Aren't embassies and consulates considered as sovereign soil? Iran's attack is the second direct attack between the two, after Israel attacked the Iranian embassy/consulate
They are not considered sovereign parts of Iran, no. Attackin an ebassy though is a really big deal regardless and there is a reason why most countries condemned what Israel did there
No, they’re considered “inviolable,” meaning the host country isn’t allowed to send its authorities into it without permission. Incidentally, Iran complaining about an attack on an embassy is rich indeed.

I would really like to know more about Azerbaijan, its government, people, politics in the region and so forth. Where do they stand as far as the situation with the IRGC, Israel and Hamas, and who do they ally with? We don't hear much about Azerbaijan, nor certain other countries in the region. EDIT: Thank you for all the replies! I learned a lot, and find it very interesting. I'm doing additional reading on Azerbaijan now.
I can imagine he would have to be somewhat careful with what he says on the topic, but it would be cool if he was able to give insights on what he can!
They serve Israeli interests by supplying 40% of Israel's oil. They have agreed to open their airspace to Israeli planes. They are not receptive to IRGC. They are also allied with Turkey as Azeris are also Turks. Turkey supplied them with drones that defeated the Armenian army. Azerbaijan is ruled by a dictatorship mafia family, similarly to Syria and North Korea. The history of Azerbaijan is that it was historically a province of Persia but the Russian empire invaded Iran and took Azerbaijan, incorporating it to themselves which carried on into the soviet union. They became independent after the fall of Soviets.
We can do what we want when we want….it just depends on political will and a leadership that doesn’t suck, lucky for Iran we have terrible leadership, for now.
Nows your chance China and Russia😏 Hmm humanity... apes with to many rabid ideas and weapons! Chimps are actually human instincts condensed into a dangerous body, a groin ripping one..
As an Azeri person, it is an honor for me to be irani, we have been a country with other iranian people since hundreds years ago and we are all share same cultures and history, israel dreams of seperating iran is just laughable for us.
In the last 4 years, iran hit 5 military bases that belong to the USA and Israel and those two couldn't even respond so that word sounds very accurate.
@faisalalkhedhrawi7311 If you say so, meanwhile, the rest of us will just keep seeing Iran grow more and more desperate and it will have nobody else to blame but it's own stupidity.

I agree. Coverage of Middle East became very generic, first: the sorta-sponsored coverage of UAE. And now, it’s playing with Iran’s and Israel’s narrative. Everyone in the Middle East knows Iran is only using Palestine’s plight to appear as “the other side”; whilst they bomb Syria and continued the genocide of ethnic minorities in the west and south of Iran. Both Iran and Israel are military dictatorships that justify the militarisation with fake “religious governments”. We don’t forget how Israel supplied Iran weapons, despite the sanctions, against Saddam’s Iraq (supported by the US) post-revolution. To keep Iran afloat and militarised and justify the existence of both governments.

How is Iran 'spreading the ashes of conflict' when they were responding to a bombing of their embassy, which under international law is sovereign territory...
@@John-wg9mb It's not illegal to attack military objects. Protected structures (schools, mosques, churches, etc) lose their protection once they become military in purpose. Embassies and consulates are protected if they are embassies and consulates. You can't use them as time-out zones to hide a military HQ.
peace is a western concept that suggest a static complacency of the status quo. Things are always changing and entropy tends to increase over time. Changing world orders do not occur peacefully. Just as colonial empires werent built peacefully. Sadly it will get worse. China is only biding its time and will attack after middle east is on fire.

