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

[guangdongt]

May God bless the Iranian people and help them survive the disaster

 

[Yellow is Okay]

Nor will the Russians, or anyone else. All the painful for Iran, given that Russia is meant to be an ally of Iran

I called that relation between Iran and Russia a bluff from the start, but there are plenty of people out there still caught up in their fantasies.

 

[RescueRanger]

Theres no such a thing as the "skies of Syria", the skies above Syria, Jordan and Iraq belong to Israel and the US.

This.

They will not achieve regime change or remove nuclear threat without boots on the ground. Lets see if they do that.

It's fake news

Facts state otherwise!!

Weizmann Institute, targeted in Iranian attack, hosts technological hub of Israeli nuclear research​

While Israel denies possessing nuclear weapons, Weizmann Institute spearheads Israeli nuclear development​

ISTANBUL / ANKARA

Allegations have come to the fore that the Weizmann Institute of Science, damaged in Iran's missile attacks, is linked to nuclear research and military projects.

Founded in 1934, the Weizmann Institute of Science is named after Chaim Weizmann, one of the leading figures of the Zionist movement, who was also the founder of the institute and Israel's first president.

Described by the Israeli press as the country's “technological backbone” and “strategic base,” the institute is known for its research in fundamental sciences such as physics, chemistry, and biology.

Israel's official stance is to deny possessing nuclear weapons capabilities.

In the work of many organizations, such as the US-based Wisconsin Project on Nuclear Arms Control and the Institute for Middle East Policy Studies, the Weizmann Institute is associated with the nuclear research center located near Dimona in the Negev Desert.



- Bergmann: Father of Israel's nuclear program

Israeli scientist Ernst David Bergmann is recognized as the “father of Israel's nuclear program.”

In a 2014 joint study by the University of Cincinnati in the US and Tel Aviv University in Israel, Bergmann's influence on Israel's policies was evaluated as a mentor to the institute's fundamental research.

According to the study, Bergmann, who was the first chairman of the Israel Atomic Energy Commission in 1952, emphasized the importance of training Israeli scientists with a background in nuclear physics as the foundation for Israel's steps toward developing nuclear weapons.

Bergmann, who was also one of the founders of the nuclear research center in Dimona, utilized the research infrastructure and human resources at the Weizmann Institute to launch and develop the country's nuclear program.

Bergmann became interested in this issue after the US government of the time published the Smyth Report on atomic bombs, and in this context, he reached an agreement with former President Weizmann to send institute personnel to France and Sweden to receive training in nuclear chemistry.

Thanks to the intensive efforts of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), in 1994 the US administration approved the sale of a total of nine supercomputers to industries related to nuclear and missile programs, including the Technion University and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel, as well as the Weizmann Institute.



- Institute also plays key role in military projects

According to information on the Weizmann Institute's official website, the institution is Israel's most important scientific research facility.

The institute plays an important role in advanced weapons and military technology research and development.

The institute's strategic value lies in its cutting-edge military research and development work.

The Weizmann Institute of Science collaborates with leading companies such as the Israeli army and the Israel-based defense company Elbit Systems on advanced technology development.

The institute also contributes to the development of Israel's drone technology, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity.



- Israel-Iran conflict

Tensions have escalated since Friday, when Israel launched coordinated airstrikes and drone attacks on multiple sites across Iran, including military and nuclear facilities, prompting Tehran to launch retaliatory strikes.

Israeli authorities said that at least 24 people have been killed and hundreds injured in Iranian missile attacks since Friday.

Iran, for its part, said that at least 224 people have been killed and over 1,000 others wounded in the Israeli assault

Is this true?

Russia needs more chaos in the ME for the skyrocketing oil price to pay off its war time economy.

Maybe also to prevent Mossad from communicating with their agents too!

rabid bully. There is nothing left in the world. No order, or law or no logic. Countries are relying on sheer power to confiscate anything they want. Trump wants to build hotels in Gaza. He humiliated Zalensky. Now, he wants unconditional surrender from Iran and to kill Khamnae.
Such a bullish behaviour.

I think only a Muslim NATO can establish a long term deterrence in the region. Even that door is closing with more Muslim countries being subjected to western and Zionist hegemony.

I really hope Iran and its government can prevail and survive this.

Pakistan KSA Türkiye and Iran should have some sort defense agreement. Such an agreement is likely top of mind for many Muslim capitals today after this major wake up call.

 

[StrategicBear]

Right now, a major game changer is if both Pakistan and North Korea intervenes and enters the war on behalf on Iran, with China flying in supplies and threatening to liberate Taiwan immediately if the USA bombs Iran.

2 MOAB coming for 1. Fordow 2. leadership bunkers...

I hope they have contingency plans in action now unlike their . plans!

 

[Pak-Warrior]

Hah!
The real reason for attacking Iran are not the Iranian nukes. For that Iran would not only have to develop nukes but also figure out reliable, potent delivery mechanisms. It is not that easy to do while under constant watch and sanctions. North Korea's missiles were called 'duds' for a while and they may still be ineffectual as 'nukes'. North Korea's 'nukes' are its artillery and missiles destroying Seoul.
Iran's 'nukes' are its missiles and that's one of the targets of this war. The 'deal' Trump is talking about is removing any Iranian ability to strike Israel even conventionally!

Yep, Israel / US won't bother if Iran would have had an Impotent airforce like Egypt. They are only troubled by Iran's strike capability to hit Israel via its Ballistic missiles. Missiles which were getting advance / faster by the passage of time too. So, yeah they want to get rid of Iran's Ballistic Missile program and completely destroy its nuclear capability. It seems they will be successful to destroy the nuclear program but destroying the BM program is difficult. I think Iran will be able to recover, and even further advance its missile program in years to come. It will take time to recover but doable.

Chosen ones .... my God..

Give it another week and they'll also become believers! Another idiot from them will come out say stop! We are ahl kitab, we're basically the same as you. Just wait for it. Lastly they'll swear they're Ahl Bayt!

Iran’s top general says ‘punitive’ attacks will be launched against Israel​

According to Iran’s Press TV, Seyyed Abdolrahim Mousavi, shief of staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, has said: “The operations carried out so far have been a warning for deterrence – the punitive operation will be executed soon.”
