizadeh, a prominent Iranian journalist, after the Leader’s martyrdom, the US quickly asked for a ceasefire, which Iran naturally rejected.
After the new Leader was chosen, Iranian officials prepared a 5-point plan for talks with the US, but the Leader rejected it.
After several rounds of revision, a 10-point framework was produced, which became the basis of the first SNSC statement. The Leader also added 8 extra conditions to that framework, including that there should be no nuclear negotiations at all.
He says the US initially accepted those 10 points as the basis because it needed a ceasefire, but once the Iranian team reached Islamabad, the Americans refused to negotiate on that basis.
Despite the Leader’s written instruction, the Iranian side reportedly discussed the nuclear file.
This made the Americans conclude that Iran did not really want to continue the war, and that if they pushed hard, they could extract concessions.
After Islamabad, the negotiating team sent reports to the Leader.
The Leader reacted negatively and objected, saying they had acted against religious/legal duty by discussing the nuclear issue and by failing to impose the 10 conditions.
Some SNSC members then wrote to him, arguing that talks could not happen without the nuclear issue and warned about continued war and attacks on infrastructure.
The Leader replied that “these negotiations would benefit neither their worldly affairs nor their afterlife,” and would not prevent Iran’s infrastructure from being hit.
After that, the negotiating team restarted message exchanges, completely set aside the 10-point framework, and pursued a new 14-point plan initiated by the Foreign Ministry, which became the Islamabad MoU.
The SNSC approved it and sent it to the Leader, but he gave no answer for about 2 weeks.
SNSC officials then considered treating his silence as approval, but at that meeting a letter from the Leader arrived with questions for each SNSC member.
Each member answered, and officials gave written commitments explaining how the clauses would be interpreted and implemented.
One example given is that the “non-interference” clause (US not interfering in Iran’s affairs( would mean shutting down some hostile anti-propaganda media outlets (such as Iran International, ManotoTV, …).
Only after these written commitments did the Leader authorize the MoU.
Khanealizadeh says this is the context behind the Leader’s phrase: “I had a different view.”
The Leader was not merely opposed to parts of the final MoU; he was against the whole post-Islamabad negotiation path once it moved away from the original 10-point framework.
The process, according to him, went forward because of pressure and insistence from the SNSC.
>>2845814Yeah but I would celebrate an Iranian ship going down too.

>This war is not about some grand strategy or civilizational conflict
Nice try but comrade Cheney and Putin say otherwise
Incredible how people simply refuse to do any economic or materialist analysis of this war.
Do you guys think that the US going from biggest importer to net exporter of oil and gas over the past 20 years is just a nothingburger? That it has no affect on US politics and imperialist strategy?
The point of this war is to keep oil prices high because US oil can only be profitable above $60 price. It also has multiple side benefits - keeping Iran oil out of the market, which increases marketshare of both US and their Gulf partners (once those partners fix up their damage of course).
Its also why Iran went so hard on Gulf O&G infrastructure, including even "friendly" countries like Qatar. They know the game that is being played.
If oil reserves collapse and oil price spikes to $150 and $200, it's the US and Gulf that's gonna be the biggest winners. Venezuela is also gonna win, and that's precisely why they betrayed their "revolution" and joined the US empire. They saw what was gonna happen and decided to switch sides.
China, EU, India, Japan etc also see this happeneing and are going hard on renewable energies to limit the impact of oil prices. Since oil demand is going to decline over the coming decades, these kinds of wars and artificial price spikes are the only way to keep this industry profitable for many countries.
This war is not about some grand strategy or civilizational conflict, it's just a shameless war for profits and markets. This is what capitalism is, just shameless ugly profitseeking at the cost of the suffering of billions of people.
>>2846019Sorry, I reuploaded my post with some changes.
Why did people suddenly start talking about "civilizational states" in the last few years is this a Dugin thing or Chinese rhetoric to counter the "China doesn't exist" meme or what like yeah it's an older term apparently but I never heard it back in the day.

They don't understand the profit motive like a corporate manager would.
>>2846041Perhaps one day you will understand the Chinese government wants primarily two things: ensure their own country remains stable after centuries of chaos, and making a lot of money.
>>2846020The proxy war in Ukraine is also about maintaining the petro dollar. Its a stupid strategy as oil being more expensive is just going to accelerate the global renewable and nuclear markets. Fossil fuels are on the way out, even the fucking Saudis were trying to create a post oil economy by turning their country into a giant tourist trap. Blowing up Nordstream pipe line, blocking the strait of hormuz all so they can offload LNG on Europe for maybe another 5 years.
>>2846147hit me harder daddy
>>2846155Is it actually oil or do natural gas numbers get included here? We’ve been fossil fuel independent since the fracking revolution in the 2010s
>>2846160>PetrodollarDead the moment saudis started selling oils other than dollars. The deal was always the exclusivity of the dollar being used. No dollar monopoly, no petrodollar, even if most oil sales still use it
>>2846164The chart says "petroleum products", so it's only about oil, but you are right that fracking is also a huge thing now in America, despite its terrible ecological impacts. Blowing up Nordstream was indeed to make sure the EU wouldn't relax sanctions against Russia and buy natural gas to the US instead.
>>2846020>If oil reserves collapse and oil price spikes to $150 and $200, it's the US and Gulf that's gonna be the biggest winners.are you leaving out Russia on purpose? every time oil goes up they get an economic lifeline that finances anti-imperialism in ukraine
>>2846155>They don't understand the profit motive like a corporate manager would.if profit motives overruled every other bourgeois consideration than sanctions would not exist and the iranian conoco deal in 1995 wouldn't have been blocked by the state department

Something that seems radically different here is the negotiating team. What we've usually come to expect from such is the more 'liberal', reformist, western facing types. Feels like with the new leadership that is something that's fundamentally changed.
Iran’s top negotiator dismisses US threats, vows readiness to respondIran’s parliament speaker and head negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has dismissed US threats, saying Tehran is prepared to respond if necessary.
“Don’t they think to themselves that if their threats had any effect, they wouldn’t have reached the point of desperation they are in today? We don’t count on the American threats,” Ghalibaf posted on X.
“They better be careful with their comments, our armed forces are ready to respond in a different way. Whatever they say, we are the ones who will act.”
https://aje.news/tszhbk?update=4685560>>2846286>islamist hardliners: FDI is le neo colonialismThat's not what Khameini said. His main complaints were around negotiating the nuclear issue instead of maintaining Iran's right to enrich as it sees fit, plus sharing sovereignty of the strait with Oman instead of Iran holding it unilaterally. Insofar as he mentions financial issues at all its because he wants reparations paid and sections lifted even sooner rather than to be deferred pending further negotiations.

Behind the scenes wheeling and dealing at BurgenstockThe Pakistani delegation came back after holding talks with the Iranian foreign minister.
This is after there had been a pause in the talks. We believe that there is behind-the-scenes wheeling and dealing that is going on.
We were told by sources that the Iranian delegation came and conveyed their reservations to the Qatari delegation, which is now working to try and resolve all of the issues that they have.
It is high drama in one of the world’s highest-stakes diplomatic exercises right now here in Burgenstock.
We were told by various delegates that the biggest impediment to this process remains Israel because the Lebanon issue is something which is existential for Iran, because it does not want to separate it from all of its files.
There’s going to be sessions on the Strait of Hormuz, a session on the nuclear programme, restrictions and a separate session on Lebanon.
We believe that there are some serious issues that the Iranians want resolved before they can proceed. What they want to see the Americans do is abide by the agreement. It is a US ally that is not abiding by this agreement
https://aje.news/tszhbk?update=4686015Trump to blame for Strait of Hormuz closure, German minister saysGermany’s Defence Minister has blamed the US president for the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
“Ultimately, the cork in the bottleneck of the Strait of Hormuz was pushed in by Donald Trump, not by us, but we have an interest in getting it out again,” Boris Pistorius said in an interview with ARD.
Tehran had agreed to reopen it under a preliminary accord signed by Trump and his Iranian counterpart Pezeshkian, and shipping traffic had begun to recover. But on Saturday, Iran said it was once again closing the vital waterway because of Israeli attacks in Lebanon.
“The opening of the Strait of Hormuz, or rather safe passage through it, is in Europe’s interest, in the interest of our energy supply and our economic recovery,” Pistorius said
https://aje.news/tszhbk?update=4685709 >>2846356>Germany’s Defence Minister has blamed the US president for the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.oh damn. blumpf isn't gonna like that
>>2846356>cuckmany can't call out israel <i-its le trumpflole
>>2846356>Germans outright contradicting TrumpNever thought I'd see the day
>>2846431>>2846356Can only imagine the reason is that the Germans have calculated that open diplomatic conflict with the Americans is preferable to the consequences of enduring the economic hardship they'll face if Trump maintains his position on the strait
Schizo thread
>>2846424should've told it to translate to human language
Here’s what happened todayHere’s a recap of the day’s main developments:
<-Talks between the US and Iran took place in Burgenstock, Switzerland, mediated by Pakistan and Qatar.>-Trump, who is not attending the talks, said that “we’ll hit Iran very hard again” if they don’t “immediately stop their highly paid PROXIES in Lebanon from causing trouble”.<-Iran’s chief negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, responded on X that “we don’t count on the American threats”.>-Hussein Gurbanzadeh, a member of Iran’s negotiating team, told state television that the first day of talks covered frozen assets and oil sanctions relief.<-Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz said Israeli forces will not withdraw from the Beaufort Castle area in southern Lebanon.Israeli forces killed nine people in Gaza.
https://aje.news/tszhbk?update=4686371 >>2846624Anyone placing bets on whether Trump backstabs Israel completely and dumps them to end the war?
>>2846633that's never gonna happen
>>2846638>>2846685Not saying it’s likely, but at the same time it might be an “only Nixon can go to China” thing. I think Trump has just a monomaniacal drive to swindle people.
mf had to draw a fake post in mspaint lmao
>>2846624I am pretty sure the Iranian delegation left Switzerland.

