Explosions were reported near a #US #military #base in #Qatar Monday after #Iran vows to retaliate for #Trump’s assault on #nuclear sites. The development coincided with a warning from the US #Embassy in Qatar’s capital, #Doha, urging American citizens there to shelter in place. Qatar’s govt on Monday also closed its airspace & suspended flights as a “precautionary measure” while the #MiddleEast braces for a potential expansion of the fighting between #Israel & Iran.https://www.reuters.com/world/world-braces-irans-response-trump-raises-idea-regime-change-2025-06-23/

Soldiers have been told to take shelter at the #AinAlAsad Air Base in #Iraq's western #AnbarProvince. The #US supports Iraqi security forces & contributes to the #NATO mission from there.Iranian missile strikes targeted the base in 2020, in retaliation for the US killing of Iranian General Qasem #Soleimani.A rare ally of both the US & #Iran, Iraq hosts 2,500 US troops & has Iran-backed militias linked to its security forces.

@Nonilex - ugh, if this ends up escalating to a broader Shia vs Sunni conflict, it will truly destabilize and devastate the region even further. I wonder how much general populations in the Arab world will continue tolerating living under governments that are inherently corrupt, that have ignored violence in Gaza, and that are now bombarding each other?

@Nonilex "You know we have to do this, but we don't want you to be surprised or to needlessly injure your people."That's not a sign of weakness or incapacity. It's a player who wants to negotiate before jumping off the cliff. Smart move regionally and internationally.

@Nonilex "Historically, the phrase "Let the games begin" is a reference to the words with which the ancient Greeks opened the Olympic Games. Over the millennia, its meaning has changed somewhat, and today it sounds more sarcastic, alluding to deception and fraud, dishonesty and duplicity." (Quote from Tribune)So, let the games begin 🙁 https://todon.eu/@b9AcE/114734021364951536

@Nonilex This is just the beginning of the beginning. I’ve seen some reporting that just China might have delivered military gear to Iran… it’s not inconceivable that they would do so it is in their geopolitical interest to ensure that Iran has a way to fend off Israel and America.It would also be a great opportunity for them to test out their latest weapony.

@Nonilex Israel and Iran are both playing Trump. Netanyahu gets to start a war to distract from his political problems at home, timing it so that Trump could make himself feel better about his embarrassing birthday party by dropping a great big phallic symbol, er bomb, and pretending he's powerful. Iran chooses to give Trump an off-ramp from his asinine war that yes they would hurt from, but would be far more costly to the US. Trump is in control of nothing, and everyone but him can see it

@Nonilex All my adult life, GOP have been rabid warmongers: war is profitable for some of them.Even GOP President Eisenhower(an ex general) in the late 50's warned of the "military-industrial complex""In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists, and will persist."
