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.

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.

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.

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

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.