"Iran may be spreading the ashes of conflict, it might end up inhaling the smog of its aftermath." Perfection 🤌 Bro! I'm telling you. You were born to make such videos. Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
moral of the story: if you are a proxy or about to be proxy (no matter what side) - you are guaranteed to get fukked. but all of them proxies are happy at the start of "cooperation"
As always, high quality videos! It's marvelous how you quickly made a video as early as possible regarding world events. Optime! Optime dico, amicus meus! I'm Iranian studying medicine in Turkey. This situation in the region isn't appetizing at all. However, thanks a lot for the continuous high quality videos and sağ olasan!
Great!. but the video felt like it was just setting the stage and introducing us to the players. Would love it it could be that this video is the 1st of a 5 to 10-part series. Going into possible strategies and motivations of each of the players.
You did a great job of providing the background on the Islamic Republic history of sowing chaos. Many don’t realize that Iran has been at war with BOTH the West and Arab countries for decades.
It’s true Iran has a lot of different ethnicities but what none Iranians fail to understand is most of these ethnicities are united under a Iranian state banner not a ethnic Persian banner, for example Azeri make up a large proportion of Irans militias they are historically a military people while Persians make up more governmental positions, Israel for the past 20 years has tried to start ethnic insurgency in Iranian Kurdistan Iranian Baluchistan and Iranian Azerbaijan with all 3 failing, Iranian Kurds themselves crushed the Kurdish rebellion, Iranian Baluchs are the one fighting the Baluch separatists and the Azeri separatists are so few they haven’t started a insurgency yet, anyway we are all united Iranian and none Iranian behind our leader Imam Khamenei💚
I never caught the similarity of the Quds-derived flags that feature a hand holding an AK before seeing them on that map. A Persian friend told me years ago that the rule of thumb for terror groups was "Books & Swords = Sunni" and "AKs & Green = Shia." Putting together Russio-Iranian relations, Iran's Shia gov't, and the Quds forces that rule starts to make more sense (if not without exceptions).
I am azeri and we are NOT separatists at all.. we love our country iran. Dont forget that iran can swallow the republic of Azerbaijan anytime it wants.
How do you not start with the Israel attack on Iran. You have been showing your bias since October. Your channel was much better when you didn’t favor one over the other. Really disappointing bc I can no longer recommend your channel for geopolitics ✌🏼
@@Lord_Retrospect if we were talking Gaddafi I could agree but not in this scenario You just can't put the reaction of local powers to the same height of westerners building colonies and military bases hundreds of thousands kilometers away from their homes, murdering natives, stealing their lands and resources There's only one acting superpower in that region, everyone else just react to their presence
Consulate, not embassy. And a building full of military personnel directly I evolved in attacks on Israel. Contrary to popular belief, consulate or embassies are also not sovereign territory.
Regardless of our views on their ideology, the strategic acumen of Iranian politics is undeniable. Iran has effectively used Shia Islam to establish regional influence and is now on the verge of acquiring nuclear capabilities-despite decades of American opposition. They have succeeded in forging a robust, independent nation. Critics often point out their heavy investment in military power and support for militias abroad; however, it's important to recognize that becoming an economic superpower necessitates first securing the means for self-defense.
@@ChucksSEADnDEAD In the realm of politics, one must adopt an aggressive stance and secure assets within one's region to ensure self-defense. For instance, Russia attacked Ukraine because Ukraine, located within its sphere of influence, was considering joining NATO, which Russia perceives as an enemy. Similarly, America would never tolerate Mexico or Canada falling under Chinese control. This is the nature of global politics; it is not idealistic, but rather harsh and pragmatic.
@@mouradmhm3244 Ukraine considered joining NATO in the 2000s but major NATO nations refused. Russia attacked Ukraine because of Putin. That's it. He's the one who believed he was the mastermind fooling the West, that he was another great Russian leader, he was the one who needed a final heroic act to put his name in history. When Ukraine was thinking of joining NATO, Medvedev said that they were free to pick alliances and Putin said Crimea was Ukraine. Russia sees NATO as an enemy, but Russia really loved NATO money. Why did they build a pipeline towards Germany if Germany is NATO? Why did Tucker try to get Putin to say NATO provoked him, and Putin essentially said NATO doesn't matter? In 2014, Russia attacked Ukraine because after Russia embargoed Ukrainian goods as leverage, the people got out into the streets and demanded EU membership. That's why they attacked. It wasn't NATO. It was the fact that Ukraine would follow other Eastern European nations and detach from Russia. Canada actually signed a military cooperation treaty with China in 2012/2013. Nobody cared.

