Thoughts on the recent developments in the region as of today?

This is an opportunity to reshape the regional order. A potential scenario is a full-blown offensive by KSA, UAE, Egypt, etc., and a complete dismantling of the Iranian regime. Given that Iran has proved itself to be the main source of instability in the Middle East, this problem will require a solution at some point, and today is probably a good window of opportunity for it

Lol idk how people like you cosplay normal in the region - just go back and join ICE, raid the senate or smthng

I predict:
1. US boots on the ground, especially if the Kurds decide to get involved
2. Saudi getting involved from a distance, probably with air strikes
3. Houthis blocking bab al mandab straight
4. Rest of the gulf states being left alone

All mutually exclusive events.

Educate yourself on current war events. Iran took down a $1 billion (yes, with a B) THAAD battery with one $35k Shahed drone. And they’ve destroyed several high-value radars in Qatar, Bahrain, and the UAE. This is why you’re hearing interceptions before receiving any alerts. Their first part of the plan was to destroy radars and air defense systems, which they’ve done successfully.

US bases in the region are currently inhabitable, which is why they moved troops to hotels. Next thing you know, they’ll start targeting those troops. Iran has superior production capabilities of drones and missiles (and so do their proxies in Yemen and Lebanon). Mid-terms won’t start for at least half a year, so it’s either a TACO or a ground invasion for now.

By the way, this is based on analysis of actual satellite imagery, not a bold claim that “Iran doesn’t have much firepower left”, lmao

The US and Israel will get hit in their teeth so hard that their imperialistic view of the world order will change forever.

Unfortunately, for this to happen, a lot of more suffering will happen on every side. This war will not end any time soon

Best place to get pre-qualified for a mortgage?

I have some collections on my credit report. One from an electric company for $800 (imo they violated terms of contract and sent me to collections in spite of their fuck up), and an apartment for $80~ that charged me a cleaning fee when my apartment was spotless.

Despite these two collections have a 712-720 credit score.

So mortgage lenders care at all about the collections or is it mostly the credit score that matters?
