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

[TheThirdFaculty]

How many Israelis and American soldiers have been kia’d hardly any compared that to Iran’s losses how can anyone say irans winning

If you think that operation was to rescue 2 American pilots, then I have a bridge to sell to you.

You missed the point. Iran has been infiltrated badly here and it's proven when there are aircrafts found deep within Iran. But stuffs happen and I can accept that, but some of their response have been found wanting. You can keep the bridge to yourself.

Although it’s a common sentiment among most forumers here, that Iran hasn’t intensified its offensive operations as much as most here would like to see but in real military terms, Iran has done really well at operational & strategic levels of the war. Iran’s war management has been far superior compared to its adversary. Iran must fight the war in its own way & must not at any cost be dragged in to a war that suits America.

No one here is denying Iran fought well. But they have also been found wanting at times. Which is why I question if they have such plans in place. My heart is in the right place and I want the best for them.

Any conflict with a superpower can not be a short term. Even if it is, Iran must display the confidence to fight a long drawn out conflict.

Logistics is the name of the game & it’s on Irans side as long as Iran fights the war that it knows & has prepared for.

We all know that. But Iran also needs to find a way to deter US eventually from carrying out airstrikes at will.

China sold weapons to the same RSF that shot populations of entire villages in the head and threw their bodies in water wells? Abhorrent behavior by "People's Liberation Army." Did not expect them to sink THAT low.

It's more that they sold it to UAE who gave it to genocidal militias. But they sell it knowing what the UAE plans to do with it.

Escalation must be coming for these precautions to be taken by major airlines.

Wait until they ban all flights to Israel that’s when real escalation will start

Iran is wise to keep China at arm's length. This is absolutely disgusting.

Waiting for the pro China characters to defend this act. "It's all about money" is vomit inducing.

A similar question was posed in one of my favorite shows "Yes Minister". The answer was "well either you are in the arms business or your'e not".

Russia sells to these guys china sells to them I think someone said decades ago they had the opportunity to buy Chinese military weapons but took a hard pass and went to the Russians who after the 90s was extremely inconsistent

China should be kept out of west Asia. Iran has been wise not to cozy up too much to China.

Unfortunately, they seem to be focused on business and money first.

Like some wealthy Arab countries, they appear complacent and pay too little attention to places like the Philippines, Taiwan, Japan, and others circling around their places and now Middle East crisis. Too late.

Similarly both Arab countries and China are making a lot of money but no war experiences at all.

Chinese Coast Guard was doing a lot of fighting today!
