>In recent days, two developments took place near Syria's borders that suggest the intentions Iran and its proxies hold for that country and the surrounding region. To the west, the Lebanese Shiite militia Hezbollah held a military parade in al-Qusayr, Syria, while to the east, the Shiite militias known as Popular Mobilization Units (PMUs) captured Tal Afar airport in Iraq.
>After taking the airport, Hadi al-Ameri, a former Iraqi minister who heads the Iranian-linked Badr Organization, made a telling declaration: "Tal Afar will be the starting block for the liberation of all the area...to the Syrian border and beyond." Iran does not have a border crossing with Syria, but Tal Afar, located some forty miles west of Mosul on the main road to Syria, could provide one. If its proxies do in fact capture the town, Iran would likely be able to establish a corridor from the Iraqi border province of Diyala, up through the Hamrin Mountains, and all the way up to Tal Afar en route to the Syrian border. On the other side of Syria, Iranian-backed forces already have multiple routes to Lebanon via al-Qusayr and other towns in the region.
Once again Iran rears its ugly head. They are by far the strongest middle eastern nation east of Israel, particularly after what has happened to Iraq. They already wield enormous influence in Syria. If the fall of ISIS allows them to expand their access and influence in Iraq, the results could be disastrous. Syria and Iraq are already devastated and couldn't possibly resist.
Especially with the ongoing war in Yemen, it is becoming increasingly apparent that if the US does not continue to intervene, Iran will be in position to essentially dominate the Middle East as far west as the Israeli border, either through conquest or soft power. Saudi Arabia is frankly a disorganized joke of a country and can't provide a real counterbalance. Obviously none of us want to bankrupt ourselves fighting this war, so what can we do?
The Israelis have nukes, they aren't going anywhere.

>muslim You're the enemy. If you wanted help against the kikes you shouldn't have attacked us. I don't care if it was in retaliation. You can't kill my brothers and be let off.
Liam Wilson
>literally pro Iran You realize they hate us, right? Is it truly in our interest to allow the ME to consolidate under a hostile power?
Ian Carter
Back to rthedonald please
Hunter Martin
What?
Chase Bailey
They hate our government which is controlled by kikes. Only boomers and ptg hate Iran.
Owen Taylor
We can't do anything.after the fall of Aleppo the Syrian government as the upper hand and Iran and Russia win.
Landon Phillips
Sure, but the fact is that if they become the dominant power we aren't going to be able to be friends with them. It's just not possible, we've chosen our side and that's not going to change.
So should we still just let them win?
Jaxson Gray
Well if we can block Iran from expanding its passage through Iraq it could possibly be contained.
Personally I was for letting Assad win years ago. It would have been much less bloody and both Iraq and Syria would be stronger today.
Justin Carter
I think the global order needs to collapse for Europe to save itself. Putting a stop to the petro dollar is a good start. I don't expect us to let them do anything but I hope they do.
Dominic Walker
bump. I think it is more like a "pipe bridge" than a land bridge.

Dylan Martinez
I hope Iran does garner more control over the middle east. The Arab states have proven time and time again that they can not be trusted, and Iranians place Iran first, Islam second on top of which they are majority Shia. I respect Iranian nationalism in the same way I respect pan-European nationalism as well as nationalism of the individual states. Israel can not lead in that part of the world because of historical and vast ideological differences, nor would I want them too as they've betrayed us, the USA, and other European states far too often for personal gain. Frankly, I'd rather have Iran as an ally than Israel.
Samuel Phillips
Good. Iran is the master race of the middle east and rightfully should rule the entire region. I wish them luck. Hopefully they will genocide the Arabs after conquering them.
Noah Gonzalez

