    Iran is really busy starting shit up. Making west put up their guard and decreasing arms export to Ukraine. Pretty sure Putin is just around the corner pulling strings.

      Iran has been backstopped by the USSR and later Russia since very shortly after the Iranian Revolution concluded. There were good reasons for that (the government they rebelled against was US-friendly, and in fact essentially installed by the US during the Iranian coup back in 1953), but the fact remains that they’ve had significant geopolitical ties for a long time, both overt and covert.

      Russia started their latest meat wave assault on Awdijiwka just hours after Hamas attacked Israel.

      This marked the start of the russian winter offense. Putin was able to distract the media attention for a few weeks but he wasn’t able to actually take Awdijiwka.

      Iran had massive public banners unrolled just hours after the Hamas attacks. They are all in it.

      As long as putin is a free man, governments like North Korea and Venezuela are encouraged to use their military or at least try to blackmail their neighbours.
