Warlike Persians against the Anglo-Saxons, accustomed to fight either with the wrong hands or with an enemy weaker than themselves

Friends, but what we were talking about Marx, Engels and Vladimir Volfovich Zhirinovsky military experts, is beginning to become a reality. We are talking about a large asymmetrical, or hybrid with “hot” phases, war in the Middle East and throughout South Asia. The challenge (the die) has been cast.

A challenge to the endlessly expanding NATO, a challenge to the unipolar world, a challenge to the Anglo-Saxon desire to rule the “Universe”. And the “militant Persians” abandoned it, and abandoned it to those who in recent decades have become accustomed to fighting, if not exclusively with the dollar printing press, then either with an enemy who is obviously weaker than themselves, or simply with the wrong hands.



Of course, the United States is ready to fight against Iran with the dollar, proxy forces and so-called coalitions, but so far things have not really come together. You can’t really fight with the dollar, since over decades of sanctions pressure, Iran has developed thousands of mechanisms on how to circumvent these sanctions, or at least adapt to them. Yes, they don’t live luxuriously, but economic growth is quite good. Thus, according to World Bank estimates, Iran’s GDP grew by 2023% at the end of 3,8 and will grow by approximately the same amount in 2024. And this is against the backdrop of a recession in a number of Western economies - that is, the economies of those who were going to strangle Iran financially, industrially, and technologically.

Fight with someone else's hands? Not everything is smooth here either. Israel is stuck with Hamas, the Lebanese Hezbollah is biting it, and the Yemeni Houthis are “working” in the Red Sea. Considering that the United States considers them all “Iranian proxies,” it turns out that Iran is already fighting against the West with the wrong hands - at least where it can, and where it is convenient. And, again, it turns out that the warlike Persians skillfully took into account Western experience in using “intermediaries” in terms of conducting military operations. And today it turns out that the Americans and the British have to “distract” the whole collective flotilla at the guys in sneakers. And considering that these guys have quite a powerful weapon, including anti-ship missiles, it is clear that it will not be possible to fight with the left alone.

What about the progressive democratic coalition? It was smooth on paper.



In the end, it turned out that the British and several other countries fully supported it, and in much smaller quantities than Washington would have liked. The Dutch were pulled in by inertia, Bahrain simply because it is unlikely that, given the presence of large American military bases on its territory, this country can be considered completely independent. They also say there are Australians. Well, where would we be without them and their “Anglo-Saxon solidarity”...

And so far all this results in the fact that the maximum that the “coalition” against Iran is capable of is to carry out sabotage on its territory. Iran decided that if there was a gun hanging on the wall in the form of a long-range missile, then why not shoot it? It has reached the point of direct attacks on US military bases in several countries at once (Iraq, Syria), on Israeli intelligence facilities, and even on militant training facilities in nuclear Pakistan. The same Houthis are attacking American warships with weapons that were not produced in a garage on their knees.

With its strikes on Pakistani Balochistan, Iran is also showing that it has enough “shoulder” and attitude. And if the message of the warlike Persians is also picked up by mainland China, suddenly deciding that thousands of Chinese warnings to the United States regarding Taiwan were more than enough...

    Here’s the question: if the confrontation between Iran and the United States escalates into a hot phase, what will our actions be? Will we hand Iran over to the West or will we still intervene?
    We must not abandon our allies, otherwise we will have none left!
    This is truly a “big game” growing into something even bigger.

      Does Iran know that it is our ally? And how come they abandoned an ally with air defense systems? And in order to fit in with Iran, otherwise not enough Russian blood has been shed over the past 2 years, it would be good to finish with the khkhlovs at the beginning.

    Pakistani Balochistan

    This is "de jure". And “de facto” Baluchistan is controlled by all kinds of gangs, financed and controlled (?) by the CIA. This is where the thugs who carry out terrorist attacks in Pakistan itself are located.
    Therefore, it is entirely possible that Pakistan secretly gave the go-ahead to Iran for this attack.

