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

[LeonBlack08]

Further confirmation that IRGC is in complete control of the strait. Ships are passing only after they contact IRGC, make payment and then turn off their transponder to pass through the strait.

Iran is now acting like Iraq during the First Gulf War. Iraq had a powerful military at that time, but its overconfidence led to its downfall. After the First Gulf War, Iraq never recovered and became a shadow of its former self, even though it sits on huge oil reserves.

If everything is destroyed, Iran will take ages to recover if it ever recover, while it cannot inflict comparable damage on Israel, the US, or the Gulf countries. In contrast, those countries would recover very quickly compared to Iran.

Iran has proved its point. Now its time to cool things otherwise this rhetoric will not take Iran anywhere.

Brother, trust me. It is not about overconfidence. I have already explained all the pros and cons of a ceasefire and Iran gains NOTHING from a ceasefire. You can read it all here:

So can Iran my Firend -> peace works both ways... it also gives time for cooler heads to prevail

IMO -> Islamic Rules of war teach us -> Treaty for peace > fight war now.



Iran can deploy equipment to dig out tunnel entrances -> move equipment between logistic hubs, ingest any industrial production of launchers in to safe storage.

Journalists can campaign for war crimes and damage... and recap of war lessons

ALOT can happen in 45 days

You are engaging me in a conversation that is already over in my opinion.

I will repeat it for the last time, hoping that people will no longer...

The Persian Gulf states will cease to exist as we know them. If you think Iran cannot inflict comparable damage to them, you haven't been paying attention.

See Side-winder's post above. This is the point that I have been making for over a week. Pakistan brokering peace is because Pakistan does not want to get roped into the war and pick sides.

Thus, spectating isn't much of an option for Pakistan given the current trajectory.

Pakistan isn’t a one trick pony & there are multiple ways of skinning a cat.

Mr Shehbaz is doing his job. We don’t want Saudi oil fields attacked & we know it’s Israel that’s sabotaging our efforts. We have a presence in Saudi, we can increase our presence even more. We must adopt an aggressive posture towards Israel & use our assets to surveil & snoop on Israel & provide Iran with the updates in return for no attacks on Saudi oil fields.

Prime Minister of Pakistan:

Diplomatic efforts aimed at a peaceful settlement of the war in the Middle East are progressing steadily, strongly and effectively

- I sincerely ask President Trump to extend the deadline by two weeks.

Pakistan is asking its Iranian brothers to open the Strait of Hormuz for two similar weeks as a gesture of goodwill.

***Israel disagrees with this and said they'd need at least another month of heavy bombings of Iran to even think about a ceasefire..

Back in 1972, the United States dropped bombs to destroy North Vietnam cities for 12 days and nights, but still failed to subdue them.

If Israel is now using David’s Sling interceptors produced in 2026, their air defences are in a terrible state

DS is already their back up interceptor if the missile can’t be intercepted by THAAD or Arrow

Can expect <50% interception rate within 1-2 weeks

I heard “upgraded” David Sling had like 20% success rate against Iranian missiles.

They are firing like 4-5 against each Iranian MRBM that they will deplete within 1-2 weeks of these as well.

 

[Falcon29]

Iran should still deliver the strike package it had prepared for Israel

Assuming it is a deadline extension and not a ceasefire

 

[Shags101]

Iraqi security forces are pushing protesters away from from Kuwaiti embassy

Unrelated to US

So here’s food for thought yes most Iraqis are on Irans side I honestly don’t care if they are Sunni or Shia they are supporting Iran but I’m starting to think these protestors could be a set up to bring in armed men from different militias perhaps even Iranian forces intermixed with them in attempt to show they can and will hit back with their own allies and forces.

I can see this happening in Bahrain definitely Iran may be waiting to activate all of these sleepers very soon

There is a proverb in pashto language "Kuni odrigi kho Kuna e na odrigi", which loosely translates to A leopard can’t change its spots or You can’t straighten a dog’s tail.

So I am sure even if there is a ceasefire for 2 weeks. Israel won't stop and will attack in the middle of ceasefire. This will give the whole world idea why the peace isn't possible in ME with Israel being around. So Iran will get it's chance to get back to Israel on this.

There are no negotiations, Iran has already confirmed that. This "two-week deadline" story is because the "end of civilization" attack is a bluff, and it needs to be postponed. If Iran ever suffers a nuclear attack, those who attacked will receive a proportional attack in return.

Can expect <50% interception rate within 1-2 weeks (mostly from US SM-3 and a few lucky Iron Dome shots).

Do you think US/Israel will allow such a time to arrive where they dont have any interceptors left?
They will definately take some drastic steps before they run out of interceptors.

 

[omegalamba7xl9]

ironically we are still mentally associated with USD, i would suggest change it to Yaun

Yup give all the power to one people under XI... One color one race under communism we all stand in divisible under the premiereship of XI......
I don't have anything against the man himself or China, however it's too much power in one man's hand with no corridor to lobby...
Be careful what you wish for... Can't shake of little Israel dominating everything, how the heck will you do that if China's next premier turned out to be opposite of XI... FIVE FINGERS ARE DEFINITELY PART OF THE HAND BUT NOT THE SAME... REMEMBER THAT...
IF IT'S HARD WITH US WHICH IS MERGER OF THE PLANET VS ONE AS JET LI MOVIE SUGGESTED.
I WISH CHINA THE BEST FOR THEIR COUNTRY HOWEVER WORLD RESPONSIBILITY IS TOO MUCH TO HANDLE...

Linebacker campaigns.
This is what he wants to do again.

 

[Immortals]

The reformists and Larijani pragmatics won.

Shame. IRGC could have lead the country to greatness, but the elite classes didn’t want to face hardship like the rest of Iranians did.
