I heard the main goal was the fuel distribution facility. It's the one that sends gas to Europe through Ukraine. It's the carrot putin is constantly holding over their collective heads.

Not envisioning anything at this early stage - but any encroachment into Russia proper can be seen as a strong signal of intent and capability. A pincer movement would require a serious long term logistics and personnel commitment in addition to hold the current lines - and I don’t think Ukraine is there yet.

You are really overestimating how patriotic the Russians are. The social contract in Russia, ''Power for stability'' has really broken down. Putin is turning out to be more expensive than Yeltsin.
Strategically, Putin is dead already. He made gamble that will never make a profit.
The reality is, Russia will be poorer because of Putin's gambit, and it's people will face a decades long stigma for no real gain.

I’m fairly confident that if Russia can’t annex Ukraine they can’t win a war with the overwhelming majority of European nations combined military force. that alone is a force to be reckoned with. They have a sense of self preservation and have made it clear they wouldn’t tolerate Russia using a nuke in Ukraine. Ukraine’s offensive into Russia isn’t a justification, it’s a little weird you think the nation that launched an unprovoked invasion wouldn’t need to act with reason. Biden is also not running for reelection, he’s a lame duck. It’s not a crazy decisive decision if Russia used a wmd in Ukraine. Most people would support an intervention.

It’s sort of tough to explain but might be easier to understand in visual form. Search YouTube for animated battle videos. They exist in abundance and some are pretty good. Sometime frontlines move very quickly, sometimes they stay in place for years. The difference is caused by a million different factors, but watching how some battles play out in a sort of tactical view might give you the gist. I recommend History Gone Wilder. His civil war series does follow armies from battle to battle with all the tactical maneuvering in between. Obviously, technology has changed a lot since and that has had a huge effect on warfare, but I think it will still help.

I like how they say the “president” so it doesn’t look like the supreme leader is trying to reign the IRGC in.
The president is just a puppet for the Supreme Leader and if the IRGC is clashing with the Supreme Leader it means there is trouble in paradise.

This won't be a popular view and maybe I'm senseless, but I think a war with Iran must happen unless there is internal regime change soon. Maybe not now, but soon, and it should be the US leading the charge.
Among the worst things I can imagine for the world is the current Iranian regime getting nukes. They are too close for comfort and it'd be better to have a pre-emptive war to prevent that than to wait too long and deal with a nuclear-armed Iran.

Calling Iranian President a puppet is definitiley an oversimplying of the situation. Many people don't understand that it is not one man's say all the time even in a dictator country. There are varied branches within the ruling elites, and they all contribute to the decision more or less depending on what the issues are.

Probably not that it's easy but that it's win win. They hurt Israel on one hand and on the other that the more isolated and weak Iran is due to the response to their attack, the more the regime will depend on them and the more power they have internally relative to other groups. It's classic riding the tiger, the regime unleashed extremists and now those extremists are acting to push their own goals and assert its own power rather than what's best for the regime. You can see that in other cases where political groups try to bring in extremists for profit and then lose control of them and get dragged into trouble. Nothing good ever comes from allying with crazies.

95% of the time, a majority — or at least a solid plurality — are clamouring for their country to go to war with a hated enemy.
This is a good time to draw up the outliers, where the people were miserable, suffering, and angry at their government's petty bellicosity and domestic slights.
The best analogue to Iran right now may well be Imperial Russia in early 1917, and most other examples may well be far less relevant.

It just doesn't make sense to me because what would anyone really gain out of it? I've been having a hard time picturing what a full regional war in the middle east would even look like other then it ending with Isreal/America destroying the Iranian economy or maybe even causing the regime to fall.
I've figured since the end of last weekend if it hadn't gone down yet I doubt it's happening. Irans leaders seem to value survival above all else and if they go to war surely they know Isreal can just take them out like they did with the leader of Hamas.

Iran wants out of this fight. They want to rattle their saber in Israel’s direction, but they don’t want this what comes next. This all seems far too public, like this internal disagreement between the Revolutionary Guard and the (new) more moderate President was “leaked” by the Iranian government itself.
If they make threats and then back off too quickly, they look weak. If they pretend that the hardliners want to go ape-shit, and only the nice guy president is holding them back (but he will prevail), they can save face.
> Masoud Pezeshkian, the newly elected president and a comparative moderate who defeated the IRGC’s candidate in elections last month, has suggested targeting secret Israeli bases in Iran’s neighbouring countries.
>
> Iran has previously targeted what it refers to as “spy bases” of Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency, in Iraqi Kurdistan.
This seems like is a signal to Israel; something along the lines of, “Get your people out of the way so we can attack these places and call it a victory without killing Israelis and escalating this shitshow we’ve created for ourselves.”
You don’t tell your enemies where you are going to hit them unless you are merely trying to save face with what *looks* like a proportional response (but is far less) because you want the whole thing to stop.

Also when everyone complains about aid the aid comes in the form of weapons mostly. Israel used to have a robust weapons industry and were working on the potential best fighter plane in the world, but America basically bribed them with tons of money and weapons so they stopped their industries. America didn’t like the competition the Israeli manufacturers were giving to the American ones. So whenever someone complains about aid just know that it didn’t have to be that way.

I'm not sure what you want me to say? All of israel is extremely disappointed with the leadership and their failures on Oct 7. This is something the right and left is unified in, actually.

Trump has never even voiced his support for Project 2025, which is not to say he doesn’t support it, but that’s actually not as scary as Netanyahu invoking Amalek and religious prophecies as fuel against the Palestinians.

I don't know, man - of late, Israel is seeming like pretty clearly the bigger, uglier and more reprehensible monster on almost every single level.
I started off being rather moderate in my approach to this conflict - I'm a former Muslim. I've known about Hamas and the back and forth between Gaza and Israel for a very long time. I'm aware it's not black and white.
But, you know. This? And all of the hundreds of thousands dead and wounded? And it's Institutionalized?
Nah. Fuck 'em. Fuuuuuuuck 'em all the way down.
