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

[SecularNationalist]

If that is the case, Iran should destroy Saudi, Kuwait, Bahrain, and uae oil and gas. trump wants pain for the Iranians to force capitulation so the straits reopen so there is no economic collapse blamed on the trump war. If that is the case, then no reason other than provide a closing of most middle east oil and gas at the source, so there is no reason to cause pain to Iranian people. trump would destroy Iranian oil and gas and it would be a worse global energy crisis. Iran could up fees to 10 million a ship to pass the straits and recoup damages.

And that's exactly what Iran is going to do.

Then why doesn't Iran also be obligated to hit Japan, South Korea and Italy.....

Iran is also enjoying the hits on the Arab world, they finally got their chance

Because those bases are not directly used for aggression against Iran.
There have been cases of direct aggression on Iranian territory from US bases in the Persian Gulf. For example, the US has fired HIMARS on our territory from Kuwait and the Emirates.

The US hasn't launched IRBMs against us from South Korea and Japan, have they?

So, what do you think? Do you think it was a missile city?

Can somebody confirm if this looks like an explosion caused by a bunker buster?

It seems to me that they hit something on the surface because with a bunker buster, you'd expect some sort of delay before the primary explosion as it penetrates deep in the ground.

I suspect it wasn't a missile base. Probably something related to the IRIAA or artillery storage.

And that's exactly what Iran is going to do.

Nay sayers are going to say that would hand the US oil and gas production dominance. Except, it would allow export of Iraqi and omani oil. And Qatar gas.

If Iran does not do this, Iran would face the prospect of a UN war on Iran, along with sanctions and UN legitimacy to a global war on Iran, rather than a trump war on Iran that nations hate trump for the war. Or face defeat and trump victory.

UAE is forcing the hand of Iran here in going to the UN. trump in switching to more and more collective punishment of civilians to get Iran to open the straits is forcing the hand of Iran.

Keep Hormuz closed, shut down oil and gas in most gulf states.

Could be, based on the scale of secondary explosions.

Wasn't Kuwait and/or uae hosting US troops for possible landing operations/ground invasion operations. Or were those rumors.

They have been flying missions out of there and that too actively, especially from Italy.

US does launch and recover aircraft from Japan and South Korea, they stay a few hours in the region, recover and then fly back up a few days later.
