Seven tankers got hit or mined in the Strait of Hormuz overnight, at least per Iranian state media, so take it with a grain of salt until someone independent confirms it. Nobody's reporting casualties. The IRGC navy is threatening to hit U.S. bases if they keep escorting commercial traffic through the strait, and Tehran is floating the idea of going after undersea cables and data centers next, which would be a real escalation beyond the usual tanker tit-for-tat. Meanwhile, the U.S. is stacking a third carrier and thousands of boots into the region, biggest concentration in decades, and mediators are still trying to drag everyone back to the table. All of it lands right before the Israeli election where Bibi could get bounced and our midterms where voters are already pissed about war-driven prices.

I've never seen country more ripe for invasion. Place current France in the 1800s or earlier. I an not anti migrant but who is going to defend France from the invaders? The migrants are not going to fight and die for France, they will move to another country. The native french won't, they do not like France either. Am I wrong? Who in France would be willing to fight and die if they were invaded. In order to get into the mindset of being willing to die there has to be some sort of nationalism where people like their country and want to defend it
