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

[muhammed45]

American daydreamer J. D Vance:

Iran should not rebuild its nuclear program.

Lol, what a complete idiot

 

[UKBengali]

Hit with what mental gymnastics? If Iran could not hit and sink one US carrier during the war, how would it do it now? Don't get me wrong, I would love for that to actually happen, but only if wishes were horses... wanting and having the ability to actually carry it out are two different things.

Iran has got plenty of missiles it could hit them with.

If the US Navy did not find Iran a threat, it would not be hiding away in Pakistani territorial waters.

Iran should absolutely ignore exactly where the US Navy is and hit them where they are.

 

[UKBengali]

You know what i'm thinking about?

Imagine if this 30-40k Pakistani troops were stationed right at the border with India, would Indians still dare to rape Kashmiri women and innocent girls, like one of their fathers said 'i swear to almighty not even the sun had seen the face of my poor daughter'?

Well, you very well said, i am a silly commentator. Pakistan has its own national interests. It even allowed Sharif to hug smelly Modi in the middle of street.

Bro, please can we get back to the topic and we should not reference such a sensitive Issue as regards The grave violations in Kashmir.

People are uprising against saud family

Post Yemen News in Yemen thread please

In a normal war, I don't think Iran will go this road....this is just a warning against the "nuke them" fantasies

Iran acted very smartly.

For many years Iran watched silently as all these cables were build and laid down in the oceans.
Big Tech from US established bases in the Arabian peninsula.
All companies of the world became heavily digitalized and dependent on these cables.

And in all these years, Iran only cleverly watched and did nothing....and now Iran can cash in

Not only are these cables weapons as threatning as nukes, they are also the biggest money printing machines in world history.....imagine if Iran would only put a 0.1% tax on the data transfer....Irans future looks very very wealthy

Yeah but that hasn't happened so far. There hasn't even been an escalation from the US and Co yet.

It doesn’t seem that an attack by the U.S. is imminent before the mid terms, though precautions must still be taken

The U.S. has not evacuated tankers from Qatar, Brent crude is back at $110 already, US diesel prices remain near all time highs, US inflation came in above expectations meaning further interest rate hikes are coming, US bond yields remain very high, the US SPR is at 40 year lows with minimal remaining buffers, and US interceptor stockpiles are much lower than the start of the war. Meanwhile, Iran has fully reconstituted its missile forces and command and control with new tactics and methods.

These are not good conditions for the U.S. to restart the war. Therefore, the U.S. will probably want any resumption of the war to be intense but short (and IRI / reformists will grant their wishes and accept a ceasefire as soon as possible, as usual).

What in your opinion will happen after midterms?

 

[Homajon]

There doesn't have to be a escalation.

At the final negotiatins, just as Iran will get money for ship transfer in the straight, Iran will also cash in for data transfer

By the way, only the financial transactions through the cables amount to 10 trillion dollars....a day!!!
Multiply that with 365.....so even if Iran would only put a 0.0001% toll on it....

Oh! My!

Even @Persian Gulf is feeling positive.

Then Trump and US must really be in a pickle.

As I (and small number of others) have been saying, the outcome of this war was decided in the first week.

The only thing to be decided is how much blood and treasure will be shed. That’s entirely upto Trump’s thirst for blood.

What I mean by outcome:

1. No colour revolution like the ones we saw in south Asian Muslim countries recently. Because their military leaders are CIA agents.

2. US retreat from Iran’s neighbourhood

3. Iranian sovereign control over SoH

4. Iran’s nuclear strategy will be decided by itself

5. Iran forges a path away from the petro dollar.

I still pop in that thread from time to time to see Persian Gulf and others dismantle 25 Battalion and Sc's propaganda "victories"!

Hey honestly I’m no fan of the war nor am I picking sides but facts are facts have a great day

 

[BananaRepublic]

You have an idea why Iran is deploying this strategy now leading up to mid terms or for Iran it's irrespective of midterms and will continue until Brent crude goes above $130 and gets sustained at that level for a month or so it even more ?

If this pressure can be suistianed for weeks and months it will force US to soften its demands, imo.

I still do not think Trump will sign a deal.

Same reason GWB and LBJ couldn’t stomach it despite the disasters they wrought.

The terms will be too humiliating.

It’s better to chug along then blame his successor for surrendering.

That’s what republicans did to Biden over Afghanistan retreat.

It’s more likely Trump will disengage and ask Europeans, Asians and Arabs to fend for themselves.

At which point, China and Arabs will come to understandings with Iran.

Trump will be severely limited by the democrats because they hate his guts. That’s the only thing the base and leadership agrees on.
