>>323632 Idk, to be quite honest, it seems like the United States is running out of places to invade in the Middle East, as so many places are either staunchly American allies (Israel, Turkey, Saudis, Gulf States, Jordan, Morocco, etc.), logistical nightmares to actually invade (Iran and Algeria), or have already been attacked by the United States so far (Syria, Iraq, Palestine, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, etc.). If I had to venture a guess, assuming the Houthis are able to achieve a victory in Yemen, I could see them, if not directly militarily invading due to logistical issues, at least instituting massive bombing and destruction campaigns to keep the country from rebuilding (aka make the country Somalia 2.0). Alternatively, given Morocco's recent tightening of relations with America, perhaps America will decide to give greater aid in crushing the Sahrawi nation. Maybe if Lebanon sees greater Hezbollah rule, that may bring about a military campaign against the Lebanese nation. As it stands however, I don't really see any large-scale Iraq-style invasions occurring. The only two major regional powers that aren't already in America's pocket are Iran and Algeria, and both of those countries would be incredibly difficult to invade due to their size and geography.

>>323656 >>323632 We could also consider the possibility that the US may pivot away from the MENA region altogether to refocus on other areas. The rise of China and the re-emergence of Latin American social democracy leads me to believe that they may turn their attention to these regions. It seems like the strategic offensive in the Middle East which began in 1991 has been recognized as an overall failure by the American leadership.
sabo-tabby Sabo-Tabby Anonymous 2021-06-17 (Thu) 18:17:39 No. 323707
>>323662 I agree 100%. It seems that MENA, like Indochina before, has been a pretty colossal embarrassment for imperialism. The fact that the largest superpowers on the planet have been unable to subdue places like Yemen, Iraq, and Somalia is an undeniable embarrassment, especially considering the high hopes they had going into this string of conquests. Of course, this isn't to say that this was some great devastating defeat for imperialism, at least on a grand scale. Their mission of crushing secular socialist / left-nationalist governments in the region has unfortunately succeeded (although this mission has been in place far longer than the current war on terror), and they have still managed to secure the continued support of key allies in the region. Still, given how amazingly futile their efforts have been, particularly given how heavily the odds were stacked in their favor, I agree that the imperial powers may have to lick their wounds, cut their losses, and turn towards the insurgent popular struggles in Latin America. Either way, the cracks in the imperial system, unable to subdue a historically conquerable region like Iraq, have never been more apparent.

So can anyone explain a bit about Ebrahim Raisi? I've skimmed over some Western news outlets and what they've been saying about him, most are kvetching about him being ultraconservative and whatnot, but is it actually true? How much more of a hardliner will he be compared to Rouhani? And ultimately does it matter he'll be president now? Doesn't Khamenei have the final say in pretty much all policies? Correct me if I'm wrong, but as long as the Ayatollah is a hardliner then wouldn't we expect the same policies from Iran to remain unchanged, that being religious conservatism and "Iranian neoconservatism" in the region.

He is on the left economically, he believes in economic sovereignty, nationalized industries which no 'reformist' or anyone in a peripheral nation who wants to liberalize their economy for western interests believes in. Another thing, his social conservatism is part of a national identity (which is very important for peripheral nations according to many theorists like Fanon) also in the Iranian case it is part of an anti-Western stance. It does matter what the PM wants, but Khamenei/IRGC might pick the winner, I don't know or really care. I expect to see continued improving relations with China's BRI and Russia, multi polarity in general (see: recent ships headed to VZ that were illegally intercepted by US), continued distancing from west, prosperity for Iranians. Doubt the US will get what it wants from new nuke deal as it will never ever lift its sanctions and China just signed a 25-year trade deal with Iran.

Also I don't mean Iranian neoconservatism as an insult, I know technically it doesn't apply to Iran but I'm simply using it to refer to Iran's interventionism in the region ever since 1979. Probably won't change unless structural changes in Iranian politics occur.

>>327821 What can I say, I'm sure there are better orgs than Tudeh out there, but as it stands now, Tudeh is the one that has the most prominence and notoriety. I have been trying to read more works of the Fedai guerillas, and so far they've been quite insightful, but it's hard to concretely support them now given how they've splintered over the years. Either way, what I was trying to prove to anons in the thread is that, contrary to their third-camp (or at worst, actively pro-Shah) stances, the Iranian left was both very supportive of the 1979 Revolution and is still 100% opposed to the idea of Western-backed regime change today. The Tudeh quotes just served as evidence to this point, and frankly, regardless of their broader party, I think their position on US-Iran relations is spot-on.

