Reply to what? Trump started this war.
Nice of you to show up AFTER the fighting is over.
Bcz of fearing US !!😂 ….
oh yeah wait wait . PEOPLES ARE WATCHING.IRANIANS DONT CARE WHAT TRUMP IS SAYING
The UK seems to have a lot pro-Iran commenters on their news post. Is that what the average UK citizen resonates or is it a minority that take over the comments? Just curious.
REMOVE TRUMP.
THE REMAKING OF THE MIDDLE EAST
The Oded Yinon middle east plan of 1982 and Robin Wright map of 2013 show that smaller fragmented middle eastern countries will increase the domination of Isrel, the sole nuclear power in the Middle East. The Greater Isrel plan will be achieved by three ways : to annex territory, create military buffer zones, and have influence over neighbouring countries without actually occupying that land by bringing their oil through pipelines to Askelon Isreli port for Europe. As well, the “Hexagon of Alliances” will have Isrel as the central regional power with India, Azerbaijan, Greece and Cyprus as allies around it giving diplomatic support and trade / business investment.
The 2026 war has damaged the Arab gulf countries economically and psychologically and exposed ethnic and religious divisions in them. These divisions will be exploited by Isrel to create disunity and friction inside and between the Gulf countries which has already started with Saudi Arabia and UAE differences. UAE has recently accepted Isreli Iron Dome battery and supporting IDF personnel on its soil for its defence. More GCC countries will turn to Isrel for security and to have their oil pipelines transit through Isrel to avoid paying the oil toll to Iran. These pipeline projects include Europe-Asia Pipeline, The Gulf Oil Bypass pipeline to join Trans-Isrel Pipeline (Tipline) at Askelon port for Europe. Once operational these pipelines will reduce the oil toll amount collected by Iran and REDUCE the Gulf oil going to China to contain it. China gets 50% of its oil through GCC countries and Iran. The Gulf countries must choose wisely between Iran / China (BRICS) or US / Isrel (Petrodollar).
Iran has been set back decades with factories and military facilities destroyed. This has led to large scale unemployment and loss of Govt. tax revenue. It is the perfect conditions to stir street protests and overthrow the regime. The shipping toll can save the Regime and Iran from financial collapse.
The weakened Iranian proxy forces can no longer defend the Greater Isrel plan now being implemented in South Lebanon, Syria, West Bank, and Gaza through illegal annexation and ongoing new settlements. Recently, several thousand people from India are being brought to Isrel as a lost tribe from biblical times. The aim is to increase the Jewish population and build new settlements on stolen land. The international borders of Isrel have never been defined !
It may appear that USA has been forced to leave the Middle East after destruction of its bases. Actually USA is no longer dependent on middle eastern oil with the largest oil reserves of Venezuela with it. The increasing use of electric cars will make demand of oil less in future years.
The US blockade of the Iranian toll blockade has ensured that the pipelines now are being fast tracked to Isrel. The Gulf countries will be under Isreli domination with the oil pipelines going through it. It is well known that in each ruling Gulf family there are individuals that will become faithful US supporters if installed to high luxury positions. Hence USA can remotely keep its influence in the region with less US bases.
The 2026 war has aimed four birds with one stone. Bringing Gulf oil to Isreli port for Europe increasing its regional domination, containing China by reducing GCC oil going to it, splitting GCC unity and weakening Iran.

Apparently the U S can't defeat Iran or make them surrender. Big U S failure.
Dear UK, Trump's America does not deserve your help.
Please do not put your military personnel in harms way for Trump's self-imposed, illegal war.
Let them reap what they have sewn and deal with Trump accordingly.
UK sends "a warship". Wow ! Rule Britannia !!
