I will not be listening to the crazed guy, TSF just started WWIII, I don't think China and Russia will stand idle...

[wcmagumba]

[Deuxcents]

1. I think we're in it deep and with this inept leadership

[stillcool]

2. me neither

and there's fireworks going off in the background. Just to make the right aura for my reading pleasure.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

3. I am not going to watch this asshole tonight

[ImNotGod]

4. China and Russia will stay out of any direct military response, China may ship weps to Iran

both will up their persuasion for a peace deal, that is all.

[Vogon_Glory]

13. I suspect that Vladimir Vladimirovich is kicking back in his Kremlin office

and thinking of Napoleon’s dictum: “Never interrupt your enemy while he’s making a mistake.”

And this one was a doozy.

[Johnny2X2X]

5. This isn't WWIII

Iran is a 3rd rate power. It’s idiotic to attack them for literally no reason. But this likely won’t be the start of a huge conflict.

[greatauntoftriplets]

6. I'm not going to listen either.

It would interfere with listening for air raid sirens.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

7. I beg to differ,

Russia can't even defeat a country like Ukraine and I don't really see China getting involved militarily, they're focus is on Tawain and the E. China Sea, which they see as their sphere of influence, they're not going to go head to head with the US Military.

[WarGamer]

12. bingo

[Fiendish Thingy]

8. You think China and Russia are going to come to Iran's aid?

Russia doesn’t have the military resources, and China isn’t going to risk their economic dominance.

Expect a lot of saber rattling, and Putin taking advantage of the news cycle being focused on Iran, but that’s about it.

We may get to see some creative use of hobby drones by Iranians on US soil.

[Arazi]

9. Nobody's coming to Iran's aid. This is not WWIII

[Boomerproud]

14. If and when WW3 happens, it won't be over Iran.

But it will involve us versus Russia and/or China.

[Vogon_Glory]

10. Actually what they're likely to do is let the US get bogged down

in a prolonged, massive ground war. Most Iranians may (or may not) hate the Ayatollahs, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t see themselves as patriots or that they won’t fight to defend their homeland. I don’t know what sort of red, white and blue psychedelics Trump and his advisers are ingesting, but an invading US ground force WON’T be welcomed as friends. The Irans, both military and civilians alike, WILL fight.

Even if both Trump and Vance vanished into thin air today (6/21/2025), the Iranians are going to hate us for years to come,

[Igel]

16. There won't be an invading ground force.

None are going to make an amphibious landing in Rehoboth or Galveston or Santa Monica, none are going to invade Iran.

We've dropped bombs. Might drop more bombs. There may be some strike on US assets or forces, a terror attack or two, but that's about it.

[ShadesOfBlue]

18. For years to come??

They will hate us for decades. It will be passed down the generations.

[WarGamer]

11. If Russia didn't start WW3 over the US/Western proxy war in Ukraine...

Nothing will happen over Ukraine.

[DUU]

15. China WILL stay out

China did send transport aircraft to evacuate some “friends and families”. They will continue to refrain from any direct action or escalation of indirect support, at least until the trade is formally signed off by the US and Xi.

[ShadesOfBlue]

17. China and Russia never do anything

Which is why America can impose itself on the vast majority of the globe.

[PufPuf23]

19. The UN will and should condemn the USA except for security council veto.

We could lose NATO.

[roamer65]

20. Russia and China will consider stationing thermonuclear nuclear weapons and related ICBMs in Iran.

Iran is a SCO member. There are mutual defense agreements.

[Crunchy Frog]

21. I think russia will be very happy about rising oil prices.

[roamer65]

22. ...and a blocked Strait of Hormuz.
