The Iranians believe they are unconquerable. Inshallah! Inshallah!

From Gaza to Tehran… We are an Unconquerable Nation
Palestinian Fists and Iranian Missiles
Peace from Gaza, the city that learned to write its name in blood and fire, to Tehran, which cherishes in its memory the meaning of revolution and the meaning of steadfastness. Peace to Isfahan and Tabriz, to Qom and Mashhad, to every mother who mourned her son with her head held high, and to every fighter standing on the borders of his homeland as if standing on the very edge of history itself.
From Gaza, which was meant to suffocate until it exploded, to starve until it surrendered, to be besieged until it died in silence, the voice rang out loud: We will not be broken. And from Tehran, which has endured decades of siege, threats, sanctions, and assassinations, came the answer: We will not submit. Between the two voices lies a geographical distance, yes, but between the two spirits is a unity of destiny and fate.
The issue is not the number of planes, nor the cargo of the warships, nor the excess of fire raining down on safe cities. The issue lies in the meaning of will, in the meaning of saying “no” to those accustomed to hearing “yes” from everyone. Gaza said it when the world thought the small strip couldn’t withstand a prolonged war, yet it endured what mountains couldn’t bear. And Iran said it when they thought the siege would bring it down, but it transformed the siege into a workshop of self-sufficiency, strength, and development.
Hamas and the Palestinian factions: Mourning and supporting Iran in the face of aggression
At the height of this moment, heavy with fire and smoke, the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), along with the other Palestinian factions, emerged to speak from the heart of the Palestinian wound, mourning the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei, and a number of political and military leaders who fell victim to the aggression. The statement was not merely a protocolary stance, but a declaration of loyalty to a journey spanning nearly four decades, during which the movement saw that the man never wavered in his support for the Palestinian people, their just cause, and their valiant resistance, despite the pressures, the siege, and the conspiracies. In unequivocal language, Hamas described the “American-Israeli” attacks as “a blatant aggression against the sovereignty of an independent state and a flagrant violation of all international norms and laws,” holding the American administration and the “Israeli government” fully responsible for this aggression and its serious repercussions on the region’s security and stability.
Hamas asserted that these strikes only exacerbate crises and serve only expansionist and hegemonic projects at the expense of Palestinian rights and the interests of the Arab and Muslim world. Therefore, Hamas called upon the Arab and Islamic world and the international community, both states and institutions, to take immediate action and adopt serious and decisive stances to put an end to these escalating crimes. It reiterated its solidarity with Iran and offered condolences to the victims, in a scene reflecting the convergence of fronts and the integration of narratives in confronting what the movement describes as the ongoing Zionist-American aggression.
Unity of Blood… When Geography Transcends its Boundaries
Since the outbreak of the major war on Gaza, and the transformation of the Strip into an open testing ground for all types of weapons, the objective has been clear: to crush the will of the people. The goal wasn’t merely to destroy homes, hospitals, and universities, but to destroy the very idea: the idea that a besieged people could resist. Yet, Gaza remained standing. Yes, wounded. Yes, burdened with loss and tears. But it stood.
In the background, Tehran was interpreting the scene not as a marginal event, but as a link in a larger project. A project that seeks to reshape the region according to the dictates of power alone, according to whoever possesses the most advanced weaponry and the broadest influence. Therefore, Iran’s stance on Gaza was not a political detail or a tactical maneuver, but a strategic choice connected to its ideology and identity since the victory of its revolution decades ago.
Today, as the flames spread directly to Iranian territory, the scene is repeated with different faces. The language is the same: destroying capabilities, subjugating the state, reshaping the regime from within, imposing “guardianship” in the name of security and stability. And the pretext is always ready, as it was in every previous war: self-defense, protecting interests, deterring danger.
A battle of wills… not just a battle of weapons.
But what has changed? What has changed is that the region is no longer the same. Gaza is no longer just a besieged enclave; it has become a symbol of Arab, Islamic, and human dignity. And Iran is no longer a country reduced to the rhetoric of sanctions; it has become a regional player that is difficult to ignore or isolate. When the two fronts intersect, it is not just weapons that clash, but two narratives that intersect: the narrative of hegemony and the narrative of resistance.
Some might say that the balance of power only tilts where the military arsenal does. And this is true… to a certain extent. But history has taught us that major battles are not decided solely in operations rooms, but in the hearts of the people. How many superpowers have thought that firepower alone was enough, only to discover too late that when people decide to resist, they change the equations?
