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

When I saw Piers Morgan no further time was invested in the video. Sorry.

No do I watch The View and similar shows.
At the 1:40 minute mark, Trumps very clear that if Iran can't have nukes then 'other countries' with token nuke capability 'can't have em either and wes goin have a similar discussion/ arrangement'.......lol

And he's openly saying it now........that totally implies he's goin go after North Korea and Pakistan/ India in particular.

Aaaaaahahahahahaaaaa........ :ROFLMAO:

But I thought he liked the little fat guy with the bad haircut?

Kinda getting off track now. Also don't see Israel giving up theirs.

Going to be a sad day for the world if we reach the point where "The Omega Glory" transitions from science fiction to reality.

They won’t bother with the Israelis cuz that’s the US’s own arsenal…..but these other itty bitty countries might get their turn rolled up on a barrel…….

Pants pulled down……

Theys all a buncha pushovers……you know it.
 
The US already had a THAAD battery in Saudi Arabia. We do not know if this battery was deployed to Israel or if it came from another theater, which could in reality be three THAAD batteries, which would increase the ABM defense of the region.

In addition, the US has already deployed the following Patriot components and other systems to the region:
Jordan: 2x M902/M903 Patriot PAC-3/PAC-3 MSE batteries
Kuwait: 2x M902/M903 Patriot PAC-3/PAC-3 MSE batteries
Qatar: 2x M902/M903 Patriot PAC-3/PAC-3 MSE batteries and 1x AN/TPY-2 X-band radar
United Arab Emirates: 2x M902/M903 Patriot PAC-3/PAC-3 MSE batteries
Saudi Arabia: 1x M902/M903 Patriot PAC-3/PAC-3 MSE battery

The deployment of a Patriot battalion from INDOPACOM to CENTCOM nearly doubles air defense capabilities in the region.
with these air defences we don't need MRBMs since they are much closer to Iran.

SRBMs and drones and cruise missiles can be used for these and Iran has these in much greater numbers than MRBMs (which itself Iran likely has in tens of thousands)
 
USA could not stop Ansarallah from firing missiles and drones at its ships virtually every day so I don't see much credibility in the idea they can stop Iran doing much more.

Yemen has only a few underground sites built under the old government and possibly upgraded with Iranian assistance, in a relatively small territory.

Iran has > 100 underground sites that are much deeper and better protected and spread across a huge, mountainous territory. and each one likely has 500-1000+ missiles.

it is simply not reality to think the US can stop Iranian missiles or prevent the destruction of every single US military base within 500km of Iranian borders.

US military officials have access to the best intelligence in the world and they are very capable. So they know this reality very well.
 
"According to the three diplomats, the E3 told Iran they would trigger the snapback mechanism by the end of June. Iran responded that doing so would mean harsh consequences and a review of its nuclear doctrine, the diplomats said."

Looks like May-June will be the pivotal inflection point for Iran, not October. Not much time left.

I think at this point, even the people who doubted Iran's missile forces know for a fact that we can attack and hurt the US military assets in the Middle East. That is no longer a question of possibility. But the real question now is, do the regime and military commanders in Iran have the cojones to do that?

They didn't show the willingness to kill American soldiers when we attacked Ain Al-Assad in retaliation for the assassination of our top commander. They even coordinated the attack with Iraqis/Americans before launching it. The same thing happened in TP1 and TP2. We also failed to respond to Israel's violation of our territory which killed 5 Iranian soldiers. So, the current question is all about how willingness to engage the US and Israel, particularly when one side is armed with nuclear weapons and we're not.

fair point but I think TP2 showed intent to cause real damage

you don't suddenly fire 180 ballistic missiles with no warning (it was detected by US a few hours in advance, but not much we can do about that) without acknowledging that the attack may cause serious damage and deaths, even if it is aimed at military targets

unfortunately the missiles did not perform as expected and showed weak accuracy, but IRI did not know that in advance

It's hard to know what they wanted to achieve by firing all those missiles at Israel. I agree with some members here that 180 ballistic missiles is probably a false number, and larger than the actual number.
They missed some obvious targets in Nevatim.
For example, satellite imagery "suggests" that they wanted to target F-35 shelters. But there aren't enough hits in that region to reach a decisive conclusion. Also, those hangars are reinforced concrete. So, what did they intend to achieve by that when they knew those fighters won't be there and the damage would appear to be minimal in satellite imagery?

Yet, they missed a very obvious and vulnerable target like the Control Tower which could've been a sensible choice, and a pretty nice target for propaganda in satellite imagery. Probably because the Control Tower was close to the shelter hosting the Wing of Zion, they considered that escalatory and decided not to target that proximity.

The problem with Iran's attacks is that when it's over, nothing makes sense. Look at the Israeli attack on Iran. Their choice of targets makes sense. But you can't claim the same thing about our military responses.

around 40% of the c. 40 missiles that impacted Nevatim were 'strays' and wildly off target. so it is hard to know what the target was.

3 missiles impacted near the F-35 shelters so clearly that was a target and they achieved at least 3 'accurate' (<50m CEP) hits there albeit this was still insufficiently accurate and insufficiently powerful to penetrate the concrete shelter

one theory is that a large number of missiles was also fired at Tel Aviv but these were intercepted, and Israel left Nevatim undefended to preserve interceptors for Tel Aviv. but we cannot know for sure.

the 180 number seems fairly accurate considering it has been corroborated by Israel and USA as well as IRGC generals too. a 30% failure rate (somewhat reasonable for MRBMs especially cheap Iranian ones) automatically removes 54/180. and we saw a total of c. 50-55 impacts from the remaining 126 missiles. so c. 60 interceptions seems plausible

but I agree it is very hard to tell what the targets were since so many missiles missed any plausible target by such large distances. OTOH, the direct hits that we did see cannot be a coincidence given the size of the air base.

But where are the boosters? 180 missiles (possibly over 250 missiles in both TP1 and TP2) and we haven't seen more than 10-15 boosters recovered after the attacks.
