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

They abstained and did not use their veto vote in Bahrain led resolution.

Pakistan voted in favor of Russian led resolution.

How did you get the impression Pakistan voted for anything against Iran?
Pakistan was among the co-sponsors and voted in favour, noting that it is “not immune from these attacks” and stating that it supports the resolution.

The Bahrain-led resolution was adopted with 13 votes in favour; China and Russia abstained.

Its text “condemns in the strongest terms the egregious attacks” carried out by Iran against Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Jordan, emphasising that “such acts constitute a breach of international law and a serious threat to international peace and security”.

It demands the immediate cessation of all attacks by Iran against these countries and underscores the right of individual and collective self-defence as recognised under Article 51 of the UN Charter.

The resolution criticises the “deliberate targeting” of civilians, critical infrastructure, and commercial vessels, including in and around the Strait of Hormuz, highlighting the attacks’ adverse impact on maritime security, international trade, energy supply, and the global economy.

Iran is primarily hitting GCC + Iraq now

Hezbollah is firing at Israel. I didn't see any Iranian missiles last 6 hours they keep getting confused for Hezbollah short range ballistic missiles

Plenty of people above explained why Pakistan agreed. It is not a matter to concern Iran. There is no teeth in the Resolution. Some bored diplomats sat for a potential Ceasefire Resolution and ended up with this Resolution where Iran's most independently aligned backers like China and Russia decided to let it through.
Please pay attention to the impact, the contraints of countries, and the actual language of the Resolution.
If and when the Iranian govt decides to attack Pakistan harshly then we could talk.
 
Trump
He tells reporters “the straits are in great shape,” apparently referring to the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has largely shut down to global oil transport in retaliation for US and Israeli strikes.
Yeah I agree the waters and islands look really nice with no ships polluting them
Yes. The Straits of Hormuz are indeed in great shape - a perfect shape for blockading in fact.
 
One possibility is that Trump resorts to carpet bombing with B-1/B-2 bombers akin to the "Linebacker" operations during the Vietnam war to get Iranians to accept defeat. But the way things are looking, Iranians are past the point of surrender. They just have to hold on to their wits and outlast the Israeli/US aggression. That will be a strategic win for Iran.
They were using B1 like a missile truck, and B-2 for the big thing because a lot of Iranian missiles are hidden in prepared positions, you need to use B-2 or B-52 to drop bunker buster on them to destroy them, which also explained the rise in use of Thermobaric Weapon, because that is almost exclusively used to explode caves.
