Zoroastrian tradition envisions three future saviours, one for the end of each 1,000-year period that comprise the last 3,000 years of the world. All three will be born of maidens, conceived while their mothers bathed in a lake that miraculously preserved the seed of the prophet Zoroaster himself. The first will be named Hushedar, the second Hushedarmah, and the third will be Saoshyant, who will lead humanity in the final battle against falsehood.

This could also refer to the Pauline Christians making an appearance.But many who are first will be last, and the last first.
Haven't read through it all yet, but TTAC substack, in response to the Ted Cruz/Tucker encounter, is reiterating what Laura posted:It is interesting that Iran is the Birthplace of Zorastrianism, one can say the origin of monotheistic religion. That religion had a final judgment. The emphasis was on cosmic purification and cleansing. The universe is healed, not separated into good and evil; all souls will be healed or made right with God (some through a painful process, those not properly aligned, FRV). Forgiveness (of personal sins) is not central.
Then came Judaism, which was rather tyrannical. Then Julius Caesar forgave his enemies, and then Jesus died for all our individual sins.
As I said, despite how dangerous this game is, from their perspective and given a certain confidence in their abilities that they might have, perhaps they think they can get out of this situation relatively well without having to risk suffocating sanctions yet... everything will depend on how things develop.Iran had signed the The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.
Declaring itself a nuclear power might have serious repercussions such as with the United Nations and the relations with other countries who were not aware of the state of affairs.
Sometimes it's good to ask basic questions. Does Iran have nuclear weapons? We don't know for sure, but what we do know is that Israel has a secret nuclear program. Well, let them both abandon such programs under the supervision of the UN Security Council and the IAEA.
Why is it OK for Tel Aviv but not OK for Tehran? Previously, it was called the 'zero option.' Nice, eh?
They will refuse, of course. And no strikes will help 100%. For Tehran, a nuclear program equals survival. And it will push ahead, no matter what. Wanna try taking away nuclear weapons from the real (new) members of the nuclear club?
But if you try destroying it altogether, as Israel is doing and the US may be doing soon, too, then Iran (if it does have nuclear weapons) will definitely use them! And if not, it will rebuild this program at any cost. Netanyahu will go one day, but Iran will remain... probably led by a new ayatollah.
Yes, Christians of my generation believe the Scofield insertion is part of the 'real' Bible; they also think that Matthew was the first gospel, so this type of skulduggery has been going on for a long time.It seems to have taken solid root with too many believers, though, with the worst having the same mindset as Cruz. But that was the objective of the deceivers and that's bringing the whole world to the edge of the abyss. Will we "fall" again . . .
The ongoing genocide in Gaza is quite a variable, sponsored by the US. I guess it will depend on the kind of the strike or the repercussion on a nuclear facility, Israel had just strike for the second time Isfahan. Perhaps US is waiting for a greater repercussion, radiation leak in the area?So we don't really know how it will shake out, and it might not be binary either: in the past, you could trust that once the neocon war machine is on, the regime change/escalation script will just run its course. But there are many more variables these days. Maybe even if there's a strike against some supposed nuclear facilities, it might not escalate: maybe the Mullahs don't retaliate against American bases, and even if they do, it's not so easy anymore to sell a carpet bombing campaign much less a ground invasion. There are folks in the Trump administration who don't want escalation, whether they are open about it or not.
Isfahan in red point.Isfahan nuclear site has no leakage of hazardous materials
Isfahan Police Security Deputy:
Early this morning, the Zionist regime carried out violations in some areas of the cities of Lanjan, Mobarakeh, Shahreza, and Isfahan.
According to reports received, there have been no casualties from these attacks so far, but some damage has been caused to these areas.
The Isfahan nuclear site was also one of the targets of the Zionist attacks, which were accompanied by an air defense response. We assure the people that there has been no leakage of hazardous materials in the region at the Isfahan nuclear site, and there is no reason to worry.
[1/3] The US increases its military presence in the Middle East, Houthis threaten military and commercial ships in the Red Sea, and the IAEA confirms Israeli attacks on Iran's nuclear infrastructure.
The United States is strengthening its military presence, with six US B-2 stealth bombers deployed to Guam, escorted by four KC-46 tanker aircraft.
This redeployment comes amid an increase in US air and naval power in the Middle East.
---
[2/3] In addition, the Houthi group warned that it would attack all US military and commercial ships in the Red Sea and the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait if war broke out with Iran.
---
[3/3] The IAEA confirmed that the centrifuge production plant at Iran's nuclear facility in Isfahan was targeted by an Israeli strike. Although it did not contain nuclear material, this was the third attack on Iran's nuclear infrastructure in a week.
I think Israel is a tool by 4D STS and will be used to their end, it s useful status is coming to an end and that usefulness is for the destruction of Iran because of its semitic genes, if Isreal gets destroyed is not important to 4D STS, now are Mossad aware of that or not is not relevant, maybe it is not relevant to them either if Israel survives because they are all bought, or maybe high in their wisfull thinking that is common in higher 3D STS levels like in 4D, not seeing they will also get destroyed in process. Think jihadi tactic is not so much effective against Iran like it was against Syria because it is too much of a bite, do that is why Israel is used with their nuclear bombs.Adding to the last post above:
The idea that Israel is or must be “the unsinkable aircraft carrier of the empire in the middle east“, geopolitically speaking, might not be the case anymore nowadays. So Israel might have become expendable or at least parts of it. The world has changed since that statement was apparently a big reason for why Israel is so important.
