The peace simmers, but I expect a tepid peace to hold. Iran does not want war as of this moment with a state actor, never really did for two decades, and the Taliban doesn’t want to threaten their regime given if they are distracted with Iran, how will they assist their partners in Pakistan?

Of course, I understand the religious conflict between Sunni and Shia Islamists, but in the war against Iran, which is a veiled protectorate of the PRC, the Taliban have absolutely no chance, and this is a very weird move on the part of the Taliban.
Out of all the incorrect notions you have made, calling Iran a protectorate of China is the most egregious example. Iran has the consideration as an informal Israel to China what with having extensive business ties and implicit lobbying to get China to bend to its wants. China was hesitant to even bring along Iran to the SCO until Biden screwed the pooch with maximum pressure and AUKUS. Iran isn’t even like Pakistan where it has no option of choosing another partner or tacking it alone, it can do so and Iranian foreign policy is still looking to Europe at least to balance the powers off another. To my common knowledge, Afghanistan is more reliant on China for foreign trade considering the contract deals for mining still stand

Also this clash was about dams and water use, not religion. The liberal strain of basing worldviews around conflict of ideas holds no truth to reality.

A Pyrrhic victory in hindsight

Furthermore, the PRC and the Taliban are if anything more favorable to each other than the PRC and the Islamic Republic of Iran are to each other
In general, I agree with your posts, but it is difficult to imagine a stronger relationship than the one that has been established between the PRC and Iran since the eighties. Iranian aviation, Iranian missiles and Iranian nuclear power were generated by the PRC. There is a 25-year Cooperation Program between Iran and China. Iran is a member of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. Iran and the PRC are holding joint war games. The PRC is helping Iran covertly circumvent sanctions. Iran does not recognize the Republic of China. Iran supports the persecution of Sunnis in the PRC. Iran and the PRC are going to jointly restore the Great Silk Road. And so on. It is hard to imagine better relations between countries.
Iranian aviation is mostly still using old American models running on duct tape and Iran’s nuclear program was shaped more by Russia and Pakistan, with learned knowledge applied by American uni grads, than China’s model.

The rest of this is lolworthy and shows your lack of knowledge of the Islamic republic outside of liberal periodicals, but the commercial nature of this relationship isn’t hidden lmao.

By "liberal" I assume you mean "non-socialist" or "non-state socialist" or "non-leftist," or using "liberal" in the broadest sense (as in "anything other than socialism, feudalism, or fascism"), would I be correct? Because you should probably remember that you are on a forum specifically centered on American politics and its labels.

North Korea might not be the biggest troll country any more.
The Interior ministry of Afghanistan insinuated that Andrew Tate was a political prisoner. Rightist are always trolls.

Ftr, the North Korean leadership is too uptight in their own localized way—with homosexuality having even less stigma than among South Korean elite and women’s rights being similar to South Korea if it were to adopt common legal and state initiatives done by ML states at the time(duh)—to be considered trolls. They really are that dour, although that’s been changing for a while now.

Wow, already you’re fuming about being wrong. Normally libs just put me on ignore since they normally fail timelessly against someone who knows more than they do.

My family is from Iran and were taught their trades either in US universities or by American contractors in Iran. I do know more about my ancestral land than you do, as I know more reality objectively than the essential totality of this site. I clearly know more about communism and the USSR and PRC lines throughout time than you do. Pipe down

Lol, I could believe that your words are not a blatant manipulative lie if I saw confirmation of this even in the form of a location in your profile in Iran or an American university. But you listed your location as some place in South Central China and didn't provide a single bit of information that backed up your claims above.

Why don't you claim that you are an alien from Mars who studied at the University of Venus, and therefore only you can talk about matters in the Solar System?
Excuse me, but I am completing my migratory pattern back to Monte Carlo
