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

[Bengal71]

ALBMs are not easy to manufacture and some are like only produced in last 5 years.

They also are rather expensive at like 5 million+ each and so those numbers are not realistic in my opinion.

Remember they used a lot of glide bombs to attack targets in Iran, and only used ALBMs in mass at start of each campaign to take out radars etc and then during the war other highly defended targets where they wanted to stay away many hundreds of kms from firing.

I still stick that they only ever had many hundreds at start of June 2025 and are now in low hundreds at most(2-300).

I think they only had low hundreds to start with, probably 200-300. Israel is not China, they don't have manufacturing capabilities to build these things at rapid pace.

This war will never end until complete collapse of Iran or Israel . Look at the Russia Ukraine war . It has been four years and it will go on for four more years .

Hmm, Iran-Iraq war lasted 8 years. There was no "complete collapse" of either country. It seems to have ended when both sides suffered enough military and economic exhaustion that continuing the war became pointless. We may be approaching that point in U.S. - Iran war now. Both sides would like to cease hostilities if the other side can stick to it. If the Strait of Hormuz remains peaceful, it may signal we may be nearing that point. After the phase 1 war (after MOU was signed), IRGC still wanted to continue the fight and they restarted. Phase 3 of hostilities seems less likely even in the absence of a formal ceasefire.

Zelensky is a Jewish fraudster who is leading the youth of Ukraine to death. They will not beat Russia and they will not get their eastern provinces back by force. They will eventually have to negotiate and do a deal they could have done it at start without losing thousands of their men. But this bastard Jew is making money and using Ukraine as a proxy for UK and others. If west were freinds to Ukraine they would have said negotiate at start. When Biden was told that Ukraine short of soldiers he suggested lowering age of conscription to 21. Thats the kind of freind Ukraine dont need

I blame Russia to some extent to prolong this was, they should have killed Zelensky and his colleagues.

Yup . The only part that doesn’t make sense would be the Pakistani card.
This war is in reality against China. If Iran can be removed from the chessboard, then it would have dire consequences for the Chinese Oil imports.

It is going to be years and years of war .

Chinese think USA won't come after them if they act nice ...
They simply don't understand the westerners mindset

I was curious what it is saying. It is nothing bad. This is what it is:

This image shows an unusual international election campaign billboard featuring Gadi Eisenkot, the leader of Israel's centrist Yashar party and a former IDF Chief of Staff.

Billboard Context and Location Location: The billboard was placed on a highway near Larnaca and Limassol in Cyprus. The Message: Written in Hebrew, the text translates to: "Israelis, enjoy! You deserve it.". Campaign Purpose: The billboard explicitly targets the large numbers of Israeli tourists and expatriates vacationing or living in Cyprus. It is part of an effort by the Yashar party to encourage traveling voters to return home and vote in Israel's upcoming general elections scheduled for October 27, 2026. On the reverse side of the path leading back to Larnaca airport, a matching billboard reads: "Landed? Had fun? Now come back and win!".

Targeting expatriate voters is nothing new. For example, in the last (U.S.) election:

That's how the Israelis started the occupation of Palestine, started purchasing lands then claimed the whole country is theirs. Cyprus should learn from history, it's not looking good.

The best thing Israel ever did was those Assassination ops. Killing pacifists like Shamkhani, Larijani, and Khamenai Sr, as well as old stuck in their ways Generals allowed the system to reinvent itself. Killing Iranian civilians to teach the population that Israel and America don’t give a shit about brown people or their Freedom.

The best thing that can happen for Iran is for Israel to re enter this war. Because even then reformists like Zarif and Rouhani and pragmatics like Qalibaf won’t be safe as Israel tries to decapitate the entire system.

You need to be a lot more appreciate of the positive consequences that Israel’s attacks had on Iran. It could have been a lot worse if many of these former officials were still alive and running the country.

Careful mister. It has been longtime Israeli doctrine to kill moderate people in an organization so that more radical folks can rise and then Israel tells the world look what a nasty bunch of weirdos that org is and look how innocent and democratic we are! They did this with the PLO, with Hamas and now seemingly with Iran.

Russia had the option of going beast mode trying to end it quick. This exact same problem is with the Iranian leadership, hoping to be friends of the west when the west only wants to see your complete destruction. Russia has the same problem. If given the carrot of peace, investment etc by the west they will be very happy to leave the China alliance. Both of these countries are failing to treat a war as a war and set aside hidden desires in the heart, no matter how strong the desire is, if they enemy doesn't have the same feeling about you it will never work.

We have very active and influencal 5th columns in our country which is in control of government and large portion of economy. They are reality on the ground , the JCPOA was their doing but they didn't learned that the West won't accept them ....

Instead of attacking ukrain Iran needs to blame this all on israel and attack it instead. That would shut up the zionist and I bet after that they wouldn't test iran with another 3rd party.

How exactly do you convince us companies to invest in Iran when they are almost all heavily jew influenced/controlled? China will also not invest in Iran, if anything, they are there to extract wealth from an Iranian market.

It's guaranteed that no one will. Something that takes decades to occur might as well never occur.

Even if they don't, just removal of sanctions will do wonders to Iranian economy. Iran can build its own industries and be able to export them around the world. Investments will be great but Iran will be able to do without them. If a treaty holds and sanctions are removed, within a decade other countries will feel comfortable to invest, particularly the Chinese.

I know this very well. I have met Iranians in the west and didn't meet one that's not ultra secular wanting to see the current regime gone. Their preference is to be friends with the west, even by renting their rear ends to the west like the Saudis.