FINALLY a Caspian Report on the Iran-Israel situation. **Running to the fridge to get a cold beer to enjoy while watching** EDIT: Shirvan, you bastard! 😅🤍It was such a well thought-out documentary, that I completely forgot my giant glass of beer right in front of me, and fell into long inner monologues about what might happen if China now go into Taiwan and North-Korea start shelling Seoul. It's a frightening and even more complex mix of alliances, then before the outbreak of WW1. Have you written, or considered to write a book? I'd be one of the first to buy one. Specially an audio-book edition, with you narrating. I think you have a Zbigniew Brzezinski level understanding of Eurasian Geopolitics, with your expertise seemingly on Asia, an area I'd like to learn more about, and after all the most populated area of the world, very important to understand what might happen to our complicated world, and the future of our grandchildren.
How does anyone even take this seriously? Iran responded to a direct attack from Israel and it has a right to do so. Tons of outright falsehoods peppered throughout this video. Hamas isn't an Iranian proxy, it operates independently of Iran and is a violent resistance front that exists due to the ongoing occupation and genocide in Palestine. That is the truth whether we like it or not.
@@mustafahassan7781 you Mohammeds are so s***id its insane, first you say Israel controls the US, not its the other way? so which one is it ahmed? maybe ask your 6 year old wife as well
I found no articles on Hamas being an Iranian proxy from a reliable disinterested source. All articles asserting this alliance were American, British and Israeli, all of which I dismiss without a second thought as biased and probably disinformation given they track record on Ukraine. Why would a Sunni Musim group like Hamas ally themselves with Shia Iran let alone subordinate themselves as you allege to Shia Iran?
@@omarkhaled4868 Perhaps you have no Muslim friends but mine, being Sunni, hold the Shia in a distinct type of loathing similar to that of the Catholics and Ptrotestants during the 16th and 17th century Wars of Religion. If Israel and its parasitic hosts the US and UK have pushed them, the two sects of Islam, to unite aganst a common enemy then the Middle East is in for serious turmoil.

@@Storming360 IRGC is a paramilitary charged to defend Islamic Republic (Not Iranians) the regime against external internal force. They were the backbone of shutting down protesters during 2022 massive protests.
@@Storming360IRGC is considered a paramilitary force because it operates alongside Iran's regular armed forces with a broad mandate that includes their national defense, internal security, and various non-military roles such as political and economic activities. This dual nature of military and civilian operations is characteristic of paramilitary organizations. So yes, they technically are paramilitary.
I agree with the facts, but the summary/title is odd/clickbaity. If anything, it’s Iran that’s been checkmated. Israel assassinates their leadership overseas and irans response was completely castrated.
They ANNOUNCED what they were going to do. Why would they do that? Are they dumb? Nope. They were testing how many need to be sent to overwhelm the Iron Dome. Now they know.
You call a telegraph response that was announced to the enemy 3 DAYS ahead of an attack as "castrated". A defense that required a 3 DAY notice, with a layered defense spread throughout 5 countries (Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Israel), funded by the richest and most advanced military in the world. A defense that required over $1 billion to fund for just a few hours. Even then, the U.S military shot down the vast majority and are passing credit to the Israelis to keep them quiet.
Countries that Iran holds great influence over and is or can wield a very high degree of soft power over as part of its empire: Iraq, Syria, Azerbajian, Armenia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Yemen, Oman, Nigeria.
Azerbaijan is much closer to Turkey and they both would love to take a swing at Iran. There's a reason why Armenians flew Iranian flags when Russia abandoned them.
@@ChucksSEADnDEAD True but the socialist dictator Ilham Aliyev is sitting on pins and needles as he's just one bullet away from a Shia Islamist takeover. Azerbaijan is 65% shia and crawling with clerics.
Why would Armenia ever be influenced by Iran? It's a nation of genocide-survivors, similar to Israel. I haven't had the impression that Armenia is close to ANY of the close, Muslim nations. But I admit I haven't studied anything about Armenia, other then history from the ancient world.
@@elvenkind6072Actually its cause Israel supported Azerbaijan in their war against Armenia While Armenia who was supposed to be supported by Russia was not supported by them so in their time of need Iran actually came to their aid and provided them weapons Armenia lost but they are still good allies with Iran also religion doesn't have much to do with geopolitics Iran supports Armenia Israel supports Azerbaijan India supports Afghanistan Saudi and Jordan support Israel Egypt supports Ethiopia You get the point

I would really like to know more about Azerbaijan, its government, people, politics in the region and so forth. Where do they stand as far as the situation with the IRGC, Israel and Hamas, and who do they ally with? We don't hear much about Azerbaijan, nor certain other countries in the region.
EDIT: Thank you for all the replies! I learned a lot, and find it very interesting. I'm doing additional reading on Azerbaijan now.
they're sort of an ally of Israel because Iran is their common enemy.
I can imagine he would have to be somewhat careful with what he says on the topic, but it would be cool if he was able to give insights on what he can!
That's a bit like asking someone in Russia to talk directly about Putin and Russian politics...
They serve Israeli interests by supplying 40% of Israel's oil. They have agreed to open their airspace to Israeli planes. They are not receptive to IRGC. They are also allied with Turkey as Azeris are also Turks. Turkey supplied them with drones that defeated the Armenian army.
Azerbaijan is ruled by a dictatorship mafia family, similarly to Syria and North Korea.
The history of Azerbaijan is that it was historically a province of Persia but the Russian empire invaded Iran and took Azerbaijan, incorporating it to themselves which carried on into the soviet union. They became independent after the fall of Soviets.

