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

[mulj]

Sorry but speaking as someone from a security background - the damage is already done. Look at the complexity of their operations. These people were well funded, deeply embeded and were likely working inside the country for decades.

Money is usually the answer, they probably lived like kings while it lasted, well now they will talk and answer.

Based on news reports from Russia , Russia has already warned any other nation's involvement in Iran war

True, If the IR falls, and a new regime takes over these cells won’t just disappear, it's an investment by Israel/US, they'll be embedded inside Iran and operate for years.

IF Russia miss this opportunity then Russia will proved to be really dumb.

Trump says he talked to Putin yesterday and adds that Putin offered to mediate the Iran-Israel conflict, and Trump responded that Putin should mediate Russia first(Ukraine-Russia)

There are posts on X that israel has bombed Ayatollah Khamenei's location. Can any of you verify?

That is the wailing wall, Orthodox jews consider this wall which is the last remaining wall of an ancient temple which was destroyed by the romans as sacred, jews pray at the wall, they cry and put special prayers and wishes on pieces of paper and push the paper into the wall with the hope their prayers will come true.

Ironic then that the second temple that formed the bases of the eventual retaining wall that has now become the retaining wall was built by Persian edict.

If talks in Oman are starting again than its a positive development. So far, Iranian military has done a good job without any air force. I feel Iran can take on Israel if no other country is involved. Iran has more appetite to take blows. Israel can't. Just imagine if Iraq and Syrian air space would had been closed for Israeli fighter planes. They would had no offensive punch to attack Iran where as Iran would had flattened Israeli cities with their missile power alone.

Saw that this morning, fake til confirmed, as everything with news during war. Propaganda going hard from both sides during this war. Same as in the Ukraine-russia war.

What continues to puzzle me is why Iran, despite facing repeated threats from Israel particularly regarding its nuclear facilities has refrained from developing a nuclear bomb. As far back as 2009, they were well aware that their national security was under constant threat, yet they chose not to cross that line.

In light of this war, I genuinely hope Iran takes a step back to reassess its strategic priorities. While diplomacy and resistance have their place, there must also be an evolution in military doctrine. One key lesson is clear: relying solely on air defense systems and ballistic missiles is not sufficient when facing a technologically advanced adversary like Israel.

Iran must begin to invest seriously in building a modern air force — not just for deterrence, but to project strength, safeguard sovereignty, and create a real balance of power in the region. Without air superiority or at least air parity, any future conflict will continue to expose critical vulnerabilities.

The USA electorate, largely, has accepted the right of Israel to exist as a Jewish state. The machinations of various Palestinian groups, such as Hamas, and their supporters, such as Iran, have refused to accept Israel in the sense that they will cease trying to destroy it. Until the USA electorate changes its mind about Israel's "right to exist" it will not be seen as a "rogue state" for its actions to protect itself. Even the terrible destruction and death in Gaza is not seen as "genocide" by the majority of Americans but rather as a terrible "cost of war". Americans cannot understand why the actions of Israel in Gaza are seen by some as "genocide" but the actions of Russia in the Ukraine are not, by the same people. The crux of the matter is whether or not Israel's right to exist can be accepted, even though it may be the unjust result of 20th century big power politics, which were largely European but also included the Ottomans.

What idiot American electorate believes or doesn't believe doesn't mean diddly squat

Israel is a monstrous state covered in blood enforcing apartheid, creating conflict and war and forcing starvation, death, slaughter and ethnic cleansing on a occupied population

The majority of the world is now of this belief


The U.S is displaying it's arrogance and evil, or at least the level of control the Jews have over America

Man it’s a wake up call for our MI/CID and ISI………everybody got a price bro……it’s very scary

price is not a new factor, it always existed and moles always existed but they never dared


I think, there is something more here... something new has occurred.

a new tech. and a new doctrine/motivation ... seems to the combination.

Because Iran was previously part of peace deal to stop enrichment to have normalized ties with Europe and USA

2018-2019 Donald Trump administration cancelled the treaty

But IAEA continued to monitor (Spy) on behalf of Israelis
Tracking details on enrichment % on day to day basic

Eventually the information the Spies captured was used to assassinate local Iranian Scientist


In Pakistan or North Korea , IAEA spies were not allowed access to Nuclear scientist

Yep ,true Russia has their own problems. But US & EU has kept Ukraine fighting all this long. Russia got perfect opportunity for payback. Plus Iran is supposedly an ally of Russia. Russia already lost Syria. Iran is a last fort that can have same FP regarding US & EU.

I suspect if war prolongs then weapon supplies can happen via caspian route, but let's see.

You honestly don't understand Putin's love affair with Israel.

Russia can’t afford to make an enemy of Israel, they're as comprised by the Mossad as Iran, if not more. They have countless of Israeli Russian citizens that operate inside Russia,. They're not a reliable ally at all.

Irans mistake was not allying with China, some Iranian politicians and citizens wanted to balance relations between the Western bloc and Eastern bloc, which has always been beyond idiotic.
