Iran warns of radioactive catastrophe after 4th attack on Bushehr nuclear plant

The foreign minister criticized the silence and inaction of Western governments in condemning the highly dangerous attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities as he drew a parallel between a similar alleged attack by Russia on a major Ukrainian nuclear power plant in early 2022.

”Remember the Western outrage about hostilities near Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine? … Israel-U.S. have bombed our Bushehr plant four times now. Radioactive fallout will end life in GCC capitals, not Tehran,” he said, making a reference to member states of the (Persian) Gulf Cooperation Council.

So You Lost A War To Iran

(March 31, 2026)

Iran, despite the decapitation of its leadership, has dealt the United States a strategic defeat in the classical sense. It will end the war in a stronger position than when it came under attack. The United States will end the war in a weaker position than before it launched its war. The rest is details.

(…)

Welcome to strategic defeat—or, I should say, welcome back, considering the whole War on Terror and all, and the Vietnam War. Only this time the consequences of defeat for the Americans are set to be far more severe.
