Ronald Graham, managing partner of Taylor Wessing’s Dubai office, said the law firm had received “discreet enquiries . . . around day count in the UK and — if they can’t get back to UAE — how will that impact their tax situation”. He said most were waiting and seeing before taking action, but that the rich “really value the ability to move and work wherever they want, when they want, and when something like the Iran war disrupts it, they don’t like it”.

U.S. President Donald Trump told Axios on Thursday that he needs to *be personally involved in selecting Iran's next leader.
"Khamenei's son is unacceptable to me. We want someone that will bring harmony and peace to Iran," Axios quoted Trump as saying in an interview.
"I have to be involved in the appointment, like with Delcy (Rodriguez) in Venezuela," Trump said.
Mojtaba Khamenei, son of Iran's late Supreme Leader, has survived the U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on Iran *in which his father Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed, Iranian sources told Reuters on Wednesday.
A mid-ranking cleric with close ties to Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards, hardliner Mojtaba is one of the most influential figures in the Iranian clerical establishment and is seen as a possible successor to his father.
Iran has not yet announced a new leader.

Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War
Is he some kind of B class celebrity or something?
Can't he get on 'The Chase' or 'Tipping Point' and show how thick he is?

Its might be that he can't navigate the intricacies of the departure lounge of wherever he is trying to fly from, and find his way to his flight!

Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War
“I’m in some terrorist detention centre for some terrorist check,” Tate said. He continued: “Welcome to the Middle East. I guess tensions are high for some reason. I’m like, ‘Do you know who I am?’.”
What a muppet. He can’t even remember his own name.

My understanding is that the USA was bounced into the war by Israel who, legitimately, attacked Iran. The USA rightly feared (because Iran so threatened) that their bases and assets would be legitimate target for Iran. So the USA legitimately attacked Iran.
Simples, really.

The president doesn't declare war, Congress does, so it is in fact illegitimate unless whatever this is its not a war, guess he could try calling it a special military operation, it worked for putin did in Ukraine

Indeed. It's funny how those on the right who criticise Blair for the UK's part in the Iraq War are keen to criticise those who didn't assist Trump in his illegal war on Iran. Party politics before patriotism.

Trump’s Press Secretary, KKKaroline Leavitt, contradicted that understanding…
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-b2931933.html
Quote:
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has said President Donald Trump’s decision to attack Iran — which subsequently ignited a conflict that has sparked chaos across the Middle East — was grounded in what she called a “feeling based on fact” that Iran would imminently attack the United States and its allies.
“The president was not going to be just another president on a very long list who sat back and stood by and passed the buck of this direct threat to the next administration,” she said at a White House briefing when The Independent pressed her on the shifting explanations for the war offered by top administration officials since the weekend.
“The president had a feeling, again, based on fact, that Iran was going to strike the United States was going to strike our assets in the region, and he made a determination to launch Operation Epic Fury based on all of those reasons,” Leavitt added.

And so did Trump
Quote:
Trump himself contradicted that claim during a media availability with reporters Tuesday after he was asked if Israel had “forced his hand” with their own attack plans.
“Based on the way that the negotiations was going, I think that they were going to attack first. And I didn't want that to happen,” Trump said. “So if anything, I might have forced Israel's hand. But Israel was ready and we were ready.”

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
I'd rather believe Sephiroth than Trump and his Whitehouse minions, at least he doesn't compromise himself by changing his ideas and principles just to look 'more gooder' than he is.