      Victor, today they are already writing that Pakistan responded with a counter missile strike on separatist bases in Iran. It turns out interesting that the separatists on both sides are the same - the Baluchis, like the Kurds, fighting for an independent state. Such wars are simply a dream for the United States, and I do not rule out the possibility that the mess with Yemen will only benefit the United States and they will fight the Houthis exclusively carefully, for show. After all, the main losses (economic) are not borne by the United States, but by Europe and Asia.

        Let's wait and see. Is this an “agreement” like “you are mine, and I am yours” or is it really serious. Iran now has no need to butt heads with Pakistan and is not profitable.

      The Russian Ministry of Defense announced a “big agreement” with Iran
      It seems that the urge has finally arrived, on both sides and finally on ours too. It’s good that in politics we don’t remember past grievances, we give them Griboedov and the massacre of communists, they tell us the intention of dividing Iran after WW2, when the USSR, in violation of the agreement, decided to leave its troops in the north of Iran, organizing a socialist revolution there. And the very first complaint in the history of the UN, created after the war, was precisely from Iran towards the USSR on this matter. And Stalin had to crawl away...

    Moscow and Tehran will sign a large interstate agreement. This was reported by the press service of the Russian Ministry of Defense following a telephone conversation between the head of the department, Sergei Shoigu, and his Iranian counterpart, Mohammad Ashtiani.

    “The parties emphasized their commitment to the fundamental principles of Russian-Iranian relations, including unconditional respect for each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, which will be confirmed in the major interstate agreement being prepared for signing between the Russian Federation and the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the ministry said in a statement.

    Shoigu and Ashtiani discussed issues of military and military-technical cooperation between Russia and Iran, and also exchanged views on the regional security situation. The head of the Russian Ministry of Defense noted the consistent increase in joint efforts of the two countries in “the interests of building a truly equal multipolar world,” the ministry’s press service quotes him as saying, adding that the telephone conversation “took place in a friendly atmosphere and became another

    Why do people in Russia believe that Russia, China and Iran act according to some unified strategic plan and are firm allies in some organization? In fact, all three countries are purely situational partners in the context of confrontation with a single enemy - the United States. And the Americans have long been able to destroy the loose and amorphous coalitions of their competitors. They have many ways to do this. And is it worth it to be so happy about the strengthening of China and Iran, Russia’s rivals on the continent?

    Of course, the Mejlis, completely bought up by the Americans, howled; opposition politicians “went to the people,” organizing rallies, protests, and speeches by religious leaders. The first attempt to arrest Mossadegh by bribed companies of the capital's garrison failed, but three days later a provocation was organized, one of the soldiers fired into the raging crowd... and everything started to happen. Mossadegh surrendered under security guarantees from Mejlis deputies and senior army officials, Tehran was full of festively dressed people (who had received a week's salary and a day off), everyone was chanting “Give us the Shah back!”

    Prime Minister Mossadegh was tried... for treason. I won’t dwell on that farce, but for more than three years they couldn’t fix him; out of fifty counts, the prosecution was able to “prove” only part of the insignificant episode of “contempt of court.” After serving his sentence, Mossadegh was placed under house arrest and died peacefully in 1967. And Iranian oil passed into the hands of British Petroleum (now with a predominance of American investors), the corresponding firm was signed by Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Said CIA officer Kermit/Kim Roosevelt at an awards ceremony: “I owe my throne to God, my people, and you!”

    Metastases
    The main work to overthrow Mossadegh was done by radical Islamist groups, which in June-August 1953 paralyzed the provinces of Iran with terrorist activity and managed to attract the attention of troops loyal to the Government. The greatest activity of militants was recorded from the oil-bearing province of Khuzestan (southwest of the country), and in the impoverished Sistan-Baluchistan in the southeast, an uprising broke out under the slogans of oppression of the Sunni-Baluchis. So the Anglo-Saxons found an inexhaustible reservoir of pressure on Iran, under the Shah and under the rule of the ayatollahs.

