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

[Abdul q]

I mentioned this before the war started, if Iran claims to be strategic partner of Russia then they must request Russia to build a military base in Iran, even allow them to station some nukes, to make sure no direct attack is taken place against Iran but Iranians were claiming they are too powerful and independent, and noone would dare to attack Iran. Look at North Korea and Japan, despite having powerful militaries they have Usa bases to protect them. Today Iran is cornered and their military is being slowly dismantled, how can we gurantee Usa/Israel are not making nuclear threats behind the scenes, who can stop them? Russia as alleged was Iranian biggest ally, even Bashar Al Assad Syria requested Russian help to fight against the terrorists, Nato was prevented from imposing no fly zone due to risk of clash with Russia, in Libya Nato imposed no fly zone and destroyed Gaddafi army.

Noo way… wherever Russians go the country gets destroyed.. they’re worst possible ally

As of July 24 – 25, 2026, the most significant diplomatic impact has been felt by U.S. missions across the region and the British Embassy in Tehran.

U.S. Embassies and Consulates:

Multiple U.S. diplomatic posts remain on “ordered departure” status. Non-emergency American personnel and their families were relocated earlier in the conflict from embassies and consulates in:
Bahrain
Iraq
Jordan
Kuwait
Lebanon
Qatar
Saudi Arabia
United Arab Emirates

In the UAE specifically, the U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi and the Consulate General in Dubai confirmed on July 24 that they continue to operate under ordered departure. Only a limited number of staff remain to handle emergency consular services for American citizens. Routine visa services stay suspended. The embassies themselves have not been closed - they are running on skeleton staffing.

Similar reduced-staffing arrangements apply at the other posts listed above. The State Department has stated that the missions remain operational for core and emergency functions, with the goal of returning personnel when security conditions allow. No firm timeline has been given.

British Embassy in Tehran:

On July 22 – 23, the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office temporarily withdrew its remaining diplomatic staff from Iran “due to the ongoing security situation.” The embassy continues to operate only remotely. In-person consular assistance is no longer available - even in emergencies. British nationals in Iran have been told that government support is now extremely limited.

Other Missions:

Claims circulated that France had evacuated its embassy in Tehran. French officials, including the Foreign Ministry spokesperson and the embassy’s official account, publicly denied any such closure or evacuation. The French Embassy remains open and fully functioning.

In short, the dominant pattern across the affected posts is not a wholesale closure of embassies, but the withdrawal of non-essential staff and families, leaving skeleton crews (or remote operations) to maintain essential services. Physical compounds in most cases are still open, though access and services are heavily restricted.

We have not heard of Reza Pahlavi for a while

He is probably keeping low profile as he could be included to be deported to Iran in a future deal

Iran biggest issue (wether a mistake or due to lack of power) is they failed to create a minimum deterrence. Iran needs to create some kind of situation where noone dares to attack them ever but the failure is their territory keeps on getting bombed and they cannot do much about it. Today people are accepting this as a reality, that anyone can bomb Iran and get away with it. Iran defense policy needs upgrade, noone must be allowed to attack Iran without immediate severe consequences.

What else can they have done with the sanctions? They’ve fought as well as anyone could given their situation. Too many arm-chair generals here giving their stupid advice when not one of us is in the situation room with Trump or the IRGC. We can only go off by what we are watching unfold in real time.

I listen to Pape, McGregor, Parsi, Mershaimer, and that other Jewish professor from the U.S. and they seem to be right on the ball. Meanwhile ppl here expect a blitzkrieg as if Iran has options to perform a wide scale offensive operations with troops landing on the shores of the GCC.

Ukraine has no right to exist

After Iran threatened the UK, it was Ukraine that, under orders from the UK (and maybe nato), carried out the dirty work against Russia & Iran


Iran is now openly threatening the Europe. I hope this ultimately leads to nuclear ICBMs aimed at European capitals

 

[Shags101]

These intelligence leaks and how fast they are coming out is suspicious to be fair do you honestly think Trump cares end of the day if hundreds or even thousands American troops die at this point it’s a loss and I’m very suspicious about the whole Iran has moved thousands of centrifuges to pick axe mountain assuming that after a year these machine would have been reinstalled and reactivated I highly doubt this is over

 

[Shags101]

One of arab slave might have done it

If the one of these countries did do it Iran would’ve responded in kind but could have been just unexploded ordnance that exploded or something random

 

[kobra]

Still IR is reluctant to carry out massive missile salvos on US tankers and bombers stationed in ISrail.. You hit the enemy where its weak, their weakness is low stockpiles... In 3-5 months time they will be armed to teeth with interceptors and basically iran has to do everything from 0, again targeting bases in 6 countries while US and ISrail will bomb them without any fear..

Strange strategy or fear dont know

You just dispensed my thought. Iran already achieved what others only dream about it. I don’t care if Iran lose from here because they are already winner and history will remember them as nation of noble warriors.

US military says 16 commercial vessels ‘trying to run blockade’ of Iran stopped​

“The US naval blockade against Iran remains in full effect,” US Central Command says in a statement on X.

“As of July 25, CENTCOM has redirected 12 commercial vessels trying to run the blockade, disabled 2 that didn’t comply, and boarded 2 to ensure total compliance,” it continued.

War isn’t over at all if they are keeping up their blockade of Iranian ships or countries trying to go back and forth to Iran I’m telling you I live the new thing they are saying disabled it’s nice way to say they attacked it with missiles or naval guns

3 great reviews:

 

[RocketLaw]

BREAKING: A source close to Iran's chief negotiator says Tehran has rejected three U.S. backed ceasefire proposals this week, delivered through Qatar, Iraq, and Pakistan — which reportedly angered Donald Trump and pushed him to announce a massive strike on Iran, according to Iranian outlets.

The source suggests Iran is waiting for U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve levels to drop critically low, expected by mid-August, and for oil to hit around $120 a barrel before considering any deal and and eventually, Donald Trump would have to accept Iran's terms, meaning TACO.

The U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) has fallen to approximately 311.4 million barrels, its lowest level since March 1983, according to the latest EIA data. Analysts warn that if disruptions hit both the Bab el-Mandeb and the Strait of Hormuz at the same time, oil could climb to around $124 a barrel in August.

Or Israel is already the superpower, they control the Usa, it's doesnt have to be direct control, indirect control is the modern way.

you are correct. but now they want absolute control and power over everything. thats the dajjal system our beloved prophet MUHAMMAD peace be upon him warned us about. the false messiah, the antichrist.

Biggest beneficiaries of phase-2 of US-Iran war

In phase-2, so far biggest beneficiary is Israel. Because Israel was the mastermind behind this war and now its seeing its biggest enemy Iran being bombed without firing a shot or receiving any missile threat. Its perhaps the greatest time of joy for Israel. As we know Israel is existential enemy of Iran and they are seeing the job getting done by someone else for them.

In the Persian gulf and GCC the biggest beneficiary is UAE. They are making ton load of money. In June they sold the record most oil in their history. July will break that record again. Because Now UAE is selling all of the oil by passing SOH using pipelines and through Fujairah port. While Iranian ports are blockaded and other GCC countries are facing difficulties the demand of UAE oil is super high. With international oil prices going up its amazing money making time for UAE too.