>>328668 Why Dr Ahmadinejad has been denied candidacy is not because he is not suitable or because he has violated the constitution as many like to think going to the extent of accusing him of corruption . Where is the money that Doctor has hoarded we ask ? We have not seen any sign of material wealth on him . It is because he is not corrupt that Dr. Ahmadinejad has been denied candidacy and because the corrupt ones that have taken over Iran's administration will not accept him since he represents a direct threat on them. And also the foreign powers fear very much that Dr Ahmadinejad ascends to presidency and they do everything to prevent this from happening . Remember what happened in 2009 , the western powers through their embassies and their affiliates did everything in order to prevent the winner candidate Dr Ahmadinejad from ruling
How can people accuse this modest, humble person as corrupt? It is they who are corrupt. Ahmadinejad scared them to death. A man with a pure heart in this dirty world of politics.

The Chief Rabbinates Office is a governmental body with political power. They are paid by the State of Israel, and indeed do interpret halacha, which can be legally binding. They have the final say in which women are permitted to have an abortion for example, and they can start deportation proceedings by recommending it. Israel works as a semi-theocracy, which will likely give way entirely in the coming decades as the orthodox becomes a majority and brain drain persists due to liberal younger Jews reverse aliyahing back to Europe.

It largely depends on what the US's next move is. They've been gearing up for some sort of confrontation, and Iran has been high up on their shit list for a while now. It looks like they're shifting to the Caribbean/South America at the moment, but that could just be a feint or show of force. If not, Venezuela is probably their next target. I will be shocked if the US isn't at war with Iran before the end of Biden's presidency though.

Israeli forces open fire on Palestinians; hundreds wounded The Palestine Red Crescent reported 379 protesters were wounded – 31 of them by live ammunition. Israeli forces opened fire on hundreds of Palestinian demonstrators who rallied against an illegal outpost in the occupied West Bank on Friday, with more than 370 people wounded including 31 hit by live ammunition.
Drones dropped tear gas canisters and smoke filled the air at the scene of the protest in the West Bank town of Beita, near Nablus, where Palestinians protested illegal land confiscation.
Demonstrators burned tyres and threw rocks at Israeli forces, local media reports said. Witnesses said Israeli troops fired live rounds and rubber-coated steel bullets at the demonstrators after Friday prayers in Beita.
The Palestine Red Crescent reported 379 protesters were wounded – 31 by live ammunition. There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military.
Similar confrontations were also witnessed in the town of Kafr Qaddum and in Beit Dajan, where dozens of Palestinians were treated for the effects of tear gas.
The Israeli army also suppressed a protest against the settlements in the Masafer Yatta area in Hebron.
Israeli and Palestinian estimates indicate there are about 650,000 settlers in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, living in 164 settlements and 116 outposts.
Under international law, all Israeli settlements in the occupied territories are illegal.
Evyatar outpost Tensions in the occupied West Bank reached new highs in the past months with the Evyatar settlement being one of the focal points of clashes, as settlers refused to evacuate the land and Palestinians fiercely demonstrated against their presence.
In May, 34 Palestinians were killed – the highest monthly figure in 10 years – with Israel’s domestic intelligence agency, the Shin Bet, reporting almost 600 violent incidents, as the Israeli military reinforced its presence in the occupied territories with several more battalions.
Palestinians in nearby villages say the Evyatar outpost was illegally built on their land and fear it will grow and merge with larger settlements nearby.
At least four protesters, including two teenagers, have been killed in the clashes in recent months.
The settlers named the outpost Evyatar after an Israeli was killed – allegedly by a Palestinian – in 2013, and say it is home to dozens of families.
At the end of June, Israel reached a compromise with the settlers living in Evyatar. Under the agreement, the settlers left the outpost, and the area became a closed military zone, but the houses and roads remained in place.
Critics say the eviction did not reflect a change of Israeli policy.
An Israeli government survey will be carried out that the settlers say will prove the outpost was not established on land privately owned by Palestinians.
That would pave the way to establish a religious school and for some families to return.

