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

[vmro]

They have a very big mouth, extreme arrogance and look from above to Iranians.
It's good that Asia is coming back, we should move towards an Asian-Iranian identity (Iran being one of the main powers and walls of Asia).
That means that the Islamic identity should be softened/faded, in general it damaged Iran anyways more by destruction of a stable forward going state (in that era Iran was the oldest and the only "nation-state" of the world and had a steady progress. They had their spies and made use of the 30 years Roman Christians/westerners - Iran wars and the Justinian Plague.

Khosrow I ("Anushirwan" The Immortal Soul), Shortly before the aggression/invasion of Muslim forces against Sassanid Iran introduced following reforms:

1. Tax Reforms Reorganized the tax system to make it fairer and more predictable. Replaced arbitrary taxation (based on whim) with fixed taxes assessed according to land productivity and population. Introduced a cadastral survey (systematic recording of land and ownership) to better estimate taxes.

2. Military Reforms Reorganized the army into a professional standing army. Established a "fourfold division" (North, South, East, West) of military commands. Reformed the cavalry (especially heavy cavalry called aswaran), offering salaries instead of relying on feudal levies. Fortified the eastern frontier (e.g., built the Great Wall of Gorgan to defend against nomadic invasions).

3. Administrative and Bureaucratic Reforms Strengthened the central bureaucracy. Reduced the power of the nobility (aristocrats who had previously dominated provincial government). Appointed professional officials based on merit rather than noble birth.

4. Legal Reforms Reorganized the judicial system. Codified laws more systematically to reduce corruption. Promoted justice (he was famous in Persian tradition as the model of a "just ruler").

5. Religious and Intellectual Policies Promoted religious tolerance (especially towards Christians, Jews, and even Greek philosophers fleeing the Byzantine Empire). Founded the Academy of Gundishapur (a major center for science, philosophy, medicine, and translation from Greek, Indian, and Syriac sources). Encouraged philosophy, medicine, astronomy, and translation movements. 6. Public Works Invested in infrastructure: built roads, bridges, canals, and dams. Improved agriculture with irrigation projects (particularly in arid parts of the empire). Urban development projects, including maintenance of cities and defense structures.

The roots of Sino-Iranian and Indo-Iranian identity took shape in pre-Islamic Iran. This should be our vision, we need a new vision and unfortunately I don't see visionary-revoultionary leadership. I explained earlier that I see Khamenei as an Abbasid puppet-caliph being led by external elements who have their own interests and who benefit from giving the system a face while themselves are hiding behind that face to continue their corruption.

Now the best way to answer Western-Hebrew fascists is creating ICBMs, Nuclear weapons, nuclear submarines so that we have second strike options if they decide to genocide us by nuclear or biological weapons (in the future).

The negotiations should only be carried out with the tought of enriching more Uranium @ 60% by prolonging the negotiations, demanding full sanction removal, full access to our shares which we still have in different western companies, full access to our funds. Also the agreement should be ratified by passing the senate and UN, some sort of law should be made from this agreement with a heavy penalty clause in case that they want to leave the agreement again. The agreement should be ONLY about nuclear sector and should include that no future sanctions can be given anymore, especially not on banking and tech, no new demands shall be made.

In addition add opening embassies and some preferal investment opportunities for American nuclear, energy, tech, aviation industry so that Trump can brag that he made a better deal.

In the end Iran should create a loop/escape hole for a strategic decision of creating nuclear weapons in case when it will be necessary in the future.

@Persian Gulf I edited some of the text, hope you'll be able to read it completely.

Iranians are, according to Hegel, oldest historical nation because even statuary regulated they were distinctive from other people in the Empire... Cyrus and Darius with their "eyes of king" invented secret intelligence services... World was divided into Eran(Iran) and Aneran(non-Iran) land...

But, your Idea has some disadvantages...Back to the Aryan Land concept, or Iranan cultural continent that includes majority land of the -stan states, even part of China, will be directly opossition to Turkish Idea of Turkistan... Or could be trap for Iran to get status of deputy leader, which could be soft neo-ottomanization... Because, let's be real, both countries are ambitious enough for Turkish acceptance that Tehran is their capital city, neither is it possible for Iranian people to accept Erdogan as own supreme leader...

Your idea would mean redefined Iranian national doctrine of Safavids... They projected influence through Arab countries to the Mediterranean for many reasons... More important area than central Asia, historical revenge on Arabians for previously known historical defeat, clear distinction from Turkish ottoman empire, Shia Islam was only free political space that could be used in that time...

Safavids are, IMHO, very underrated geopolitical geniuses, even in Iran itself... They recreated neo-persian empire in historically record breaking time...

Iranian preservation of Shia aura is smart move to guarantee that Iran will be among major factors across the region... If Iran goes to be redefined in new geopolitical shape, it will be risky, very risky business...

Even, paradoxically, IRGC will be less powerful if they decide to takeover the political power from Islamic Republic...

That is why Islamic Republic is not going to make nuclear weapons, because on long-term Iran could lose strategic edge, making unnecessary power projection across the region...

And there's a trap of losing geopolitical dynamics and being hibernated, like others in that neighborhood... Look, people are giving their maximum strength and focus only when they have to... Inertia could be path to oblivion in the long-term process...

