Wow this war is definetly not going like we all thought or is it?

It's exactly as many experts predicted it would go, extrapolating from the 12 day June war. It's not like Iran hasn't been telling what they would do long before Trump/Netanyahu attacked.

It's definitely not going like Trump/Netanyahu and the main stream media presented it would go (and are still misleading the public of what's really going on)

Iran didn't 'give up' last June, they showed full restraint and went back to diplomacy despite being attacked, putting their last faith in the UN / international community. Warning next time they would not hold back. Iran is doing exactly as they said they would if attacked again. Iran already showed they could deplete US defenses in 12 days last June. They thought that was enough deterrence to stop Israel trying again.

Now who knows when this will end... Iran's demands are US to leave their bases in the ME, Trump's demands are unconditional surrender, Netanyahu wants more chaos and is trying to pit the gulf states / Saudi Arabia against Iran. Billionaires are making money from the higher prices and stock market swings. The military industrial complex is making money and soon getting more tax payer money to spend.

Russia and China are benefiting from this war as well, higher oil prices less sanctions for Russia while Russia helps Iran with intelligence, trade ties for China (who is still getting oil from Iran) who are also helping Iran, plus US is depleting/cannibalizing their military in the South China Sea which opens the door for China to annex Taiwan...

Europe is standing by on the sidelines, not officially supporting the war but still helping US/Israel behind the curtains. So far NATO is staying out of it. Ukraine, Lebanon and Gaza are the biggest losers of this war, forgotten while Russia and Israel have free reign to do whatever they want. Plus the people in Israel are now in as much danger as those in Iran and Lebanon.
