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

[Gripen9]

Chinese were reluctant to sell fighter aircraft to Iran as it would jeopardize their commercial relationship with the GCC. Iran could have overcome that obstacle with enough attention and relationship building with China but did not do so.

Didn’t Chinese announce a $400B investment in Iran a few years ago?
Pretty sure GCC did not care for that.

I was in Iran and my youngest uncle passed away on the first day of war after they shut down the internet. It was such an unexpected news.

I didn't have access to the internet. I'm surprised that some Iranian members here have been able to get online. The whole nation is in a digital blackout in Iran. I have left Iran at the moment, after staying for Nowruz. I might be less active for a while but I'll try to visit PDF more often.

some are able to connect to certain VPN's, and I think buying private ip's are working

Look how the Western media just snowed the F-35 under.

What happened to the F-35 ? Did the search and rescue team found it? What was te damage?

Why did they stop talking about it?

Because its the most expensive and important jet in the West? And there is a whole industry and a lot of jobs involved?

“Free press”

“Free world”

“Independant journalists”

To hell with you fake and phony “standards”.

Westerners are hypocrites.

Theory:

America could do a regime change in UAE instead of Iran.

Think about it:
If the UAE is unable to defend itself and is open for the taking like Venezuela and Greenland.
1. Dubai model has failed
2. It can become an American colony
3. Direct Middle East base
4. Israeli base
5. Expel all the locals who are a very small population unable to fight
6. Give Hindus residence with living standards better than India
7. Already built out infrastructure
Now Americans will control the Strait of Hormuz

They are too tamed to be change.

Whatever BB or Trump would say they will fallow.

some Iranian media channels are reporting that the US/Israel recently attacked energy infrastructure in Khorramshahr and Esfahan.

Iran should use this opportunity to escalate severely instead of allowing the enemy to decide the timing and pace of escalation.

unfortunately, each time our leaders say that we have entered a new phase, or changed our doctrine to offensive operations, it is not true, and our operations remain fundamentally reactive and defensive in nature.

Him trying to calm markets only lasts for a couple of days before it skyrockets again trying to put a band aid on it isn’t going to last much longer still waiting for that imaginary armada that he promised was going to escort ships

But how can a VPN work in this case? As far as I understand, no system in Iran has access to the internet. So, to tunnel your traffic through a VPN, first you need to establish a connection with that system, which is impossible, no?

Pretty good analysis on where the US is most likely to actually deploy their marines if they decide to do it:

Or option 5, just send these marines for market manipulation and to buy time, showing the world "We have a plan"

[Oldenwisdom...قول بزرگ]

there is no prospect of an imminent deal with the US.

Trump is buying time for escalation.

Iran must use this time to prepare.

At this point... he's playing everyone(foremost Americans) for fools in the stock market.

The response should also be losses on his positions in the market and his coterie of conmen! Because losses and real life pain is for everyday people globally while he raids the bank.
Mideast burns... People die and he makes buck on their death.
For him and those prosperity gospel eyes wide shut crowd only FINANCIAL PAIN matters... which no other suffering can replicate.

Guess it wasn’t JD Vance, will still watch the flight as the route looks like it’s going Islamabad.

I didn't get the relevance of your post. What are you referring to?

We were talking about the kitchen fire that happened in USS Gerald Fold, not Lincoln.

The Abraham crap got routed 2 weeks ago........