I have a question for the campoids. Why do none of you ever call for abolition of money and commodity production in fully developed countries?
Like ok let's say we accept that third world countries shouldn't do that now. What's your excuse for not supporting it in first world countries?
Campoid politics only ever seem to be supporting social democrats, federal agents like Maoists or Anarchists, or irrelevant idpol.
Why are there no major campoid figures who talk about abolishing money and commodity production. Why don't campoids discuss how to do this in first world countries?
I LIVE IN THE IRANIAN MCDONALDS ASK ME ANYTHING
Is it because doing so in first world countries would harm the exports of the third world countries you're a nationalist of?
>>2846091That's Thomas Sowell
>>2846768>Why don't campoids discuss how to do this in first world countries?Because they don't want to, and we can't force them? Are you retarded?
>>2846775No I'm talking about the rhetoric tactics and propaganda of campoids in first world. Not about the actual behavior of the working class.
Which campoid influencer or politician talk about the need for abolishing money, commodity production as the actual program?
You don't seem to understand, THAT is the actual program. Not social democracy or state owned companies or some other retardation.
Campoid """communists""" don't spend even 1% of their time actually propagandising and talking about COMMUNISM
>>2846775Also the working class doesn't want North Korea or Cuba style economy either, doesn't stop campoids from glazing them.
Some workers do want China style national mercantilist economy with minimal immigration but those workers are called fascist by the same campoids who glaze China.
>>2846778>>2846777Because, having the misfortune of living in the real world, it's completely and utterly useless to talk about the end of the journey, when we barely fucking started.
Not that I ever believed Leftcoms ever took any of this shit seriously.
>>2846780Abolishing money and commodity production is not "the end of the journey", the conditions for communism was already possible in developed countries a century ago.
See this is what I mean, you straight up deny communism when actually pushed about your beliefs. Always the sleight of hand "oh it's impossible now for arbitrary reasons that we never justify".
I don't understand how people can't see the obvious fed shit of "oh we can't do communism it's impossible let's either do nothing or vote Socdem or do adventurism".
Anything but communism. Also you didn't actually answer the question. NO campoid actually advocates for the communist program.
And the reason is that you're a nationalist who understands that an actual communist revolution would hurt the nationalism of whatever thirdoid country or ethnicity or religion you glaze.
>>2846780You can't even start a journey if you don't know which direction you're going. NO campoid even TALKS about abolishing money and commodity production, and how to proceed doing it.
>>2846781>>2846782If only economic sophistication didn't change last century. Good luck having a good economy without hydrocarbons or rare earths.
The purpose of a thing is what it does.
The purpose of leftoidism is to support social democracy, divisive idpol, fed anticommunist ideologies, deny the possibility of communism, delay communism, create confusion about what to do, and never talk about what the actual communist program is so that workers remain in the dark forever.
>>2846772>I AM STALINIST CAMPOID FROM IRAN I LIVE IN IRANIAN MCDONALDS ASK ME ANYTHINGAre you lovin it
>>2846784Ahahhahahahab there it is. "Hydrocarbons and rare earths are why we can't even TALK about the communist program".
Amazing shameless opportunism and lying from leftoids.
You have no program beyond social democracy that is the beginning and end of your actual program.
>>2846789>>2846785A leftcom will always tell you when you're doing communism too slow, but will never show you how himself.
Still absolutely hilarious that Israel can't fucking help themselves and shit all over the ceasefire mere hours after the MoU was signed by immediately bombing Lebanon. Then the chosenites have the absolute GALL to cry about how Trump "betrayed" them.
Sorry for interrupting the mandatory argument on who should be doing revolutionary defeatism that still isn't going anywhere.
>>2846799Skibidyglowie wouldnt say this
Jewish terrorism is the greatest threat to humanity
>>2846768>Why do none of you ever call for abolition of moneyBecause Marx called for that but then invested all his money in the London stock exchange and actions > words so we're just following in the footsteps of Marx himself (pbuh). Socialist commodity production, socialist stock markets, and socialist money will all exist under Communism as well.
>>2846848<practice adventurism lolno
>>2846849Marx paid taxes = he supports class soyiety
>>2846851Ok, build a party and *then* blow up a factory, then it won't be adventurism
Marx smoked.
I will smoke.
I will be a Marxist.

Marx golfed.
>>2846870>unfortunate almost like workers on both sides are victims of war by design o algo
>>2846768best thing abiut these threads is leftcoms arguing with an imaginary character they came up with in their heads
>>2846876genuinely all leftcom arguments here are debating non existant questions, its pure idealism, for example:
>reeee why are you supporting iran instead of the hecking communists there?1, no one on an anonymous imageboard has the actual power to support any country, and 2, there are no communists in iran, the situation as it exists in the real material world is that the islamic republic is fighting for their national interests agaisnt the united states, and good for them, if i was iranian id be hoping that my government would come out on top because itd be better off for me
>there are no communists in the country with one of the most organized labor movements in the world
muh noble savage
If western leftards possessed %1 of the backbone Iranian proles have then we would be living under communism. It's an injustice that the courageous falls while the coward lives.
>>2846880Labour movement doesn’t equal communist movement
>>2846879Nobody here cares about 'leftcoms', faggot. This is the /iran/ thread.
>>>/Siberia/ >>2846889if you followed the thread youd know theres like 2-3 leftcom posters here constantly seething

>>2846796Every single one of the Epsteinites need to be glassed
>>2846799they do be like that
>>2846886arak soviet status?
>>2846879>2, there are no communists in iranYour islamist friends work very hard in achieving that. Still, there are communists there, despite how much does it hurt you.
>>2846879Same logic could be applied to Nazi Germany btw
>>2846713I love seeing you MLuyghurs get frustrated and angry
Who is propagandizing people into calling themselves Left Communists? Who is teaching them to be this retarded?
>>2846962The reddit subreddit /r/Ultraleft, twitter and insta Leftcom pages, the biggest ICP actively recruits on the internet. Also the fact that some leftists eventually start thinking "hey why do we only keep supporting bourgeois dictatorships, when does our turn actually come?", and upon doing further research they become either Trots, anarkids or ideally leftcoms.
I mean let's face it, the "aura" of communism is rapidly degrading. All that modern leftism actually offers in practice is supporting infinity immigration and milquetoast socdems. China glazing doesn't put food on anyone's table. Cuba and Venezuela are cucking out. North Korea has only ever appealed to weirdos.
So people are looking for alternatives, and that's either fascism, or checking out of politics, or trotism, anarkoidism or leftcommunism.
>>2846945there are "communists" in iran like there are "communists" in the US.
In fact, by repressing those fuckers the theocracy actually makes the possibility of a successful socialist revolition in iran more likely.
Imagine how easy of a time Lenin would've had if the tsarists killed all the mensheviks, anarchists, SRs, etc.
>>2846768its because they are anti-communists that think anyone that opposes class collaboration outside the imperial core needs to be gunned down, pic related, they do away with the issue of communism in the first world via the eschatological delusion of third world porky destroying le west™
when you remove the schizophrenia they are just classic anti-communists and nothing else
>>2846768i support the abolition of money in western countries via nuclear bombing
>>2846970Also almost all leftcoms were former leftists. The path usually goes (apolitical/liberal) → (leftist) → (Leftcom)
So leftcoms are "inoculated" against leftism in a certain sense. It's impossible to convert us or convince us because we already used to be leftoids and spent months or years defending Stalin or Deng or whatever.
>>2846950same logic could be applied to fucking ancient greece, since you want to ignore historical context, too
>>2846945leftcoms need to come to terms with the fact that communism is irrelevant worldwide, revolutions dont happen out of nowhere, they need an organised working class with powerful organisations backing it, iran will
not have a socialist revolution in the coming decades just like most other countries
so when you defend the hypothetical revolution that doesnt actually exist youre just wasting your time instead of trying to understand the world as it currently exists
>>2846972>there are "communists" in iran like there are "communists" in the US.Oh the "western leftist" argument. Original.
>Imagine how easy of a time Lenin would've had if the tsarists killed all the mensheviks, anarchists, SRs, etc.Videogame logic lmao
Is BLACKED blocked in Iran?
The solution to the ML - LeftCom contradiction is to ban brazilians, brazilian MLs are the worst posters in the site.
>>2846984>leftcoms need to come to terms with the fact that communism is irrelevant worldwideFor a Cold War brain, it is. Not for people who actually see that communism doesn't arise with parties, elections and coups.
>>2846984>The working class being in a weak position means we have to defend the Iranian ruling classProletarian defeatism now, proletarian defeatism tomorrow, and proletarian defeatism forever
>>2846950No it couldn't, since Nazi Germany was an imperialist state at war with a socialist country.
>>2846993What socialist state?

>>2846997You're the one still seething about real socialism 100 years later m8. I'm sorry Lenin roasted you tards so bad.
>>2847001Lenin's been dead for 100 years bucko, now Russia is an oligarchy shithole.
>>2846996>name 1 country that could have a socialist revolution in the next 30 yearsany capitalist country
>>2846996Workers shouldn't ally with their ruling class and communists shouldn't encourage this class collaboration. The working class must create its own independent movement that is opposed to both it's ruling class and the invaders. The defense of the nation is not an existential concern for the working class, it's only something that the ruling class is worried about.
Both the American ruling class and Iranian ruling class are united in suppressing Iranian workers. If Iranian workers rebel too much as an independent working class movement (rather than simply on the behalf of opportunist parties), the US will bomb them to help out the Iranian ruling class.
>>2846988I think all porn is blocked in Iran buddy
>>2847002Damn you're right, can you point me to the successful leftcom revolution so I can study that instead?
>>2847010>The defense of the nation is not an existential concern for the working class, it's only something that the ruling class is worried about. It is if they are facing colonial subjugation. A statement like this is tantamount to denying the existence of colonialism.
>>2847010>Workers shouldn't ally with their ruling classBut the Iranian proletariat factually has taken the side of the Iranian government so you have to work with that
>>2847012There hasn't been a sucessful communst revolution yet. It isn't an argument tho. Ypu cpudl say the same about liberalism in 1726.

