I feel like it often does, though, in reality.
Technically, it means wrap up your current operations.

But sadly, I agree with your statement.

Ayatollah warns the U.S. not to attack Iran again.

Says they have defeated Israel, threatened both nations, says their attacks were a big nothing burger, claims they bitchslapped the U.S.' base, etc.

It's a mystery why Iran turned off the internet in their country... We should probably be more alarmed about politicians who want to setup the same ability for our own government.

Also, so now the CIA, Israeli intelligence, and IAEA have all confirmed the U.S. strikes were successful, which is odd considering some of our MSM outlets pushed a narrative that the strikes failed.
The head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog, International Atomic Energy Agency Director Rafael Grossi, reiterated on Thursday that the damage done by Israeli and U.S. strikes at Iranian nuclear facilities “is very, very, very considerable.”

If you are them, do you make 2000 full missiles, or do you make 1800 fake ones and 200 real ones. If my goal is to overwhelm the defenses, I feel like making a shit ton of fake ones accomplishes that. Sure, some real ones get defended, but a bunch don't. Really, I'd make 1000 real ones, and 10000 fake ones.

They don't have enough launchers to fire the missiles after the F-35s went to town.

It's like having one gun and a closet full of bullets.

Not sure why this isn't getting more coverage, but there's full scale rebellion going on in Iran. The people want that dictatorship gone.

Between this and Venezuela, China could be facing a massive oil shortage...

Russia's going to run out of people to work the oil fields if they keep up the Ukrainian invasion. :D

Ayatollah speaks about protests throughout Iran calling for change.
But Iran's ruler appeared in a brief television address on Friday morning, defiantly accusing President Trump of inspiring the protests, showing he remained in charge, and vowing that his regime would "not back down."

Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, 86, called for unity and accused "a bunch of vandals" in Tehran, where a state TV building was set alight, of having "destroyed a building that belongs to them to please the U.S. president."
Smart move aligning the resistance with Trump. Now the American left has to take his side... :D

Apparently, this is all real.

In 5 minutes my X feed had nothing about Iran and now every account is reporting various countries telling their citizens to evacuate.

Either Oil or Epstein, unsure.

Both are correct.

But if you need the official reasons: Iran is the world's #1 sponsor of terrorism and their people are revolting against their government and being murdered in the thousands.
