Iran May Have Just Saved Putin's Butt By Starting a New Desert War!

Long live the fighters!

I was busy goofing off and lolly-gagging these last days. Mostly, I was mad that no one signed up to read my Brezhnev piece. So, I decided to take a nap and retreat from worldly concerns.

But this last bit of news roused me from my slumber.

Let’s start with the bad news first though.

From what I can tell, the missile and drone swarm by Iran appears to be mostly performative. We have seen this before. It is a tried and true strategy employed by Moscow to pretend that they are prosecuting the Not War seriously when they, in fact, aren’t. But the first instance of this PR strategy being used that I can recall was actually by Iran. When General Soleimani was assassinated by Trump, the Iranians fired off a few impotent, symbolic missiles at American bases in Iraq. By some accounts, the Iranians phoned ahead of time to make sure that no soldiers would be hit.

In other words, this was a domestic PR placation strategy.

The Iranian government is mostly composed of comprador elites that were educated in the West by intelligence agencies. In fact, funny enough, the mullahs have openly stated before that they have based their government on the ideal government outlined by Plato in The Republic. This makes perfect sense if you understand that Plato was basically describing a totalitarian theocracy. And Islam is perfectly compatible with the principles of Platonic government and theology, for the most part as well. But I’m not trying to get all philosophical here and now because I don’t want to lose my casual readers, who have a hard time following along with what I’m saying whenever I “go there” and try to explain politics or theology on a slightly deeper level other than “durrrrr history is good guys kill bad guys x 6million for all of history”.

If I am wrong, then critical targets in Israel will have been revealed to be destroyed.

If I am right, then these attacks were entirely ineffective and mostly done for propaganda/saber-rattling reasons.

A helpful hint that I might be onto something here is that the Biden people are pumping the breaks on an Israeli counter-attack on Iran so far. Here:

President Biden told Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a call on Saturday that the U.S. won't support any Israeli counterattack against Iran, a senior White House official told Axios.

Why it matters: Biden and his senior advisers are highly concerned an Israeli response to Iran's attack on Israel would lead to a regional war with catastrophic consequences, U.S. officials said.

• Iran launched attack drones and missiles against Israel on Saturday night local time in retaliation for an airstrike in Syria that killed a top Iranian general.

• "More than 200 drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles were fired from Iran," IDF spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said. Most of the threats were intercepted outside of Israeli airspace, he said.

• A U.S. defense official earlier said U.S. forces in the region shot down Iranian-launched drones targeting Israel.

Behind the scenes: Biden told Netanyahu the joint defensive efforts by Israel, the U.S. and other countries in the region led to the failure of the Iranian attack, according to the White House official.

• "You got a win. Take the win," Biden told Netanyahu, according to the official.

• The official said that when Biden told Netanyahu that the U.S. will not participate in any offensive operations against Iran and will not support such operations, Netanyahu said he understood.

• U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin spoke on Saturday with his Israeli counterpart Yoav Gallant and asked that Israel notify the U.S. ahead of any response against Iran, a senior Israeli official said.

What they're saying: Biden said in a statement after the call that the U.S. military moved aircraft and ballistic missile defense destroyers to the region over the course of the past week, which helped Israel take down nearly all of the incoming drones and missiles from Iran, Yemen, Syria and Iraq.

• "I told Prime Minister Netanyahu that Israel demonstrated a remarkable capacity to defend against and defeat even unprecedented attacks — sending a clear message to its foes that they cannot effectively threaten the security of Israel," Biden said.

What to watch: Biden said he is going to hold a call on Sunday with the G7 leaders to coordinate a united diplomatic response to Iran's attack.

• "My team will engage with their counterparts across the region. And we will stay in close touch with Israel's leaders. And while we have not seen attacks on our forces or facilities today, we will remain vigilant to all threats and will not hesitate to take all necessary action to protect our people," Biden said.

Editor's note: This story has been updated to clarify that Biden told Netanyahu he won't support an Israeli counterattack against Iran. It has also been corrected to reflect that Lloyd Austin is U.S. Secretary of Defense, not Secretary of State.

