Iran has told the US via intermediaries that if it strikes Iranian soil directly, Tehran will itself hit back at American assets in the Middle East, drawing the two sides into a direct conflict.

Tehran warns Washington but regime unsure of degree of support for interventionist foreign policy
its so farcical how other states have to spell out that attacking them is an act of war because the US & Europe are so impudent
Damn...when you put it like that...
There are decades of fucking around, then there are weeks of finding out.
If it's not already, that needs to be a tagline
So when are we going to actually start calling it WW3?
Did WW1 ever really end?
The Scramble for Africa and its consequences will never end before imperialism is dead.
Honestly, that's probably exactly what the US wants.
I'm sure people like Vicky Nuland and Lindsey Graham are salivating for this.

Ameribro here. I do not want this. I want us to stop Israel from committing genocide in Gaza, not start a global conflict that's going to get untold number of people killed, maimed, and displaced over defending fucking genocide. My government, however, is fucking insane, and seems quite partial to
boosting Ratheon and Lockheed stocksgetting everyone killed.
Iran should have kept the nukes...
Let's hope they did.
Israel gets to play the pretend game, after all. Why shouldn't Iran?
Flaunting it openly like DPRK is pretty stylish too ngl
Did they have confirmed nukes at any point? I thought they agreed to stop their nuclear program at energy production only.
No. They never had nuclear weapons. They’d have to do tests which you can detect with seismographs and which can be confirmed with testing of air for particles on the borders of the country.
Additionally Isn’treal would have acted differently. Either suing for peace or forcing the US to join it in an attack.
Additionally one of the top Islamic authorities there opined nuclear weapons were un-Islamic.
I honestly didn't think we'd go as far as we have to protect Israel, I certainly never would've thought it would be as far as protecting them genociding the people whose lands they stole and are squatting on (hiding evidence of land theft by killing and driving off the previous owners).

TBF- this was always ongoing. It wasn't "blatant systemic destruction of all hospitals, UN offices, and outright deprivation of all necessities of life" the way it has become now, but the genocide has been ongoing for 76 years at this point.
And considering the Anglo-Europeans' history of past and present genocides- in their settler-colonies in the US, Canada, Australia, and NZ to this day, and historically in their support of South African apartheid, Rhodesia, French Algeria, British Kenya, etc... none of this is surprising behavior coming from them.
That they're bringing the world closer and closer to WW3 over Israel on the other hand is maybe unexpected- but honestly? If not Israel, they're in unofficial war against Russia, and blatantly seeking war with China at the moment as well. I suppose at some point (a line crossed by the west long, long ago- perhaps 500 years ago) the pretense of peace stops being an option altogether- and perhaps world war is the inevitable outcome, from having the most warlike nation in history, founded on and still maintained through genocide, slavery (prison slavery nowadays), and global destabilization, having reached the pinnacle of hegemony.
Whatever it is, I hope AmeriKKKa ceases to be a country within my lifetime. Humanity will be all the better off for it.

Hell yeah world war 3 let's gooo
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The warning comes as Iran waits on high alert to see how Joe Biden responds to the death of three US servicemen deemed by Washington to have been killed by a Tehran-backed militia based in Syria.
He said the White House knew well that “a political solution” was required to end the carnage in the besieged Gaza Strip and the current crisis in the Middle East.
With a US attack on Iranian positions inside Syria seen as the most likely option, Iran’s deputy interior minister, Seyyed Majid Mirahmadi, in a meeting with his Syrian counterparts discussed the crisis and insisted the so-called “axis of resistance” was on the verge of victory.
But Iran itself faces its own challenges: unrest has broken out across Kurdistan after the execution on Monday of four Kurds accused by the regime of co-operating with Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agencies.
Although support for Palestinians is widespread through Iranian society, the regime is worried that the state of the economy and general political disaffection could drive down turnout at parliamentary elections in March, undercutting its claim to legitimacy.
In an attempt to boost participation in the vote, the number of ballot boxes has doubled, and candidates are being given additional time on TV and radio to try to generate an atmosphere of excitement.