>>2846972>there are "communists" in irancorrect they're one of the strongest social force in that country and one of the most organized in the entire world, which makes you jealous being the classcuck that you are
>like there are "communists" in the US.Sorry timmy, supporting CIA installed theocracy against brown workers doesn't constitute being communist.
Also the theocracy already cleansed the MLib Tudeh party so all that remains in Iran are communists ("ultras")
>>2847001>Lenin roasted youThis is the 3rd time you claim this then change the subject when I ask you to quote him doing so not merely refer to the title of a book referring to a different tendency
You won't ever quote "Lenin dunking on ultras" because Lenin was a communist (ultra)
>>2847019>the Iranian proletariat factually has taken the side of the Iranian governmentThat's why they killed thousands of them before the US joined in to kill the rest
everytime the leftcoms post, discussion of the war and its consequences gets derailed, simply refuse to engage with sharty-tier posters and the problem will wither away
>>2847046>its consequencesThe general literally cheers every time an oil worker gets bombed in the gulf while ignoring the slaughter of thousands of Iranian workers
When has the inter-imperialist war and its consequances on the working class EVER been discussed in this campist shithole?
>>2847010except people dont want to be bombed, simple as.
>>2847046>discussion of the war and its consequences gets derailedWell yes, why bother putting in the effort if the jannies cannot be bothered to do the bare minimum of moderation, if retards like sabo and other Anons engage them in bickering faggotry for days at a time.
>>2847044>That's why they killed thousands of them before the US joined in to kill the rest1.That was before the war when people united against America
2.It wasn’t representative of the proletariat and many of the protesters and terrorists were petty bourgeois
3.The U.S. did not “join in to kill them” Iran and America aren’t on the same side
4.Whatever number of civilians you think died I can guarantee it’s and overestimate
>correct they're one of the strongest social force in that country and one of the most organized in the entire world, which makes you jealous being the classcuck that you areProvide evidence for that
>Also the theocracy already cleansed the MLib Tudeh partyWhat a disgusting way to refer to the murder and arrest of communists, maybe you should think about the reason why state power hasn’t been used against left communists this century but it is on the daily for what you refer to “mlibs”
Also the funny little wojak meme you attached depicts events that never happened and you will struggle and beg to convince me they did in your next few posts
>>2847050
The tudeh party is being propped up by the EU lmao. Not that leftcoms know anything besides being propped up by fascists

>>2847058idk how MLs here expect to defeat amerikkka if they get panic attacks when they see a soyjak on their screen
>>2847016>A statement like this is tantamount to denying the existence of colonialism.you mean how tankiddies were denying the colonial nature of 300 billion in investments until islamist hardliners called them out?
>>2847058>>Le sharty boogeyman Is it impossible for you to take any of this seriously? Soyjak party is a hub and breeding ground for racist murderers the fact that left “communists” insist on using incredibly unfunny Sharty jokes is not lost on me and I don’t think it’s lost on most people.
Also btw it doesn’t matter how much you use there words they will never respect you because you will always be a commie to them, the fact you want there respect is pretty pathetic.
>>2847073Bordigas greatest accomplishment was being treated nicely by the Italian fascist machine
>>2847077Calling out Sharty cringe doesn’t mean people are scared of soyjaks lol. The real questions is why left communists think they will defeat capitalism when they can’t even go outside.
>>2847087Do you genuinely think any "anti campist" here has any sincerely held leftist belief? None of them ever have anything meaningful to say outside of incessant derailment
>>2847088>>2847073Leftcoms are fascists because the Two Red Years united the ruling class and gave rise to fascism, I'm very smart.
>>2847095>leftist beliefsee
>>2846785 >>2847097See this is a great example. He's not even responding to what I'm saying, just deflecting. This guy isn't even a bordigist, he's not interested in defending left-communism, it's just a vehicle for him to bitch about other leftists
>>2846800"Campists" want to appease the new liberal order and buy their place in it. While "anti-campists" would rather continue being the useless opposition to the existing order of things. Either way, you are all going to get shit on for decades, as long as this cold war lasts, to support the rate of profit.
Because there is no "left" in global affairs. And if you think socialism is going to emerge from the worsening conditions… well those are gonna be the worsening conditions of the most privileged people on earth who have a much shorter path to reinstating that privilege than revolution.
IMO two things are guaranteed:
-By the time the cold war is settled nobody will care about these sorts of things anyway.
-The new world economic order will be capitalist.
>>2847106>le campoids!<le anti-campoids!!I promise you a very small % of the user-base cares. Most of us just want to share news and discuss events. Must you shit up every thread with this faggoty slap-fight?
>>2846785>The purpose of a thing is what it does. By that logic we should abandon Marxism since Marx predicted the world would be communist by now, it isn’t so we should throw Marxism out. Stupid right?
Also let’s make one thing very clear the only communist movement to day is the MLM one if you truly believe that “leftoidism” (again with the shartyisms you guys are school shooters in the making no wonder you believe in such a revolting set of truisms) only exists to stop the communist movement then must believe there is one to stop, can you show it? The only left “communists” today are PB kids on Twitter. So it’s a subconscious admission that MLM is communist and correct and in need of crushing.

Fully automated luxury gay space communism status?

>>2847085Except that isn't what happened at all. Khameinei criticized the MoU for not settling the nuclear issue and sharing sovereignty of the strait with Oman. His criticism only mentioned the financial issues to say that he wanted immediate sanction relief and unfreezing of assets. In other words he was pissed because the Islamabad deal didn't open Iran to international markets and investment quickly enough. At any rate its a moronic point you're trying to make. Do you unironically consider all trade and investment to be colonialism? I used to work for an Indian company that owns factories in Canada. Does this mean India is Canada's colonial master?
>>2847198And climate change
>>2847198Capitalism as Marx understood it as a mode of production has been dead since great depression and WW1.
>>2847215I'm not even saying we have new and better, immortal capitalism that stupid commies don't understand. It just means that we live in socialism (bourgeoisie socialism) the struggle is mainly political, not mainly about development of productive forces.
You look at mutt economy and you'll see a bunch of monopolies that exist intertwined with the state and political power and are literally unable to exist without the state. The profit motive or allocation by market is literally a thing of the past and it's appearance only acted out so rich bastards at the top can have plausible deniability and tell a story about how they deserve to take all that surplus.

>>2847198i think we're gonna regress to a form of feudalism. given the unprecedented amount of control over peoples lives that modern information technology gives and the fact that practically everything in peoples lives is now rented, i think capitalism will transition into a first de-facto feudalism which will down the line be formalized
>>2847226>i think we're gonna regress to a form of feudalismThat’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works.
>>2847225mode of production is already socialist. Sorry if I undermine your self image as noble crusader against the wicked world. Nobody ever said socialism was going to be always fun and you on the top.
>>2847226>We are gonna regress to a form of feudalismThis is actually retarded take.
>>2847229>mode of production is already socialistGenuine brain death. Did you abolish money, class, state? No. And despite your delusions, the bourgeoisie is not interested in socialism, they are interested in fucking over the working class for decadence.
>>2847227but it is. in history nations did not all at once irreversibly move to capitalism. they would transition partially then regress though they could not prevent the economic change that the technological breakthrough of their time enabled. marx could not predict the advent of information technology and the way it would affect peoples lives. economic and political cconstraints already tie most people to land and a certain type of work, workforces around the world are already de facto held captive and kept in a certain bracket of economic destitution, it is a de facto feudalism. the general population of certain nations have been able to avoid this situation because of their relative economic affluence however, they are being squeezed as the contradictions of capitalism worsen. its just that in this time of crisis a transition to communism is not a certainty, more likely, given how passive and atomized they are, is that they are slowly lowered to a similar de facto serf status. of course the whole process will be gradual.
>>2847232>economic and political cconstraints already tie most people to land and a certain type of work, workforces around the world are already de facto held captive and kept in a certain bracket of economic destitution, it is a de facto feudalismCapitalism has dramatically increased the mobility of labour though. The entire US agricultural sector would collapse if it couldn't rely on migrant labour, migrants which are specifically intended to be temporary. This is also true of Canada and to some extent the EU.
>>2847235indeed. and they are brutally cracking down on it with the aid of information technology and their ever more sophisticated surveillance states.

>they would transition partially then regress partially then regress though they could not prevent the economic change that the technological breakthrough of their time enabledRegression? No. Rubberbanding? Yes. Progress is made regardless.
>marx could not predictHe did not need to
>economic and political cconstraints already tie most people to land and a certain type of workLand? Work? No, they seize everything from the proletariat until they are abolished wholesale. You leaving out the material conditions that have made urban populations more prevalent than rural populations has not gone unnoticed either.
>workforces around the world are already de facto held captive and kept in a certain bracket of economic destitution, it is a de facto feudalismIt is the propertyless state of the proletariat Marx has already spoken of, something you have missed.
>We have proceeded from the premises of political economy. We have accepted its language and its laws. We presupposed private property, the separation of labor, capital and land, and of wages, profit of capital and rent of land – likewise division of labor, competition, the concept of exchange value, etc. On the basis of political economy itself, in its own words, we have shown that the worker sinks to the level of a commodity and becomes indeed the most wretched of commodities; that the wretchedness of the worker is in inverse proportion to the power and magnitude of his production; that the necessary result of competition is the accumulation of capital in a few hands, and thus the restoration of monopoly in a more terrible form; and that finally the distinction between capitalist and land rentier, like that between the tiller of the soil and the factory worker, disappears and that the whole of society must fall apart into the two classes – property owners and propertyless workerhttps://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1844/manuscripts/labour.htm>its just that in this time of crisis a transition to communism is not a certainty, more likely, given how passive and atomized they are, is that they are slowly lowered to a similar de facto serf status.They have been commodified, not transitioned into serf status.
>>2847230you are speaking of pie in the sky, higher state of socialism (communism). What made you to jump to the conclusion that I was speaking that we are in an end of history, state, class, end of money situation here?

