And since the first Iran war, Iran has drastically improved their targeting with missiles and drones while doing real damage to American bases, equipment, and killing servicemen. You just have to conclude Russia is helping Iran, probably with China, and taking the opportunity to pay back the US for the carnage done within Russia&#8217;s territory. And through all of this, both sides are developing their cheaper drone attack systems and targeting in the face of jamming and other defensive measures being developed. Consequently, I believe the terms for these wars are negotiated in back channel deals as they&#8217;re very profitable for both sides, even the rebuilding afterwards, but if you have to wonder if there are betrayals taking place and how that will affect future negotiations and rules of engagement. And I fear a false flag like 9\/11 to justify boots on the ground in Iran, and just today there are stories of Iran making Americans mourn by a terror attack. Also, a faction within Iran is cooperating with the west as part of the war is impacting oil prices, manufacturing, food production&#8230;worldwide. And perhaps Iran will become a new investment frontier if they can eradicate enough of the IRGC? Moreover, this Gen. Wesley Clark clip shines a light on how they really operate, as the US military is a security force for the OCGFC, Owners and Controllers of Global Financialized Capital, as they look poised to tackle the last country on the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/jasonsblog.ddns.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/wesclark7version2expanded.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/geopolitical\/wildberries-russias-amazon-has-seen-four-major-hubs-attacked-quick-succession\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/geopolitical\/wildberries-russias-amazon-has-seen-four-major-hubs-attacked-quick-succession<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ub-divider ub_divider ub-divider-orientation-horizontal\" id=\"ub_divider_de084aff-f90c-42ea-9544-142537d0c601\"><div class=\"ub_divider_wrapper\" style=\"position: relative; margin-bottom: 2px; width: 100%; height: 2px; \" data-divider-alignment=\"center\"><div class=\"ub_divider_line\" style=\"border-top: 2px solid #ccc; margin-top: 2px; \"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By Tyler Durden<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wildberries, which is widely referenced as &#8216;Russia&#8217;s Amazon&#8217;, has seen <strong>four of its top ten distribution hubs attacked by Ukrainian long-range drones<\/strong> in only a matter of days, potentially putting their business operations in doubt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stunning footage is widely circulating Wednesday of some of the latest attacks, which came overnight.
