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

It comes down to how stupid the Gulf States are to allow this to be done. A better route, is via Syria and Türkiye and it will be a pure land corridor to Europe and Türkiye being a NATO member, means the west can help defend a large of those pipes.

There is a reason why Syria is being serenaded at the moment with the President of Syria in the UK at the moment.

Iraq ALREADY has pipes taking some of their oil to Türkiye !!! This proposed map is wrong at many levels.

This is wishful thinking by Israel. Too many factors working against Israel for something like this to take off.


I would have suggested Omani ports but their under attack as well so I think the best idea is a short subsea pipeline to Pakistan near Jiwani and Gwadar along with oil and LNG storages from where the world can buy their oil.

If you speak from pure financial pov it maybe less feasible but it becomes feasible once you understand the politics here

Multiple rocket impacts in israel, via Hizbollah, starting at 20s mark in 1st video .. no air defenses at all
 
Starting to watch this video. Asma Shirazi is generally credible and doesn't embellish her videos too much. So far, she is saying that the Pakistan's Army Chief was also present (secret!) in Beijing when Pakistan Foreign Minister went there to talk about the ongoing war, and there is a also public rally in Tehran where they are waving Pakistani flags and chanting 'Thank you Pakistan'. She is also talking about three emerging blocks globally after this war ends...

Future is simple, it stays open to all but US, Israeli ships and if the Gulf states stop hosting US bases their tankers pay no toll.

Thats how I would play it.
 
Do you even know what I was talking about? And do you know how ship escort was done?

Ship escort is going to be the same regardless of whether or not you are escorting the Atlantic convoy in 1942 or escorting a cargo ship from Somali pirates in 2013 or through the Strait of Hormuz. That's the same convoy system, that's the same convoy protection, that's the same tactics. You run a lead destroyer in front, a tailer destroyer behind, and 4 to 6 escort ships (maybe a corvette, maybe a frigate) pulling picket in a box formation, surrounding the ship you need to escort?

And are you seriously saying or suggesting that we should do an escort with an aircraft carrier? How about asking Trump himself on a sampan and flying a flag that said "Shoot here"?

If you know nothing, maybe best for you to not talk about anything?
First of all: calm down with your arrogance, this is a public forum, not Pentagon intranet.

Second who talked about using a carrier to escort?

I said USS Lincoln doesn't dare to sail in the strait, neither near Iran coast in the middle of current war, they keep going away from Iran.

If a carrier is afraid, how do you want less powerful warships going to the strait?
 
It would be a waste of missile to do so. Iran should target very high value economic and military targets to get the "best return on the cost of the missile relative to the cost of the target".

Israel is trying to "distract" Iran into attacking low value targets with these type of attacks by hoping to a tit-for-tat approach. Iran would do well to not fall for them.
It depends on the target. There are many HVTs in universities.

For example, they hit one of Iran's largest wind tunnels at Imam Sadigh University.

Yes, coz while the people fail to afford basic stuff and government employees refuse to work after not being paid for months .... the funding and fighting wars for israel is of the utmost importance for the US right now.
 
I understand how you feel, but it is inappropriate for you to criticize the statements of other countries.

This is a friend's reply to another post. I think what they said makes a lot of sense.

Maybe that's how it is in a communist country with the social credit system, but people on the internet are allowed to criticize the stances of other countries and it is not inappropriate at all. I mean what are you going to do? Prevent me from getting a loan from a Chinese bank? lol

And that other "friend" is also a CCP lover in Australia.

iran should put mines and prepare drones to attack any us warship passing

Iran should not even allow a single moment of buildup for troops
