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

How are they going to accomplish that?

Let me guess. Those American Freedom Fighters with drones you've referred to?
Not only the Freedom Fighters but Iran has the ability to target space objects and the earth on a 16000km radius

They don't because the war wasn't an existential threat to Iran and would have shot themselves in the foot if they did
 
Convince me why the USAF needs to be based in the PG countries.

The Air Force is flying missions all the way from CONUS and back. The Navy and Marines can operate from well outside the range of Iranian missiles.

With the tanker assets held, tactical strike packages can fly in from anywhere as has been demonstrated over and over again. The result of this has allowed assets flying from Europe to strike targets all over Iran up to and including the Pakistan border.

I seem to recall the strikes of June 2025 had significant negative impact on Iran's nuclear program. Not the other way around.

The question is not if USAF can operate outside of the PG. We all know they can (with issues, like 3 squak KC135/KC46 launched in few weeks after the war because long endurance flights problems in a ageing fleet like those KC135 at least).

The question is; USAF and US Navy operated well inside Persian Gulf before the war, and now they can´t. And even beyond. The Point 4 of the MOU says explicitly

"United States of America further undertakes to remove its forces from the proximity of the Islamic Republic of Iran within 30 days after the final deal."

And the Point 9 says also very clearly "The Islamic Republic of Iran will maintain the current status quo of its nuclear program, and the United States of America will not impose any new sanctions and will not deploy additional forces in the region."


So. Status quo ante bello will never return.
Whatever forces deployed, must be agreed with... Irán.

That is not a slap in the face of the Islamic Republic. It is a slap to the US White House and... Pentagon.

Good. I wonder why Iran invited Modi at first place ??

Did Iranians forgot that one night earlier of the attack, Modi was in Israel, holding hands with Israeli leaders and saying loud and clear that "India is fully and completely standing with Israel". I thought Modi was hopeful that Iran would lose and Israel would establish its hegemony all over the Middle east.