https://expatimes.com/blog/2021/07/11/contentious-jewish-state-legislation-upheld-by-israeli-courtroom/?feed_id=7077 A controversial legislation that defines Israel because the nation state of the Jewish folks was upheld by the Supreme Court, which rejected claims by opponents that it discriminates towards minorities.
In its ruling on Thursday, the courtroom acknowledged shortcomings within the so-called Nation State Law. But it stated it “didn’t negate Israel’s democratic character” outlined in different legal guidelines.
Proponents of the 2018 legislation claimed the laws merely enshrined Israel’s current Jewish character.
Critics stated it additional downgrades the standing of Israel’s Palestinian minority, which makes up about 20 p.c of the nation’s inhabitants.
Adalah, a Palestinian rights group that attempted to overturn the legislation, stated the courtroom upheld a legislation that “fully excludes those that don’t belong to the bulk group”. It stated it could “proceed to work internationally to show the discriminatory and racist nature of this legislation”.
Israel’s Palestinian residents have the suitable to vote and are well-represented in lots of professions, however nonetheless undergo from widespread discrimination in areas corresponding to housing and the job market.
The legislation was accepted by the Knesset, or parliament, in July 2018. It defines Israel because the “nation-state” of the Jewish folks and provides that “fulfilling the suitable to nationwide self-determination within the state of Israel is exclusive to the Jewish folks.”
It additionally downgraded Arabic from an official state language to 1 with “particular standing”.

I think this is a panicked reaction to hybrid war gone bad for the bases set among seething populations, and protected by Kurd sepoys who greatly offend Erdogan in Turkey. The American tanks are routinely stopped by village children. Really. The local tribes suffer indignity from the Kurds , and wow vengeance.
Of late , the Iraq forces established by the Revolutionary Guards who have just seized power in Iran , have launched drone attacks that evade the Patriot and other systems. Some landed just yesterday. This is an untenable position, sort of like the old flic, "Beau Geste"

They send their members with prewritten questions that have nothing to do with whatever Norm is talking about on a certain day, and are always argued in bad faith, like all Zionist arguments. Norm seems to be sick of getting so many bad faith Zionist questions, he's probably received the most in history. In this case the shill is asking why it is Israel's responsibility to take care of its Arabs instead of the nearby Arab states' responaibility. It's clearly an ignorant question, as the Arab world rejected the existence of Israel until 1967 and didn't have control of the territory of Gaza before then. They wouldn't have agreed to take care of Gaza because it would be the same as the acceptance of Israel's existence. "Progress was made" though, they came to recognize Israel, and now the shill is revising history to say that Israel had always been accepted and Gaza was shoved on them unfairly.

Nothing happened in the end though we learned later on that every single Western or Western allied nation with nuclear missiles attacked Iran with their arsenal.

This will probably take some time because if that district falls Ansarallah will find itself approaching Marib to the South (in addition to being 10km from the city to the West), so its likely the Saudi coalition will put up at least some resistance.

>>514565 Sandinistanon, you seem to be following Yemen, so I have a question: What is the deal with the Southern Transitional Council? I know that they claim to fight for southern independence, but does that have roots in material causes, or is it the remnants of the cultural division of Yemen since the British came in and partitioned Yemen with the Ottomans? Secondly, who are their benefactors, the Ansarullah have the backing of Iran and the Hadi government is backed by the Saudis, so where does that leave the STC? And my final question is that does the STC have any elements of leftists, like PDRY remnants?

Any knowledgeable anons on the history of Ba'athism, I got a question; why did the Syrian and Iraqi Ba'athists split and what was the split based around? I only have some vague info about apparently the Syrian position being more internationalist (within the Arab world) and the Iraqi position being more nationalist, something like that? Though what confuses me more is that many former or current Ba'athist parties outside of Syria and Iraq are also all affiliated to one or the other position, so what's the deal with this? Why would a Tunisian party for example affiliate themselves with Iraqi nationalism? Unless I'm misunderstanding this whole issue.

