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



Guess Iran doesn’t have any long range SAMs to shoot down this MQ-4C flying at 47,000 ft. Far outside the altitude that manpad or 358 missiles could hit.

that is 50km from any major Iranian coastal city, not a short distance

if any LR SAMs still exist, they are probably not stationed on the coastline

Sayyad missiles can reach 200KM+ So you don’t need to be on coastline to hit that.

It just goes to show how depleted Iranian air defenses are against higher altitude threats.

The copium answer would be that iran doesn’t want to take the bait and fire on it and give away its 3rd Khordad or other similar system position away to be destroyed by a fighter jet
 
It appears like US attack is entirely ruled out at this point. Trump threw GCC under the bus because GCC didn't normalize with Israel.

Iranian leadership is unsure if it's bait or should they make moves on GCC.

While US naval blockade/sanctions is designed to get Iran to lash out on GCC. Some in Iranian leadership appear aware of this. Some maybe want to make a move on GCC and expand their sphere of influence.

Question is why does US want to throw GCC under the bus for ? There doesn't appear to be a rational reason to do so.
 


Iranian television:

The response will be geographically unrestricted, with the possibility of targeting RAF Fairford air base in southern England, from which American bombers took off during the last war against Iran.

The warhead of the Khorramshahr missile has been modified, potentially multiplying its range several times over. There are no limits to the range of Iranian missiles.
In the event of any attack on our country
 


Guess Mosaad gonna pin its doing on Iran and force us to bomb them?


Hey @grok, concise, no spin.

In 1865, Abraham Lincoln had CRUSHED the Confederacy and helped destroy slavery. The defeated government had a powerful secretary of state who controlled SECRET OPERATIONS and intelligence agents abroad.

John Wilkes Booth, the actor who would ASSASSINATE LINCOLN, had traveled to Canada, where Confederate spies operated.

One of Booth’s accomplices later claimed that the SAME secretary of state personally gave him $200 IN GOLD and SECRET ORDERS.

On April 1, that SAME official obtained another $1,500 IN GOLD from a secret government account.

Just FIVE DAYS after the Confederate army surrendered, Booth SHOT LINCOLN IN THE HEAD.

Investigators discovered that LINCOLN’S ASSASSIN possessed a SECRET MILITARY SPY CODE used by Confederate intelligence agents to encrypt communications. The SAME CIPHER SYSTEM was found in that official’s abandoned office.

The secretary of state then FLED AMERICA IN DISGUISE.

@grok, who was this Confederate secretary of state, and what was his religious background?

@grok, full name and religion ethnicity only

U.S. behaviour toward its proxies follows a distinct logic, it supports them only as long as it serves American interests. While you may argue that the United States sacrifices the Gulf periphery states, this is likely driven by underlying calculations. For instance, the failure of U.S. proxies in Yemen could lead to a broader conclusion in Washington’s policy-making. Neither the United States nor its proxies were able to manage the Yemen crisis effectively and efficiently. Even attempting to replace the U.S. with regional actors to achieve American objectives has proven unsuccessful. This desperation is driving Washington to shift its priorities towards the Indo-Pacific. Furthermore, the United States’ inability to achieve a military victory against Iran is a significant factor in its shift from an offensive to a defensive posture, which involves sacrificing its proxies. For decades, Iranian leadership has exerted maximum effort to avoid being provoked into a war with the Gulf states by the U.S. There are high-profile examples of this; from the UAE’s illegal claims over the Iranian islands to other instances where Iran was well within its rights to crush Bahrain, the UAE, or Jordan. However, the Muslim identity of these populations and Iran’s own strategic interests necessitated restraint to avoid direct conflict with the regional states. In truth, Iran was seeking a pretext—or rather, buying time—for the final confrontation with the evil expire and axis of evil (US-ISrael) that had tormented it for years through proxies and subordinates (take Syria as an example for it). Iran’s ultimate goal, however, is not to seek revenge against regional countries, but to expel the United States from the region. Saudi Arabia’s unjustified intervention in Yemen was the Al-Saud dynasty’s greatest mistake since its rise to power in the Arabian Peninsula; despite the calamities it caused, it has placed itself on the precipice. This is a divine promise: that oppressors and the arrogant shall dig their own graves with their own hands
