Despite President Donald Trump's assertions that the US is prevailing, tit-for-tat strikes continue between the US and Iran. Bloomberg News Diplomacy & National Security Correspondent Courtney McBride
Trump's an absolute idiot with his 'excursions' into the abyss of chaos and carnage on civilian targets which have retaliation consequences for all Gulf states, the Middle East and to the world economy causing ever higher prices for everything for everyone
Where are we and where are we headed? Referring to the present time, Jesus announced, "You will certainly later hear about battles [That's where we're at right now], thereafter the sounds of ongoing battles [And we are heading in that direction. The current regional battles will turn into a major war. However, there will be no direct confrontation between Russia and the United States]. Behold, do not be alarmed; for all must come to pass, but it is not yet the fulfillment [of the sign = the global nuclear war]." (Matthew 24:6)
"When you later hear about battles, thereafter the commotions of war, do not be terrified; for these must first happen, but the fulfillment [of the sign] not immediately." (Luke 21:9)
Wars have always been around. And that’s certainly not what Jesus wanted to tell us. The earlier wars (among others WW1, WW2) did not carry the risk of turning into a sign of Jesus recorded in Matthew 24:7; Mark 13:8; Luke 21:10, 11.
Jesus is talking about one war that some have already called WW3. This war will not escalate into a global nuclear war. This is the scenario of a great war that will precede the fulfillment of the sign.
The US military is a disgrace. They are happily following illegal and unconstitutional orders. Don't let anyone try and convince you otherwise. None of them deserve an ounce of respect when they come home - NOT ONE OUNCE.
so people launching airstrikes on multiple countries is not a war...ok

It’s stressful watching these headlines cycle every day. You hope for some kind of resolution, but it feels like we're just stuck in this loop of escalation. Does anyone actually see a clear exit strategy here, or are we just waiting for something bigger to happen?

I agree, Mara, it feels incredibly volatile right now. Do you think any diplomatic path is even possible at this stage?

It's worrying to see these tit-for-tat strikes continuing despite the claims that things are under control. Courtney McBride really highlights how unstable this situation feels. Do you think there's a realistic path to diplomacy here, or are we stuck in this cycle?
