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

[东风夜放花千树]

Listen, I been a major critic of this governments “strategic” deals with Russia and China. And put China on blast for waiting so long to send humanitarian aid to Iran.

But your entire missile program is still alive due to China. The chemical precursors for both liquid fuel and solid fuel? China. The components that make up these cheap missiles? China. The solid fuel mixers? Also China.

Without China, Iran’s missile program would be much more expensive and slow.

The reality on the ground post war has changed. I expect Russia and China to get closer to Iran because

A) Iran isn’t falling anytime soon — which was their fear for years

B) the reformists are severely weakened and Khamenai is gone — the new leadership is less gonna be “neither east nor west”

You are in the United States, and I cannot explain too much to you. China will not provide weapons to any warring countries. We have always maintained good credibility regarding what we have said and the agreements we have signed.

I understand how you feel, but please do not blame China. China has no responsibility for this war. To make it clearer, China and Iran have a cooperative relationship, and Iran and Russia have a military cooperation relationship.

According to the long-term cooperation framework agreement signed on March 27, 2021, we have maintained close cooperation with Iran.

I just don't get why Iran is unable to protect its own scientists and Government officials within its own borders?

Where is the Iranian intelligence service?

People want the OF life. They sell for literal dollars. In other news, OF cofounded is dead at 43.

Iran is doing same mistake as Nazi Germany i.e. fighting wrong enemy. Arabs are not enemy, Israel is. Don't attack Arabs, concentrate on Israel.
In my opinion Russia is providing information of Arabs so that the demand for Russian oil is increased. On the other hand again in my opinion Russia is providing a little skewed information of Israeli targets so that it can blackmail west.

Russians should never be trusted. They just wanted to be treated as white people by the western white people.

Attacks on GCC are not an attack on Arab countries and or people. The attacks are against Kaffir appointed tyrants who are a manifestation of neo colonialism and are part and parcel of the colonial experiment of the Zionists

FYI I managed this point many days ago to members of this very forum.

No friggin way!

But on a serious note, would be a good scalp for Pakistan on the diplomatic front, but care should we taken that we do not turn out like Oman.

I never understood these sheikdoms playing roles of "mediators". They are weak states with no hard power to be taken seriously. But yes indeed, if we manage to bring this to end from our soil, whole world will take sigh of relief.

 

[ShapurII]

Didn't say we should.

I'm saying Iran should reevaluate it's trade with UAE which, despite being a major trading partner with Iran, claims Iranian territory and participated in a war against Iran. Yes we should expand trade with the nations you listed instead.

I used lower case for gulf intentionally. The Persian Gulf is still a gulf.

We cannot stop trade with the UAE overnight. Our ports do not have the capacity to replace the Emirates. And we need to get the sanctions lifted first. They're doing our money laundering for us.

As I said, the problem is not the UAE itself. The problem is the US. Once we have dealt with the American threat, the UAE will be a good boi again.

Strategic Assessment: The objective of the 5-day timeframe announced by Trump is to bolster the air defenses of the Arab countries in the region and the Israeli regime, to deploy new U.S. forces to the area, to control financial markets, and to uncover connections of officials and lay the groundwork for assassinations. There is no prospect for negotiations

Slim chance of this happening but not beyond the realm of impossibility.

What’s to stop Iran from launching missiles to GCC and Israel’s powerplants and related infrastructure in retaliation.

And, importantly there are higher chances of Iranians inflicting casualties to the Americans.

China will not provide weapons to any warring countries.

China sold weapons to both Iran and Iraq during that war so that is not true.

bro thats so close to pakistan, they might accidentally land in pakistan and run into our border patrols.

I hope Iran is updating their targeting banks as we speak. I pray for 1000 missiles on Israel when I go to sleep today.

 

[Ali_Baba]

Food for thought for the Iranian Government that they neglected their AD, IADS and Airforce soo much that they needed permission from Israel to fly within their own airspace !!!

 

[Master Chief]

That is why They went after Venezuela and Iran was to cut off China from their main energy suppliers to weaken china.

Agree with this in terms of USA's economic rationale for this war. There is also a pro-Tel Aviv (eschatological) rationale, which is unrelated to the economics.

If the regime emerges undefeated, then China also wins, as China retains leverage over much of its oil source (you're right that Venezuela is lost though) AND remains in a strong position regarding semiconductors and rare earths. This leaves the road to Taipei open for China. USA's empire will start to decline in earnest if this all transpires. There are more benefits to Tehran standing firm for the entire continent of Asia, but I shan't digress.

There is NO 5-DAY TRUCE, Iran continues to attack daily. It's just more media fake news, just like the "Russia-Ukraine" truce – media fabrications to make it seem like Russia was backing down. Trump is desperate and is creating fake news and victory narratives like never before.

And when anyone suggests Iran needs a serious airforce, we get ridiculed.
