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

[Aad80]

The British RAF Akrotiri base on Cyprus has been hit at least two times by Iran today.

Nathenya****u's home was targeted early morning, rumor going wild now over social media


alive or not, no ones knows!

I don't think that's not a friendly fire. A fire friendly fire can't happen to multiple jets unless they are in close proximity to each other. Either that's Russian air defence help to Iran or a Chinese hand. Remember the communication manipulation tactics Chinese used during operation sindoor that made brahmos missiles to strike down targets in India. It's looks something similar.

@Blain2 is not necessarily wrong.
I give it 50/50 between Friendly Fire and Sabotage.

If strait of Hormuz doesnt

Iran has capped the Hormuz Strait (which is expected), which means either Trump and Netanyahu back down, or they are looking at the pointy end of a combined Air/Naval operation around Southern Iran, and that would be risking significant US assets, resources, and personnel.

Oil Price already spiked 10-15% last time I checked, they can't (at least Trump can't ) have the oil price spike up again because that would affect many domestic economies (read how the US economy was affected by the Russian/Ukrainian war)

Which means the next step for them is either go big or go home.

If the war continues and Strait of Hormuz remain shut then one option might be to embark on a limited ground invasion to occupy Hormozgan and Iranian Baluchistan and install a puppet regime. The worst case scenario for Pakistan!

Second attack launched on RAF base in Cyprus​

Iran should strike Israeli offshore petroleum platforms close to Cyprus. The aim should be to hurt Israel's economic interests severely.

No idea.........

I don't think you can shoot down 3 of your own in one setting, and I am just saying there are a lot of things you have to do wrong in order to have this result.......

It's almost believing that they are actually retaliating against the strike would appear more competent than genuinely shooting them down by mistake.....

I mean, you need to understand, this is not a "oopsie, I pressed a button by mistake" type of thing.

I wouldn't discount the logical possibility(maybe small) of this being an ambush by an Iranian mobile IADS platform either. The distances are within range. This is the same as when the Patriots shot down 3 Su30(derivatives) during the start of the Ukraine war when they got the Patriots for the first time.

I think he is 50" chest beyond 38/42" you just look like a fridge if you wear overcoats.

Tell me about it....

 

[Aad80]

All gloves should come off now for Iran. The moment Iran started to annihilate whole building blocks in Tel Aviv and Haifa last summer, Israel immediately begged the US and Oman for a ceasefire. Iran should start doing this again immediately. Israel is now mainly bombing civilian infrastructure inside Teheran. This has to stop.

A certain user was making a point about Tehran turning into Gaza and was laughed at.

The audacity of this retard.

What a poetic nonsense

We didn't start this war, Iranians hijacked our Carrier fleets and transported them to Gulf at gunpoint.

Then they told our people to vacate their military bases in the gulf coz they were gonna start a war on themselves.

Then they fire tomahawks on themselves and started the war

We were innocent in this all, We did not start the War

We did not start the war
We did not start the war

Back from slumber.

Impressed with Iran’s response. They have taken this on the next level and within full rights to do so.

In addition, the IRGC are doing a marvelous job operating in a decentralized manner rather than top heavy and having to deal with red tapes and wrong numbers within their ranks.

Keep the momentum up and inflict more pain on the Zions and better yet take out their leadership to teach them a lesson.

The problem here is that it seems to be Iran against everyone else, or just about. Valiantly as they are fighting, the outcome against such odds is not in Iran's favor.

With the rise of energy prices, this will cause inflation to go up further, which could lead to more interest rate rises to try and temper inflation growth ..
