It happened: strikes on Irans capital and nuclear facilities 🇮🇱. Here follows my analysis and the consequences for involved nearby countries.
The main difference between this war and the Russia Ukraine war: Buffer states like Syria and Iraq are between the 2 countries at war, as Iran and Israel have no direct land borders. Furthermore it is insanely hard to to march Infantry masses across these flat desert buffer countries landscape without being spotted by satellites or drones. Syria and Iraq will sustain some damage, as they host pro Iran militia forces and some IS terror cells. This war will cost a lot of rocket-fuel, as the distance between Iran and Israel cities are bigger than those from Ukraine to Russia.
So I predict this will be mostly a war of long range strike- and special forces secret service commando assets in which Israel has an advantage in my assessment. Iran might enrich Uranium further, but only as a gesture, not really a useful outcome for them ☢.
🇸🇦 Saudi-Arabia will profit from this: Its sales of oil will grow, while Iran refinery capacity will be destroyed 🛢 . Russia might benefit indirectly from this with its oil sales to Asia (India and China) and a growing oil price. NATO countries will divert some long range strike assets and artillery munitions to Israel at first to strengthen it, as the US has already sent air defense assets purposed for Ukraine to the middle east theater. But with a defeated Iran Russia will loose power in the middle east and the Caspian-Sea. Azerbaijan and Afghanistan might profit from this as well, their borders with the isolationist mullah regime might become more brittle enabling more sanction avoiding smuggling and small export industry.
The US will benefit from this war in 2 ways: growing oil prices make their fracking industry more competitive and defense contractors like Ratheon stocks will grow 🗽 📈. Israel as a key to the region will strengthen for the US.
🇹🇷 Turkey will stay neutral, they are amassing military forces and industry and neither Iran nor Israel have interest to mess things up with them and divert resources, though Turkey might use this to justify deeper operations inside Syria against PKK forces in the north-east.
Also I expect North Korea to send “secret” observers and assets into Iran as they have done in the Ukraine war, keep looking for them.
First of all Israel wants Russia in the region to hinder an increase of Turkish presence. Also Israel has a very different stance to Russia than NATO. This includes Israel having demanded Ukraine to surrender to Russia as well as Israel providing military drones to Russia between the occupation of Crimea and the full scale invasion.
Second of all, Iran isnt some small country that can be pushed around easily. This will lead to a prolonged war, which is Israels goal, to drag its “Allies” or rather its bitches into a long and bloody war against Iran, so that they can do the dirty work for Israel, while Israel can finish the genocide. This means Ukraine will have less support for the following months if not years.
Third of all the resulting spike in Oil and Gas prices will replenish the Russian war chest.
Fourth of all, Iran has provided production licencses to Russia, China and recently allegedly North Korea. So the weapons can continue to flow to Russia, while Ukraine will suffer.
This is Putins dreams and Israel is once again undermining the security of its supposed allies.
I guess long sequences of text nowadays get you flagged as a bot. But which sentence in my analysis makes you believe I am one in particular, I thought I just wrote about the countries in the region and effects?
Pretty good analysis, but focuses too much on oil. It will be a mix of Israeli air strikes and special operations in one direction and long range missiles, drones, and proxy forces in the other.
Israel‘s ability to defend against Iranian drones and missiles was very good last time around. Jordan shoots down anything Iranian in their airspace they can, supporting Israel‘s defense in effect.
Saudi Arabia, Turkey
And most other countries in the region are very happy Israel fights Iran‘s ability to build nuclear weapons. That way they can keep their hand clean.
If Iran gets nukes, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt, and others would want nukes very urgently as well.
The Saudis especially are glad Israel degraded Iran‘s proxy forces in the region. Even the new Syrian government owes its success in part to Israel clapping Hezbollah hard.
The only ones mad at Israel in this case are the ones who hate Israel‘s existence and everything they do out of principle.

Literally anyone with a functioning heart right now is already existentially mad with Israel… everywhere… ALL OVER THE WORLD.
Nothing you speculate about will change that, the only thing that can happen is a massive rise in genuine anti-semitism because centrists and neolibs like you won’t have an honest discussion about being complicit in the silence surrounding a genocide and crazy batshit rightwing conservatives then get to dominate the conversation… which is extremely dangerous.

I do not know much about the Status of Russia military bases in Syria (Tartus). Where can I find updates on this?
