The world is currently on fire and, as such, touches all things, all places. Of course, I'm talking about the US-Israel-led preemptive strikes on Iran.
Normally, RideApart wouldn't be getting into geopolitics—even though that's what my Master's degree is in—apart from how illegal tariffs affect the powersports industry. But given how many freakin' races are held in that particularly small section of the world, well, it was bound to cause us to wade into those murky depths.
And it seems that the first few dominoes from those late-night strikes have already begun to fall, as Iran's backed-into-a-corner regime has begun striking US allies within the region, along with others unsupportive of its cause. Iranian missiles and drones have been fired at Saudi Arabia, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar. There have also been Israeli strikes in neighboring countries, including Lebanon. Basically, the whole region is currently on fire or actively shooting at each other.
