1. Hopefully they will take control of their country

and prevent Trump from exploiting it for his own benefit which he plans to do.

3. Yeah, hoping but doubtful

Anytime you have an authoritarian leader for decades it’s a tough transition as parties jockey to fill the power vacuum. Knowing Trump I doubt he’s given little thought to the hard part of this and the post ayatollah era

[JI7]

5. Trump's only interest is personal gain and he will view them as owing him

becsuse of what took place.

Just like how he opposed the Nobel winner being in Venezuela becsuse she didn't agree to his demands over the nation's resources .

2. Says Who?

The same media that praised Georgie and told us Iraq welcomed us a liberators, until we stayed and massacred millions of civilians, for reformers change. Were they celebrating the girls slaughtered in school. Who cares about little girls? Certainly not the little girl take party. They are just sacrificial’s for the wealthy pigs to play with.

4. Good

for them!!

6. A 3 member council will take power.

The Iranian president, a high level IRGC official and an upper level cleric.

According to the Iranian constitution, as I heard on Al Jazeera.

The war will continue.

The rapid retaliation this time shows Khameini has devolved power as reported.

7. Fake.

Surely people know a fake when they HEAR one? The dubbing is terrible.

Al Arabiya is funded by the Saudi government and pushes Saudi foreign policy. I'm sure MBS is thrilled. Trump did him a solid too.

8. Al Arabiya is funded in whole or in part by the Saudi government?

Aired on CNN, but possibly propaganda for rival Middle East state? I’m sure some are celebrating. I’m sure some are scared. I’m not sure why the need to sell us so hard on the attacks today. The next few days we might learn more, but it seems strange that many who ask for well established facts before commenting are just fine with narratives built with piecemeal facts.