Of course, this doesn't mean that national doctrine is infinitive and can't be redefined... Iranian iterations of Persian Empire itself has been redefined to new reality, multiple times...

But I can't speak about corruption and institutional erosion in the country, poison for every system, because I am not Iranian... But main postulates of the Islamic Republic are pretty logical to the Iranian national interest in multiple ways...

This is very complex and challenging issue, and every major different approach is with unknown long-term consequences... Firstly to be philosophically designed, geopolitical possible to execute and outweighed pros and cons for national future...

Pahlavids were open puppets

While reformists are astray pro west traitors [munafighs]

That is why raesi government was secretly in talk with USA

 

[BigMela2onin]

Yesterday, Putin ordered Russian fire fighting jets to fly over Iran to help us curb the fire in Rajaee Port without even requesting Iran's permission.

Why do you think Iran didn't ask? They had to ask Turkey for help finding Raesi's helicopter, I wouldn't be surprised if they asked for help on this too.

 

[Hack-Hook]

If Jalili or Raisi were in power everything was different

Majority of azeris made a great mistake by voting to pezeshkian

you mean the foreign agent jalili that everything he has done was against Iran and even there is video of him lying to Mr. Raesi

 

[Hack-Hook]

Yesterday, Putin ordered Russian fire fighting jets to fly over Iran to help us curb the fire in Rajaee Port without even requesting Iran's permission. We have literally turned into Russia's proud slave. If the negotiations with the US succeeds, what will happen? We will hand over our enriched uranium to Russia again. It's become a joke. We import natural uranium from Russia, spend billions of dollars to enrich it by accepting all sorts of sanctions for years and using gigawatts of energy and large facilities with thousands of employees, and then hand the enriched uranium to Russia like a student handing his homework to the teacher.

Iran's situationship with Russia has become so humiliating that it takes pages after pages to talk about it.

Yeah sure you are right. A quick search with the lelp of preplexity

 

[Garcia Sea]

It is truly regrettable, but your country has far too many people who advocate for foreign interests.
I was astonished by Pezeshkian's behavior of going to Azerbaijan, a country that openly covets the territory of northern Iran, and wagging his tail there.
If this were a Western country, there is no doubt that such a treasonous president would face fierce criticism and be swiftly ousted.
Iranians have lost far too much of their patriotism, deceived by the West's false liberal ideology.

First of all, the newspapers never wrote about that before it happened and I check Iranian media every day. Nevertheless, it's humiliating. Saudi Arabia expressed readiness to offer assistance but we refused and Saudi Arabia is way closer to Bandar Abbas than Russia.

That's beside the obvious point that the fire in Rajaee Port wasn't that hard for us to be able to curb on our own. It is pretty much the same story as requesting Turkey to find our President's copter all over again.

Want more examples like this? Khamenei said we would not negotiate with the US and he said anyone who does that has no dignity and no sanity but Russia said Iran was ready to negotiate with the US. And guess what happened?

what about treasonous previous president, his helicopter even crashed while he was attending a ceremony to inaugurate some shared project


stop this nonsense we are neighbor with Azerbaijan , we sure have common interest and also he some disagreement it won't meant we go to war
dialogue and finding common interest and strengthening them is path forward
by the without friendly relation with Azerbaijan we must say goodby to south-north corridor

A country that was probably involved in the assassination of our previous President. A country that calls Iranian Azerbaijan part of their territory even though historically Iran can legally claim their entire territory. A country that helped Israel launch an attack on Tehran, a country that suppresses Shiite people, a country that is trying to block Iran's access to Europe through Armenia, the list goes on.

they store chemical substance and flammable petrochemical product in that area, if controlling such fire is easy for, good I'm sure every country in the world would be glad to hire you

by the way i will be glad if you tell us how many firefighting aircraft or helicopter KSA have? my own search returned ZERO

as i previously stated our strategy and actually many other countries strategy in such fire is controlled it, prevent its further spread and let it eat itself out

Petrochemical products burn fast usually. The fire spreading to other containers was the main issue probably. Saudi Arabia curbed the fire at Abqaiq in a day (or even few hours, per Saudi sources) without foreign assistance. The area that caught fire is nothing compared to forest arsons that countries curb on their own.

The Kingdom also expresses its readiness to provide any assistance requested by brothers in Iran in the aftermath of this tragedy.

if you believe Tar and Paraffin and plastic material burn fast then good for you

and nobody said ksa didn't offered help , the question is do they have aerial firefighting capabilities

Saudi Arabia restrained the fire at Abqaiq and Khurais in a matter of hours. Whatever firefighting capabilities they have, it has worked in the past. And Abqaiq is deeper inside Saudi territory, not near water like the port.

they have ground based firefighting capability
it take 2-3 day for them to reach Iran. and fire like Abqaiq we also control in 1 day

I'm sure the Saudis know much better than you what capabilities they have to offer.
When they officially offer assistance, they obviously don't mean "ground-based" firefighting capabilities.
And if Iran can repurpose Ilyushin Il-76 in a matter of hours for firefighting capabilities, I'm sure the Saudis can do that as well.

I have also checked that Aramco owns at least two Air Tractor 802 aircrafts for aerial firefighting.