>>2847251>higher state of socialism (communism)>lower stage of socialismThere is no such thing. Communism and socialism are entirely synonymous. The dotp does not count either, as it is still a transitional within the bounds of the capitalist mode of production.

60-day suspension of the oil embargo
Real score or poison pear?
Iran's oil embargo has been suspended for 60 days until the end of August;
In exchange for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the inspection of Iran's nuclear sites by IAEA spies.
But why is this dangerous?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about the strait and nuclear.
Earlier, J.D. Vance, Trump's deputy, announced that the suspension of sanctions is not considered a concession for Iran because;
Firstly, the sanctions have become ineffective, and secondly, during the suspension period, the US will have the opportunity to identify the financial network related to the sale of Iranian oil and implement more effective sanctions after 60 days.
In response, some supporters of the medical government have claimed that Vance's words have political uses in America and are not true. But past experience confirms Vance's claim.
First of all, the statement that sanctions have become ineffective is true. Because according to Kepler Institute statistics, despite the maximum pressure of 2 and applying more than 1,000 new sanctions against Iran, the current Trump administration has not been able to stop Iran's oil exports to China.
Last year, Iran's oil sales figure was about 1.6 million barrels per day. Although this figure is still a little far from reaching the sales record in the pre-sanctions period, this gap is also due to the sabotage of the government in increasing oil production and the failure of the plan to increase oil production by 400,000 barrels per day.
Otherwise, whatever oil Iran produces, the Chinese will buy it, and even in 2024, they have become the largest exporter of oil to China by sea.
Even the Chinese recently did not recognize the embargo on their 5 major refineries due to the purchase of Iranian oil and communicated the non-compliance of the American embargo to their related institutions.
Secondly, the suspension of sanctions has led to the identification of Iran's oil sales network, which has already been experienced in the case of the JCPOA.
In an interview with Mehr news agency on 15th of February 2018, Seyed Mohsen Qomsari, the director of international affairs of Naft Company in the Rouhani administration, mentioned the exposure of the exchange network of Iran during the implementation of the JCPOA and the suspension of sanctions.
As you can see in the graph, Iran's oil sales before the JCPOA was 1.4 million barrels per day, but with the withdrawal of the United States from the JCPOA, it will not return to the former 1.4 million barrels and will fall below 200,000 barrels.
Now why did this happen even before the spread of Corona? Because during the JCPOA period, using the transparency created by the suspension of sanctions, America was able to identify the ways to circumvent the sanctions by Iran and apply the sanctions more effectively.
As a result of this incident, the increase in Iran's oil sales during the JCPOA period was completely neutralized by the fall in sales in the period after that.
On the other hand, this 60-day suspension is such a short period of time that Iran can only sell oil to China, which it is already selling, and it does not have a chance to diversify the market, for example, to sell oil to Europe, because until Iran markets and the shipments arrive and the money returns, the 60 days are practically over and either the oil will not be exported or the money will be blocked.
As a result of experience, evidence and statistics show that Vance's words seem to be correct and the suspension of sanctions for a short period of time, considering the malicious intentions of America, will cost Iran more than its benefits.
https://nitter.poast.org/sehsanhosseini/status/2069079976226226592#m>>2847615>getting rid of leftcoms>their jobsI have bad news for you.
Long story short, you treat their retardation as sincere and unpaid.
>>2848338>Iran's oil embargo has been suspended for 60 days until the end of August;In exchange for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the inspection of Iran's nuclear sites by IAEA spies.
The lifting of sanctions is a prerequisite for signing the MOU, not a concession traded in exchange for anything.
>this is just a trick to sanction them moreThat doesn't make any sense. They've already sanction-proofed themselves, which is why maximum sanctions aren't working. They've tried enhanced maximum oversanctions with Russia and it still didn't have the desired effect. At a certain point, the gas whatever country is buying is going to be worth more than whatever penalties the US threatens them with, especially in the face of this impending fuel crisis.
>>2847296>any cheering for victory or defeat is no different from treating political economy as a futbol fucking world cup.the problem is they confuse geopolikirks with political economy therefore its natural they don't take it seriously after so many nothingburgers and cuck outs by retarded bourgeois states everyone here loves
>>2848361The piece is cover for the administration
The entire deal is a loss for the US which the Israelis will continue to press to their advantage. Vance along with Trump are impotent in the situation, pushed between an Israeli lobby and the capacity for the Israelis to effectively shut down global economic growth

HTS has increased its shipments to the Lebanese border.The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) announced that Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) has increased its military activity and forces in areas such as the western rural areas of Homs along the Lebanese border, the Damascus countryside, and Tartus. SOHR stated that military deployments are concentrated in the Qusayr region and border villages of Tal Kalaf, Shahid Zebedani, and Jaroud Qalamoun.
Military activity was also observed in the Akkar region near Lebanon's northern border. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) noted the transfer of heavy weapons and military vehicles from the eastern Aleppo countryside to border points in the Homs countryside. This move, it was stated, indicates that Syria is strengthening its military presence along its border with Lebanon.

https://thecradle.co/articles/iran-pushing-to-end-israels-genocide-in-gaza-during-talks-with-us-hamasIran pushing to end Israel's genocide in Gaza during talks with US: Hamas
>Senior Hamas official Bassem Naim held a call with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on 23 June, the Palestinian resistance group announced in an official statement.
>“Araghchi expressed his gratitude for the call and for Hamas’s supportive position, affirming that the Islamic Republic will continue supporting the Palestinian people and their just cause until the full realization of their legitimate national rights,” the statement said.
>It added that Araghchi told the resistance movement that “Iranian leadership, represented by the negotiating delegation, continues to raise the issue of the ongoing Israeli aggression against Gaza, the occupation’s continuing violations, and what he describes as ongoing genocide.”
>According to the Hamas statement, Araghchi affirmed that Iran was pushing for an end to genocide “in all international forums” as well as in “current negotiations.”
>He also renewed the call for serious international action “to protect the Palestinian people and compel Israel to halt its aggression and its plans aimed at eliminating the Palestinian presence on its land, particularly in the Gaza Strip.”
>Over 1,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli attacks since the so-called truce was reached in Gaza in October 2025.
>Israeli forces have expanded their occupation across most of the besieged strip since the US-sponsored agreement took effect.
>Scores of permanent outposts have been erected, and Tel Aviv continues to hinder the flow of aid into Gaza.
>Tehran has also prioritized securing a comprehensive ceasefire and Israeli withdrawal in Lebanon as part of the memorandum of understanding (MoU).
>The Islamic Republic bombarded Israel with ballistic missiles earlier this month in response to a strike on Beirut, and has warned of further measures if violations persist.
>The official text of the US–Iran MoU specifically demands not only an end to the war in Lebanon but “on all fronts.”
>The first round of technical talks between the US and Iran – marking the start of a 60-day negotiation period by which a final deal should be reached – ended this week.

this ceasefire and these peace negotiations have been a disaster for Iran. they gave up all their leverage. israel continues it's aggression in lebanon, gaza, and the west bank. oil prices are back to pre war prices. if iran resumes fighting public opinion will not be on their side anymore.
>>2851047Thank you for doing the report list ModAnon, i really appreciate that.
Trump’s response to Iranian drone attack ‘subdued’What is very interesting is that these attacks occurred a while ago. In the last few hours, Trump has been putting out messages on his social media, but all are about domestic issues, about ICE and the faults of his predecessors.
It’s only now, within the last few minutes, that he decided to respond directly to this Iranian action.
It’s also, by Trump’s terms, a somewhat subdued message. Normally, there is much more anger involved. But it is at the same time a pretty strong warning from the president about the dangers of violating the ceasefire agreement.
The tone is very important, and with a lot of Trump’s social messages, the intent and the impact can be gauged by the tone of it, and this is a somewhat restrained tone by Trump’s terms.
https://aje.news/u17qv3?update=4704887What do Israel and Lebanon want to gain from US talks?Throughout the course of these talks, there’s been a lot of contradictory rhetoric. It’s been very difficult to read the room in terms of how these different delegations have been feeling.
On the one hand, there has been this sense of optimism, especially from US officials, that forward momentum has been made. Just the simple fact that these talks continue to happen is largely seen as a success in and of itself.
But it doesn’t take an expert in diplomatic policy to see that some of the rhetoric that we’ve heard since the very beginning of these talks has been very concerning.
On the political track, it’s about stabilising the relationship between two countries that, outside of this building, don’t have a formal diplomatic relationship. And on the military track, it’s about lessening tensions to prevent a spillover and a scenario that could … drag the US into a wider, broader regional conflict.
For Lebanon, they want a full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanese territory. For Israel, the sticking point is that any sort of withdrawal has to be contingent on the full disarmament of Hezbollah and an assurance that Hezbollah would not be able to re-establish a military presence along the Israeli-Lebanese border.
https://aje.news/u17qv3?update=4704644‘Iran will keep leveraging Strait of Hormuz until MoU fully implemented’Iran is aiming to retain control of the Strait of Hormuz to ensure it has the ability to shut the shipping channel again if parts of the deal with the US are not upheld, Hamid Reza Gholamzadeh, director of Diplo House in Tehran, tells Al Jazeera.
The waterway is the “most important and maybe the only leverage to contain the Americans and have some practical results on the MoU,” the analyst said.
He added that Iran would want to see all issues in the MoU resolved before allowing free passage of all vessels.
One issue Iran wants to see progress on is Lebanon, where Israeli troops are still stationed and waging war.
“The Americans do not seem to be serious in following [up on that commitment],” which is why Tehran must retain its ability to put pressure on the US, he added.
https://aje.news/u17qv3?update=4704573 iran needs to stop pussyfooting around. block the strait completely. sink a few USA tankers. drive the price of oil up to 200
Watching oil bulls getting cucked on their positions and crying about market manipulation has been delicious. Anyone with a brain knows that oil is undergoing secular decline along with a massive glut as Venezuela and Guyana ramp up.
EVs, heat pumps, green ammonia, plastic alternatives. At 500Wh/kg, short and medium haul flights will get electrified. At 700 Wh/kg, ships go electric.
Projected consumption in 2050 ranges from 50-80mbd, down from 102 mbd today, while production costs continue to fall with improved tech. We could see a stable $40/barrel by then.
>>2851290Iran won and the US is coping.
>>2851290I mean, it could've been a major happooning. I think it was right to be a little alarmed in the beginning. Nice it looks like everything is working out for the moment. Maybe it was because of us losing mental health over it that made it stop. On this conspiracy forum, GLP, there is always people coming in and making some prediction that some crazy bad event will happen on X date, and then the date comes and goes of course without happening and everyone jokes: "The GLP effect strikes again" or something like that about how the fact that they warned everyone on GLP caused it to not happen lol.
Anyways, picrel is the latest.
>>2851349>Maybe it was because of us losing mental health over it that made it stop.Okay, calm down. Breathe. Idealism is still bullshit. You are not casting spells here.
>>2851357You calm down, I was making a joke. Why do you always post like you got a stick up your ass? You're like one of the most obsessed happenings fags here.
But I do actually think paying attention to what's happening does have an effect on popular opinion. It's easy to just ignore the news as many normies do. But if nobody is even aware of going on then nobody can spread awareness and public opinion can't shift or be formed in the first place.
I like how IRGC mouthpiece like the diasporafag with glasses now bring up Iran-US collaboration in Iraq and Afghanistan as a talking point against Iran being the aggressor kek
>>2851343Yes I figured that.
>>2851349I think America just wanted to try the russian roulette of special military operation, but it sucked more ass than what cucktin pulled off.
https://www.iranintl.com/en/202606155238They got cold feet and pussied out because america is too individualistic to take on sacrifices. Maybe that is a good thing as the imperial power is incapable of maintaining the power. Like a dialectic of sorts.

