    Brother, you can’t say “Iran and Russia have a defense pact” and then laugh and pivot to China after I point out Russia is not going to be able to make good on that pact. You haven’t earned the right to be arrogant if you never mentioned China in your first comment. I wasn’t talking about China. But now that your mention China…

    China is not currently interested in a proxy war to defend a middle eastern ally of convenience. They’re gearing up to invade Taiwan. They will leave Iran to fend for itself, like how Russia let Syria collapse.

    In all likelihood, Iran is gonna be forced to just take the L and do a bit of posturing.
