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

[925boy]

And you think the US will somehow magically stop supporting them if Iran effectively wipes them off the map by hitting their vital infrastructure?

We (Iran) cannot fight back against the US. Yes, we can hit US military bases, destroy their aircraft carriers, etc. But at the end of the day, Iran has no effective way of hurting the US mainland while the US can and will do that.
The US nuclear arsenal has a destructive power of several giga tones. Even if we assume Iran has nukes, or will develop them immediately, our destructive power will hardly reach even one mega tone.

Are you sure about that? Iran is only a few months away from an actual ICBM and nuclear weapon (combo), so i dont believe US is actually that far from Iran's reach- US is fully within North Korea's nuclear ICBM range as we speak, it wasn't that way 10-20 years ago or so. US will do some damage inside Iran, but Iran will hold out successfully and declare victory, then US will try to forget the war like it did with its Afghanistan war.

My point is that they (the West and Israel) want war.

based on what?

They have already decided that they want war with Iran

i dont really think so- if they did, for one, Israel would have hit Iran harder. NATO is already drained from the Ukraine war- they told Israel to not hit Iran hard (or its hardest)so it wouldn't start a war between Iran and Israel which NATO isn't equipped to handle at the moment.

and even if we don't give them an excuse for that, they will make one after another.

Hasn't happened yet- they need all their military forces focused on Russia at the moment, US military posture in the ME is not large and when it is, it isn't sustainable.

So, at this point, we have no choice but to defend ourselves to the best of our ability.

YOu have to defend yourselves because Israel has gone crazy, on your country, so that is a normal reaction- if Israel is possessed, then Iran must open silos and release kinetic ballistics to reorient Israel out of its supremacist demonic existence.

In my opinion, we should level up our deterrence by going after high-yield nuclear weapons.

hmmm....thats high risk and low reward IMO. Hit Israel where it needs to function and satisfy citizens and the supremacist state- make it unlivable, like its made its region. Make the sadists sad. You can say eye for an eye is barbaric, but you can't say its not fair.

War with Iran won't happen without boots on the ground. I personally don't think Israel will put up much of a fight. They would have to go through hostile territories in Syria and Iraq before reaching Iranian border lol.the only saving grace for Israel is it's air force. Israel will never commit ground offensive on Iran that's suicidal. They will drag the US in and let them do the heavy work.

people might be hostile but they control govt and proxies till Baghdad..

I mean the resistance groups in Syria and Iraq. They will plant IEDs on the road to blow up Israeli armored vehicles. Israel can't afford ground invasion on Iran. America is too busy with china and russia they can't fight 3 fronts war lol

I wasn't suggesting that Israel or US wants a land war with Iran. The ground invasion would only be in Lebanon.

I can't foresee any realistic scenario where US troops would be on the ground in Iran or Lebanon.

I don't see why US boots would be needed, especially grunts. Even if a limited number of US specialists are needed, they would be far from the front lines.

I was surprised that THAAD requires US personnel; I would have expected them to teach Israelis how to operate it.

A ground war with Iran is impossible without large scale US support

True Promise 3 must deliver a decisive and crushing blow to Israhell's weapons production capabilities to 'return the favor' of what they attempted to do to Iran... Factories, armaments storage sites, vehicle repair workshops, fuel depots, these all ought to go...

That desal plant gets hit near Tel Aviv and demolished, most Israelis will be at risk of death within a few days.

It’s low hanging fruit no? Cutting the water supply to millions. Easy peasy no?

This report doesn't make much sense as US/Israel are active over Iraqi airspace and monitoring it more closely. They would strike the missiles if they saw them being moved around in Iraq if they aren't already prepared beforehand.

It’s important sometimes to listen to professor Marandi on what he says. Generally he’s right on the money. Rarely he’s been wrong:

B-52 is a flying coffin. The real threat is the cruise missiles that the bomber is able to carry not free fall bombs that once rained over heads of Japanese, Korean, Dresden, Vietnam etc. Today they are of no threat to an strong network of IADS.
