Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

[LX1111]

Bro, you're not Iranian...so it suspect when you tell an Iranian group they need to mount a full scale war......it's easy for you to say, you're sitting in comfort somewhere and you couldn't give 2 shits if Iran was obliterated tomorrow.
So, I'm going to ask the Russian, Chinese, etc... bros not to egg preemptive attacks or full scale war, because you're obviously blind to the optics.
I can turn the table....
Russia if it has any smarts should attack the US now! They're losers....they can't even defeat Ukraine, a bunch of farmers have held up the great Russian army.
China has no balls.....because it cannot stand up to the USA....if they had any balls they would've taken back Taiwan.....some super power, can't even defeat a small island.

Now how that feels as a Slav or Chinese person reading what an Iranian wrote.

Iran does not need to be so arrogant. Previously, Iran rejected assistance from China and Russia to demonstrate its independence, but now, on the brink of Iran's collapse, no one will come to its aid.

Iran faces not only military threats from Israel and the United States but also severe domestic inflation and rampant corruption within the religious establishment. This is the most critical issue—Iran lacks the ability to unite its people to help the regime resist attacks from Israel and the U.S.

There is not much sense in americans piling up forces in region, it means just more targets for iranian drones and missiles, only base in indian ocean is somewhat safe for sustained air campaign but attacks from one directions are easier to predict and handle but i am not sure if that one is also unreachable for iranians largest missiles.

You should send them usd dollars to contain inflation, that would be most painless strategic blow to americans by china ever, apparently russia already did send couple of billions.

Not a major war but a major decapitation strike. It looks like US is making sure when they strike they strike with so much force and ordinance at regime leadership, IRGC security forces and offensive/retaliation capability that Iran's ability to coordinate any counter is disrupted. Also they are likely flooding Iran with weapons for the "resistance" that is waiting for the go signal. The first 48 hours of strike will take out IADS, military and civilian communications, electrical power (electrical power will likely be a temporary off line a no structural damage) all missile bases and facilities including the caves where they store their missiles and of course leadership. US special forces will more than likely already be inside Iran hours or days before strike happens making contact with anti government forces. This will likely be a 4-5 day operation and Orangeman will declare peace after that and demand Nobel because he brought peace by stopping military operations.

I don't think it wil be a 4-5 day operation because Iran has the ability to close the Straits of Hormuz. If they have 2000 MRBMs then imagine how many thousands of SRBMs and tens of thousands of MLRS they have. Not just SRBMs, but even small MLRS system with 50-100kms range with no need for accuracy just mass salvos can be fired by local decentralized IRGC commanders to close the Hormuz Strait.

Iran is a very large country the size of many European countries, and if it's so easy to hunt down and stop 100% all missile fire from Iran they could have done so with the Houthis or even North Korea, since NK is a country with a landmass much smaller than Iran.

The US can't kill all IRGC personnel within 5 days, so even if the Leadership dies, local IRGC commanders can still retaliate back and close the Hormuz Strait and target USN ships.

Iranian Hypersonics aided by Chinese Beidou targeting can sink a USN aircraft carrier.

Wendy Sherman says that Araghchi is a very stubborn negotiator. Lol

I wonder, what do these pedophiles in Washington expect? What do they mean by stubborn?

As long as these pedophiles militarize the region and continue with their destabilizing policies, Iran will be there to counter them. Iran is not Venezuela to sell itself easily.

For them someone saying NO is not democratic, they prefer children who cannot answer (preferably under 3yo)

An eye-opening and massive number of C-17 Globemaster military transport and cargo planes have been observed heading to Europe and the Middle East, in what some monitors have forewarned looks like the build-up to major war in Iran.

One regional watcher and pundit commented in response: "112 C-17s are in or on their way to the Middle East. Guys, that’s a lot. Like Desert Storm a lot. Stay tuned."

At Least 112 USAF C-17 Aircraft Headed To Middle East: 'Desert Storm Levels'<!-- --> | ZeroHedge

ZeroHedge - On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero

www.zerohedge.com

According to Reuters national security correspondent: Last year it took around 73 C-17 Globemaster sorties to transport a single Patriot battalion from Asia to the ME. So why is 112 C-17s an eye-opening or massive number? Considering that the U.S. has to cover a wider area?

EDIT: I'll try to find the link, but it was Idrees Ali, he is the national security correspondent for Reuters.

