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

[Persian Gulf]

The latest American war crime in Iran.

I think Iran had to narrow down its targets. As, Iran do not have unlimited stock of missiles. It could be 10-20% remaining of pre-war status.

Also after 100 days of surviving and fighting back, there's lot of Iran's military hardware is already used in the war, many destroyed too by the US. So the powerful countries in GCC like KSA and UAE have more incentive to join the war now when Iran is weakened. So Iran is this time around little careful. Qatar on other hand is using diplomacy with Iran and not choosing hostility at all.

U.S. intelligence says 70% of pre war stockpile, not 10-20%.

I think things have calmed down and are not as bad as being portrayed, if one looks at Flightradar, Iranian airspace is quite busy, they are not panicking at all

The U.S. strikes were quite underwhelming relative to the severity of Hegseth and Trump’s threats

49 cruise missiles does not achieve as much as you think

One word: Lebanon.
The Strait, the fissile material issues could be under the Iranian decision making some years later--they can even renege on any agreement later just like Trump violated the JCPOA. But the bone of contention was and remains Lebanon. During the April talks in Islamabad, most issues were broadly agreed upon except for Lebanon. This was stated by Pakistan's credible analysts like Hamid Mir shortly after the Talks. And that has not changed.
The Israelis want a chunk of the Lebanese territory.

Iran needs to be clear on both a ceasefire, and a full withdrawal from Lebanon in their language. So far, I have only seen the ceasefire word.

It could be an indication that both sides are merely trying to jockey for the better negotiating position still, as best as possible. One still hopes some sort of arrangement can be reached relatively quickly to avoid all-out war, even at this stage.

So this was all of the US strikes?

When i listen to the tone of Trump the Eunuch and Hegseth yesterday threatening Iran, i really thought they were going to restart the war at full scale and airdrop troops to seize Iranian lands with severe bombing including the assassination of Ghalibaf and Araghchi

Round 3 starts tonight:

 

[Persian Gulf]

no need to ask if IRGC will pre empt the strikes, we already know the answer to that

Hitting bases in Jordan was a good move.

A few hits on radar sites in Iraq and Jordan would deny early warning to the Israel Iron Dome. That should increase the probability of hits if Iranian missiles were to strike Israel.
