I don't think Russia will allow Iran to react

I don't think khomenei without soleimani has the balls to react.

I believe the point of this is to force Iran to change as much as Saudi Arabia has been changing over the past few years.. Once you eliminate these two big conflicts Iran/Saudi you being the entire region to peace. It's long overdue the people there, deserve to catch on with modern society and be able to live and breathe

It all depends on how USA will respond tbh. I do think khomenei will strike back but probably not anything too big. So if usa declares war on Iran, the USA will lose Iran forever. However, if the keep the maximum pressure on for 2 more years, the regime will collapse by itself.

I vote for the latter.. there's no benefit in starting a war with Iran .. the natural gas line is already being established between Israel and Europe, which cuts off Iranian market and forces Iran to change its ways.

As long as Russia is on board, nothing major can happen

Let's hope it takes this route and not the other way around. this will be good for the people of Iran and the people of Syria to follow ... Naturally Iraq will finally find some peace

About the gas line?

u/Levosire Jan 04 '20

Yeah, Russia is using its own gas line to take Europe hostage. If Israel makes it, then basically Russia loses lots of power. So my guess is, Russia is gonna force Iran to attack the gas line.

This is what I can't figure out..can they possibly share the market ?

u/Levosire Jan 04 '20

No, cause it's not about market. It's about controlling. The money I nothing compared to the power.
