    So much for US intelligence on Iranian military capability. Hypersonic missiles and thousands of drones have changed the metrics for warfare.

    This new paradigm should be the end of the military industrial complex. Maybe Trump will cancel his order for new Trump class battleships. Are you feeling Luckey?

    Iran (Persia) is the birthplace for chess. The origins started in India but the game was refined in Persia. Unfortunately, it seems that our government was unaware of how to play chess with Iranians.

    The term “checkmate” originates from the Persian phrase shāh māt (شاه مات).This phrase was used in the Persian version of chess (called chatrang or later shatranj) after the game traveled from India to Persia (modern Iran) around the 6th–7th centuries AD. It literally means “the king is helpless” (or “the king is defeated/stumped/frozen/at a loss”).

    • Shāh (شاه) = “king” (the same root that gives us the English chess term “check”)
    • Māt (مات) = a Persian adjective meaning “helpless,” “defeated,” “astonished,” or “left without escape”

    …

    The concept of checkmate (putting the king in check with no legal escape) was already central to the game by the Persian period and carried over unchanged into modern chess. In the earliest Indian form (chaturanga), the goal was similar, but the specific Persian terminology stuck and spread worldwide along with the game.

    This is one of the clearest etymological trails in chess history—almost every major chess term (rook, check, chess itself) also traces back to Persian/Arabic roots from that same era. So while chess as a game began in India, the language we still use to end a game (“Checkmate!”) was coined in Persia.
