Everyone having problems lol
Can I recommend some videos?

First URL is Breaking Points, second one is The New Atlas. Last URL is The Young Turks.
Jiang is a hack. Don't bother with his analysis. He's an idealist who relies nearly exclusively on unsubstantiated fringe history. He peddles great man theory and claims to be able to predict the future.
TYT are pretty cringe too.
Ok well what do you watch?
For West Asia: Electronic Intifada. Justin Podur at The Anti-empire Project. Sina at The East is a Podcast ( he doesn't do many videos theses days but he is based as fuck and also always manages to crack me up) Adnan Husain, Alon over at The Mizrahi Perspective, Lara Sheehi at Psychic Militancy Podcast.
Ok and what platforms, just youtube or on others as well?
Try Danny Haiphong too. Hr brings conservatives on sometimed, but he's a communist.
Danny Haiphong is one I've actually heard of before ๐

โโ๏ธ๐บ๐ธ/๐ฎ๐ท/๐ฆ๐ช/๐ง๐ญ BREAKING: Amazon Web Services (AWS) announces that Iranian drone strikes damaged two of its data centres in the UAE and a facility in Bahrain, disrupting cloud services across the Middle East

Let's fucking gooooo!
Epico
Speculation
Calls within the Iranian media sphere to support an armed rebellion on the Syrian coast and reopen the Hezbollah supply lines through Syria by all means necessary.
I doubt this will materialize, but the discussions are there.
Iran says Strait of Hormuz closed as US death toll rises in conflict
Ebrahim Jabari, a senior adviser to the commander-in-chief of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), told state television that the waterway was closed and that naval forces would set ablaze any ship trying to transit it. "We will not let oil be exported from the region," he added, according to Iranian media.
โโ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ท/๐ฎ๐ฑ NEW: The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, Hezbollah, announces it carried out two operations this morning:
-
Launching a swarm of suicide drones at 5:00 am, targeting the radar and control rooms of the Ramat David Air Base in northern occupied Palestine (Israel).
-
Launching a large rocket barrage at 6:30 am, against the Naffah base (the Headquarters of the IDF's 210th Hushan Division) in the occupied Syrian Golan.

Glorious

U.S. Marines fired on protesters storming consulate in Karachi, officials say
Note: (Speculation) This is a very important development. West Asia and plenty of muslim countries are giving signs of what an Arab spring looks like. If the US presence is weakened even more, we might see some surprises. Let me know your thoughts.
I was thinking this war could actually set off some uprisings and hopefully full blown overthrows of GC monarchies and US puppet regimes. It will be glorious.
Yeah by the time this war is over the Islamic Republic is going to be much bigger or have many baby cousin states.
Pakistan has called in the military and imposed a three-day curfew in some areas following deadly protests over the killing of Iranโs Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in a joint United States-Israeli attack on Saturday.

US embassy in Riyadh hit by two drones
The US Embassy in Riyadh was hit by two drones resulting in "limited" fire and minor material damage, a statement from the US Defence Ministry says.
The statement, seen by Reuters, says there are no injuries and the embassy was empty at the time.
In a statement on its website the US Embassy in Saudi Arabia has issued a shelter in place notification for Riyadh, Jeddah and Dhahran.
"We recommend American citizens in the Kingdom to shelter in place immediately and avoid the Embassy until further notice due to an attack on the facility," it said.

โ ๐ฎ๐ท/๐ง๐ญ NOTE: Bahrain was officially Iran's 14th Province from 1957 until 1971
The grandfather of the current Emir, Sheikh Salman bin Hamad Al-Khalifah, who ruled Bahrain at that time, pledged allegiance to Iran in 1958, a year after Bahrain was officially declared an Iranian province.
Before 1957, Iran considered Bahrain as a part of Fars Province, despite exercising no effective control over the island, which was ruled mostly by the British, together with Qatar and the Trucial States (UAE) in what was known as the 'Persian Gulf Residency', a subdivision of the British Empire.
But, throughout the majority of Bahrain's history, it was a Persian island, and for this reason the country is still majority Shia until this day, and many Bahraini citizens have Iranian ancestry and pro-Iran political views.
@Middle_East_Spectator
I know I am going through some older articles, but I have not seen this posted that iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz, saying they will attack pipelines and burn any ship. This is probably part of the reason for the insurence cancelations that where reported earlier https://espanol.almayadeen.net/noticias/politica/2130254/iran-declara-cerrado-estrategico-estrecho-de-ormuz
(if this is a repost let me know and I will remove it)

I suggest we put forward the 1-Bahrain policy!
Acknowledging that Bahrain is and Iranian island of the Fars province, that has been occupied by the US since 1971.
I kid, but genuinely Iran has a better claim to Bahrain than any of the zionists land claims.
