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

[Persian Gulf]

this is the guy threatening Iran, by the way.

Without air support and cover of their "underground bases" how do you imagine the Iranian military will even survive ?

Air power is the most critical element in invasion. Your fantasies are that Iran without airforce and cover of their underground bases will just march into Saudi territory and keep invading bahrain, and so on... LOL!

You have spent enough time in defense forum, learn a thing or two atleast.

There are big PMU units in Iraq. Houthis are there too. Iran has a million men under arms.

Abbu-G humreeka tried for 40 days but failed to counter Iran. Wonder what a demoralized GCC can do now?

The last guy that tried to invade Kuwait and met USAF for the first time:

These guys were on their way out after plundering kuwait on the 11:59 train. They got caught out in the open.

Saudi Arabia isn't defenseless. It's a serious adversary.
Bahrain and Kuwait are defenseless though, but invading them requires more than just missiles.

The Emirates can defend itself militarily, but it will collapse internally very fast.
Emirati cities won't last even a year without its foreign workers. Once shit hits the fan, it will go down really fast.

Sawdi Judea will also go down if Iran goes after em.

We all know they can’t fight.

So true! It seemed like every few months or so I would turn on the news and there would be some politician saying "Iran is months away from a nuclear weapon"

After a while only boomers here would be scared of that Fox News garbage.

Same like Iraqi story …. WWD

One decade, one year, one month, one day. You would have to be braindead to still believe this mate.

seems some ships got through and Iran hit Fujairah to punish them

Iran concluded that UAE jets were used to bomb Iranian energy facilities in the final days of the war.

Also, by announcing it's receipt and use of israeli weapons on its soil and not disagreeing it is in some type of alliance with Israel, UAE has communicated to iran that it is an israeli outpost in the GCC, and with its proximity to iran and poorer defenses than israel(plus iran confirming UAE took part in attwcning it with US and israel), it's too tempting and karmic for iran to attack it, so here it is. Israel came closer to iran and iran couldn't ignore that opportunity.

U.S. bond yields at the levels where Trump previously TACO’d on tariffs and accepted a ceasefire in Iran.

Likely related to his vicious attacks on Powell today, begging for lower interest rates (not going to happen).

I Know Iran is not going to invade any one, I was just responding to the thesis that UAEAF will stop the hypothetical invasion of Iran.

War has changed a lot in last two decades. Brits ruled half of the world with out airforce so as many empires in past, but thats the ancient history. Miserable failures of US in Afg, Vietnam, Iraq and Ukrainan quagmire for Russia is evidence of it. Now we have AI controlled Drones hunting down whatever humans fighting 1 on 1 in battlefield.

This will be a different military warfare debate. But I will just briefly respond for the last time on the subject of "Iranian invasion of GCC". Its impractical by every sense. The Iranians success you see is its missile and drone force which it has built and invested for decades and hardened it in underground bases. By seeing that success you cannot conclude that can Iran somehow invade into another territory without traditional military & logistic layers.

There is no concept of moving mass forces without air support in modern warfare. Now you rightly said that drones are taking roles in battlespace as we see in ukraine russia war, but here's the thing there is no alternative to fighter jets. No drone can shoot down a fighter jet. While fighter jets armed with LGBs can annihilate an entire convoy of military trucks and at same time can shoot down drones. Again the scenes of FPV drones you see in Ukraine war are not implementable here. As in Ukraine the two frontlines are in contact with each other and pushing other, those FPV drones are short range drones being controlled by the frontlines themselves. They don't have to solve the problem of transporting mass number of soldiers across several countries to reach the frontline as they are already in contact. Plus Ukraine/Russia is densely forest / woodland, giving soldiers a million places to hide while operating those short range drones. To reach uae, any force from iran would have to travel in open in a desert for 1000s of kilometers Or cross a sea. Both are suicidal missions.

There are big PMU units in Iraq. Houthis are there too. Iran has a million men under arms.

Abbu-G humreeka tried for 40 days but failed to counter Iran. Wonder what a demoralized GCC can do now?

Bro, I feel that you make such statements knowingly that don't make any sense. Houthis can't travel in their toyotas across Saudi and Oman to reach uae or qatar. Houthis are dugged in north western yemen. Let's not fool ourselves.

As far as Iraq PMUs are concerned, forget about invading any country, let's ask them to first invade the US base in Iraq or even take care of the Kurds.

The million men under arms of Iran are for defense of Iran. US air power + gcc air forces will have a field day if such mass numbers start to move on open desert terrain. If you assume that Iran could "invade" gcc countries then why on earth iran needs underground bases in its own territory? It does because it knows that enemy airforce can hit it deep inside its own territory (and even rescue their pilots from their territory under their nose, we all saw US helicopters flying over Iranian territory with a tanker above them). and you expect Iran to go in hostile territory in a complete desert ?? You really high on something or what?

As far as US tried for 40 days, well ofcourse that's a different war. US had unwinnable objectives that to do regime change with air power or to completely destroy iran's offensive capability. If the objectives would have been to hit iranian military entering into kuwait or bahrain then you should be smart enough by now that what would have been the results. Iranian missile/drone capability survived only because its fortified in various underground bases. Anything outside is vulnerable, the leaders who were not in bunkers got killed. Iran knows its limitations and strengths. Iran will NEVER fight a war where it has weaknesses. It will only fight where it has strenghts. So take out that childish dreams of invasion.
