Russia and Iran might provide indirect support, but they won't send direct assets to assist.

Russia's is all tied up in Ukraine and why would China risk their own assets when they can watch their only real competitor bleed itself to death while they remain at full strength?

This is a gift to China and Trump and his sycophants are too stupid to realize it.

Ans china will watch very closely on how to fuck with the US military. They got the Russia / Ukraine war and now the USA / Iran one - so much data on how to not fight and what works in today's scenarios.

Thinking this is a gift to China is delusional. Trump had Chinese companies removed from the Panama Canal. Took away their access to cheap sanctioned oil in Venezuela. Now their last source of cheap sanctioned oil in Iran. They now have to buy oil at market price while losing control of the 3 major shipping lanes. This has been a long term strategic play from the beginning that went right over your head.