>With the signing of this agreement, both parties—the United States and Iran—have presented themselves as the victors of the war. The agreement was signed in both Persian and English in order to minimise the scope for differing interpretations arising from translation. In effect, the signing of this agreement may be regarded as a form of success for the ruling class on both sides in this imperialist war. This “success” does not stem from the military achievements claimed by the belligerent powers; rather, it derives from the fact that the war, despite its scale, did not encounter organised and decisive resistance from the working class internationally.
IRANIAN COMMIE TRUKEEEEE
https://en.internationalistvoice.org/beyond-war-and-memorandums-of-understanding-capitalism-the-source-of-imperialist-war/
>why was war deemed necessary?>The answer should not be sought in the will of this or that political leader. The war is neither the product of Trump’s belligerence nor the result of decisions taken by the Islamic Republic’s hawkish leaders. Rather, it is a product of the logic of the capitalist system in its present phase. Within this framework, the avoidance of war in the epoch of capitalist decadence is, in practice, impossible.
>Within this framework, the position of the Islamic bourgeoisie within the global capitalist system has always been marked by fluctuations. These shifts have themselves been one of the sources of imperialist tensions. The acceptance of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in 2015 may be interpreted as a sign that the Western powers, particularly the United States, were prepared to recognise the regional role of the Islamic bourgeoisie. Conversely, the United States’ withdrawal from the JCPOA in 2018 indicated that Washington was no longer willing to accord the Islamic bourgeoisie the same position.
>If—and this “if” is of decisive importance—the current memorandum of understanding leads to a lasting agreement, it may be regarded as evidence of a renewed redefinition of the Islamic bourgeoisie’s place within the regional balance of power. In other words, such an agreement could indicate that the United States and its allies are once again prepared to recognise the Islamic bourgeoisie as a regional power. Nevertheless, even if such an agreement is reached, the fundamental roots of tension will not disappear, since the principal source of these conflicts lies in the imperialist rivalries generated by the global capitalist system itself. >>2851746Who cares about the working class, don't you like low brow propaganda and chauvinism?

>>2852688>Ok now this is getting beyond fucking ridiculous what the fuck is going on??Well first, it's the weekend past market closure. So of course Trump is escalating and trying to move the markets for them sweet insider trading hustles. We have had this same maneuver every other week.
Secondly, Iran is a cuck state worse than the RF (probably due to the power of religion) and will not invalidate the "ceasefire" agreement no matter what.
Not if the "ceasefire" means dismantling Hez by force.
Not if the "ceasefire" means bombing Lebanon/Yemen/Iraqi allies every other week.
Not if the "ceasefire" means glowops, assassinations or proxies in Iran.
Not if the "ceasefire" means rescinding every sanction waiver and most other commitments from the other side.
Because ultimately China has seen the US is not willing, perhaps not even able, to commit to taking Iran down for good. And China mandates that the oil flows again for it's own sake. And they, along the Iranian porky, call the shots.
Welcome to the resistance. Grab a chair and enjoy as NATO fucks your wife while a Chinese billionaire voyeur watches through a high powered scope, aimed at
you.

i read somewhere west will run out of oil in a few weeks
>>2852818USA wo't run out of oil. What will happen, though, is Russia-fication of USA, where they will gradually over decades turn into a gas station with nukes. USSR-style collapse is possible, too, as US government will be forced to cut costs at some point in time via cutting away and selling for cheap inefficient (compared to oil) industries.
Capitalism always leads to it's own downfall
>>2852826In the end, we sanctioned ourselves. With greed. Deep.
>>2852833>capitalism>greedYou are deeply misunderstanding Marx
>>2852833>>2852837As in, capitalism is never greed, all of it's bullshit is a NECESSITY at any point in time, at any situation, for capitalism itself to function. Saving US capitalism requires USA to transition into a petrodemocracy (but truthfully, it was always this, all of US development historically happened alongside oil lines), but saving it this way would necessarily demand sacrifices elsewhere, which will eventually lead to USA 1) warring all other petromonarchies 2) cut costs at home.
In Russia's 90s, there was a popular term "resource curse". Everyone talked about how having resources causes countries to be poor, and the only way to become rich was to get rid of resources, lmao
>>2852742>the oppositionThere is no opposition in Iraq. The green zone is an Islamist-only shithole as designed by the occupation's sectarian quota system. Every PM since 2005 has been approved by US and Iran, the current banker PM has been handpicked by the ACKsis and recommended Maliki himself.
Even bourgeois "opposition" (independent nationalists and socdems) are irrelevant.
>>2852700literally the thing I've done the most is read Marx and Lenin. that's the point of these threads oriented to a specific topic: for people who have read it can discuss global events and their impact on the working class and general class struggle.

so irrelevant, they made the us embassy to use cope cages.
>>2853164If by “Iranian communists” you mean “western backed French educated Trotskyites” then sure
>>2853164Even more funny is that some leftoid third-worldists supported the islamists, only to get slaughter after. No mercy for religious incels.
>>2853212If you ever see a retarded decision by third world leftists in the cold war, be assured the USSR is involved.
The USSR singlehandedly destroyed any hopes of communist movement in the middle east by enforcing class collaboration on all parties. We genuinely were better off without it ever existing.
so the peace deal is all the way off. the USA got to relieve pressure to its economy and Iran got jack shit.
Iran accuses US of violating Hormuz deal by seeking alternative shipping corridorIn his statements visiting Baghdad today, Iran’s FM Araghchi made clarifications about the Iranian stance regarding Hormuz.
He said that in Article 5 of the MoU, Iran is tasked with taking arrangements to ensure the free passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz for the 60 days of negotiations before arriving at a final agreement with the US which means that no ships can pass without coordinating with Iran.
There have been attempts, according to Iranian authorities, by the Americans to try to create another corridor.
Iran and Oman have been talking about coordinating the administration of the Strait of Hormuz after the 60 days of talks, and that’s going to be on a permanent basis.
But for now, according to Iranian officials, Article 5 gives Iran the sole responsibility and prerogative to stay in control of the Strait of Hormuz.

Israeli troops established a second checkpoint near the village of Sreyeh Jamlah in the western countryside of Deraa, 200 metres from another checkpoint installed yesterday.
At least five Israeli military vehicles moved into the village of Abidin, also in the western countryside of Deraa, where forces set up two checkpoints in the village and searched passers-by.

iran needs ramp up the pain on the USA again. they need to do a high profile attack that impacts the market. them closing the strait again kinda flew under the radar and the price of oil is still at 70 ish. they should never have opened the strait for that brief period.
>>2853957I think the are just waiting for the US to run out of oil. But it's hard to tell when that will even happen.
>>2853980The US itself is a major oil producer so it won't run out. Its more a question of other major economies like China or Europe running out, causing a global spike in prices.
>>2853987Is that still true despite the fact that we sell what we make and import all we consume? And we haven't pivoted from that at all.
>>2853862fucking awesome meme, is it ok if i save it?
>>2854022No. That will violate socialist intellectual property
>>2853987Fracking isn't sustainable long term, even less than regular oil wells.
>>2853996>>2854066It makes little difference anyway. The issue for the US isn't running out of oil, it's how the global spike in prices will impact the economy as a whole. Ironically the strait being closed is good for American oil porkies, it's just bad for everybody else including both capitalists and consumers.
>TEHRAN ON THE BRINK: Regime Collapse Forecasted for Mid-July as Resource "Thermal Lockout" Looms
>WASHINGTON, D.C. - The long-standing shadow war with the Islamic Republic of Iran is rapidly approaching a definitive conclusion, not through a final battlefield victory, but through the total internal disintegration of the regime. Intelligence analysts and energy experts now point to a critical "collapse window" between July 17th and 20th, as a catastrophic convergence of resource depletion and infrastructure failure renders the nation ungovernable.
>The "Thermal Lockout" Trigger
>While the regime has survived decades of sanctions, it cannot survive the laws of physics. Emerging reports suggest that Iran is facing a "Thermal Lockout" of its national energy grid. The South Pars gas field, which provides over 70% of the nation's energy, has reached a critical failure point following repeated strategic strikes and years of underinvestment.
>Experts predict that by July 17th, the peak summer heat will trigger an irreversible cooling failure in the aging turbines at the Asaluyeh processing plants. This will result in a permanent national blackout, cutting power to water desalination plants and hospitals. Without the ability to pump water or cool the population, the regime's security apparatus - the IRGC - will find its domestic control evaporated as millions are forced into the streets by the most basic of human needs: survival.
>A Nation in Liquidation
>The economic backdrop for this collapse is already in place. The Iranian rial has plummeted to a record low of nearly 2 million per U.S. dollar, with food inflation exceeding 140%. President Masoud Pezeshkian recently admitted the severity of the situation, noting that the government "could not export a single barrel of oil" for weeks and floating the desperate possibility of evacuating the capital due to "water bankruptcy."
>"They have a hunger problem, they have a food problem, they have a medicine problem," President Donald Trump stated in recent remarks, emphasizing that the "maximum pressure" campaign has finally hollowed out the regime's foundations.
>The July Deadline
>The specific July 17-20 window aligns with the forecasted depletion of Tehran’s final strategic water reservoirs. Once the taps run dry in the capital of 15 million, the administrative heart of the Islamic Republic will cease to function. Unlike previous uprisings, the 2026 crisis leaves the regime with no resources to bribe or fuel to transport its internal security forces.
>As the regime’s energy and water infrastructure enters a terminal death spiral, the threat of a regional war is being replaced by the reality of a domestic implosion. For the military and pro-stability advocates, the end of the "Iran problem" is no longer a matter of if, but a matter of weeks. By July 20th, the Islamic Republic as we know it will likely be a relic of history, collapsed under the weight of its own mismanagement and the relentless pressure of the free world.

