Not at all. In fact in the not too distant future it will prove to be a VERY accurate prediction.
Iran......isolated, cut off, all alone

Then why is Hormuz closed?

1. Claim: “Iran is isolated, cut off, all alone”
Fact check:
MisleadingIran is not “alone” internationally, though it is heavily sanctioned by the U.S. and some allies.
What is true:
- Iran faces significant U.S. and EU sanctions
- Relations with Western countries are strained
What is false or overstated:
Iran still maintains active relations with several major powers, including:
- China (major oil buyer and trade partner)
- Russia (military and strategic cooperation, especially since the Ukraine war)
- Regional partners and proxies (various Middle Eastern political and militia networks)
So Iran is not isolated globally, but rather geopolitically constrained and selectively partnered.2. “China and Russia have abandoned them”
Fact check:
False- China continues to import Iranian oil (often indirectly via sanctions-evasion channels)
- Russia and Iran have deepened cooperation, especially in:
- military drones
- defense coordination
- economic trade under sanctions pressure
There is no credible evidence that either country has “abandoned” Iran.
3. “They will get new leadership and have freedom”
Fact check:
Speculative prediction- Iran has experienced internal protests and political unrest
- However:
- There is no confirmed process underway for regime change
- No credible intelligence indicates imminent collapse of government leadership
This is a political prediction, not a fact.
4. “They will erect huge statues to POTUS Trump”
Fact check:
Pure fantasy / unsupported claim- There is no evidence or historical precedent suggesting Iranian society or government would celebrate a U.S. president in this way
- Iran’s political system is strongly anti–U.S. establishment in orientation, regardless of administration
This is rhetorical exaggeration, not reality-based analysis.
5. “This has a real chance to end well for all involved”
Fact check:
Opinion- This is a subjective political assessment
- There is no objective basis providedfor predicting outcomes like:
- regime change success
- peaceful transition
- universal positive outcome
Iranian political change scenarios are widely considered complex, uncertain, and potentially destabilizing, not guaranteed to “end well.”
Bottom line
This post:
- Misrepresents Iran as globally isolated (it is not)
- Incorrectly claims China and Russia have abandoned Iran
- Speculates about regime change without evidence
- Makes unrealistic claims about Trump being celebrated in Iran
- Presents opinion as geopolitical certainty

The Supreme Leader DEAD, No navy ships and the head of the navy dead. No significant air defense, multiple leaders dead. That is hardly lack of success.

An 'Islamic NATO' emerges as a counterweight to Israel
The joint Egyptian-Pakistani military drills currently underway in the south Asian country are not unprecedented.
But the two-week exercises bringing together special combat forces come as Pakistan, Egypt, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia edge towards a growing security alliance.
The quartet of countries has taken a series of steps in recent months to coordinate on pressing security and defense issues, including through intensified high-level contacts and meetings, a strategic alignment initially fueled by Israel’s airstrikes on Doha, Qatar in September 2025.
That attack, analysts say, widened the boundaries of the regional threat posed by Israel, while raising questions about the reliability of external security guarantors.
"Soon after those strikes, Arab states, especially in the Gulf region, realized that they would never be immune from Israeli attacks," Islam Mansi, an independent Egyptian political analyst, said.
As a result, Israel’s aggression against a major non-NATO ally, which was at the time mediating a ceasefire in Gaza, prompted regional states to reassess their security calculus.
A common defense pact between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan and a strategic defense partnership between the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and India were a direct consequence.
The US-Israel war on Iran launched on 28 February has produced additional shifts in the strategic thinking of key regional capitals, who see the conflict as a final stop on Israel’s journey to establish military hegemony in the Middle East.
The de facto annexation of the West Bank, together with calls to re-establish Israeli settlements in Gaza, and settler incursions into both Lebanon and Syria, have also fueled fears of territorial expansionism under the vision of ‘Greater Israel’, which Netanyahu himself endorsed last year.
The unjust war against Iran has thrown into sharp relief the lengths Israel is willing to go to militarily to achieve its objectives.
In the process, the entire Middle East has been held hostage, with Gulf countries, especially, suffering huge economic losses amid Iranian attacks, shattering the image of stability and growth carefully developed over decades.
The war has also disrupted the entire global economy, causing oil prices to soar and jeopardizing international supply chains.
This, analysts say, has underscored the need for regional powers to stabilise regional security and protect against future threats.
"Regional states, especially major ones, cannot keep standing idly by and watch while regional security is jeopardized for the pleasure of some radicals bent on changing regional maps and molding the regional system to suit their wildest dreams," Saudi political analyst Omar Saif said.
