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

[东风夜放花千树]

There is a concerns among the local population that fake IDs on social media are tarnishing UAE's image. These trolls want Arabs to fight Iran and then both diminishing each other's firepower significantly.

Another viewpoint is that both sides know about it and that's why there's no significant escalation from either side. Iran is only hitting the bases and the airports where they suspect American assets' presence.

This is frustrating both Israel and Trump administration. When you see Trump swearing at the Arab leaders, it means that he was looking forward to a full scale war between Iran and GCC which hasn't started yet.

I hope neither side takes the bait.

Your point is absolutely correct. Remaining neutral now is most in line with the interests of Middle Eastern countries.

The U.S. military bases and Israel's expansionism are the cancer of the Islamic world.

Infrastructure destruction started by Israel.

Iran will retaliate...

Bye bye world economy. Specially for middle East...

May be good news for karachi port

Pakistan need to fast track implement tax free cargo shipment on port.

Tsx should be implemented on import. Not on port for store and reshipment

The irony is trumpy respects general Suleimani more than MBS. His always loved strong men.

For example, Clinton?

How many countries in the world - leave aside USA - will be accepting of exclusive Iranian control over the Strait of Hormuz given its role in global energy supplies?

Iranian control over Hormuz, whole of ME and even whole of the world is far far better than Zion's control of a single city or a port. The most important geopolitical, strategic, economic, social and moral question of our era is the existence of a Zionist state in ME and its hegemonic designs.

No sidetracking, no clever questioning or rephrasing of words will distract us from the real issue that is carcinogenic existence of an illegitimate entity. Lets discuss how many countries in the world will be accepting of exclusive domination of ME by a child loving, peace loving outcasts of eastern Europeans?

Absolute evil. Hope Hezbollah can find a way to respond effectively.

Nobody better complain if a unit is sent into Israel to mow down Israeli terrorists.

This is a despicable terrorist nation and the whole Jewish race is evil.

Not one Jew has come out to condemn this crime

And no he is not an undercover special forces fighter. He's always been a journalist. Working for numerous Lebanese media organizations over the years.

Israeli army literally announced they murdered them on purpose ! They are journalists ! Off limits !

Urgent | Israeli Army: We targeted Al-Manar channel correspondent Ali Shuaib in southern #Lebanon and he was eliminated

I for one am not surprised. IDF Israeli soldiers have been known for sniping little children's heads off. There are multiple Global NGOs that have verified this fact. A nation that kills children will not think twice to kill journalists. Israel is evil. People have to understand much and get over any sort of humanity coming from Israeli side.

The Jewish race is an purely evil. Hope the Lebanese people kick their asses

Imagine the reaction if Hamas or Hezbollah deliberately targeted an Israeli journalist

This is why Middle Easterners and Muslims need force multipliers to punish this evil country

Then you didn't follow the Crusades, the importance of the 'Holy Places' in Palestine, nor do you follow the current regional sentiments about them.

I know about crusades, but modern times have nothing resembling those days. Neither side is invoking religion. Ayatollah has never mentioned 'Jihad' on warring countries. Iran is even happily chucking missiles towards 'Holy places', some of which have fallen near the Wall. The Dome is not far away.

Dont know whose advising Trump - a ground invasion would be suicidal -
The petro dollar would cease to exist and that would be catastrophic for the US

This is the resume of the United States Secretary of War.

In 2003, Hegseth joined Bear Stearns as an equity capital markets analyst and was appointed an infantry officer in the Minnesota National Guard. In 2004, his unit was called up to the Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where he served as an infantry platoon leader; after returning from Cuba, he went to serve in Iraq as an infantry platoon leader, eventually rising to the rank of Army Major; after returning from Iraq, he briefly worked at the Manhattan Institute until leaving in 2007. He then became the executive director of the political advocacy organization 'Vets For Freedom' and worked in that position until 2012. In 2012, he founded the 'Minnesota PAC.' In 2014, he joined Fox News and gradually became an important conservative voice on the platform. In 2016, he publicly supported Donald Trump in his presidential campaign. In November 2024, he was involved in a case of alleged sexual assault. On January 25, 2025, he was sworn in as Secretary of Defense.

Such an experience would not allow one to command an army in most countries, but in the United States, it is possible to serve as the Secretary of War.

BREAKING NEWS:

Iranian attacks against Qatar have stopped, and the city will reopen its government offices, banks, and schools.

Qatar has also declared that it is distancing itself from the war and will not participate in any escalation of the conflict.

At least one GCC stooge has learnt it's lesson. Iran should keep teaching the other GCC scum the lesson.

Israel has far evolved beyond its refuge for the persecuted Jews of Europe and from its role in the Cold War to have now become a regionally destabilizing force with its sole purpose to be a dagger in the heart of the Islamic World for remote powers' geopolitics while Israelis expand their borders to some mythical Biblical world.

That's what I think of as truth about the modern state of Israel. The regional countries may have sectarian, ethnic or minor territorial differences but they don't have any overarching hegemonic, racially superior paradigms in their populations. Remove the Israeli cancer in its Likud form, the regional countries are more likely to fall into some EU like equilibrium over a few years or at most a couple of decades, if left alone.
