I think Democrat candidate RFK jr has a tough road, as the incumbent president always have the upper hand especially if there is a war. Not sure how he is going to to do it through primaries as DNC will promote the incumbent. Now if the Democrats / DNC see momentum in him and witness that as a Democrat he has a lot of base then they may put him on the pedestal.

 

Now if he runs as independent then it will be interesting what happens. Many young Democrats who are not happy with Neocon Republicans running this administration will rush. As Kennedys are iconic Democratic brand and both JFK and RFK are the party's heroes. Then from Republican side lots of Trump base will rush to RFK's campaign whether Trump is running or not.

 

The current administration with the mix of republicans and democrats giving the nation a signal that just like late 50's and early 60's we may be witnessing another criss cross of the two parties.

$15 million for a fighter jet???!!! A car like Bugatti La Voiture Noire is like $19 million. US F-35 is like $450 million dollars.

 

Anyways Putin's close ties with Netanyahu is keeping IRI on leash.

This is our roshanfekrt and below is his statement.  Did he take a trip to Romania or Belarus or Lithuania or even Russia in early 70s to see how   “Hokoomat e Melli” feels like?

اینا بیشتر که از دیگران گول بخورن، خودشون خودشون را با این اراجیف گول میزدند.

من که یک مارکسیست لنینیست هستم و به شریعت عالی اسلام ارج بسیار میگزارم ، معتقدم که در هیچ کجای دنیا و کشورهای وابسته وتحت سلطه استعمار حکومت ملی نمیتواند وجود داشت باشد مگر آنکه حتما یک زیر بنای مارکسیستی داشته باشد

Iran has been waiting for far more than a year to receive the Su-35, which would prove a major upgrade in capabilities for Iran’s aging air force, largely comprised of American jets in service since before the 1979 revolution.

 

According to one current and one former diplomat with direct knowledge of the matter, Iran made “full payment” for 50 Su-35 fighter jets during the second term of President Hassan Rouhani. The officials requested anonymity given the sensitivity of Iran’s arms purchases. According to the former diplomat, at the time of purchase Russia had promised to deliver the Su-35s in 2023. Neither source expects that the deliveries will be made this year.

 

A third source, a security official, speaking on background, expressed disappointment that Vahedi’s “uncoordinated interview” had called attention to the fact that the deliveries were now in doubt. Iranian officials feel embarrassment over Russia’s failure to adhere to commitments.

 

The delay in the delivery could be traced to the strong relationship between Russia and Israel. In June, Axios reported that Israeli officials confronted Russian counterparts over Russia’s growing military cooperation with Iran and the possibility of Russia providing Iran advanced weapon systems. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu disclosed the “open and frank” dialogue with Russian officials in a closed-door hearing with Israeli lawmakers on June 13.

 

In the view of the former diplomat, due to their arrogance, Iranian hardliners “fell into the trap” of believing that they were an equal partner to Russia, simply because “the Russians are queuing up to buy arms from them.”

 

Goaldoost.

 

The current state department (Blinken Nuland and the gang) "is entirely infested and infected with Neocons" according to this podcost. Don't invite Ukraine to NATO is the order now.

 

Thanks Goaldoost :) I am not a big fan of Netanyahu :) but very educational.

 

 

After so many years of following politics (not as an activist, just as someone who has interests in learning about events in the world and what they mean in a factual non-rumors manner), I think "education" (and I don't mean having a degree in something, not that kind of education) and memory are very important. And you have to educate yourself in three things as mentioned in the podcast when Dan Rather's grandson asks Bibi what courses does he have to take in college so that it can help him to have a career in politics and Bibi said "three things, HISTORY HISTORY HISTORY". I think that is so important.

 

 

You can't be ideologic and be open to change, and transition. Dynamics of the world and history reveals lots of things and sometimes these revelations appear decades, centuries, or millenniums later.