https://bettbeat.substack.com/p/the-inside-job-why-no-one-is-really
>Three independent journalists join BettBeat for a conversation that the multipolarity discourse rarely has out loud: why no world leader, in any of the nations supposedly leading the resistance to US empire, is actually fighting it — and what the real mechanism of imperial control looks like once you stop expecting heroes.
>The discussion begins with the recent Memorandum of Understanding being pursued by Iranian reformists, and what it reveals about the willingness of significant factions within the political class in Tehran to integrate economically with the very imperial system the state publicly resists. From there, the conversation widens. Why has Moscow, despite the rhetoric of confrontation, continued to operate within the financial, diplomatic, and economic architecture of the Western-led order? Why has Beijing, the supposed pole of the new multipolar world, repeatedly declined to take any action that would meaningfully threaten US imperial reach? Why does every BRICS summit produce communiqués and no consequences?
>The panel’s answer is uncomfortable but coherent. Empire does not conquer primarily through invasion. It conquers through integration — through the cultivation of domestic factions in every targeted nation who have more to gain from joining the imperial economic system than from resisting it. These are the collaborators, the reformists, the comprador classes, the oligarchic structures that benefit from the very arrangements their own populations are told are being resisted. They exist in every nation, including the ones the anti-imperial audience has been told to root for.
>This is a hard conversation for the left-anti-imperial space because it refuses the comfort of a heroic counter-pole. There is no nation currently fighting empire in the way the rhetoric of multipolarity suggests. There are only nations with stronger or weaker collaborator classes, and at present, the collaborator classes are winning almost everywhere — including in the places that have built their international identity on resistance.
>The panel discusses what this means for serious anti-imperial analysis, what it means for movements that have invested heavily in the multipolarity frame, and what an honest assessment of the global balance of power actually looks like in the current moment.

https://www.iraqinews.com/iraq/mass-arrests-signal-iraqi-pms-push-for-reform-before-trump-talks/
>Baghdad — Iraqi authorities arrested 47 officials, including members of parliament, on Sunday as part of an anti-graft campaign in the corruption-plagued country, state media reported.
>Iraq’s new prime minister, Ali al-Zaidi, who recently took office with the blessing of the United States, has made two main vows: to fight corruption and to ensure a state monopoly on weapons.
>His anti-graft raids come before an expected visit next month to Washington, where he hopes to attract US investment and is expected to renew his promise to ensure pro-Iran armed groups hand over their weapons.
>Iraq’s news agency INA quoted senior officials as saying that 47 suspects were “arrested on corruption charges,” including members of parliament and other officials, with at least one from the oil ministry.
>The round-up began early Sunday when Iraqi security forces, primarily from anti-terrorism units, raided Baghdad’s fortified Green Zone and another neighbourhood in the capital.
>The Green Zone houses the US embassy and other diplomatic missions, as well as international institutions and government offices. High-ranking officials and politicians also live there.
>Video footage shared on local Telegram channels showed security forces in heavy armoured vehicles in the Green Zone, including a clip of them inside a compound and, in one instance, inside a house.
>A diplomat in Baghdad told AFP that Zaidi’s anti-corruption operation “is part of the Washington visit preparations” and designed to show his commitment to his promise.
>The raids also coincided with a visit to Baghdad by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, who promised to expand Tehran’s cooperation with the new Iraqi government in all sectors, “as we did with previous governments.”
>Iraq has long walked a tightrope between the competing influences of its allies, neighbouring Iran and the United States.
>A security official told AFP the raids were carried out over corruption, but they are also part of “a larger campaign” against “funding factions and the smuggling of dollars and Iranian oil”, referring to Tehran-backed armed groups, which Washington designates as terrorist organisations.
<-The beginning-
>The security official added that the US pressure is key in the matter, adding that “what has happened today is only the simple beginning.”
>During the recent Middle East war, pro-Iran groups intervened in support of Tehran and hit US facilities in Iraq, including an ambush on US diplomats in Baghdad. They also hit targets in Gulf countries.
>Recently, at least two armed groups have said they will cooperate to hand over weapons to the state.
>Zaidi, who came to power after the US had vetoed another candidate, hopes to attract more US investment to Iraq, which urgently needs to revive its economy, especially after significant revenue losses caused by the halt in oil exports during the Middle East war.
>The anti-corruption campaign is ongoing in Baghdad and other provinces, INA said.
>Iraq anti-graft body, the Commission of Integrity, said that authorities are implementing judicial arrest warrants against suspects “accused of misappropriating public funds”.
>Earlier, INA reported that the suspects were arrested based on confessions made by oil ministry official Adnan al-Jumaili, who was arrested last month.
>In a move to demonstrate commitment to fighting corruption, authorities seized more than $85 million earlier this month in the graft case against Jumaili. even as it loses, USA-Israel wins. there is no hope for the world.
Who has been arrested in Iraq's corruption crackdown?Iraqi security forces have arrested at least 53 current and former politicians, lawmakers and government officials in a sweeping anti-corruption campaign launched by Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi, with authorities signalling that more than 100 suspects could ultimately face arrest.
The operation, led by Iraq's Counter Terrorism Service and Special Operations Unit, resumed on Monday with raids in the provinces of Wasit, Kirkuk and Anbar, targeting the homes of politicians and relatives of suspects already detained as part of efforts to recover allegedly stolen state funds.
Judicial sources told The New Arab that those arrested since Sunday include political figures, members of parliament and senior government officials accused of corruption.
Large sums of cash, amounting to billions of Iraqi dinars and millions of US dollars, as well as gold, luxury vehicles and other assets were reportedly seized during the raids.
Iraqi authorities have officially disclosed only 15 names through the state news agency, while the identities of other suspects remain confidential due to the ongoing investigation and concerns that additional suspects could flee the country.
The crackdown follows the arrest earlier this month of former deputy oil minister Adnan al-Jumaili, who is accused of overseeing a major corruption network within the Oil Ministry.
According to TNA's judicial sources, al-Jumaili allegedly admitted to financing election campaigns for politicians and officials during Iraq's November 2025 parliamentary elections and implicated numerous public figures during questioning.
Those reportedly arrested include Muthanna al-Samarrai, leader of the Azm Alliance and a member of parliament; Ziyad al-Janabi, a lawmaker and former head of parliament's Integrity Committee; Bahaa al-Nouri, an MP from former Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani's Reconstruction and Development Coalition; Mohammed al-Karbouli, an MP from the Azm Alliance; and veteran parliamentarian Alia Nassif.
Former Wasit governor Mohammed Jameel al-Mayahi, politicians Hassanein al-Khafaji and Abdul Rahman al-Luwaizi, lawmakers Mudar al-Karawi, Hind al-Abbasi and Mohammed Farman al-Jubouri, former MP Bushra al-Qaisi, former government adviser Ibrahim al-Sumaidaie, and Ali Maarij, deputy oil minister for distribution, who is under US sanctions, were also named among those detained.
Authorities have also arrested Abbas al-Sudani, the brother of former Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, Abdul Karim al-Sudani, the former prime minister's office chief, Sami al-Sudani, a former government adviser, and Saif al-Din al-Karbouli, director of the Azm Alliance office.
Officials from the oil and electricity ministries have also been detained, including Alaa Samir, director general of the Middle Electricity Distribution Company, as well as oil ministry officials in Kirkuk, Nineveh and Haditha.
Iraq's Kurdistan Region is expected to hand over three MPs who fled there following the launch of the operation, along with other officials wanted under judicial arrest warrants.
According to judicial and government sources, the campaign is expected to expand in the coming days to include additional senior politicians from the previous government, business owners and company executives accused of involvement in embezzling state funds.
The Iraqi government is also preparing a list of fugitives to submit to Interpol in an effort to secure the extradition of suspects who have reportedly fled to neighbouring countries, while parliament could lift the immunity of additional lawmakers as the investigation continues.
Prime Minister al-Zaidi has presented the campaign as part of his government's wider anti-corruption drive, which has received broad support from religious figures and sections of Iraqi society.