@@Whiskey-XXX the channel seems robotic now. like those AI channels. his content used to be really good. but it grates on the ears. it doesn't seem human
I agree. Coverage of Middle East became very generic, first: the sorta-sponsored coverage of UAE. And now, it’s playing with Iran’s and Israel’s narrative. Everyone in the Middle East knows Iran is only using Palestine’s plight to appear as “the other side”; whilst they bomb Syria and continued the genocide of ethnic minorities in the west and south of Iran.
Both Iran and Israel are military dictatorships that justify the militarisation with fake “religious governments”. We don’t forget how Israel supplied Iran weapons, despite the sanctions, against Saddam’s Iraq (supported by the US) post-revolution. To keep Iran afloat and militarised and justify the existence of both governments.

You did a great job of providing the background on the Islamic Republic history of sowing chaos. Many don’t realize that Iran has been at war with BOTH the West and Arab countries for decades.
Arab dictators are US puppets and have no legitimacy, but the Arab public support Iran against Zionists
It’s true Iran has a lot of different ethnicities but what none Iranians fail to understand is most of these ethnicities are united under a Iranian state banner not a ethnic Persian banner, for example Azeri make up a large proportion of Irans militias they are historically a military people while Persians make up more governmental positions, Israel for the past 20 years has tried to start ethnic insurgency in Iranian Kurdistan Iranian Baluchistan and Iranian Azerbaijan with all 3 failing, Iranian Kurds themselves crushed the Kurdish rebellion, Iranian Baluchs are the one fighting the Baluch separatists and the Azeri separatists are so few they haven’t started a insurgency yet, anyway we are all united Iranian and none Iranian behind our leader Imam Khamenei💚

Regardless of our views on their ideology, the strategic acumen of Iranian politics is undeniable. Iran has effectively used Shia Islam to establish regional influence and is now on the verge of acquiring nuclear capabilities-despite decades of American opposition. They have succeeded in forging a robust, independent nation. Critics often point out their heavy investment in military power and support for militias abroad; however, it's important to recognize that becoming an economic superpower necessitates first securing the means for self-defense.
And attacking others secures self-defence how?
@@ChucksSEADnDEAD In the realm of politics, one must adopt an aggressive stance and secure assets within one's region to ensure self-defense. For instance, Russia attacked Ukraine because Ukraine, located within its sphere of influence, was considering joining NATO, which Russia perceives as an enemy. Similarly, America would never tolerate Mexico or Canada falling under Chinese control. This is the nature of global politics; it is not idealistic, but rather harsh and pragmatic.
@@mouradmhm3244 Ukraine considered joining NATO in the 2000s but major NATO nations refused.
Russia attacked Ukraine because of Putin. That's it. He's the one who believed he was the mastermind fooling the West, that he was another great Russian leader, he was the one who needed a final heroic act to put his name in history.
When Ukraine was thinking of joining NATO, Medvedev said that they were free to pick alliances and Putin said Crimea was Ukraine.
Russia sees NATO as an enemy, but Russia really loved NATO money. Why did they build a pipeline towards Germany if Germany is NATO? Why did Tucker try to get Putin to say NATO provoked him, and Putin essentially said NATO doesn't matter?
In 2014, Russia attacked Ukraine because after Russia embargoed Ukrainian goods as leverage, the people got out into the streets and demanded EU membership. That's why they attacked. It wasn't NATO. It was the fact that Ukraine would follow other Eastern European nations and detach from Russia.
Canada actually signed a military cooperation treaty with China in 2012/2013. Nobody cared.

How does anyone even take this seriously? Iran responded to a direct attack from Israel and it has a right to do so. Tons of outright falsehoods peppered throughout this video. Hamas isn't an Iranian proxy, it operates independently of Iran and is a violent resistance front that exists due to the ongoing occupation and genocide in Palestine.