    After the Islamic Revolution, the old files of Operation Ajax were retrieved from CIA safes, supplemented by the “Kurdish Question.” But the essence remains the same: the two main states of the Iran/Iraq region are a hodgepodge of different ethnic and religious communities, where either separatist sentiments are strong or there is a gravitational pull towards other centers of religious influence. Since the late 1980s, a tight ring of “Sunni unity” was created against Iran; funding came equally from Washington (Al-Qaeda*) and Riyadh with a coalition of Arab Gulf monarchies. So Iran was put in a tight ring, forcing it to create its own security belt, the notorious “Shiite Crescent” from co-religionists in Syria, Iraq, Yemen, etc.

    We'll see what's next.

    Now about the correct reading of the news, a short lecture. Iran said yesterday (and many times before) that strikes would be carried out on “American and Israeli spy bases that are training centers for anti-Iranian terrorist groups.” The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic many times named the geolocation of these “centers,” and the city of Erbil appeared in every diplomatic note and statement of the military-political leadership. How much has been said about airfields on the territory of Iraqi Kurdistan and Syria, from where American reconnaissance drones fly out 24/7, weapons are supplied to the barmalei, and reinforcements arrive.

    Yesterday’s strikes have nothing to do with the United States, which is why the Hegemon is keeping mum. Not because he is not ready for escalation with Iran, not because of emptying arsenals and brain death in the “decision-making centers” in Washington (which is partly true), support for Israel, the Houthi factor or Hezbollah.

    The time has not come for a full-fledged clash of powers and the region is flooded with “proxy forces” of both sides; the first round of the coming war will be theirs. Filled with dozens of Ajax operations against Tehran, Damascus, Beirut, Sanaa. With total terror, a battle of all against all.

    The Iranians realized that it was possible and the time had come. After the spectacular failure of Western weapons and military planning by NATO “strategists” in Ukraine. After the spectacular performance of the Russian Geraniums, who knows how many Shaheds Iran has? And now that the Israeli army, considered the best in the East, is stuck in Gaza, the IDF is definitely not an adversary to Iran. The Iranians are definitely not afraid of the coalition; they cannot cope with the Yemenis. An equally interesting question is, do NATO countries have shells to fight against Iran? And something says that Iran is capable of firing more shells than all NATO countries. But NATO still has air defense systems, or everyone is stuck in Ukraine. So, by all indications, the time has come for Iran to issue bills to the United States, NATO, and Western countries.

    Are there any commentators who were in Iran in 2023?
    Can words passed through four people be perceived as reality in Iran?
    “They don’t have the same luxury as in many countries. But even though they don’t live richly, they have work, I saw working factories, there were a lot of cars, not like in Moscow. I didn’t see drunk people. That’s probably their faith. I didn’t see beggars. There was garbage. "No on the streets at all. This was a very big surprise. The women are strange. They seem to be hiding. Maybe it’s different in small towns, but for work purposes it’s normal to live here for a week. Even here in some places it will be worse."
    Is this the view of a foreigner?

    they should get the fuck out of the Middle East; they say in their TV that the US is under attack, as if PERSIAN GULF region is US territory.
    They are officially an occupier since Iraq and Syria repeatedly asked them to leave their countries. They should realize that west Asia was the Persians' sphere of influence for 3000 years. Puppet Shah gave it away, and we are taking it back. Russia and China know this and respect that fact.
    The US should do too before leading us to World War III and human extinction.
    There was a Roman emperor (Valerian) who similarly believed they should be in charge of the whole planet, so he decided to take on the Persians. Long story short, he is now known in history as the Footstool of Persia.
    His entire army was crashed by Shapur I, king of Sassanid Persians, and captured alive, and he played the roll footstool to be used by Shapur the great every time he was getting on his horse for the rest of his life
    The Roman-Persian War is the record holder for the longest war in human history, with 700 years of fighting, and the fact that you don't see even one movie about it should tell you how humiliating it was for the mighty Romans/West . The same thing happened with the Persian and Ottoman Empires.
    you may say Persians are experts of humiliating those who feel too confident against Persians
    They should let go of the uncivilized suicide bomber factory known as Saudi Arabia and other Wahabi Arabs.

