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

[Garcia Sea]

More than one month of air strikes and Iran is no closer to giving him the surrender terms he wants. But he thinks a few more weeks of the same failed strategy will be the winning strategy? Delusional, and out of ideas.

Unfortunately, in light of historical lessons, the cycle of ceasefire → surprise attack → ceasefire is an effective tactic. Many nations that initially withstood the first strike have been forced to surrender within a short period due to this tactic, known since ancient times as a “peace offensive.” Philip II, the father of Alexander the Great who conquered Iran, used this method to conquer Greece and lay the foundation for his empire. No country can fight if its soldiers’ morale collapses. When the military and the people see a weak leader who easily agrees to a ceasefire only to be humiliatingly ambushed, their will to fight is lost. Even Assad collapsed so easily after being ambushed because he had agreed to a ceasefire with HTS. It was a defeat that would never have happened if the fighting had continued.

Iran should preemptively attack Israel this time, if they spot an imminent attack take out those air refuelers early and their air campaign will take a huge hit.

sorry to disappoint but its not happening.....don't even expect.....

Breaking news: President Trump said that he tentatively called off plans for the U.S. military to attack Iran after the heads of three countries in the Middle East asked him to give negotiations more time.

Trump insisted, however, that the U.S. military is prepared to launch a “full, large scale assault of Iran, on a moment’s notice” if negotiations sour.

The only way Iran to preemptively attack Iran without Iran risking trump attempting to bring nato into it by directly attacking Iran is with Hezbollah but Hezbollah is already in a low to medium level conflict with the idf there’s no actual ceasefire there like there is no ceasefire in Gaza barely a ceasefire in Iran at this point

In the previous war US attacked military and government targets in Iran but it was ineffective.

They bombed missile bases - but they survived because they are located underground.

They bombed missile production facilities - but they are also located underground.

They bombed drone factories - but they are located underground.

They bombed Iranian leaders - but they are located in underground bunkers.

They bombed military bases - but equipment and personel had been dispersed.

So US and Israel conducted a totally ineffective air campaign that achieved nothing but radicalization of the Iranian regime and people.

If this time Trump bombs civilian infrastructure like powerplants and bridges, Iran will attack powerplants and desalination plants in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Israel and decivilize them.

Also if Trump bombs Iranian civilian infrastructure, Iran will attack oil infrastructure of the region and close the Strait of Bab-el-Mandeb and this will do enormous damage to the global economy in general and US economy in particular.

Before the previous war Iran had 7300 ballistic missiles and after launching 2200 Iran currently has around 5000 ballistic missiles of which 3000 are MRBMs and 2000 are SRBMs.

As of May 2026, the UK and France are leading a multinational, defensive naval mission to secure commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, not a direct invasion of Iran, following severe disruption to trade. The UK has deployed HMS Dragon, while France is positioning naval assets to protect vessels.

Keep limiting my replies because I call out your bs, very mature.
You obviously have zero military background

And no HMS dragon is parked off Cyprus!
Facts matter, once again forced to call you out

Can someone block this clown from over using and spamming the smiley face ?
he seems like a child.

Putin certainly does not want the war to end. The longer the war lasts, the higher the oil prices, and the more Russia profits. But if Iran and the United States reach an agreement, Putin cannot prevent the war from ending. Putin's visit to China should be to protect Russia's interests in Iran, not to prevent the end of the war.

This time, Putin's visit to China will see the signing of documents to elevate the diplomatic relations between the two countries. As the diplomatic relations between the countries rise, the unlocked cooperation functions between the countries will increase. From the current perspective, the decisive documents for two wars in the world should be on the table in Beijing, and who knows, maybe one day the United Nations War Mediation Committee will open in China.

China is already superior to US in many aspects.

1) China's GDP PPP is 37% larger than US (44,3trln$ vs 32,3trln$).

2) China's manufacturing is twice larger than US by value with China having 33% of global manufacturing compared to 16% in USA.

But since Chinese manufactured goods are cheaper than US and if we calculate by volume than China's manufacturing is 3 times larger than that of the US.

3) China produces 1,1mln scientific publications compared to 400K in USA and China makes 1,7mln patent applications compared to only 600K in USA.

4) China's infrastructure is better than US infrastructure and architecture of Chinese cities is superior to US cities.

5) Since the top 20% of Chinese produce 45% of GDP and the top 40% of Chinese produce 70% of GDP, with the GDP PPP of 44,3trln, China has 280mln people with GDP PPP per capita of 71.000$ (comparable to Canada or Germany) and 560mln people with GDP PPP per capita of 56.000$ (comparable to Japan or Spain.)

Saying in other words, out of 1,4bln people China has 280mln people who enjoy standard of living like Canada or Germany or 560mln people with standard of living like Japan or Spain.

The only thing in which China is inferior to USA is military power and China will reach military parity with USA in 2035 and this will make China #1 power of the world.

I think Turkish lira depreciation has more to do with Mr Erdogan's unconventional monetary policies, which he is convinced are correct.

Oh bhai this Iran war has exposed all these 2 rupee countries. All these weak countries can be wrapped up quick by the Zio oligarchs overnight and regime changed. They got no oomph at all.