In Gaza, children under bombardment wrote their names on their torn school notebooks, as if declaring a silent defiance: We are here. In Iran, people took to the streets whenever the pressure intensified, declaring: a nation is not a building to be bombed, but a people who stand firm. This is the equation that cannot be measured by satellite imagery or detected by intelligence reports.
When the people speak… the logic of guardianship collapses.
This is not about glorifying war or celebrating fire. Rather, it is about understanding a pivotal moment: a moment when some seek to redraw the map of the Middle East by the sword, while others insist that sovereignty is not a negotiable issue. From Gaza to Tehran, the same question is repeated: Will the people of the region be allowed to choose their place, or will they be forever condemned to a subordinate position?
We are facing a confrontation that transcends geographical boundaries. It is a clash between two logics: the logic of brute force and the logic of deeply rooted will. The former relies on shock and terror, on siege, starvation, and sanctions. The latter relies on time, on accumulation, on transforming pain into the energy of survival.
The road may be long and costly. No one claims the price is insignificant. Gaza has paid enough in blood for the whole world to record its story of suffering. And Iran has paid a heavy price in its economy, security, and stability. But nations are not measured solely by what they pay, but by what they achieve afterward. When adversity becomes a school, pain becomes an investment in the future.
A nation that will not be broken… even if the night is long.
From Gaza to Tehran, the message is one: We are not peoples seeking war, but we are not peoples who accept humiliation. We are not lovers of confrontation, but we know that surrender does not bring peace; rather, it opens the door to further dictates. We are not advocates of chaos, but we refuse to have our destiny written in distant capitals.
In moments like these, true character is revealed. Some rush to take refuge in silence, while others raise their voices, even if alone. Gaza could not afford the luxury of silence, so it cried out. And Iran did not choose to be at the heart of the storm, but when it was placed there, it decided to stand firm.
Maps may change, deals may be struck, and settlements may be imposed. But what will not change is that this nation still possesses a spirit. A spirit that emerges whenever some believe it has died. A spirit that says military superiority does not create legitimacy, that siege does not erase dignity, and that bombardment does not obliterate identity.
From Gaza to Tehran… we are an unconquerable nation.
We may bleed, but we will not surrender.
And the night may be long, but dawn, as experience has taught us, is inevitable.

Dugin’s grim prophecy
Dugin is a philosopher with a sightly different view of things than Putin. He sees the world from a standpoint of Eastern Orthodoxy.
Indeed is it wise to overlook the Horrors of modern day Nazis? Russia lost 27 million people to the original Nazis. Now Nazism is back, and what is Russia doing.
It launched the SVO, the Special Military Operation. But that is aimed only at protecting Russia.
Is Russia taking a laissez-faire approach to the rest of the world?
What about ally China?
We have not stood up for either Venezuela or Iran, and China is also maintaining neutrality. But in that case, China will be next after us. And then Epstein’s “kingdom” will reign over all of humanity.
Alexander Dugin
March 1, 2026, 5:33 PM
The situation is critical! “Katechon’s Sword” instead of the SVO is the last chance: Dugin sets the record straight in the attack on Iran
What happened on the first day of the US-Israel war with Iran fundamentally changes the balance of power in the world, as well as the rules of international politics. Trump has long said that international law does not exist: “.” In principle, after the kidnapping of Maduro and the imposition of direct external control over Venezuela, as well as after the strikes on Iran, which destroyed the military-political and religious leadership of the country—a sovereign power that was in negotiations with the United States and did not abandon them—it is no longer possible to talk about rules, laws, or any norms of international relations in the world.
Indeed, now only the law of might and the law of speed apply. Whoever strikes first or carries out this or that action first is right. Everything else becomes just additional justification. That is, the important thing now is to strike a decisive blow against the enemy, break its resistance, destroy its leadership, and strike at key military and energy facilities. And then you can frame it any way you like, justify it any way you like, and spend a long time figuring it out.
I think that now almost everything depends on how long and how resolutely Iran can resist. If it continues to wage this war after the destruction of its political leadership, if it doesn’t surrender, doesn’t wave the white flag, and doesn’t capitulate, then it could end badly for the West itself. After all, then everyone else will start acting in exactly the same way, paying no attention to anything and overestimating their potential, minus their legal status. This will unleash many regional powers to do whatever they want. So, things could very quickly escalate to the use of nuclear weapons – perhaps in the Pakistan-Afghan conflict, perhaps in other conflicts. There are definitely no rules.
In short, if Iran continues to resist under its new leadership, this could have very serious consequences for the West itself, affecting Trump, the US, and NATO countries. But if the situation with Venezuela repeats itself – either the new leadership declares capitulation, or the military simply cannot continue fighting – the war will be short. And in that case, we should expect a similar scenario. There is no doubt about it: Trump and the West, seeing that this scheme is working, will simply eliminate Russia’s main political and military-political leadership as their next move.