<The IRA: How do you assess things, you know, almost two months since we did our last interview?
>Dizard: A complete lack of preparation by the government as a whole for what we’re going to face. Cluelessness. I think that the Trump Administration and the rest of society are living on hope. Commercial people and corporations, even energy companies, have just accepted the government’s guidance that this will be settled soon. What else can they say? So as a consequence, unlike, say, in Japan or Korea, certainly in China or even India, there just haven’t been any preparations for actual supply shortages. We already have diesel prices that are going to be going up. If not hyperbolically, you know, very, very aggressively. And in the case of the Group III lubricants and even Group II lubricants that I’ve been obsessing about, we have an availability problem starting now…
>Consider high-end lubricating oil. You take what’s called a base oil, which comes from a refinery, and then you put in additives for, say, winter or to avoid corrosion and oxidation. But they’re simply not there. The shortages are hitting the formulators, the blenders right now. They just simply can’t get supplies of high-end lubricating oil. It’ll hit consumers over a lack of availability by the end of this month or beginning of next month. Group III base oil is already, when you can get it, it’s at least $10 a gallon, but really, it’s on allocation. In other words, if you have a special arrangement with refiners, for example if you’re an auto OEM— original equipment manufacturer of autos or trucks— you’ll get some factory fill supply. But retail gasoline or retail diesel distributors just won’t have what they need. Now, this means that the auto and truck manufacturers are already saying to customers, “Well, you can stretch out your oil changes.”…
<The IRA: So my idiot light goes on and I go to my auto parts store or dealer for five quarts of synthetic. What happens?
>Dizard: They’re not going to be able to get it. If you run synthetic in a truck or a car, you’re basically SOL. That’s a problem. The U. S. has become highly dependent on imported lubricants. For the higher end lubricants, Group III. as they’re called, or Group IV, the U. S. imports about 70% of its requirements. Of that. 40%, between 40 and 50% has come—- until March—- from the Gulf, from refiners in the Gulf, and about 30% has come from South Korea. Neither of them are shipping product to the United States now. The Koreans have redirected their production to either domestic use and domestic OEMs, or maybe to some Korean OEM assemblers in the States….
>You’d feel the shortage of diesel or gasoline, petrol immediately, whereas you might be able to postpone the lubricant use, but not forever. The immediate headline issue was a shortage of diesel. It’s life-threatening in Africa, of course, and in Asia, too. But the lubricant shortage now compounds that because you you’re going to see a tradeoff between diesel supply and the slightly heavier lubricant supply required for most trucks. >>2854252I read your synopsis thoughever

Trump lashes out at fuel retailers over high pricesThe US president is once again demanding petrol stations and other fuel retailers lower their prices immediately in response to the fall in oil prices.
In an apparent threat, Trump warned retailers that “big problems lie ahead” if they do not start charging customers less.
“Gasoline Retailers must get their Prices down, IMMEDIATELY! They’re too high considering that Oil is now at $68 a Barrel, and heading south,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
“The Retailers must quickly react to this statement, and do what they know is right — DROP YOUR PRICE FOR OUR GREAT AMERICAN PEOPLE! There will be no gauging, which is totally illegal. If Retailers don’t do this, big problems lie ahead!”
Oil prices surged at the outset of the US-Israeli war on Iran after Tehran closed the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20 percent of the world’s energy supplies usually flowed. Prices have since declined in response to the US-Iran MoU and the possibility of a final deal between Washington and Tehran being reached.
https://aje.news/thf0zf?update=4716506A recap of recent developments>• US President Donald Trump claims Iran has “requested a meeting” following the exchange of strikes last week, and says it will take place in Doha today.<• Iran’s foreign ministry says there are no planned meetings “at any level” with the US in the coming days.>• But it says an Iranian expert delegation will be dispatched to Doha this week to follow up on the implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding signed on June 17, including the release of frozen Iranian assets.<• Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian slams the US’s “unreasonable boasting and “unfounded threats” and says Tehran will fulfil its obligations under the MoU if Washington adheres to it.>• Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi has rejected plans by Oman and France to begin demining operations in the Strait of Hormuz, warning Paris against “provocations” in a “sensitive and complex situation”.<• Israeli forces killed at least eight Palestinians in Gaza, including two children, and attack southern Lebanon, hitting the area between the towns of Qantara and Deir Seryan, despite signing an agreement with the Lebanese government to end hostilities. >>2854360i called. i said USA-Israel would do this. why didn't the Iranian leadership read my posts on leftypol dot org the everything site

