US war on Iran | Megathread for Week 12 of 2026

I agree with your line of thinking. Ground invasion from outside probably wont happen and if it does it is going to be a massacre of the invaders. Even with the old commanders gone there are too many Iranians ready to fight back.
Iran's martyred leaders have explained the Mosaic Defense structure they have established. The resistance in Gaza, Ansarallah, and Hezbollah have show how this structure works in practice. Iran and the others in the Axis of Resistance built this systems together. Any person in the military who hasn't figured this out is not paying attention. The level of incompetence required to be this ignorant means they would fail even if they had 10x the resources the will have.
None of the collaborationist militias in the region are that stupid. If they were they would have been eliminated years ago.

Rest in Power. The last of the established branches are being removed but they are making room for new shoots who will bear much fruit.

They are panicked. Feels like more weight on the "bibi is dead" scale.

This is how you make an Islamic Republic of Syria lead by Hezbollah that includes southern Lebanon.

Honestly if this war goes on long enough and the zionist entity collapses, I'm seeing an Islamic republic of Syria-Palaestina that goes from Turkey to Egypt, and including Jordan (half the population are refugees from occupied Palestine).

Imagine having dehumanized workers to the point that all you see them as is statistics for shareholders to squeeze. This kind of idealism leads to miscalculations and unexpected consequences. He is completely oblivious to the fact that "hurt consumers" have a tendency to lash out with violence and take what they need to end their pain.

Jeffrey Sachs: Israel Could Use Nuclear Weapons Against Iran

The fact that israel has nukes means they could use nukes. The question is what would they gain and lose by doing so.

Opposing "both sides" in an imperialist war of aggression is nonsense

Jump

Considering it was a popular revolution created the system less than 50 years ago as it is there is no reason to think the people lack the power and know how to carry out revolution. So there is no reason that a revolution couldn't happen but despite massive sanctions and pressure no such revolution has come. So that means the governement has significant support.

Anyone who says they are opposed to the continued existence of the Islamic Republic is asking outside forces to depose that Republic by force.

It also hardens support for the aggression. If Iran hits a hospital every family member and friend effected is more ready to put their body on the alter to get revenge.

Imagine watching a fighter kick his opponent in the ribs while he is down and saying "He threw more punches at the start of the fight. He must be exhausted because he is only kicking once every three seconds."

this war is not going according to plan

Not for the aggressors, The Iranians seem to have planned this all out in detail.

What does he think? A hand full of nazi drone pilots are going to turn the tide of the war and then the oil starved nations of the world will come to the rescue in his country? Zeleneski, if they can't beat Iran how can they help you against Russia?

The psychological toll of being an anti-imperialist organizer in the heart of the imperial core

Jump

How can I change this mentality? What can I do?

In this specific instance? Just leave him alone. Some of ideas just take time to settle in. He may come back to talk or maybe he will pick up where you left off with someone else. Either way don't sweat it. You win some you lose some. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink.

Based on the very little I know about you my impression is you should focus on large scale agit-prop. You have a knack for it and it is an important specialized skill that is in short supply. Maybe point people to the sources that got through to you instead of trying to explain it all.

When you are dealing one on one you need to sus out what the person responds to best and what doesn't work. Its a lot of trial and error and mostly its error.

Sometimes it is better to say less. Sometimes its better to let the other person talk and just ask them leading questions and provide counters to misconceptions they have. Some people need to connect the parts together themselves, rather than be shown the whole picture. Sometimes people have an authority bias and need to be told by a 3rd party; they don't have confidence in themselves and project that onto their peers. Sometimes we aren't good at the type of interaction that is needed. Some people like a wall of text most of the time they don't. Some people like lectures some like reading. Some people respond when you treat them like an asshole.

What didn't work with this guy might work with the next person. Just remember that your aren't alone there are other comrades out there who will hopefully try different approaches with that person.

What is the ultra-left?

Jump

Commiejones @lemmygrad.ml 2d ago

People who claim to be communists but denounce all socialist states for not being communist enough. Generally ultra-left organizations are run by anti-communist using leftist language and aesthetics. They don't criticize or analyze Existing Socialism they rebuke it and insist they are traitors. They love failed socialist projects because their goal is to maintain the status quo not bring about communism. They are communists in rhetoric and aesthetic but anti-communist in their word and actions.
