I am puzzled that news eg Fox reported great military victories right up to capitulation day.
Even the established (establishment?) east coast press presented anodyne coverage. I am deeply puzzled.

It still feels like when your friend has been publicly humiliated.
This war was a lousy unjustifiable idea. It has finished off the American brand for a generation.
I anticipated sanitising the Persian gulf with scramjet type missiles that India is starting too field, as I posted months ago.
The Iranians showed they could do it with liquid fuelled rockets. And precision guided drones. The ace was the remarkable attacks on gulf bases. That ended it.
Re: West Asia Crisis — Discussion, Developments, and Bharat’s Strategy
The Reset
1. Conventional Overmatch
The U.S./Israeli technological overmatch has resulted in the systemic decimation of Iran’s formal military assets, leadership nodes, and industrial income. In terms of "Kinetic Throughput," the U.S. has achieved its primary objectives. While the nuclear program has likely been set back by a decade, the "Resurrection Latency"—the ability to rebuild from hidden blueprints—remains a permanent system risk.
2. Asymmetric "Mosaic" Success
Iran did not engage in a conventional exchange. Utilizing the "Mosaic Doctrine," the IRGC prioritized decentralized command and control to terrorize regional commerce. While the formal military (Artesh) is sidelined, the IRGC’s "Asymmetric Kernel" survives and has performed well in its objective of creating a $142/barrel market panic.
3. Ceasefire Logic
The current ceasefire serves as a "Buffer Period" to reconcile the extreme positional drafts of the Islamabad Accord. A likely end-state involves the physical extraction or destruction of the 440kg HEU (Point 15), no further enrichment, and "War Reparations" (framed appropriately) resulting in the restoration of open passage in the Strait.
4. The "Negation" Protocol
If negotiations fail, the U.S. will likely pivot to the "Systemic Negation" of Iranian civilization. This involves the total deletion of industrial infrastructure and the physical takeover of the Hormuz islands using the 15th and 31st MEUs and 10,000 paratroopers (82nd and 173rd Airborne). New objectives would include the foreclosure of Kharg Island to control bulk of the oil revenue and the permanent clearing of threats from Abu Musa and Qeshm.
5. IRGC Persistence
The IRGC values the "Revolutionary OS" above all else and will likely retain power even after industrial decimation. As the only armed node with internal control infrastructure, they can maintain a "Low-Bandwidth" threat (RPGs, drones, fast boats) sufficient to keep insurance premiums high. They will likely bunker the HEU at Isfahan and Natanz, daring a high-cost U.S. ground invasion.
6. The Pyrrhic Victory
U.S. control of the oil revenue and the Strait may prove pyrrhic. If the HEU remains in-country and the Strait requires constant, resource-heavy escorts, the "System Uptime" will be characterized by permanent distress and high global energy costs. There is no "Permanent Peace" script currently loaded.
7. The "Day After" Coup
There is a distinct possibility of an internal "System Reset" (coup). While no alternative node has emerged yet, historical data suggests such events occur "the day after the day after"—once the true results of industrial deletion are felt by the population.

No desire to poke the bear, but purely from an analytical standpoint-Where did he say specifically that these are the exact ten points he has agreed to? It is naive to think that anybody would so stupid (even Trump) to be discussing "the Ten Points" in public.
While official diplomatic text is rarely public, the 'Ten Points' became a public matter the moment Iranian state media broadcast them as their accepted conditions. When the White House then responds by referencing a 'secret summary' of 15 points, it effectively acknowledges that a framework exists. The debate isn't whether a document was 'tweeted,' or what worshippers of their hero will argue about, but rather that the narrative of the 'Ten Points' was allowed to fill the information vacuum before the official '15 points' could be branded.
Re: West Asia Crisis — Discussion, Developments, and Bharat’s Strategy
> the 'Ten Points' became a public matter the moment Iranian state media broadcast them as their accepted conditions.
Now we are being asked to believe the Iranians. Or even Trump. Why is it surprising that a framework of sorts had to exist before any negotiations could begin? There is no sharply defined timepoint at which complex negotiations would start. It is over a period of time that they converge onto a set of points - 10 or 15, or 15 Million is of no real importance.