>I can't stress enough how much this tweet gets wrong.
>First, Prime Minister al-Zaidi is hardly the person who initiated this campaign. At most, he is overseeing its implementation in his capacity as Commander-in-Chief. The more likely driving force lies within Iraq's judicial establishment. Anyone familiar with how the Iraqi judiciary operates knows that arrest warrants targeting figures of this political stature are highly unlikely to be issued without approval from the highest judicial authority.
>Second, this is hardly a "coup." Most of those arrested occupy second- or third-tier positions in Iraq's political hierarchy. Even the most prominent among them, Muthana al-Samarrai, is far from politically indispensable. He heads a relatively small parliamentary bloc and has generally functioned more as a political broker than as a top-level decision-maker.
>Third, the Iran angle is probably the weakest claim in the tweet. Most of those arrested are Sunni politicians or state officials and functionaries. The Shi'a figures involved are hardly hardline pro-Iran actors, let alone individuals closely associated with the IRGC. What we are most likely witnessing is another episode of elite power struggles and factional politics. Among the major political players, the biggest apparent loser seems to be former Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, although it is still too early to draw firm conclusions.
>It is not unusual for new Iraqi governments to launch anti-corruption campaigns at the beginning of their tenure, only for these efforts to lose momentum over time. What makes this episode different, however, is that it appears to have strong backing from the upper echelons of the judiciary and is unfolding in the context of mounting external pressure and growing economic challenges.
>Given the enduring popularity of anti-corruption rhetoric in Iraq and the public's deep frustration with impunity for the "big fish," this could prove to be a politically astute strategy for enhancing the legitimacy of the new government—and, more broadly, the political settlement on which it rests.https://carnegieendowment.org/people/harith-hasan?lang=en
<Harith Hasan is an associate researcher at the Arab Center for Research and Policy Studies. https://apnews.com/article/iraq-arrests-corruption-eebff7c8229d69ffd48d280014407fe1Iraqi officials, including lawmakers, arrested on corruption charges in overnight raid
>BAGHDAD (AP) — Dozens of Iraqi political officials have been arrested on corruption charges, Iraq’s state-run Iraqi News Agency reported Sunday.
>It said the arrests were based on a statement made by former Deputy Minister of Oil Adnan al-Jumaili, who was arrested last month, and “included members of Parliament whose immunity had been lifted.”
>Iraqi security forces sealed off all entrances to the capital’s heavily fortified Green Zone early Sunday and carried out raids inside the compound that houses key government institutions and foreign embassies.
>The state news agency later reported that 47 people had been arrested in the corruption probe, but it was not clear if all of them were detained Sunday or if some of them had been arrested earlier.
>It released the names of 15 arrestees, including 12 current lawmakers, one former legislator, a former adviser to former Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani, and another high-ranking oil ministry official. Some of the arrested lawmakers came from al-Sudani’s Shiite political bloc and others from the Azm Alliance, an influential Sunni party.
>Al-Sudani’s bloc won the largest share of seats in November’s parliamentary elections, but he ultimately stepped aside amid a deadlock in the Coordination Framework — a coalition of Shiite parties allied with Iran that brought him to power — over their preferred candidate for premier.
>Al-Sudani was replaced by Ali al-Zaidi, a businessman and political newcomer, who emerged as a consensus candidate and received the blessing of the United States.
>The arrests are likely to have ripple effects across Iraq’s fractured political landscape, where accusations of corruption frequently intersect with rivalries over power and influence.
>Diaa Jaafar, the investigative judge of Iraq’s central anti-corruption court, said in a statement that the investigation into al-Jumaili began in October “following the court’s receipt of a number of reports alleging that several candidates had spent exorbitant sums of money to support their election campaigns, exploiting state resources and with the support of influential figures in the previous government.”
>The specific accusations against them were not immediately clear.
>He said the investigation uncovered the involvement of a group of legislators in “exploiting state resources for electioneering and benefiting from government contracts, directly or indirectly, to obtain commissions and personal advantages for themselves and others.”
>Jaafar said Parliament Speaker Haibet Al-Halbousi lifted the immunity of the members of parliament implemented in the case and the arrest warrants against them were then executed. In the shadow of Minab: Inside the US testing of 'new missiles' on Iran’s Lamerd
<Residents of the southern city recount the day missiles struck a sports hall, killing children during practicehttps://www.middleeasteye.net/news/shadow-minab-inside-us-testing-new-missiles-irans-lamerd
>In Lamerd, in Iran’s southern Fars province, the threat of war gave way to reality when previously untested missiles struck a school, sports grounds and nearby neighbourhoods.
>The attack came just six hours after the double-tap strikes on the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab on 28 February, over 400km away in Hormozgan province, where 120 children, 24 staff, seven parents, a school bus driver and a pharmacist were killed.
>Four missiles from a new weapon system, the Lockheed Martin Precision Strike Missile (PrSM), which had never before been seen or deployed, would be field-tested on the town of 30,000 people.
>At 5.11pm (1.41pm GMT), the missiles struck a residential area where a row of homes adjoined a few neighbourhood shops.
>Rounia Fakori, 12, was at volleyball practice when the first explosion shook the school building.
>"We were in our practice when we heard the first impact. We rushed to the door," she recalled.
>Then another missile struck, plunging the girls and their coaches into darkness as smoke and heat filled the sports hall. The force of the blast slammed the doors shut.
>"We couldn't see anything," the girls’ volleyball coach, Rahimeh Shehabi, told Middle East Eye. "We could only hear the screams of the children."
>As the missiles struck the school and sports hall, a football game was underway outside.
>Eleven-year-old Mahdiar was playing with his friends, including 12-year-olds Ilya Khatami and Abdulmosavar Rahmani, when explosive shrapnel tore through the area.
>According to Mahdiar, he and one of his friends ran towards the canopy, where their football coach, Mahmoud Najafi, called out: "Come here quickly, it's dangerous there."
>Ilya and his coach then rushed towards the building to help open the door for the girls and women trapped inside as a fourth missile struck, rattling the sports hall.
>"The fourth missile hit here," Ilya's father, Mohammad Khatami, gesturing towards the collapsed corner of the gym, told MEE. "The force of the blast struck Ilya in the back of the head."
>For Khatami, returning to the scene was emotionally difficult, though he took some solace in knowing that his son died while rushing to help those trapped inside. His coach was also killed.
>"It is really painful for me," he said, "But I'm happy that my son was so responsible that he was with his coach, helping open the door for the girls."
<Pulverised bones
>Dr Moussa Mousavi, a local parliamentarian and practising surgeon, was among the doctors who operated on wounded children at the local hospital.
>Mousavi described the US attack on Lamerd as a deliberate crime against children, pointing to self-congratulatory remarks posted by US Central Command (Centcom) days after the tragedy.
>In a statement on social media, Centcom said: "In a historic first, long-range Precision Strike Missiles (PrSMs) were used in combat during Operation Epic Fury, providing an unrivalled deep strike capability."
>Mousavi said that in all his years working as a surgeon through successive conflicts, including the 1980-88Iran-Iraq war, he had never encountered weapons like those used in the attack.
>"These pellets are like bullets fired from a rifle," he said.
>Emphasising their "high penetration rate", he said the shrapnel did not simply lodge in victims' bodies but tore through entire body parts - sometimes exploding inside organs or leaving patients paralysed.
>One 15-year-old girl was left blind by the explosion. Another, known for her eloquence, survived the attack but can no longer speak. A third suffered catastrophic abdominal injuries, while another was left paralysed and bedridden after shrapnel tore through her body and into her spine.
>Like the "butterfly bullets" used by the Israeli army against Palestinians, the pellets are designed not only to kill but to inflict mass, life-changing injuries. Several of the boys playing football suffered such devastating leg injuries that their muscles and bones were "completely pulverised", stripping them within seconds not only of their ability to play, but also to walk.
>The attacks on Lamerd killed 21 people, including six children, and wounded more than 150.
>The school sustained extensive damage just hours after classes had ended and, with the war having begun during Ramadan, less than an hour before iftar. Had the missiles struck earlier, the death toll could have been far higher.
>Four children were killed in the strike on the school: 10-year-old Helma Ahmadizadeh and 11-year-old Elham Zaeri, Rounia's teammates on the volleyball court; and Ilya Khatami and Abdulmosavar Rahmani, both 12, Mahdiar's teammates on the football pitch.
>A 16-year-old girl, Zahra Gholami, was also killed by shrapnel elsewhere in the town.
>The youngest victim was two-year-old Avina Bazingar, who was hit by shrapnel while playing in her yard. Mousavi operated on her for three hours as she lay with her pacifier still in her mouth.
>She later died from her wounds.
>"My daughter, a nurse, was praying and reciting the Quran in her yard, distressed by the massacre of children in Minab, when shrapnel from the PrSM missile explosions struck and killed her," the mother of one victim said.
>Months after the attack, she said an "orange powder" still lingered in the home, "no matter how much we try to wash it off".
<The weapon itself
>On 31 March, Centcom issued an official denial of involvement in the attack, blaming the incident on a misfired Iranian Hoveyzeh cruise missile. It later said the US Army did not hit within a 48km radius of Lamerd.
>Yet weeks earlier, on 4 March, Centcom had released a statement applauding the deployment of the same missile, just four days after the attack.
>The statement also quoted Admiral Brad Cooper, the head of Centcom: "I just could not be prouder of our men and women in uniform leveraging innovation to create dilemmas for the enemy."
<'We couldn't see anything. We could only hear the screams of the children'
<- Rahimeh Shehabi, volleyball coach
>The US also blamed Iran for the strikes on the Minab school, but later said it had launched an investigation into the attack.
>Weeks later, the Trump administration said: "Several media outlets recently reported accusations of US forces striking a sports hall and residential area in the city of Lamerd, Iran, on Feb 28. After looking into the reports, US Central Command has confirmed the accusations are false."
>MEE was among the first foreign media outlets to visit Lamerd after the attack and observed no apparent military targets at the sites that were struck.
>Multiple witnesses and MEE’s own observations indicated that there was no Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps base or other military site in the area.
>No military casualties were reported among the dead and wounded, all of whom were civilians.
>The US has described its strike capability as "surgical". However, in Lamerd, the impact was concentrated on civilian infrastructure, including the school and surrounding homes.
>The PrSM, fielded in 2023, was designed to replace the Army Tactical Missile System, partly because of its more compact size. It has a similar range, at roughly 300 to 500km, though the US is developing variants that can exceed 1,000km.
>The US depleted its stock of PrSM missiles in the early weeks of the war and is now investing heavily in expanding production of the system.
>Each missile carries an estimated 180,000 tungsten pellets designed to disperse at high speed on detonation. Across the four missiles, around 720,000 tungsten pellets were dispersed over two neighbourhoods as the warheads detonated just above their targets.
>For Lamerd’s total population, this would amount to an average of around 24 pellets per person.
<'A football player'
>A New York Times investigation, citing weapons experts, found that the pellet-like shrapnel and mid-air detonation pattern were more consistent with the PrSM than with the Hoveyzeh missile.
>The impacts left concrete intersections peppered with holes, walls pierced and entire blocks marked by shrapnel damage.
>Weapon systems such as the PrSM are designed to deliver high-impact strikes and cause extensive damage across wide target areas.
>The sites of the heaviest damage included a storage unit on the school grounds, a classroom, the school gym, a hair salon and a travel agency opposite a shrapnel-ridden residential building. The pattern of destruction corresponded to ground-level structures beneath the airburst impacts, with no ground craters typically associated with conventional missile strikes.
>Cars in the area were left riddled with shrapnel, twisted and burned out. One charred vehicle remains on display in the town. Near the damaged travel agency and salon, a wrecked truck still sits in the street, another marker of the scale of the destruction that day.
>In Lamerd, despite the deep shock and pain of the tragedy, residents appear to have responded with collective resolve, coming together in acts of mutual support in its aftermath.
>"Everyone was volunteering, asking: ‘What can we do to help others?’" one nurse told MEE, describing how people came to help clean the hospital, queue to donate blood and support those affected.
>"This unity the Iranian people have doesn’t exist anywhere else," she said.
>Rounia and Mahdiar were not deterred from returning to their favourite sports, with each expressing a desire to go back to the volleyball court and football pitch.
>When asked what he hopes to be in the future, Mahdiar answered simply and enthusiastically: "A football player." Seems a bit retarded to break the peace between the Iranian state and the Apoist movement, tbqh. Why create problems for themselves. I guess it's part of the shifts in power in Iran, with the military seemingly now having a high level control politically.
YRK: Four of our comrades were martyred in the Mahabad operation.The YRK Press and Communications Center issued a statement regarding the recent attacks by Iranian Revolutionary Guard forces and the operation in Mahabad.
YRK's statement regarding the attack on its forces is as follows:
“As our people and the public are aware, recently the Iranian regime’s Revolutionary Guard has carried out attacks against our forces in many ways. As the Supreme Council of the Revolution, we have always shared the results of these attacks with the public and our people.”
We specifically state that, as the Supreme Revolutionary Guard, we have always maintained our policy and third-party stance regarding the attacks and wars in Iran. We have not supported any force and have not carried out any attacks against the Iranian regime. We stood by Iran when it was at its weakest, upholding our strength and principles. With these recent agreements with the United States, the Revolutionary Guard, security forces, and intelligence services have significantly increased their attacks against our people and our forces. Taking advantage of the current situation, they are cowardly targeting our forces with their attacks.
Our people and the public are aware of this. Since the night of June 27th, a military operation has been launched in the Mahabad region, in and around the village of Gageş. We informed our people about this operation early on and stated that we had no information about it.
<THESE ATTACKS WILL NOT GO UNANSWERED.According to the information we have and reports from the region, a large force heavily armed attacked our forces during this operation. These attacks resulted in casualties and injuries among the Revolutionary Guards. Additionally, four of our comrades—two women and two men—heroically resisted until the very end and became martyrs. We will announce the identities of our comrades to the public and our people later.
As the Rojhilatê Kurdistan Defense Units (YRK), we will evaluate the recent attacks against our forces with the relevant authorities, and as we have stated before, if these attacks continue, our stance will be different. We reiterate that these attacks will not go unanswered.”

Do we have any comments from top diplomatic member of the Iranian government after JD Vance basically admitted what most of us ITT already knew? (basically, paraphras, 'the MOU is just to re-stock oil reserves, minerals, etc, then they would resume the aggressions')
I can't wait to see how they will take his words.
new cope just dropped. iran has obtained nuclear weapons already
>Yashar party chief Gadi Eisenkot and former prime minister Naftali Bennett accuse Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of lying after the premier claimed during his Channel 14 interview last night that he ordered two Israeli attacks on Iran “to save us from the destruction of atomic bombs — which they already had obtained.”
>This was the first time that Netanyahu has ever claimed that Iran had already obtained a nuclear weapon. He has long boasted of advancing policies that prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.
>Calling out Netanyahu during an appearance at the Herzliya conference, Eisenkot, a former IDF chief of staff and a member of the war cabinet, insists, “Iran never obtained nuclear weapons. I’m well aware of all the intelligence. Netanyahu is inventing a reality, making up threats, and that’s his way to scare the Israeli public.”https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/pm-claims-he-saved-israel-from-destruction-by-ordering-attacks-on-iran-after-it-already-obtained-atomic-bombs/>>2856892>"Netanyahu is inventing a reality, making up threats, and that’s his way to scare the Israeli public.”Funny that it's so commonplace they just say it like this now.

US envoy warns Iran over Hormuz closure during emergency UNSC sessionThe US envoy to the UN Security Council, Mike Waltz, warned Iran over threats to close the Strait of Hormuz during an emergency session of the United Nations Security Council.
“We say to Iran that the closure of international waterways is unacceptable and is not considered self-defence.”
The emergency UNSC meeting was called at the request of Bahrain following “Iran’s repeated aggression” against it.