[But the Venezuelan scenario is not working out as planned. To work, it will take at least one oil major investing heavily in Venezuela and there is none interested. And that is the unexpected detail, the plan is in fact a failure. Perhaps Dugin is unaware of this. It takes more than a successful overthrow to make a regime change work. It takes a plan. The Chavistas are still in charge of Venezuela]
Make the West “like they did in Iran”: Russia is one step ahead. There is no turning back.
It is already clear that we are acting indecisively. And according to this same model, during the next negotiations with Kushner and Witkoff, we will be attacked. Perhaps even with a nuclear strike. Therefore, I believe the situation is critical for us. We have not stood up for either Venezuela or Iran, and China is also maintaining neutrality. But in that case, China will be next after us. And then Epstein’s “kingdom” will reign over all of humanity. [But are the people in the West this reckless? I can’t believe they are. But we shall see. We are in uncharted territory. We have never been here before]
I emphasize that today we can already say that we are dealing with more than just the liberal West. Liberalism has very quickly withered and disappeared from the agenda. No one talks about liberal values or democracy anymore – all that is a thing of the past. Now the cult of Baal, the cult of the golden calf, the cult of global power, the cult of the United States and Israel have taken hold. This is a civilization of violence, Satanism, cannibalism, perversion, and pedophilia. And this “pedophilic civilization of Baal” is, before our very eyes, throwing off its masks and beginning to attack in earnest.
Where in Russia is the attack being prepared: The US attack on Iran has become a war against the entire world
What is happening is very reminiscent of the End Times from every perspective. And if we don’t find the strength to comprehend the situation, we’ll find ourselves in a catastrophic situation. Many say, “This is no time to panic,” but sometimes it’s better to seriously consider what’s happening than to assume we’ll escape. Now, we certainly won’t: Iran is the last thing standing in the way of a direct war between the Baal civilization and Russia.
If we had the will and determination (although I seriously doubt it), we would have to start acting by the same rules that everyone else is already acting by. That is, we would eliminate Ukraine’s military-political leadership and, regardless of the cost, accomplish the objectives of a special military operation. [Those objectives being to demilitarize and denazify Ukraine]
By the way, against the backdrop of names like “Shield of Judah,” “Epic Fury,” or “End of the Flood” used by world powers, I would rename our modest Special Military Operation “Operation Sword of Katechon.” And that would immediately change a lot. [Katechon – a force for good, a mystical religious term.]
But I’m afraid we won’t dare do this, but will instead continue with the same old story. And then, I repeat, missiles will hit Moscow right during the negotiations with Kushner and Witkoff, literally following the Iranian scenario. The Baal civilization is simple: it repeats the same scenarios, and they work time after time. Because everyone thinks this only applies to Gaddafi, Hussein, Milosevic, Mubarak, Nasrallah, Assad, or Rahbar Khamenei, but not to them personally. And so, step by step, the Baal [or the Epstein] civilization achieves its goals.
Iran is the last thing standing in the way of a direct war between the Baal civilization and Russia. Video: Telegram channel @mpshow
Therefore, either we mobilize urgently, or the situation will become extremely dire. And if we still have illusions, then there is something profoundly false within our own camp. This is especially noticeable against the backdrop of what happened in Iran – a global catastrophe. Wonderful people, remarkable spiritual leaders, perished there. To put it in perspective, it’s as if the Patriarch of Moscow, the president, the Chief of the General Staff, and all the key ministers had been assassinated simultaneously. And at the same time, the murder of over a hundred schoolgirls, innocent souls, killed by missiles. After such a thing, how can we remain indifferent and pretend it doesn’t particularly concern us, as if it’s none of our business?
Therefore, if we tolerate all this and remain silent, then next time they will do the same to us. Therefore, I am absolutely certain that in the current situation, we should immediately declare a state of emergency. At least at the highest leadership level. After all, the situation is becoming absolutely critical for us.

True Promise 4: A Swift and Wide-Ranging Response Will Expose US-Israeli Strategic Folly
Iranian Attack on a US Military Base
Through the first phase of Operation True Promise 4, launched in response to the US-Israeli aggression that began this morning, the Islamic Republic of Iran has demonstrated that all the warnings issued in recent weeks—that any aggression would be met with an immediate and widespread response targeting all US military bases, including, of course, the Zionist entity—were indeed a direct operational order.