    Instead, they should liberate themselves from the Zionists who control the US.
    isn't humiliating that an Israeli official recorded bragging that in US you can criticize God but not Israel

      Persia (Persian immortals), and you (Iranians) and us in Russia, still have a lot to change and correct in the perception of history over the last 3000 years to which you refer. For starters, take the Greco-Persian wars, where, according to all Russian textbooks at school, we were taught to be on the side of the Greeks. And the feat of the 300 Spartans is generally considered a canonical feat in world history.
      And the entire Russian history of wars with the Persians is no worse than the wars with the Turks, where we squeezed out the Caucasus and Central Asia from you, and even attempted to destroy the whole of northern Iran after 1945. But they say that in the East they don’t forget such grievances and sooner or later, a knife will be stuck in the back...

        Persian immortals, both you (Iranians) and us in Russia, still have a lot to change and correct in the perception of history over the last 3000 years to which you refer. To begin with, let's take the Greco-Persian wars, where, according to all Russian textbooks at school, we were taught to be on the side of the Greeks. And the feat of 300 Spartans is generally considered a canonical feat in world history.
        And the entire Russian history of wars with the Persians is no worse than the wars with the Turks, where we wrested the Caucasus and Central Asia from you, and even encroached on the whole of northern Iran after 1945. And they say that in the East they do not forget such grievances and sooner or later, a knife will be stuck in the back...


        That's very saddens me to hear Russians are in school rooting for barbarian Greeks who weren't even cultured and sophisticated enough to wear come up with a cloth that can be comfortable in battle like Iranian who invented trousers, shoes, and garments. As it's clear in Greece's own depictions of battle,(see the pictures) they are naked while the Persians are fully wearing uniform, etc.
        Maybe Russians chose Greeks because Hitler chose the Persian Achaemenid empire as the start of enlightenment. Russians felt they had to do the opposite.
        Hitler picked Aryan as a word to represent the ideal because all the Persian rulers in their descriptions in various archeological sites carved into the rock wall through time for more than a millennium had one sentence in common in the last 3000 years: “I am the Aryan king from an Aryan lineage, king of all Aryans and non-Aryan",(see the picturs)
        he specifically exempted Russians from having any kinship to Iranians exactly because the Russians had the strongest case to be Iranian/Aryan of the west considering they are proven based on archeological evidence as descendants from Sarmatians and Scythian (both are Iranian) mixed with the native population while Germans only had heredot (Greeks historian) description of Iranian tribes where he mention Germans as one of Iranian tribes which is weak argument considering that could be a lost Iranian tribe with coincidental similar name. So he had to outright reject the Russian as having any Iranian kinship let alone to be next in line to carry the Aryan torch after 3000 years done by Persians, and due to the decline of Persians, he is accused now is the Germans's turn to carry the torch for the next 3000 thousand years.
        But now that he is seven feet underground, Russia should correct the curse and reverse the decision which was a reactionary choice at the time.
        We are distant cousins, and we shouldn't teach our children negative and wrong information.
        Iran doesn't see Russia as a continuation of the USSR, and we do not put the crime of stealing our land by the USSR on Russians. Stalin was Georgian.
        That being said, Russia should prove that it's trustworthy because all sign says it's not but in case of Iran being trustworthy i think the evidence is overwhelming.
        the most obvious and politically beneficial is for Iran is to abandon Palestinians, especially when there is nothing that relates Palestinian and Persian to gather and you can argue that the opposite considering Palestinians are Arab, which is Persian's enemy, and they were on Saddam's side during the war with Iraq and they are Sunni, and they were against Assad in Syria. Iran and Israel are the only non-Arab nations among a sea of ​​uncivilized Sunny Arabs who love suicide bombing in crowded civilian areas. If Iran accepts Israel, Iran would become the West's sweetheart, who is more powerful and ifluncal than anybody in the region without being an occupant and have the same amount of gas and oil without being uncultured like Arabs. West loves to give Middle East to Iran to rule over unruly Arabs in order to west focus on Russia and China but Iran rejected all of this only because of its nobility doesn't allow them to abandon the most oppressed people in the world, who not only cannot do anything in return for Iran but iran have to spend money on them for weapons and training.
        not to mention Iran rejected the US offer of renewed nuclear deal and lifting of all sanction if Iran stop helping Russia, only to Russia turn around and spit on Iran's face by siding with Arabs in join statement about small islands on the Persian Gulf, which is with all due respect the dumbest move Russia made in the current climate.
        And if we go before the Ukraine war, there is a 10-year delay when Iran was at the highest risk of being attacked for S300 that we paid fully in advance. so now tell me who is justified in fear of being betrayed in further? iran or russia.