It is interesting to note that the Israeli AA defenses largely held up and did their part. There is still some debate about the high altitude “David’s Sling” defenses, but the Patriots did their job, it seems like.

Most of the triumphalist propaganda about the Patriots being junk was generated by Israel itself. They had very strict criterion for what could be considered success or failure in their trials and their training against Hamas and Hezbollah rockets. So, even if the Patriot was able to alter the course of a rocket and render it ineffective, this was still classified as a failure by the Israelis. The Pentagon protested this vociferously at the time, but the reputation that Patriots suck was picked up on the Multipolaristas to claim that Russian rockets were far superior to American-built ones.

I don’t know if this is true, but for most of the Not-War, I was operating under the assumption that this was true. Now though, I am not so sure. I think this may have been ZAnon disinfo, frankly. The AA seems to work relatively well, based on the preliminary results coming in so far.

Remember: the previous claim of ZAnon was that Israel had blundered into a brilliant Hamas trap in Gaza and that the tunnel-warriors would be armed by Russia and Iran and destroy the Israeli incursion. This, to put it mildly, has not happened at all. Israel has bulldozed through Gaza, and is set to claim at least the north of Gaza outright no matter what happens next. But I believe that they are pursuing maximalist aims with this war, and will first cleanse and then occupy more of Gaza before this is all over. They have encountered almost no international resistance or anything serious from Hamas.

Remember x2: Hamas is a creation of British and Israeli intelligence like the Muslim Brotherhood before it which was created to destroy Arab Nationalism, which was a far more organized and potent threat to Israel and “colonizer” powers in the Middle East. The powers that be promote Abrahamism to undermine Nationalism and resistance to the neo-Trotskyite NWO agenda.

Examples: So, in America, Eisenhower resuscitated the corpse of Protestantism to quash German-inspired American Nationalism which was all the rage in the years leading up to and after the war. Putin promotes Abrahamist ecumenism to combat Russian Nationalism (which he calls a moral disease). Arab Nationalism was destroyed by Islamic groups and Islam itself was almost dead before the US and Israel revived it to combat the USSR and the European legacy colonies.

Impotent rocket attacks are also a staple of Palestinian resistance. Saddam let off a largely symbolic SCUD attack on Israel as well. He was put in power by the West, mind you. And, if some conspiracy theorists are to believed, he intentionally sabotaged Iraq’s resistance efforts in the Desert Wars. To make the act even more convincing, he literally had his Feyadeen top soldiers dress like Darth Vader to help the Americans feel like the plucky Rebel Alliance (the good guys).

He should have dressed them up as Sardaurkar instead.

Dune is the superior story.

Saddam had poor taste.

My point here is not to overwhelm you with trivia but to point out that these conflicts are far more managed than you and I have been led to believe. Keep that in mind as we come full circle back to the Not-War in Donbass.

Here’s the thing: Kiev’s AA capabilities have NOT been replenished.

They ran out of missiles back in May or June. The Texeira leaks warned about this eventuality occurring, so Washington knew about it and deliberately didn’t replenish Kiev for some reason. I concluded that this was deliberate sabotage of Kiev’s war effort by Washington. Also, Moscow knows this and does not exploit it at all. However, the competing, but not contradictory, theory was that there were limited supplies and that they were being held back for Israel, which was planning a large-scale operation very soon. When Hamas/Mossad conveniently gave Israel the 9/11 style justification for the Gaza war, I wrote that this was very good news for Russia’s prospects in the Not War.

Israel owns Washington and all of the politicians, left or right, in America.

And, there is a competing lobby that wants war with Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Iran just as much or more than war with China or Russia. I was hoping and praying that this religious Judeo-Christian Zionist lobby would triumph against the Cold Warriors in the US and force the Americans + NATO into a war against Iran. This would alleviate pressure for a time on Russia and divert resources to Israel, like the much-needed missiles for AA. And, hopefully, this is what will happen.