EDIT 2: When the U.S. wanted to bolster its forces in the Middle East ahead of a potential conflict with Iran, it took 73 C-17 loads to move one Patriot air defense battalion across the globe, the head of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command testified before Congress on Thursday.

I dont get your point? involving religion and young girls in business deals is a cultural thing or a personal act, it is hard to discern at this point.

if it is a cultural thing, then, it is not a single person or single act.

Be thankful we have not got SU-35S yet or the fleet would have been rubbled on ground. Thats how much vulnerable airbases are. See what happened in recent wars/conflicts.

It's too late for "what if's" now but maybe if we had a modern air force, the US would've never dared to take out Haj Qassem in Iraq with a drone because he would've had air cover.
Maybe Israel and Republic of Azerbaijan would've never dared to take out our President inside our territory. Maybe Israel would've never dared to launch two large operations against us on its own. Basically, a chain of events that led to this point could've been stopped much earlier, or not even get initiated in the first place.

Most importantly, it would've been very easy to convince the Iranians about that huge spending while we were suffering under draconian sanctions. No Iranian would've challenged our decision to arm the IRIAF, or our ground forces, or create an IADS to defend our sky. However, Iran lost not only lost over 50 billion USD in Syria, but we also lost our regional and internal legitimacy by arming Assad to kill his own people.

Again, it's too late for what if's now. Our defense strategy at this point is offense by our missile forces and drones, but we are under-armed for that too.

The Jews have done the same thing to the leaders of Arab countries as they did to Trump.

They have given child sex slaves to Arab leaders, and they have filmed and photographed their rape of children, and they are using this as a tool of pressure.

INTERNET INTEL - GROUND INVASION Planned To Seize The Iranian Oil Fields

Last week, I reported that the United States had begun a significant deployment of ground forces to the Middle East by air, citing as one example a 747 operated by the U.S. Transportation Command, configured to carry 453 people, departing from Baltimore.

For this, I was accused of exaggerating and told there was no way the U.S. would launch any kind of ground invasion of Iran.

I can now confirm that the U.S. is indeed shipping M1A1 Abrams tanks to the Middle East, specifically to Jordan. (Image #2)

If the U.S. has no intention of entering Iran by land, why are we sending main battle tanks to Jordan?

I suspect the U.S. intends to seize the Iranian oil and gas fields. The map below shows that almost all of these fields are located in the far west of the country. (Image #3)

From the border with Armenia (where U.S. military equipment and troops are also flowing in) to the vicinity of the Kuwaiti border (where other U.S. forces are flowing in), and all the way to Bandar Abbas (facing the Persian Gulf and all our major Middle Eastern military bases/U.S. allies).

It seems to me that if we seize the Iranian oil and gas fields, the entire Iranian government will collapse within a week or two.

No long, drawn-out war.

This is just a guess, based on publicly available images and news reports.

This is actually very plausible and it is one of the scenarios that I have long considered to be the final blow.

This is why I say that the Islamic Republic has lost their last card: public support. It all started after Aban 98, but it got much worse after Mahsa Amini protests and the last month's protests. If the US manages to occupy Iranian territory in Khuzestan and Bushehr (two provinces of Iran that possess most of our oil and gas infrastructure), Iran is over. We will face severe cash shortage that could cause hyper inflation and famine.

In fact, Iranian economy has three pillars: 1. Tehran, as it contributes the most to our government's budget and GDP through taxing and industry, 2. Bushehr, and 3. Khuzestan. And all of these provinces are extremely anti-IR to the point that they will give Americans a heroic welcome instead of fighting back.

could be true, given our history.

But, I dont think, Epstein is the man to deal with us.

It could involve more rooted and proven setup like CIA and others (hard to identify and separate out like Esptein).

Most of these Arabs and Emiraties, are the owners of companies with thousands of employees. DP world is the largest port in the ME with thousands of employees. Why would they need Epstein for his services?!

If the US foolishly goes in for those 2 provinces, then Iran should go scorched-earth and take out every Gulf Arab oil refinery, massively mine Hormuz, and hit back at the US Navy with all anti-ship missiles they have.

Population-wise, Iran can overwhelm any US "boots on the ground" easily with suicide drones, suicide vehicles, mass MLRS and SRBM strikes at US Barracks and logistics nodes, striking oil facilities they occupy, and mass mobilization of Basijis.
