"I think IDF should engage Hezbollah every few years in a meaningful way to destroy its infrastructure deplete its weapons and reduce its human capital until Hezbollah understands it can't do a damn thing. The only real solution of course is regime change in Iran. With Iran ruled by the mullahs Hezbollah has the incentives to stay in the fight. Hezbollahs capabilities are equal roughly to a middle European military. 200k missiles & rockets. Hundreds of precision guided munitions. And a military that has fought alongside Russia and Iran. The group can do real damage to Israel. Of course the"

"The October 7th terrorist attack generated a negative shock in Iran's forex market. It affected the free market rate (the left) immediately.

"Resolving the #Houthi problem requires ground force and sea blockade. A few missile attacks or a lot of missile attacks will not do it. Pushing the Saudi-led coalition to get out of the fight was a disastrous decision and it is very unlikely we can convince the Saudis to get into a ground war with the Houthis again. As long as Houthis control the land they can threaten the #RedSea corridor"

"There will be another election in Iran soon. Here is my piece from a few years ago explaining why the regime holds elections. "The Islamic Republic in #Iran holds elections because the process benefits the regime. By allowing a limited competition among loyalists while controlling the participants and outcome the regime grows more resilient in the face of pressure and more respectable abroad.""

"Interesting development here. It seems IRGC has targeted Syria and Iraq. In Syria it claims to have targeted commanders of groups responsible for attacks in Kerman and Rask. Strange because commanders of the group responsible for the latter are most likely in Afghanistan and Pakistan. (Aren't they) In the region (Erbil) it claims to have targeted espionage centers and compounds of what it calls "terrorist groups""
