    Smart, hit them in the pocketbook. Just like when they hit that Amazon data center.

      The US will backstop any of Musk’s losses through its functionally unlimited pocketbooks.

      Iran’s attack on the Amazon data center was a strategic strike on a military installation used to coordinate offenses into Iranian territory. It won’t affect Bezos’s bottom line negatively. He may even come out ahead, depending on how the facility is insured.

      It’s possible that Musk has similar facilities set up around the Middle East, particularly with regard to their Starlink network. But I would weigh the possibility that Musk’s shit is so foul that Iranians do more harm blowing it up than allowing the Americans to continue relying on it.

    Oh no they did-int! C’mon! America is waiting! Take a shot you big Israel or Iran city state or country or guy! Take several shots while you’re at it! We’ll see who’s the boss! I bet they couldn’t even hack all teslas and have them accidentally scrape the median.

    Don’t need to threaten. No one would buy overpriced Tesla cars as the chinese EV cars are cheaper. Sooner or later Tesla will just close down their factories in the Middle East