          Persia (Persian immortals), I like your patriotism, love for the Motherland. Even if sometimes nationalism and a sense of superiority over other peoples, especially over the Arabs, creep into the text. I am keen on studying the history of religions and religious wars and understand why Russia did not become an ally of Persia, but gravitated towards Christian Europe, accepting the Orthodox faith of Christ, and not Mohammed or Buddhism. And hence, all the preferences in textbooks for the Orthodox Greeks, in wars with the Persians or Turks. Here we are unlikely to be able to rewrite the textbooks, but reflecting the position on the part of Persia would be correct.
          When you emphasize the nationality of Stalin, who is Georgian and not Russian, anyone in Russia will tell you that Stalin is more Russian than the most indigenous Russian nationalist, if you note his services to Russia. And at the same time, the most cruel tyrant in relation to the Russian people. Whether this dualism can digest your Persian mind, I don’t know, but we have to live in this paradigm.
          About the betrayal with the S-300, I myself mentioned it to you, and now this is recognized at the highest level in Russia. Is Iran capable of admitting its mistakes in history and how did it suddenly end up on Hitler’s side, which is why the USSR and Great Britain had to occupy Iran? Or why does Iran now deny the Holocaust at the state level? We are not even talking about a quantitative attitude towards the death of other peoples, but about the targeted extermination of Gypsies, Jews and Slavs. Why not separate the right to exist of Israel and the fact of genocide against Jews in Germany. Or are we in Russia being incorrectly presented with this position of Iran?

            About the Tomb Islands in the Persian Gulf. I saw that our diplomat made a statement at the Gulf Forum. was criticized with the recommendation - it would be better to remain silent! Are there any official statements from Iran regarding the Kuril Islands or is Iran wisely keeping silent and not expressing its position, not wanting to spoil relations with Japan or the Russian Federation?
            I know that Iran has a lot of territorial claims against its neighbors and it’s better not to get involved in your disputes. It is simply impossible to find completely unambiguous arguments in favor of any side there - everyone will have their own truth. After the collapse of the USSR, even Abkhazia has territorial claims to Russia over half of the village of Aibga near Krasnaya Polyana, which is divided by a stream.

            Or is this position of Iran being mispresented to us in Russia?

            Yes, , this position is misrepresented and its not Iranian position, but that is not surprising when you consider the 96% of worldwide broadcasting is owned and controlled by Zionists, which has nothing to do with Jews except to use it as front, despite the fact that 99% of Zionists aren't practicing Judaism and are mostly atheists.
            So now, let me tell you the reality.
            Iran didn't the Holocaust because Iran isn't one person, and you know you are in propaganda territory when they say Iran instead of saying one of the Iranian presidents who has not even been in power for the last 12 years or so.
            But even in that case, it would still be a lie because Ahmadinejad didn't deny Holocaust he questioned the logic around it, and questioning something isn't the denial of it because he didn't question its existence of it.
            I'm 100% sure you would agree with his argument as soon as I presented it without a Zionist twist on it, and you would see that it is completely logical.
            He asks why the Holocaust is the only topic in the world that you would be thrown in jail for studying in many places, such as France and Germany, where some university professors are jailed, and Ahmadi Nejad himself, being a university professor, felt the need to speak out on their behalf and asked why you can question God and not anything relate to Holocaust?.
            He specifically said 25 million Russians had died in World War II, so what's the reason for this 6 million being more important? (This sentence proves that he accepts that it occurred)
            He says there is some abnormality at play. And reactions to his position actually proved his argument.
            He asked, Where was the place where the Holocaust happened? Europe.
            He asked who was responsible for it.? a European, specifically Germans.
            Why should Palestinians lose their land and dignity for the crimes that they had nothing to do with?
            He is confirmed that the lack of logic in the issue is the reason they had to turn it into an unforgivable taboo to question, and as soon as you do, they smear you. The fact that they did smear him by saying he denied the Holocaust proved him right.
            They potray Iran as anti-Jewish nation despite Iran being the home to the largest Jewish community in the region outside Israel  with 600 active synagogues and a permanent seat on the Iranian Parliamentand you can arge they have more rights than average Iranian since jews and Christians are allowed to drink make and sell alcoholic drinks while average Iranians cannot.
            Iranian Jewish community existence is a thorn in Israel's throat because it validates Iran's case of being anti-Zionist, not anti-Jewish. so much so that Israel literally announced $60k as a bribe to each Jewish Iranian willing to leave Iran as a political refugee either to Israel or the US, which means they can't go back since they are refugees. but Iranian Jews rejected the offer and said their Iranian identity wasn't for sale.
             BTW you should know that Jewish Persians in Israel are treated horribly and are constantly arrested as spies for Iran especially if they post anything remotely sympathetic to Palestinians or Iranians on their social media. It seems that the phrase "every accusation is a confession" is true about everything Israel accuses others of.