Blake Taylor
>Iranians place Iran first, Islam second Yeah that's why we overthrew the secular nationalist monarch and installed sharia law ;) >on top of which they are majority Shia Our country is pan islamic. Shia supremacists hate the Iranian government and being a shia supremacist is illegal. If you are found out you will be arrested or put under house arrest. That would be unislamic. Arabs are our brothers in Islam. A possibility though would be establishing a new caliphate under the islamic republic. Nice buzzword for hearing things you don't like
Isaiah Butler
being a shia supremacist is illegal and unislamic*
Ethan Reyes
really dont care. worst thing they can do is refuse to export oil, which will make our tar sands super viable and profitable, and theres more oil here than there.
Samuel Lopez
>You realize they hate us, right? unless you're part of (((them))) - totally insulated from terrorism/ muslims in general or using them for whatever nefarious plans you have in mind i'd rather have a iran/ israel balance of power over a saudi one
Before replying to your nonsense, I'm going to need you to post a time-stamped image with just your nose in it.
Jack Nelson
>so what can we do? We could let Israel deal with their own problems.
Nicholas Carter
Iran is an enemy of the Sunnis (Saudi Arabia and its allies), who are the biggest exporters of terrorism in the world. Iran dominating the ME is concerning, but at the same time I imagine such a shift in power would upset many mudslimes in the West that they would begin to shift their focus on Iran instead of the "evil" West.
Grayson Moore
I read something about israel getting ready for a war with lebanon this summer
they already have tanks at the boarder and have crossed into lebanon.
Samuel Wilson
Trump will not allow the terrorists to lose their territory
Cameron Garcia
Sounds like a neocon fantasy considering that Syria was already buttbuddies with Iran and Iraq is a Shiite nation and hasn't been exactly hostile to Iran.
Then you're retarded
>haha dude let's give neocons and warmongers in the West more reason to get involved in the middle east
Jackson Russell
Goddamn if you people control all world finances, where do you get that audacity to ask goyim to pay their own extermination?
Michael Sullivan
Iran is pan islamic. Our constitution gives all the same and equal rights to both shia and sunni. The Saudi royal family are secularists themselves and do not represent muslims. And wahhabists do not represent sunnis. But nice try at playing divide and conquer shill
Nathan Hall
>Is it truly in our interest to allow the ME to consolidate under a hostile power? yeah Anyway they'll still be grappling with the Gulf Arabs. Let them gas Israel and Riyadh and blitzkrieg Mecca, do everyone a favor.
Carson Mitchell
Well, I for one, would like to divide and conquer the middle east. I'm just waiting for you all to kill each other. We're going to annex the Jews, too. It'll be fun.
Anthony Rivera
>Iraq is a Shiite nation funny joke
Colton Collins
A good portion of it is, actually. The other part is Sunni. This is one reason why the fall of Saddam fucked everything up. He was holding these worthless savages together. Then, it became our job, but we withdrew, setting the stage for the rest of the crap that is now going on.
Ryder Ramirez
>If the fall of ISIS allows them to expand their access and influence in Iraq, the results could be disastrous So this is why (((America))) funds ISIS
Charles Green
>wahhabists do not represent sunnis. Ideological tests are a useless waste of resources, we have to deal with whole populations.
Kayden Roberts
I know. Because you are an evil westerner who will be sent to the fiery pits of jahannam Right wing white people are the scourge of the earth and you will all eventually be wiped out iA
Aaron Lewis
I'm aware, but a significant minority =/= a shiite nation
And where do you get off saying that Iraq hasn't been hostile to Iran, they were at war for 8 years and then spent the next 15 years staring each other down until we kicked Saddam out.
Henry Peterson
neocons getting involved in the middle east is still better than Sunnis getting involved in the West
Benjamin Robinson
We are the scourge of the earth? You would still be living in mud huts if it wasn't for the white man's use of oil. Go fuck yourself and start contributing to humanity you jerk off losers.
Luke Rodriguez
>Iran would still be living in mud huts Sorry to burst your bubble
Eli Jenkins
Let iran do their thing to fuck up israel.
Connor Jones
The white man only got ahead by destroying other countries through war, imperialism, and colonialism. The white man knows if it were a level playing field they would be hopelessly behind like they were before the abbasid caliphate got destroyed by mongols and has since never recovered. That is pre islamic. Completely irrelevant. Harm our muslim brothers and sisters and we will kill 100 of you for every muslim you harm.
Julian Johnson
>we've chosen our side
And how is that working out?
Benjamin Ramirez
Iran is the best country in the middle east and the most civilised. The shift would benefit everyone except the cunts.
Lucas Cook
>The white man only got ahead by destroying other countries through war, imperialism, and colonialism
You mean like mohammed did after he got the idea of islam on a bad trip?
Grayson Cruz
Reverse Gulf War when?
Jaxson Cooper
lmao you don't have a very good record against us

I would be so happy for real wars again. Between real countries.
This is probably another false-alarm habbening though.

