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

[Dalit]

It is not. Iran needs to launch in waves. Actually firing heavy amounts at once can make it easier for them to be on alert and engaged at once. They will be exhausted progressively. Their air defense systems and air force.

Israeli's are terrified of any lethal weapons coming their that aren't homemade rockets or simple artillery rockets like those of Hezbollah and Hamas.

Israel is very tiny. That is in Iran's favor. Iran can seriously pound it if it continues to exhaust the Israeli AD systems etc. For that you need a huge stockpile of decoy drones and missiles. Iran's litmus test has begun.

How many casualties so far? Any estimates?

 

[mangekyo]

What can we do when the European, Americans and even the Ummah is so eager to defend Israel

NYT is saying that?
I have been saying it for months.
Maybe NYT writers read PDF, LOL.

Well, here it is:

Trump’s Vision: One World, Three Powers?​

President Trump’s recent actions and statements suggest he might want an arrangement where the United States, China and Russia each dominate their sphere of influence.

For President Trump, anytime is a good time for deal-making, but never more so than now with the leaders of China and Russia.

Last week, Mr. Trump said he wanted to normalize commerce with Russia, appearing to lessen the pressure on Moscow to settle its war with Ukraine. And he is trying to limit the fallout from his own global trade war by urging China’s leader to call him.

“We all want to make deals,” Mr. Trump said in a recent interview with Time magazine. “But I am this giant store. It’s a giant, beautiful store, and everybody wants to go shopping there.”

Mr. Trump may have something even bigger in mind involving Russia and China, and it would be the ultimate deal.

His actions and statements suggest he might be envisioning a world in which each of the three so-called great powers — the United States, China and Russia — dominates its part of the globe, some foreign policy analysts say.

It would be a throwback to a 19th-century style of imperial rule.

any HVTs who survived must be moved to secure locations before subsequent waves to prevent even more damage

 

[ShapurII]

that was just the first wave ... but now there are two parties not just Israel

Their hits on our nuclear infrastructure seems far from impressive and effective enough to destroy our enrichment capacity. Maybe there will be more to come in the coming hours or days, who knows?

 

[Immortals]

What do you guys think, does Islam allow nuclear weapons?

If it doesn’t then how does Pakistan have nuclear weapons? Why is Turkey and Saudi Arabia building their own nuclear programs?

 

[Dalit]

NATO has nukes as well so Nukes won't be used

Don't be so sure about that now.

 

[Unknowntruth]

We will see what "Axis of Resistance" is worth now.
If they do nothing this time, Iran should throw them under the bus.

The lack of controlling the escalation ladder is why Iran is in this mess. Axis of resistance should have went full force from the beginning but the resistance in Gaza were the only ones willing to go full force.

Where? For how long? Israel can kill these HVTs anytime it wants after this latest tit for tat is over. Iran cannot keep all or scientists locked up in a bunker forever. These are human beings not cattle.

You said HUMINT. Satellite data is not HUMINT.
Israel found our nuclear scientists through IAEA reports. And most of the people they assassinated taught at public universities.

This thing is on a whole different level. I'm talking about the initial tweet you discussed.

Why were Israeli citizens and tourists around the world running around with not a single worry in the world? If Iran was serious about retaliating against Israel for taking out it's scientists over the years, it should have made the lives of Israelis in any part of the world a living hell.

HVTs live in bunkers during wartime, it's normal.

just a few months until we build nuclear weapons.

When a country spends billions on proxies instead of building its own air force, this outcome was inevitable.