              Persia (Persian immortals) I know that Iran even accepted Jewish refugees when Hitler came to power in Germany. I have been studying the “Jewish Question” for a long time and in detail, reading various scientific (and not so scientific) works of various philosophers and scientists.
              I know very well about what you are writing about, how it is not customary in a “cultured” society to raise the topic of Jews, where you will immediately be accused of anti-Semitism. These topics are described in detail by Igor Shafarevich in his books “Russophobia” and “The Three Thousand Year Riddle”.
              The way Ahmadinejad spoke about the Holocaust would be worth reading verbatim. But even if he went too far there, I agree, you can’t judge the whole country by one person.

                I am an average Persian who works as a tattoo artist. As for religion, I do not practice it. Sorry if I'm disappointed you, since there is nothing unique about me. But if you are wondering why an atheist like me supports the Islamic republic, the answer is straightforward: no matter who is in charge, I am not a traitor to my country; even if our country is led by the worst Iranian, it is still better than being ruled by a puppet who prioritizes foreign interests over ours and, most importantly, our pride.

                Fortunately, Iran has wise leaders with exceptional foresight, particularly in foreign policy, so the country did not have to choose between puppet regimes and worse leaders. We may have some issues with internal politics, but 99% of Iranians who live in Iran completely support foreign policy.

                There are a lot of false beliefs about Iran's political system. It is a democracy, albeit an Islamic one. with high voter turnout for both presidential and legislative elections, higher in every western nation
                The Zionist-controlled media refers to Khamenei as the supreme leader, implying that he, like the DPRK's supreme leader, makes all decisions, although I don't know how much they lie about the DPRK.
                In fact, in practice, Khamenei decides nothing; the most he can do is suggest something to the president, and that is extremely rare. And the last time he did it was over a nuclear agreement, which he advised against due to the US being difficult to trust, but as you know, the president decided to make a deal.
                The most accurate description of Khamenei's position that I can come up with is spiritual leader.
                Even westerners indirectly confirm this by acknowledging the shift in politics toward the west when moderate, liberal, or conservative that the west calls hardliners, which shouldn't be the case if Khamenei is the supreme leader.

                  You slightly surprised me with your atheism, but did not upset me at all. I myself am like that and probably even more of an atheist than you. But this does not in the least prevent me from studying and being interested in the history of religions, their differences and the causes of religious wars.
                  Therefore, it is no secret to me that the Iranian Shiites are enmity with the Sunni Arabs, because of seemingly completely insignificant principles of following the Koran. In Orthodoxy it is even worse. They are often not friends even with each other, with Orthodox Christians, much less with Catholics or Protestants at all.