>>595779 (Cont) Apologies, I had to write my thoughts out on the assassination attempt
I think the Iraqi militias are more strongly nationalist and resent the openness Khadimi has to the rest of the world (including Gulf States and US) so they might have tried this assassination. But that would be extremely stupid, as they would invite their own destruction by Iran or the US. Iran would not do this unless they thought they could replace Khadimi with an Iranian puppet, but that is a hawkish thinktank propaganda type of idea; more likely that would only cause destabilization, and they currently have the best relationship they've had with Iraq since the Iran-Iraq war. If that's true, and a Shiite militia did the attack, then it shows that the Shiite militias are not in coordination with Iran like everyone wants to claim about every Shiite everywhere. The only entities who could do this without major risk are intelligence agencies. As for Khadimi, the rest of the world has Iraq in a headlock and he seems to be balancing well, though he's not as friendly as a Muqtada type of leader might be with Iran, and maybe he should be. He does not seem like he's itching to get the US out of Iraq, and I'm sure that both the militias and Iran want that very badly.

Now that the Syrian war is over, the UAE is trying to drive a wedge between Assad and Iran by offering diplomatic support in Washington to lift US sanctions. If Saudi Arabia can be convinced to recognize Assad, the US and Israel would likely follow the Gulf to normalize Syria and some concessions could be made about Israel's attacks on Syria's bases, and maybe even returning parts of the Golan, but the lifting of sanctions requires an act of US congress to undo the Caesar Act. I don't think that the US would let this happen, or to an extent that is economically worthwhile for Syria, so I hope Syria doesn't take the bait (which are still only promises) and sticks with Iran/Russia who fought the war for them.

>>616450 The temptation is very strong for the easing of harsh sanctions, along with the slightly more realistic goals of Israeli concessions, but I agree, they cannot ever trust the West/Gulf. Look at this war that just ended, look what happened to Gaddafi. I don't think Assad is that stupid

Joint Statement of Communist and Workers parties On the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People 2021-11-30 (Tue) 17:09:17 No. 624239
We, the undersigned communist and workers parties, on the International Day for Solidarity with the Palestinian people, call to end the ongoing Israeli occupation of all Occupied Palestinian and Arab lands, and the establishment of the Independent Palestinian State on the borders of June 4th, 1967, with East Jerusalem as its capital, as well as implementing a solution to the Refugees issue in accordance with the UN resolution 194. We express our support of the Palestinian political detainees and prisoners and of their fight for freedom and call for the immediate release of all political detainees and prisoners.
We condemn the Israeli government's policies of occupation and settlements, and the continuous dismantling of the geographical continuity of the future Palestinian state’s sovereign lands, and all the imperialist and Zionist machinations aiming at eliminating the Palestinian cause. We demand the immediate dismantling of all Israeli illegal settlements and the Apartheid Wall in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
We denounce the long-term US Administration's support to the Israeli war and occupation policies, the hypocritical attitude of the EU of equating the victims with the perpetrators, and we denounce the escalation witnessed since its aggregation less than 6 months ago; escalation in the settlers' daily aggression and attacks of civilians, farmers, and activists to break the spirit of the Palestinian popular resistance.
We support the just fight of the people of occupied Jerusalem, in Sheikh Jarrah and Silwan, and we denounce the machinations to uproot them from their homes and lands.
We condemn the reactionary Arab regimes' normalization with Israel, fostered by the US and the imperialist machinations in the region. These are not peace agreements, but a validation of Israel and the US's policies to more resource exploitation and military and economic hegemony in the region.
We condemn the continuous Israeli aggression on Syria and Lebanon, and its involvement in undermining their sovereignty. We condemn the joint military maneuvers, between Israel, Turkey, Greece, and Cyprus, and most recently several Gulf countries, coordinated by NATO and mean to terror the peoples of the region, and guard the imperialist interests adding new sources of conflict in the wider region.
The parties undersigned denounce the latest escalation of outlawing the 6 Human Rights organizations, and the continuing Israeli occupation and all atrocities against all economic, political, and democratic rights of the Palestinian people.

After weeks of pause seems that Ansarallah managed to force through at least part of the Saudi defense line directly South of Marib city.
If they manage to consolidate these new positions the siege of Marib could progress to a new phase.

>>636909 Update: While there is very minor progress on Marib front (Saudis are fighting to the bitter end to defend the last line of defense 10-20km south of the city), Ansarallah has started pushing through the desert on various fronts.
(Most likely as a diversion effort to either take Saudi lines off Marib or force them to accept some territorial losses in other parts of the frontline, even if these would be of minor significance).

https://twitter.com/Suriyakmaps/status/1477703426259755009 It seems Ansarallah just temporarily gave up on Marib front, and is now focusing on cleaning some northern areas from Saudi presence.
Today they had some good success in doing it, capturing around 460km2 of ground.
