Iran launches a new batch of advanced centrifuges to accelerate its uranium enrichment, further reducing compliance with the 2015 US nuclear deal.

Jenifer (Zarknorph) said:Iran launches a new batch of advanced centrifuges to accelerate its uranium enrichment, further reducing compliance with the 2015 US nuclear deal.
The US abrogated that deal - even while the rest of the world believed that Iran was coming back into compliance with international law and norms (no matter how grossly perverted they are by Israel).
Iran is in enormous danger from the US (and Israel) and will continue to be that way until it can retaliate effectively.
Decent people might even think that the sooner that that can happen the better - hopefully without tanking their economy and society, as the US succeeded in doing to the USSR.
Decent people will also wish good luck to the North Koreans.
And to Lebanon - except it looks as if we're sacrificing them to the people we mustn't crticise.

Iran is turning the heat up , their economy is failing , they understand that the US can watch and wait so their reply is to ratchet up the tension in a measured effort to bring the US into find some form of accomodation .
Neither the US or the Arab Gulf states / Emirates or Saudi Arabia are looking for war , that would be the ultimate last resort.
The Iranians are very smart , the US is also equally as smart and this is about who blinks first , Trump knows he will bring Iran to its knees so the Iranians have to find some form of bargaining chip which ramping up production will do - I dont expect much to happen other than further sanctions which will include the Iranian air line will be forbidden to fly and its vessels will be ultimately stopped from leaving ports , it is on the cards and this Iran wants to avoid

Israel is You're intent on devastating a nation of 80 million people, just as the US has devastated Iraq (25 million) and you've almost certainly devastated Lebanon and Syria (with lots of help from the US).
You're intent on bringing about Holocaust II, killing 60 or 600 million Muslims and possibly WW3.
And you're quite open about it, you're not going to mend your ways, you're not going to stop beating and robbing and killing people from their homes - as you told us.
In June 2011, under Netanyahu and in his addresses to Knesset, Israel committed itself and us to WW3 by declaring this was an "eternal conflict".
"By declaring the conflict insoluble, Netanyahu is dooming Israel to live eternally by the sword, leaving no opening for reconciliation and understanding with the Palestinians and the Arab and Muslim world". https://www.haaretz.com/1.5022442
That's when you changed your tune and started admitting the real nature of the evil you endorse "the IDF has predicted an eternal conflict with no end and i am unfortunately going to go with their analysis".

Iran's President announces the discovery of a new oil field with more than 50 billion barrels of crude - a find that could boost the country's proven reserves by a third.

I'm suspicious.
If this was a new find, it would not be reported - what for, when it only makes an attack by the US look even more profitable?
If its an old find, no reason for reporting it now - other than to encourage the population to resist regime change and the terrible fate of the Iraqis.
We do a lot of lies about the people we wish to destroy - in this case, we may have forced them into lying back.

If it exists then Israel , the Kurds , Turks , Russians , US know about it .
It is possible it is an additional bargaining chip the Iranians are throwing onto the Table as their position becomes more fractious .

IF you have to pay for three or four Militias and your income is knocked sideways then you look to increase taxes locally , cigarettes and Fuel are always favorites , it is another clear sign (if one was needed) that Iran is in deep trouble .
The Iranians are super smart they will issue statements that they are ramping up even further their Nuclear Program and you can expect further well planned well executed attacks in the region , these actions are a statement of Iranian capabilities and defiance

The US sanctions are really hurting Iran, but it is the common people who have to pay the price.
