IRGC-ASF launches missile strikes against anti-Iran terrorists in Pakistan, Iraq and Syria - Pakistan responds

[PakAl]

IRGC was not hit, that type of escalation would not make any sense. Pakistani airstrikes on claimed terrorists inside Iran would make sense and be proportionate to satisfy Pakistani desire for a token response to save face.

Honestly, it looks like IRGC created this entire drama unnecessarily. Harming relations with a large, and if not friendly then at least not openly an enemy, neighbour to destroy a few houses was a stupid decision.

I agree with this statement, believe me Pakistan army would not be happy attacking Iran, Pakistan has always tried to make good relations with all Muslim countries in the name of ummah.

 

[PakAl]

I did not think there would be a response. If this news is confirmed, I was wrong.

I have no anger for Pakistan and you will not see me or other Iranians calling for nuclear war with Pakistan (to the contrary, we see most Iranians here are supportive of these potential Pakistani strikes). I blame the IRGC entirely and hope they thought this through with a plan.

Brother the correct way should be for both Pakistan and Iran to not violate each other territory, we have so many problems in the Muslim world. The west is eating popcorn whilst watching Pakistan and Iran situation.

Pakistan by their inaction at dealing with their terrorist problem. Well they do, because the more Iranians they kill the more weapons and dunya the Yanks give your politicians. They are always Balochi seperatist groups, who did you think they'd be? They are active everywhere in Balochistan on both sides. And Pakistan get their orders from the terrorist Yank embassy in Islamabad. Two can play at this game.

Stop talking dribble. No one has a right to come into another nations sovereign land and attack. There are channels of liaison and negotiation. You can’t attack and kill children and state it was pakistans fault. You threw a stone and got a rock back In your face.
I am saddened at the loss of life but remember Iran threw the first punch - let’s pray for immediate de escalation and negations start.

Youre asking me like im Hajizadeh. And you're drinking Pakistani Kool-Aid. If there are no concrete steps by both sides to stop the terrorists, and I mean concrete steps, then Iran reserves the right to continue taking out targets wherever it deems as long as Pakistan military is not targeted and is forewarned.

Then Pakistan will do the same. Hit anti Pak elements residing in Iran with impunity.

Next time, we may have air assets already deployed in the region on alert.

Yes, this one is 100x worse. At least Israel had the decency to maintain plausible deniability

Could you please elaborate on the Fakhrizadeh attack? You were discussing it and I'd appreciate if you could help us understand the context. Thanks

You make it sound like Iran cares! As long as your hands dont touch the state then it may actually be of benefit. I do think Pakistan and Iran should actually cooperate here but I don't think it will happen for the reasons I have already given.

Iran is under attack from all sides and many nations are just sitting and watching

Iran set up Hezbollah, Hamas and Houthis and also other groups in Iraq and Syria

Iran is also supplying Russia

its becoming tough and Iran has just lashed out in frustration

Iran is on its own and everyone else is just watching

everyone needs to calm down

I have a lot of respect for Iran for standing up like this, and the world and Muslim world needs Iran

Iran has done more for Palestine then the pathetic GCC and even the rest of the Muslim world

Iran deserves respect and Pakistan and Iran need to work together against common enemies


It's just that without utilizing the proper channels hitting a target in Pakistan means, Pakistans DETERRENCE is effected and we simply can't allow that because other enemies will see that as a sign that we are open to being hit

A response was essential,

Let's hope it does not escalate and both nations have learnt something and we can work together to slaughter the terrorists that target both of us and work together against a common enemy like the hindus

Well it has to be a military solution. But the lobbing of missiles was as a result of inaction in cooperation and coordination for a whole host of reasons for years and years and years. Dont think we've forgotten 2009 pishin bombings as one of many examples of this.

There could have been many other non-miltary steps taken before such an action would have been understandable. For instance, recalling ambassador whilst openly stating the reason as being lack of cooperation etc.

 

[tsunset]

I think the case is closed, the discussion is going into all sorts of offtopic paths and provocations

Iran struck baloch inside Pakistan
Pakistan did the same

So now unless something else happens i do not see the utility of this thread at least in this section

 

[Awwad]

IIRGC needs to self inspect themselves and their decision making ability. Maybe they were trying to make an illusion of being a regional power and demonstrating it. It was understandable when they hit Syria or Iraq. But against Pakistan?? You really don't want to strike a nation which can dominate air space and create air superiority over your national airspace at will.

Secondly, I don't understand why IIRGC is hell bent on creating the entire world as their enemy. Pakistan always tried to keep balance between Arabs & Iran. Pakistan pushed back against sending troops to Yemen in Saudi led coalition but this all changed with unilateral and unprovoked action of IIRGC. Everything is changed. Iranian govt is on self destruct mission. What they really achieved by doing missile strike against Pakistan? Absolutely NOTHING! It actually will backfire as this attack has given excuse to Pakistan military regime to cooperate with Gulf and americans more openly & freely as diplomatic relations with Iran are suspended now.

 

[Musings]

Let’s hope this ends here. I don’t see any difference in blood spilling in Iran or Pakistan. Hurts both ways

A simple question (based on your line of reasoning & hoping that you'll practice consistency in your line of argumentation)

- USA/middle east states that Iran supports and props up/weaponizes what it deems as terrorist entities inside the middle east.

- Does the USA or the Mid East reserve full right to strike Iran?

 

[Areesh]

What do you mean theh aren't citizens ? People living in the Iranian side of Baluchistan are not Iranian citizens ?

Iran has officially confirmed that non Iranian "civilians" were killed in Pakistani attack

Now the question is what these "non Iranian civilians" were doing in Iran
