We don't know the level of threat... only Iran knows that (and if the USA and others had condemned the Israeli attack on Iran, in Syria, then the threat would be far lower than it currently is).

I don't blame traders for going above the market level by a percent or two in case of something big over the weekend. It's very unlikely to happen. No big powers have ever fought each other directly for decades. It's not going to start now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn't happened for decades therefore it's not going to happen now. Right. That makes so much sense. Edited April 12 by anonguest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, when has anyone purposefully bombed an embassy and killed a foreign general in the process, over recent decades/ever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoHPCinTheUK Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 China exports are down 6pc. The markets have just realised this was the bottom for the inflation rate and that from now on it will only go up. If Iran sends the drones Monday is going to be on of those days we will remember. Quite frankly we need the clowns like stewy to learn the lesson the hard way.

Probably to make simpletons such as yourself dash out to buy petrol, tinnies and popcorn, and to keep the population in the appropriate amount of mild fear just incase they need an excuse to launch the next gulf war. Let me guess, you were hoarding toilet paper during the last lockdown? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frederico Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 It’s just the usual, ignore, get on with life. At the end of the day imo Israel has gone way too far . But if anyone else attacks anyone else it’ll be a little skirmish, it takes months to build up a decent force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maghull Mike Posted April 12 Author Share Posted April 12 I think there was a rumor that the attack was on.................no, not yet alest.......Iran is too smart, i wonder if they pull a "False flag" over the weekend? Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sackboii Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) Several emails from the foreign office in the last hour or so advising against travel to various countries in the Middle East. I’ve been signed up to these alerts for around 15 years, and even though I’m long past going anywhere near them again, I’ve left the alerts in place. I remember being in the JW Marriott in Cairo in 2013 when Mohamed Morsi was overthrown. That was interesting, not..
