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

[Pakistani Dragon]

Pakistan is now the lead mediator between the U.S. and Iran.

The Army chief called Trump. The PM called Iran's president.

The country holding the world's most important phone right now has a $108 oil problem and 220 million reasons to want this war over.

wow! How did we end up here ?

220 million was a decade ago, it's now 258 million.

If you have 60% enriched why the need for a detonator? Just make a dirty bomb. A single bomb. Wouldn't that be enough to cause someone to pause for a minute?

That’s not how game theory works in the doctrine of MAD. First you need to show you can create the runaway fission reaction via the exploding bridge, dirty bomb doesn’t do that. Then the U.S. will want to see how much yield your first one gets to understand how advanced your simulations were and knowledge.

Then you need to do a second detonation within a week or two to show the enemy you didn’t just build one bomb and got lucky with a fluke test. You need to make them doubt how many you built.

Iran has enough uranium (total) for 25+ nuclear weapons. The minimum amount they need to build is 3: 2 for testing and one for back up.

What are Israel’s interceptors even doing these days

I think this is also the operators now working in prolonged hours as much as it has to do with shortage of interceptors I said this before the man will break long before the machine will break

China should not pressure Iran to these false American negotiations.

Well I don’t think they actually meant they hit that particular missile but I’m with you I like proof and the Iranians have shown proof in the past of destroying those missiles be it in small numbers or not they have shown photographic proof

Go read the original post. Or should I say repost of a Twitter post.

️- According to bloomberg, Iran is reportedly charging commercial ships an informal toll to pass through the strait of Hormuz.

A reported figure of upto $2 million per voyage are being requested on a case-by-case basis, with some vessels agreeing to pay.

India is unhappy with the move, citing international laws guaranteeing free navigation.

Chalking this up to be fake. Why?

Because that photo is right out of Wikipedia. Had Iran shot one or two down, let's see the actual wreckage and not the photo of a test flight over the US.

Iran needed to dig in like 2 days back. An assault is coming. They should be booby trapping every inch of territory for these orcs.

NEW: IRGC warns of heavy missile and drone strikes on northern Israel, Gaza perimeter if attacks on civilians in Lebanon and Palestine continue

Statement No. 46 of Operation True Promise 4, issued by the IRGC Public Relations:

“The child-killing army of the Zionist regime, exploiting the regional wartime environment and the media’s focus on the war imposed by the United States and the regime against the Islamic Republic of Iran, has carried out widespread war crimes against civilians in Lebanon and Palestine, crossing all red lines in what amounts to genocide. The continuation of this process is intolerable.”

“We warn the criminal army of the regime that if crimes against civilians in Lebanon and Palestine continue, gathering points of enemy forces in northern occupied Palestine and the Gaza perimeter will be targeted without hesitation by heavy missile and drone strikes by the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.”

Well I’m not big on twitter or social media I’m just reading the post that he posted and it doesn’t say anything regarding that picture has anything to do with it but I’m agreement I like proof over statements I’m like the Saudis are saying they have like a 10000”percent interception rate after they put a media blackout not believing them

This is allegedly the photos of the one today:



I also saw pictures of an (relatively) intact one earlier in the war that may have failed/jammed. Too lazy to look up picture.

Statistically speaking if US is firing 40+ a day then some will fail en route (tomahawk failure rates as high as 20+%) and some lucky shots via IR/EO based systems will happen.

You killed 168 schoolgirls aged 7-12 on the first day of war (and you hit it twice with Tomahawk missiles) and have hit another school since then. What attempt has been done to limit collateral damage?
You regularly hit residential areas of Tehran with apartments and residential towers next to your target. Give us a break.

Russians have done much less evil than you in their 4 years of war against Ukraine, compared to your 25 days of war.

Mistakes happen in war . The school getting hit was a DISASTER over here in the states. The Dems/Progs have been ALL OVER TRUMPS ASS. I can promise you some heads rolled over that. Israel on the other hand takes pride in wicked, chicken shit attacks like that.

A better question for you is why are all the Iranian citizens cheering in the streets when the bombs come reigning down ?

My guesstimate is if negotiations fails, USA would launch ground invasion. Troops build up is a pressure tactic so Iran negotiates a deal with USA before 5 day ceasefire ends. If Iran doesn't budge, it should ready for US ingress to Kharg and Chahbahar port. It is at this point, the baloch rebels would come into play and engage IRGC from within to distract them and make USA ingress easy.
