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

[Haz]

I don't claim to be a strategic expert but here's my limited take on this ! Kharg island is a distraction , it serves no immediate strategic purpose ....area around Hormuz is relatively flat and there are no natural defences , it's also thinly populated ... once captured it's easy to defend , Iran doesn't have the capacity to launch a counter offensive...any Iranian ground movement will be immediately detected and will be taken care of through air bombardment.... north west Iran is heavily fortified , psyops aside , there doesn't seem to be an actual plan to invade that region....you fear escalation of the adversary have the capacity to raise the bar ...Iran doesn't seem to have one .

Edit: I misread your post. Ya I think you are right, that Island is a distraction, they will need to hold the area on the mainland to open up the strait, but I think that could also be dangerous for them. Iran has plenty of SRBM and drones that can hit those occupying troops from a far, so it will definitely cause casualties regardless, even if the IRGC/army itself can't approach and engage US soldiers directly..

Although long term war is not in favour of Pakistan, I hope Iran can extend this war to several months, if not years. If they have 2000 missiles in stock, it is better to fire 50 missiles per week than to run out in a month.

They are firing 30-40 missiles a day. But also 75-100 drones.

If they can even manufacture 20 missiles a month across all of Iran in secret locations (down from the 100+ a month Rubio claimed to the press) then they can extend this conflict for over a year.

Afghanistan already hold that title.

I dunno..this is like France claiming they beat Germany because their resistance was still functional. Meanwhile Hitler was touring Paris, German troops roamed the country, and they installed the Vichy Government...which ran the country for years.

How do you define "win". Successfully searching under every rock for the resistance?

Seems like he is praying to Almighty Good that the missiles reach their target and hit Epstienian Targets in Tel Aviv

I see, so you think a limited ground presence on that one island along with air patrols will be enough to suppress Iran's ability to block the strait?

I'm no military expert either, but I'm not sure if that alone will do, I thought they'd have to take the South/Western coastal areas on the mainland as well at least before they can ensure safe passage through the strait. Maybe you're right, we'll see.

What island are you talking about ? I am talking about capturing part of the mainland...

Iranians are trying to take on the radars in UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan.

The interception rate of Iranian missiles is quite high.

And where are you going to land your forces General Mythbuster?

While true, they did manage to eventually kick them out and their puppet government and reinstall their own independent government. That a victory imo.
