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

GWXP said:
In the past Iran was not ready for war.

It was in Iran's best interests to postpone the war as long as possible.

Imagine if war started in 2015. Iran's missile arsenal was small, missiles inaccurate, drone arsenal non existent and China was still a developing country vulnerable to US pressure.

How Iran could respond to US and Israel in 2015 for example?

Khamenei did a good job by postponing the conflict as long as possible and not falling to Israel-US provocations .

Iran won time to improve centrifuge technology, accumulate large arsenal of accurate missiles and drones and develop air defense systems.

It would have been even better if Iran could have another 5 years to improve IR-9 centrifuge technology and increase missile and drone arsenal even further.

When you are fighting a global superpower, better to fight in 2026 than in 2009, 2016 or 2020.

Sun Tzu - "To win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill".

The best scenario in Khamenei's mind was winning time until 2035 when Iran is fully equipped for war, nuclear program is unstoppable, while China is a new global superpower that is ready to challenge the US.

I'm not much into the Sunni Shia crap
But yes, Arabs generally don't think on the long term and only view immediate gains.
If Europeans are pushed too far Arabs might feel the heat afterward.
But anyway they are dumb to the core, they will keep going and that will backfire........ Already hard to be mistaken for an Arab in France now...
 
Regarding that pick axe mountain bombing that's looks like a face saving by trump before elections. Something he can brag about and justify his failure in Iran war.
Else no sane mind would tell in advance of any striking any secret nuclear facility. And gave enemy a chance to hide enriched uranium or centrifuges.

So far, nothing has gotten that close to a USN ship by the Iranian Armed Forces during this conflict.

Imagine if he does bomb that mountain for electoral purposes, and the Iranians test their N weapon a day before the elections.

Every single one of his visits results in something like this. I wonder what blackmail he brings to Trump each time.

Credible analysts like Max Blumenthal said at the start of this war in February that probably someone 'very close' to Trump is connected with the Epstein Files. Then some weeks later, Melania had to make a very unusual public statement to distance herself from Jefferey Epstein. Add to the mix, a person of stature like JD Vance recently connected J. Epstein with Mossad--a remarkable statement. Vance must know a lot more. Trump is so much in Netanyahu's pocket that Trump publicly insulted the Israeli President Herzog some months ago while asking Herzog to give a pardon to Netanyahu, which Herzog has admirably refused so far.

Overall very good post!
As to the quoted part: Netanyahu too knows what you are saying here and he has his man in the White House and as long as he is the PM of Israel, he will keep trying to use Trump to destroy Iran. This is Netanyahu's last chance to fulfill his lifelong wish: Total dominance in the Middle East and as of now only Iran and Turkey stand in Netanyahu's way. I believe if Iran were to fall like Syria did in early 2025, then Turkey would be next.
 
One of the better Iranian targeting choices, hitting data centers. It's a valid target also as tech companies are now deeply embedded in US/Israeli military, CIA, NSA and AI is utilized for surveillance / targeting.

Another angle it hurts is the GCC countries want to be the main data center hosts in the future. There should be lot more DC hits across GCC, esp on Saudi and Emirates, if hostilities continue.

Iran is Plinking Amazon Data Centers Like Tin Cans on a Fence

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp's recent attack on two Amazon data centers marks the fourth such attack since the war began.
