RT Will Schryver (@imetatronink)🔥 48 HOURS 🔥Trump seeking to reclaim escalation supremacy.I think US magazine depth is nearing exhaustion, and that, more significantly, US air fleet mission-capable rates have plummeted over the course of the past three weeks.This is desperate bravado speaking: ...

Is the president in the process of winding down this war or escalating. >> Again, they're not mutually exclusive. Sometimes you have to escalate to deescalate.The president's been very clear from the beginning that the goals are destroy the Iranian air force and the navy to the completely demolish their missile capabilities, demolish their ability to replenish those capabilities, make sure the Iranians cannot have a nuclear weapon and stop their ability to project power internationally. And the president wi ...

The escalation is a catastrophe for Congo’s civilians. The possibility of respite looks remote https://t.co/HDg7hTp0bA ...

RT Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) (@adamscochran)Based on the emergency meeting of Israel’s war cabinet I’m guessing Trump’s illegal threats are because Israel told him they intend to escalate.The strike on Israel tonight was major, and Israel tries to solve its problems by escalation.Trump can’t afford another escalation and hopes bullying and threats will solve his problems. ...

RT Trita Parsi (@tparsi)Trump just threatened to bomb all of Iran's power plants if Iran doesn't open the Straits within 48h.We know Iran will not comply with this threat.If Trump follows through on his threats, Tehran will likely strike at energy facilities throughout the Persian Gulf as well as in Israel. By now, it is really foolish to think it won't.An already bad situation will worsen with rising oil and gas prices, higher grocery costs in the US, and the closure of most remaining exit ramps.Escalation ...

Tonight everybody, the president also saying there's not going to be a ceasefire in Iran. Full stop. Listen to this.>> We can have dialogue. I don't want to do a ceasefire. You know, you don't do a ceasefire when you're literally obliterating the other side.>> So that is after we reported just 24 hours ago that thousands more US Marines are heading to the region. You see the USS Boxer there deploying from San Diego. Both sides hammering each other on the Persian New Year.Take a look at this moment that an I ...

RT Danny (Dennis) Citrinowicz ,داني سيترينوفيتش (@citrinowicz)News flash from the future:Even a blockade of Kharg Island would not force Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.This (yet again) reflects a persistent misunderstanding of Iran’s strategic doctrine. For Tehran, control over the Strait is not just economic leverage—it is a core component of regime survival and deterrence.Under pressure, Iran is more likely to escalate than concede.Reopening the Strait would likely require one of two extreme options: ...

RT Drop Site (@DropSiteNews)🚨 BREAKING: Israel has struck Iran’s South Pars gas field, the world’s largest natural gas field and a core pillar of Iran’s energy supply.The major escalation comes alongside reported impacts on other oil and petrochemical facilities in the Assaluyeh area of Bushehr province, according to multiple reports.IRGC-linked Tasnim News issued an urgent warning urging people to immediately leave major oil and gas sites in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar, saying they had become “direct ...

RT Teodor Mitew (@tedmitew)I agree with you and at the same time am afraid you're too optimistic. The Russians have indeed been remarkably restrained, controlling the escalation ladder despite countless provocations. Btw there is growing discontent in Ru about their restraint, particularly now, after Iran started ticking off US bases in the ME.With Iran, the US is directly involved in an escalation battle it can't control. Neither Iran nor China will allow the US an easy out, and why should they? ...

Get ready for more escalation, @johnauthers writes. The TACO window is closing (via @opinion) https://t.co/AhLgW0vyZ8 ...