Approximately two hours after the US-Israeli aggression, the armed forces of the Islamic Republic simultaneously, continuously, and extensively attacked the Israeli occupation entity (with a carefully planned timeline for the missile strikes). Numerous US military targets were also struck in Jordan, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Iraq. Contrary to the pledges made by some countries in the region not to interfere in any aggression against Iran, informed sources revealed that Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan, and Bahrain were used as key launching points for the attack.
This was confirmed by the spokesperson for the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces: “We will teach Israel and America a lesson they have never experienced before.” He added that “any base that assists America and Israel will be a target for the Iranian Armed Forces.”
Features of the First Phase of Operation True Promise 4
_Swift Response: The response to the American aggression was unprecedentedly swift; missile barrages began within just two hours, with reports of missile strikes on Tel Aviv and Haifa.
_Pre-Authorized Delegation of Authority: This response suggests prior authorization from the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei [since killed also the commander of the IRGC was killed. Note that the war proceeds as before, Martyrdom is expected and Iran actually plans for it], to the military command. Instead of waiting for central coordination, the Iranian Armed Forces launched a sustained barrage of fire against Israel from the outset.
Expanding the Confrontation: Iran has broadened the scope of the confrontation beyond Israel to include US military bases in neighboring Arab countries.
[These countries’ leaders actually called each other “brotherly” countries but that was nonsense. They are sold out to the Americans and are nothing but traitors. Every country that willingly gave land to the Americans for use as military bases is sold out. Fortunately, these countries are all small]
Multiple Regional Fronts: Yemen has explicitly announced renewed attacks in the Red Sea, and Iraqi resistance factions have declared their entry into the war alongside the Islamic Republic, which could be followed by similar actions on other fronts.
Key Targets Attacked by Iran:
1) Bahrain: The US Fifth Fleet base in Manama was targeted, with explosions documented at the base and at US military and radar installations.
2) Iraq: The US Air Force base “Harir” in Erbil, in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, was targeted.
3) Qatar: Al Udeid Air Base in Doha (home to US Central Command headquarters) and the FP132 long-range radar facility in northern Qatar were targeted.
4) Jordan: Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Azraq, one of the most prominent bases where the US had amassed its air forces in recent weeks, was targeted.
5) UAE: Al Dhafra Air Base in Abu Dhabi was targeted, and explosions were observed at the site.
6) Kuwait: Al Salem Air Base was targeted.
Destruction of a Long-Range Radar
According to the Public Relations Office of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC): The American FP132 radar, with a range of 5,000 kilometers, located at a facility in northern Qatar, and containing unique equipment used to track ballistic missiles, was completely destroyed.
What are the key details about this radar and the facility where it was located?
Coordinates: 25.707107731480658, 51.253788284371524
It is located approximately 66 km south of Al Udeid Air Base.
The advanced phased-array early warning radar is used for long-range early warning and space-based surveillance and operates as part of the US missile defense and space-based surveillance network.
The radar has multiple interfaces, each providing 120-degree coverage.
Operating Frequency: Ultra High Frequency (UHF)
Range: 3,000 miles (4,828 km)
A Strategic Folly
What transpired in the initial hours of “Operation True Promise 4” represents a qualitative shift in the conflict across the entire region. The Islamic Republic has transitioned to large-scale operational action, presenting Washington and Tel Aviv with an unprecedented reality, where the response can no longer be contained or confined to a limited geographical area.
The American-Israeli aggression, despite all prior indicators and warnings, reflects not strength but rather a profound miscalculation of the strategic situation. It can even be considered a high-stakes gamble whose consequences will quickly become apparent. Instead of breaking the deterrence equation, this behavior will ignite a contiguous regional arena, where American bases and interests, along with the heartland of the temporary entity, have become open and legitimate targets.
Therefore, what the United States and the interim entity have done is not merely a passing tactical error, but a strategic folly in every sense of the word; a folly whose repercussions will unfold in the coming days, as the confrontation widens, intensifies, and the ability to control or contain its course erodes. A new phase has begun, one in which the cost of aggression will not be the same as before, and those who ignited this fire will not be able to extinguish it. Certainly, the effects will be far-reaching and may even bring about sudden geostrategic shifts.

Any other conservative site is full of slobbering idiots repeating administration talking points of IRAN BAD!! and other silliness.
I am despondent that so many still trust their government. I'm not aware of anything bad Iran has done to the US since 1979, and that's because we overthrew their fkg government. No attacks on US soil, no roving bands of Iranian terror gangs, nothing.
And we line up to regurgitate silliness about how evil they are.
WE Americans are being used by the Isaeli lobby which dictates American foreign policies. Nothing will change untilthe lobby is thrown out of our America.