Re: West Asia Crisis — Discussion, Developments, and Bharat’s Strategy
Cross posting from Terroristan thread:SRajesh wrote: ↑08 Apr 2026 13:01 Soo the peace deal and ceasefire!!, what does this potentially bring to Jihadi's:
1. Can they suck up to UAE/KSA to rollover the loans?? possible but depends on MBS. If he makes a deal with Jihadis then UAE might demand the loan. Getting both to agree will be tricky process.
2. Further IMF tranche, most likely go through given Unkil and Xi might want to throw some bones to the pet.
3. Will this revive the Ummah, probably but who will lead it?? a Trioka of Jihadi's, Turks and Eyeranians will be utter disaster for the world peace. And this will completely isolate the GCC who have all the oil and money ( having said that Eyeraninans can fund some misadventure)
4. Will it bring some understanding for the two-state formula, which the Trioka can claim major victory and hence further their claim for the Caliphate.
This will depend on two important things:
a. What are the Isreali Objectives?? will they accept two-state formula and more importantly a shift in the leadership of Ummah to Trioka, who are rabidly Anti-Isreal. And their longterm outlook will be a long drawn low key attritional skrimishes, a neo Death by Thousand cuts!!
b. GCC and more importantly KSA/MBS response?? The poorer Ummah and to a certain extent rest of the GCC are supposedly fed up with MBS. The general feeling is that the Custodian is not only diluting both actively polluting the tenets of strict cult code. Given this peace deal and eventually cooling down, it may bring MBS down. Either a palace coup and KSA successor can reclaim the Custodian role or MBS does 180 degree reverse. Going by the susurrations during the conflict, MBS wanted full control of the Ummah even at the cost of falling out with some of the GCC countries. A Eyeraninan triumph of sorts will not go down well in KSA and MBS will have watch his backside now even more than before.
One way for Trioka to bring down KSA/MBS is they can get the Sherif of Mecca reinstituted and hand it over to the Hashemites!! and separate the twin Cities a some sort of Ummah free cities with wider Ummah controlling the Diplomatic and Military control over them!! But that would mean a total loss for KSA/MBS. Wonder how the rest of Abdul Aziz progeny will take it. If this happens then MBS will be toast!!
All in all if this holds (meaning the deal and eventual cooling down) will bring much headache not only to Isrealis but also to KSA/MBS.
I havent touched upon the Jihadi outlook on India, given that WB is gping to polls and UP to come later.
Local biraders will be emboldened I am sure but will it lead to total surpise in the elections results hmm have to wait and watch!
So this current confusion vis-a-vis Lebanon and proxies, is this deliberate or real error.
But knowing Jihadis, I sincerely believe that it was deliberate given their strategic planning and planners.
So they wanted to crow about strategic victory for the wider Ummah!! And gain leverage.

The perils of negotiations done in public and via a go-between:
“ Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf has asserted that Lebanon is an “inseparable part” of the US-Iran ceasefire, as per Pakistan’s announcement.
In a statement shared on X, Ghalibaf said, “Lebanon and the entire Resistance Axis, as Iran’s allies, form an inseparable part of the ceasefire. (Point 1, 10-point proposal).”
He highlighted, “PM Shehbaz Sharif publicly and clearly stressed the Lebanon issue; there is no room for denial and backtracking.”
Ghalibaf also warned, “Ceasefire violations carry explicit costs and STRONG responses. Extinguish the fire immediately.”

Vance claimed a “legitimate misunderstanding” led Iran to believe that Lebanon was covered by the ceasefire.
“I think the Iranians thought that the ceasefire included Lebanon, [but] we never made that promise. We never indicated that was going to be the case,” Vance told reporters before boarding a plane back to the US from Hungary.

The "news" part of this—and likely what triggered the latest round of social media chatter. my post, and media blips—is that Muhammad Shahzeb Khan (also known as Shahzeb Jadoon) officially pleaded guilty just yesterday, April 8, 2026.While the initial drama of his arrest near the Canadian border happened back in September 2024, legal cases of this magnitude usually take a long time to wind through the system.A_Gupta wrote: ↑09 Apr 2026 17:18This Pakistani was arrested in September 2024, long before anyone thought Kash Patel would be FBI director.

On or about Sept. 4, 2024, Khan attempted to reach the U.S.-Canada border using a human smuggler. Khan traveled from the vicinity of Toronto, Canada, toward the United States, before he was stopped and arrested in or around Ormstown, Canada, approximately 12 miles from the U.S.-Canada border.

"We Don't Trust Pak": Israel Envoy Reuven Azar Says US Also Sees Country Only As Middleman
Azar said, "We don't trust the Pakistanis. And I think that, you know, don't get over-enthusiastic to the degree that the Americans trust them. It's a facilitation role, not more than that."
Regarding Pakistan's role in mediating the talks between the US and Iran, he said that Israel's "hopes" are with the United States and that they "believe the Americans" will utilise the two weeks in a way that can bring stability in the region.
Responding to Pakistan's condemnation regarding Israeli strikes in Lebanon, Azar said that Tel Aviv will continue to do what it needs for the country's defence.

Iran’s late night warning to US/Israel hours before US-Iran talks in Pakistan. Will the ceasefire hold and talks happen?