                    Shia is basically Persian culture + Islam, mines extremism. There isn't any enmity between Shia and Sunny, differences, yes, but not enmity; rather, there is enmity between Sunni Wahabi/Salafi and Shia.
                    which, as always, its an Anglo-Saxon conspiracy, but since you already mentioned that you like this kind of history, I try to summarize the history as short as possible 
                    Wahabism is a very recent phenomenon, recent enough that you can see the photograph of its founder, Mohamed ibn Abdelwahab. it was the 18th century, and he was very egotistical and fanatical, believing he didn't need any scholarship to interpret the Quran, and many other radical views toward Shia Persians. he was so radical that his own relatives disowned him, after that, a British spy (you can read his diary in a book called Mr. Humpher) manipulated this stupid Arab by a simple trick. He told him that he dreamed that the prophet Mohammad had chosen you( Mohamed ibn Abdelwahab) to be the one who purified Islam to its original form, and he pretended that he wanted to help him achieve that. he 
                    through manipulation or otherwise, pushed him to pick the thing he wanted as law, such as if you kill the Shia, you are granted the heavens because they are still Zorastrians who pretend to be Muslims.
                     The old divide and rule, but his primarily objective was to make him as barbaric as possible in order to use him as an example to British people and argue that these are savages who need to be ruled over for their own good. 
                    my point is that there's not so much a Shia-Sunni issue; it's rather a Wahabi problem that wants to kill all humans who are not Wahabi, above all the Shia. but They kill Sunnis as well if they do not become Wahabi 
                    how stupid can you be to want to die and kill innocenet for a cult its mastermind already admitted its a hoax

          Quote: Persia
          Russians are in school rooting for barbarian Greeks who weren't even cultured and sophisticated enough to wear come up with a cloth that can be comfortable in battle like Iranian who invented trousers

          Funny. The Greeks discovered mathematical and physical laws that the whole world still uses today. And the Persians invented pants.

            Persians, specifically a Persian scientist named Khwarizmi, invented the algorithm and algebra that are used in your computer and smartphone.
            Your own graduation outfit assuming you did graduate from any university, is a tribute to the renowned Persian scientist, mathematician, and physician who invented university and modern science, Avicenna, by trying to mimic his appearance. In other words, Persians are the symbol of higher education.
            I am confident he accomplished more than what Aristotle could achieve in 100 lifetimes. His book on medicine and the symptoms of different diseases was THE book that physicians relied on as the source of knowledge for centuries, which, remarkable, is still being taught to students in medical universities.

            The system of governing methods and human rights invented by Persians 2500 years ago is what influenced the American founding fathers in their constitution, namely the federal system, which is a carbon copy of the Persian satrapy. Each satrap could introduce different laws based on their costume and traditions, as long as they did not violate the core values ​​of the empire. That's why today, in some states, you will be executed for murder, and in another, you will be facing only 5 years. That's not my speculation; that's admitted by even the most anti-Iran official in the US and in the museum about Thomas Jefferson.
            Even the UN is completely inspired by a similar system in the Persian Empire, known as the Gate of All Nations. Each year, all rulers would come to a specific building called the Gate of All Nations and ask the Persians to help them. They may be the judge in their problems, or they may have some problems with the Persians themselves, and they would get the chance to tell it to the king of kings directly.
            here some ancient Persian invention that are used today

    With its strikes on Pakistani Balochistan, Iran is also showing that it has enough “shoulder” and attitude. And if the message of the warlike Persians is also picked up by mainland China, suddenly deciding that thousands of Chinese warnings to the United States regarding Taiwan were more than enough...
    Yes, Iran is showing, but no one knows how all this will end for it (by the way, the socio-economic and political problems there are very serious). The thought about China is from the realm of fantasy and wishes of the author, who forgot to ask the PRC leadership why it needs to “pick up the message of the warlike Persians.”

    It is not for nothing that the Americans are strengthening their force in the Pacific Ocean, especially unmanned aerial vehicles.

    Yes, the Persians are much smarter than some, for whom the axiom of the West, which has been fighting with the help of “proxy” for many decades, is still inaccessible to understanding. Well, like with air and sea UAVs, which have been actively used by the West for 50 years.
    The main thing is to create something very large, expensive in a single copy, transport it to all the booths and consider the issue closed.

    In my opinion, Clausewitz also said that if you fight for a long time, the enemy adapts to the opponent. So the Persians adapted... Well done! And Russia needs to make the most of the situation and harm the arrogant Saxons everywhere as much as possible!!! They deserve it, don't they???