If you look at a map you can see that the empire now seems to have plenty more potentially “unsinkable aircraft carriers“ in the region! Syria just being one example with a similar amount of direct access to the Mediterranean compared to Israel. Iraq is next to Syria and probably also fully controlled by the empire, thereby already de facto creating/having a direct sea and air bridge (with no threats in between) towards the east, including Iran! Egypt and Jordan might also be significantly controlled by the Empire, as well as Saudi-Arabia and Turkey (maybe to a lesser extent).
So, who really needs Israel anymore? The only thing I could think of in terms of Israel as a really important asset would be: The nukes in Israel could be important for the empire (assuming Syria and/or Iraq and/or others haven’t been equipped with them already). In that szenario, I still think they want Iran out (or in control) but in their minds you could probably also do that with hordes of proxy Jihadis through Syria and Iraq (and/or other client states of the empire in the region, such as Saudi Arabia).
Interesting, This takes on greater relevance.US military action focuses on taking full control of the Strait of Hormuz, rather than confronting Iran head-on by attacking its interior. Amid the chaos, Pakistan sends its army into Iranian Baluchistan, taking control of all that would remain of Iran's access to the Indian Ocean, while Turkey (and perhaps Azerbaijan) enters from the northeast, forming two surprising (or apparently supportive) opposing fronts for Iran.
Although, I highly doubt about that.1.-They would need China to agree to enter into this scenario and not go too far in helping Iran beyond the aesthetic. Perhaps they forget that China does not act in short-term scenarios. Will China be willing to increase its dependence on the petrodollar again?
They are in the move, latest from TasnimNews Telegram ChannelWhy might the case of Baluchistan be particularly relevant to the focus of the Western deep state?
The helplessness of the terrorist group Jaish-ul-Zalam due to the patriotism of the Baloch people
After Israel's blatant aggression against our country, Iranian people from all social, political, ethnic, and religious spectrums declared solidarity and support for our country, calling for the destruction of Israel.
One of the areas where the Zionists and their mercenaries have focused on creating social unrest is Sistan and Baluchistan. Therefore, on the first day of the invasion, the proxy group "Jaysh al-Zalm" and other Israeli mercenaries active in the Sistan and Baluchistan region issued statements calling on the Baluch people to rise up against the government.
The reaction of the people of Sistan and Baluchistan, and especially the zealous Baloch people, in declaring their support for the country, led to the failure of this attempt by the Israeli mercenaries. In response to the wave of declarations of support and solidarity of the Baloch people for the country against the Zionist enemy, the proxy group Jaish al-Zalm began threatening Baloch social activists, media people, and artists.
This dedicated group has been contacting Baloch activists through messages on social networks WhatsApp and Instagram, threatening them to stop their activities in support of Iran.
Thought this was a good summary of possibilities. Not every possibility for sure.Interesting take. John Mearsheimer sees the most likely possibility in that this continues on for a bit and then Israel goes to the United States begging for them to shut it down in a way that allows them to save face by saying that the US forced them to do it in an ugly ceasefire. That makes a lot of sense. I just am not sure we can rely on common sense when it comes to Trump and Bibi.
Most a) - nothing ever happens, except when it does, then it's more mostly nothing.Signs of cold feet in the WH? Starting to look a bit like the tariffs gambit, no?
Alright, I'll open a book for bets on this
a) fizzling out
or
b) the US still eventually getting directly involved
Yeah, never rule out the complete destructiveness of cornered psychopaths. Based on the video above they suggest Iran is making sure not to corner Israel entirely. Although on reflection I'm not sure that's the case, given the amount of damage that seems to have been inflicted.I think you are onto something and we might be faced with another "TACO" situation here (on the surface at least).
It's noteworthy that Trump went so far this time that many of us even went past the point of exasperation, and have fully mentally washed our hands of the whole MAGA thing. Personally I am ready to accept that the assassination spectacle was just a 4d manipulation, am fully expecting a return to the Bush era, and wishing for the comets again.
If Trump does pull back now, he will have fooled everyone. No matter the core reason, it will go down in history his most epic "dance" (as Niall often describes it). Whether it's intentional, or channeled, or just sheer random chaos, I suppose is inconsequential. Of course, this is a big if.
In such a situation, the Israelis will be left off balance, floundering, and will almost certainly lash out desperately. They will take out their rage on whoever they can.
Notice that, in line with this, their cruelty and barbarism against Gaza has seen a resurgence in the past 2 days, which coincides with the major vibe shift in the war: Iran has proven much tougher than was hoped and they've hit Israel very hard in return.
Yeah, I'm in this camp. Historically, we've seen all of this rhetoric and media and govt. build-up and narrative creating and population management before, and it has never ended in a complete 180 and no attack. So I think the decision to attack Iran was already taken quite a while ago. All that's left is the timing.
