Y'all, I officially have no idea what in tarnation is actually happening in #Iran. (Not nukes! #TACO instead. Yay.)
The US media is touting this like #USA won, but #Arab and #Farsi reports are telling a story a little more plausible. Those reports say that the Strait will be opened *under IRGC control, for two weeks, using tolls (that's new), with payment in #Chinese #Yuan.
This is the beginning of the end of the petrodollar. And Iran has two weeks to rebuild their missile systems and 14 Billion in Yuan we just gave them to buy oil.
Meanwhile, #Israel says ceasefire doesn't apply to them, and they targeted and destroyed one of the oldest synagogues in the world in Tehran, burying torah scrolls older than those in Jerusalem.
Wrong kind of Jews. Tan / Brown ones. Like the bombing of the Catholic churches in Palestine and Lebanon. Wrong kind of Christians. Not the Crusaders, you see. Don't worship the Golden Calf, preferring the peasant Palestinian.
How is this a "winning"?
@MissConstrue I never thought I would trust Iran more than the US, but 2026 and here we are.

@CStamp RIGHT?!!
There was chatter on some OSINT channels that the IRGC was talking to Iraq telling them that kidnapping women was against Quran prohibition that prohibits any form of injustice or abuse against women (with caveats, but foreign women have a special carve out) (I'm not a scholar of Quran, I am repeating what Muslim friends told me)
In any case, the Iraqi kidnappers released the American journalist. I pray she was unharmed as much as possible. But I tell the story to say that the IRGC did more to release an American than our government did.

@MissConstrue It's "winning" (temporarily) for whoever probably made a big bet on the markets right before Trump crashed them and now gets to cash in as the markets try to recover again.
That's all I got.
Even that is temporary.

@nazokiyoubinbou I know. I wish I was evil. (Not really) But goddamn, I could be so rich if I were evil. (compounding the problem. Hmm.)
Stupid ethics. Damn it.

@MissConstrue Honestly it kind of seems that way for everyone who's actually paying attention. If we didn't have morals, we could screw over a lot of people, crash a lot of stuff, and wreck our futures for ourselves and everyone else but for a few days we'd all have fuel guzzling yachts that we wouldn't be able to afford to sell afterwards I guess.

@MissConstrue Israel has become what they once abhorred. They are not winning. Israel and the US are losing respect and power the world over. Trump and Netanyahu have destroyed the reputation of their countries.

@MissConstrue but exactly that was already the case last week? EDIT: To clarify: Already last week (and I think the week before too) ships could pass through the straight if they paid a hefty Yuan fee.

Apparently "Ex Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting under Obama" is already out there saying the war happened for no reason.

@MissConstrue
It's a loss for US and a win for China/BRICS.
The downfall of $ as a reserve currency accelerated.OTOH about-ish half of the Israeli Jews are "tan". According to 2023 data there were 9100 Jews in the whole of Iran.

@MissConstrue To quote from 'Through the Looking Glass':
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "It means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "Whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "Which is to be master - that’s all."

@MissConstrue ... wondering whether the history of previous Iranian oil bourses based on the Euro will percolate upwards...
Yeah, massive self-own on the part of US, but when you look at the current leadership it's not hard to understand. -
