Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

The Kurds, you know, they're against the IDRC and they're going to come in and do this and try and put them in a position where maybe they'd get attacked and then they'd be pulled into it.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

So lots of possibilities here.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

But I just I would just say I'm not sure what's true about this.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

Well, there's a story that Amazon's Bahrain data center has been targeted by Iran because they're supporting the US military.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

I know there was a report about them being hit, or at least some of the Amazon data centers being hit in the area.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

They were damaged on Sunday.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

I think they were all offline at that point, but they had some structural damage, some power and water issues, things like that.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

I think there's some people advising that people migrate all their workloads to other regions.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

It looks like Bahrain region announced in 2019 that they were gonna start hosting government workloads.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

So they are doing something with the government, but we don't know exactly if they're supporting this military effort, but I would just put that in to say,

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

it's kind of hard to say like, where is Iran going to draw the line between military and civilian?

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

Because you would certainly think this is not a military facility, right?

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

It has nothing to do with the military.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

It's not, I mean, again, they might be supporting some kind of compute that's supporting some of the things the military are doing.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

It's hard to know exactly what's happening and where, but the facility itself is not military.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

It's not, you know, housing any soldiers, things like that.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

Well, the story is, and I think so, because the story is that they targeted it on purpose for that reason, and it came from a spokesman from Iran.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

So yeah, it looks like it was intentional that they were targeting that.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

It's been for many hundreds of years, I guess, tradition not to target civilians in military efforts.

Real Coffee with Scott Adams
Episode 3108 - The Scott Adams School 03/05/26

Westphalia was the agreement that was made to say, okay, we're going to have a separate military and a separate civilian, and we're not going to attack the civilian part.