Yes goy invade Iran Wait why does America care about Iraq and Syria? Oh because our kike controlled government lied to us and had the welfare queens earn their meager pay
Mason Mitchell
t. uneducated islamophobic redneck trash Because we haven't yet begun A nation built by kuffar on conquest and imperialism. Wow so great :^)
Joshua Gray

Nathaniel Howard
Show us your flag, LARPer
Isaac Edwards
Sell guns to their opposition and let them fight it out while we build technology and kick back
Samuel Wright
Islamophobic is a compliment you goatfucker.
Tyler Kelly
At this point I don't give a shit. Besides sand, refugees, and oil, there's nothing left for US or any other countries. China's getting oil from African coast (protect my sunni in Uighur embargoes) and Russia, US is swimming in oil, South America has a ton of oil plus socialists destroyed their countries so plenty will sell for cheap or else American competition.
Besides Israel and their constant colonizing of "historic" Israel, West and the East has no real business in the Levant. Iran hates US? Who gives a shit, Vietnam came around eventually, as did China. More refugees? Europe will fall anyways due former Comintern PMs in too many places in government, the faster it fall, the faster people go apeshit on liberals who take too many liberties with other people's monies.
Best outcome? Shia takes half of Iraq comes into contact with Peninsula DF, and Israel. 3 way deadlock, terrorists would be more likely to bomb Sunni/Shia because heretics are worse than nonbelievers, bomb the Jews, Israel goes ballistic and invades the shit out of everyone and attempt to stamp out extremism (would love to see that), or people are too aware of a massive conflict in the region brewing thus hide power level and this shit goes away like the Cold War.
Intervention just makes shit all that much grueling, US should not stay forever, let them find their own peace or pieces.
Nicholas Morgan
Well, even after Islamic revolution Iran didn't start any war in region, not to mention it's rightful persian clay, so what's wrong Schlomo?
Robert Ramirez
>Obviously none of us want to bankrupt ourselves fighting this war, so what can we do? Nah, we'll bankrupt ourselves for Israel. Neocons will make up a bullshit reason, then the American taxpayer will pay for it all. That's how it always goes.
Christopher Diaz
China came around eventually. Defend Israel and Iraq from Iran, you get more refugees, more taxes, more spending etc etc. The common American will be stamped all over.
Jason Morgan
There's no way the US has that many military bases
Luke Walker
I don't buy it either, those central Asian countries are in Russia's pocket
Dylan Cooper
>Is it truly in our interest to allow the ME to consolidate under a hostile power? Who the fuck cares? We should just leave the middle east and let them kill each other.
Jack Kelly
Everyone who is muslim today had ancestors who converted at one point. One of the prophets (saw) earliest companions was from Isfahan. Also you cannot force anyone to convert. They have to do it willingly. But white people on the other hand were actually conquered by christianity and forced to convert through the Roman Empire. Sad! Sup Forums right now is blocked in Iran. It used to work for some reason when you used https but even that doesn't work anymore. So the only way to post right now is with vpn. Nah its one of the many reasons why we hate you
Abbasid caliphate was centuries before Mongols. are you LARPing?
Caleb Nelson
The mongols destroyed the abbasid caliphate which ended the islamic golden age you idiot
Alexander Wright
>Everyone who is muslim today had ancestors who converted at one point. Whoa, you mean just like every religion except the animism practiced by hunter-gatherers?
Matthew Cooper
Any base north of Afghanistan doesn't exist for 10 years now.
Nathan Nelson
No shit. Why do you think the US-Jews-Saudis created ISIS in the first place?
To combat Persian power.
Jacob Johnson
why are there towns in uninhabited desert?
Logan Watson
>Gadsden flag >wants to intervene in the issues of other nations :thinking:
Michael Adams
And why is that a problem? It's not that Iranians and their shia allies are blowing up Europeans
Let Israel deal with their problems themselves. America has plenty of oil
Jayden Sullivan
This is the non-intervention policy Trump was voted in for, sadly the neocos already grabbed hi by the cock and put that cock right into their beehive in the ME. Let this be a lesson for eternity, burgers, once you step into shit, your foot gets stuck. Now you either shoot that foot or let that shit infect from the bottom up and rot you for good.
Brandon Cox
Remind me please, how many wars on middle east were started by Iran?
Cameron Cook
The war in Yemen
Christian Barnes
Wrong. Thats part of the Arab Spring B^)

That was started by Saudi Arabia.

National globalist MAGApede reporting in, when can I fight for my greatest ally?
Robert Richardson
no, we still don't like you.
Cameron Wood
This is just proof Israel wanted ISIS to win or at least not lose. Stop being paranoid Israelis. Iran has a right to defend itself.
Andrew Ramirez
probably for the best. as long as we move into green tech for energy and don't depend on oil this is justa win-win-win