Biden’s people seem to be solidly for the continued destruction of the Slavlands.

The people around Trump, on the other hand, are the more diehard Zionists that seem more focused on furthering Israel’s agenda, and the Biblical end times prophecies. I think that if the “right wing” Zionist part of the US Deep State gets its way, Trump might be allowed to win these next elections and change US focus to a new Desert War to expand Israel’s influence and, again, usher in the end times. Thus, I hope that Trump and his Zionists win and that this drags America into a new Middle East war, thereby making it more difficult to continue arming Kiev and humiliating Putin’s Russia.

In the meantime, for some or other reason, Washington refuses to simply give Kiev all the weapons that they need. Despite this, Kiev is mobilizing a fresh new army. I don’t think there has been any point in the war that Kiev has enjoyed such a numbers advantage over Russia. Their army is going to dwarf Moscow’s rag-tag feudal-lord army of mercenaries, professionals, semi-pros, local militias, ethnic auxiliaries and Sardaukar-style prisoner levies.

When Ukraine attacks again this summer without the necessary AA, it might just be a repeat of what we saw last summer. Neither side seems to want to win this thing outright, just to bleed out the territories and to depopulate their own countries.

Still: Washington’s blood and treasure and attention switching to Iran is good for Russia.

Also: Iran is a good target because its comprador elites have stubbornly refused to develop a nuclear deterrent or neutralize internal opposition in the form of separatist Arab groups, Azeri groups, Liberal opposition and so on. If this tips over into something serious eventually, it will be a turkey shoot for the Americans.

But, it will still be costly.

I looked into myself and discovered that I have little pity or concern for the American soldiers that might die in such a war. See, America does not have a draft. These people have volunteered to advance the interests of their Israeli overlords for a stable paycheck. If they are smart, they will simply not enlist and let the Diversity go to get its limbs blown off in the next war. If not, they deserve what they get.

Merchant-based empires like America have to rely on mercenary armies for a reason.

The natives do not want to participate in these oligarchical wars.

However, if the army is not populated by native patriots, it becomes a standing occupation force and an extension of the police state. I believe that America’s soldiers will shoot at their own people for money, just like spooks and the pigs would, without any hesitation. And, well, the Israelis literally moved to Israel to participate in the empire-building project of Israel. So, forgive me if I shed no tears for them.

I will feel bad for the Iranians, somewhat.

Odds are good that they’re about to experience what its like to try and fight the West with a pro-Western government. A pro-Western occupation government that probably helped assassinate one of its most competent commanders with American support because he was too patriotic, popular and nationalistic for their taste. Either way, I think its time for the anti-Globalist Third Worlders to bear the brunt of the Multipolar struggle for a bit. We Russians do not deserve the sole honor of this struggle.

But hey, we’re getting ahead of ourselves.

It sure was nice of the Iranian leadership to toss a “just cause” into Israel + Washington’s lap like that. The ball is in the court of the plucky rebels who are about to overthrow the empire of the tyrant Shaddam the IV and help the fremen break free and take control of the spice in their lands and fulfill religious prophecy while at it.

All I can say is this so far: it doesn’t look like Kiev is getting any AA missiles any time soon. Best case scenario, Biden’s people might even accept a temporary cease-fire with Moscow, which Putin’s people will take without any hesitation. Shoigu begged for negotiations recently and was rejected again. This is going on all the time, it simply isn’t commented on by ZAnon. Putin’s people are crawling on their knees, alms bowl in hand, begging for terms from their esteemed Western colleagues.

Perhaps they might finally get a scrap tossed their way!

In conclusion: Dune is the superior story to Star Wars and Stargate is no longer popular. But I haven’t seen Part II of Dune yet. I don’t appreciate them making the Fremen all quadroons, but that is to be expected. I wonder if the release dates of the Dune movies coincides with the planned Israeli-American operations in the Middle-East like Star Wars did for the USSR and Stargate for the Gulf wars.

I must look for clues about Bibi’s intentions for Iran in the movie when I finally get around to seeing it in the next couple of days.
