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

❗️Iran rebuilding missile capabilities during ceasefire — Israel's Channel 14

A Channel 14 report dated 16 April claims Iran has launched a large-scale engineering operation to restore its missile infrastructure following recent strikes, using the ceasefire window to accelerate recovery efforts.

Satellite imagery cited in the report reportedly shows heavy machinery deployed at the Imam Ali missile base in western Iran, where teams are working to extract launchers buried under debris after bunker-busting attacks.

The report alleges that Iran is using specialized Chinese lifting equipment and Russian technical expertise to recover and assess damaged systems, with some components reportedly being replaced or upgraded to improve accuracy and resilience.

According to the report, Tehran is also reinforcing its missile sites by deepening underground facilities and constructing additional protective layers, while deploying mobile air defense systems to secure reconstruction zones.

Despite economic pressure and a US naval blockade, Iran has reportedly allocated significant emergency funding — sourced in part from oil sales — to prioritize military recovery. Israeli security sources cited in the report warns that amid ongoing diplomatic efforts, Iran is working to rebuild and fortify its capabilities, potentially emerging from the ceasefire with a more durable and advanced missile network.

I understand what you mean, but you're wrong. Trump and Bush are completely different American presidents.

Although Bush has a lower IQ, he is still a qualified and mature politician. And Trump, everyone know he.

After the end of the Iraq War, China did indeed receive the most oil contracts. This is because the Iraqi government is not providing high profit product sharing contracts, but low profit technical service contracts. Western oil companies are not very interested in it. Secondly, the environment in Iraq was not safe at that time, and Western oil companies were unwilling to make risky investments to restore development. So Bush agreed to allow China National Petroleum Corporation to take over the oil contracts in Iraq.

And Trump is a lunatic, he doesn't care about the interests of the occupied territories like Bush does. He would rather have the occupied territories forever in chaos than agree to China taking over the oil contract.

For example, do you know what Venezuela looks like now? After the war, Venezuela's inflation reached 682%, per capita savings decreased to $50, and the minimum monthly wage was 27 cents.

Why has Venezuela become like this? Because after the war, Trump not only plundered all of Venezuela's oil reserves, but also mandated that all of Venezuela's oil revenues must be deposited into a Federal Reserve regulated account and not used without approval from the United States. Trump also banned Venezuela from exporting oil to China, but Venezuela is a super heavy oil that only China and the United States can refine in the world. China no longer purchases Venezuelan oil, and American companies have not increased their purchases. Trump demands Chevron and ExxonMobil to invest in restarting oil wells in Venezuela, restoring production capacity to 2 million barrels. But these American companies are unwilling to invest. Trump also restricted the quantity of Chinese goods imported by Venezuela, which led to a faster deterioration of inflation.

The current situation in Venezuela has proven that Trump and Bush are two completely different types of American presidents. Trump would rather have all the people in the occupied area die than agree to Chinese companies taking over reconstruction orders.




Nationwide protests are erupting in Venezuela:

You also need to consider Israel's position. Jews will never allow Trump to allow China to rebuild Iran.

For Israel, even if Iran has a pro Israel regime, it is a huge threat.

Two very simple questions:

Who can guarantee that the United States will always be able to shelter Israel?

Who can guarantee that the future Iranian regime will not oppose Israel?

For Israel, it must make Iran fragmented, war-torn, or Syrian. Whether the new Iranian government is pro Israel or not.

Did everyone notice in that 'viral' video made by an Iranian poet where the Pakistani Army Chief is praised that there are the images of Modi hugging Netanyahu just before this war on Iran was launched? The video had 'Dushman' (Enemy) to describe that image.
I can't believe how stupid Indian foreign policy has become.

Iranian media: Pakistan's Gwadar ports and Oman's ports can serve as suitable alternatives to the UAE, which has proven its enmity in this war with Iran

I am surprised we hadn't replaced the Emirates with Oman earlier.

Oman has proven to be a friendly country towards Iran times and times again. They have passed the test of time. We have had 60 years of close brotherly friendship, and Oman has been always balancing their relations with the USA and Iran after the revolution.

On the other hand, the Emirates held the investments of Iranians after the Dubai housing crash in 2009 and recently, has openly questioned our sovereignty and ownership of the three islands, and has never missed a chance to undermine our national security and territorial integrity.

The problem with any "post" war martime patrolling is that it is entirely pointless. The moment Iran says, it is closed, it will be closed. It is not like these countries are going to fight Iran to keep it open.

A lot of Iranians live in UAE and we import a lot of goods from there
 
The ceasefire in Lebanon is a blow to Netanyahu and was only conceded after Iran's hardline on Lebanon. Given that development and given that the Americans/Israelis could have re-armed themselves regardless of a ceasefire or not, I think the Americans really want out. Pakistani journalist Hamid Mir, who is credible, said that the Americans 'begged' the Pakistanis to intervene to stop this war.

Pakistanis certainly have the best information available being not only present during the recent Islamabad Talks in the same room but also exchanging messages and probably leaning upon various parties to be flexible: The Lebanon ceasefire is an example of that and Iran's Ghalibaf has even thanked Pakistan over that.

I think a more durable peace is coming up but I am hoping for a Grand Peace.

Right. And it is a strategic gain for Iran at least in short or medium term. Even the Americans won't be able to invade, deploy troops, and hold onto the Strait minus a total defeat of Iran but that defeat would require either a massive, extremely costly invasion or the use of many nukes to engineer a 'regime change' in Iran.
The Strait is now Iran's for all practical purposes.

Please enlighten us based on the current development of events, Iran US performance so far, and most likely outcome based on the capabilities demonstrated and not revealed so far.

Thus far, both sides are claiming great successes, and both sides are only partly correct, IMO based on the capabilities demonstrated. What capabilities have not been revealed thus far are impossible for me to opine on, but we can wait and see.

The negotiations that are ongoing are the important thing to follow for right now, since they will determine the final outcome.
