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

can it be an assassination?

Many are now acknowledging that Israelis are stretched and running out of options. They can't do much without dragging Yankees into the conflict. Iranians are proving resilient.

For sure, it is a war of attrition. Even NY Times is saying that.

Aside from a potentially game-changing American intervention that shapes the fate of Iran’s nuclear program, two factors will help decide the length of the Israel-Iran war: Israel’s reserve of missile interceptors and Iran’s stock of long-range missiles.

Since Iran started retaliating against Israel’s fire last week, Israel’s world-leading air defense system has intercepted most incoming Iranian ballistic missiles, giving the Israeli Air Force more time to strike Iran without incurring major losses at home.

Now, as the war drags on, Israel is firing interceptors faster than it can produce them. That has raised questions within the Israeli security establishment about whether the country will run low on air defense missiles before Iran uses up its ballistic arsenal, according to eight current and former officials.

Already, Israel’s military has had to conserve its use of interceptors and is giving greater priority to the defense of densely populated areas and strategic infrastructure, according to the officials. Most spoke on the condition of anonymity to speak more freely.

Interceptors are “not grains of rice,” said Brig. Gen. Ran Kochav, who commanded Israel’s air defense system until 2021 and still serves in the military reserve. “The number is finite.”

“If a missile is supposed to hit refineries in Haifa, it’s clear that it’s more important to intercept that missile than one that will hit the Negev desert,” General Kochav said. Conserving Israel’s interceptors is “a challenge,” he added. “We can make it, but it’s a challenge.”

The monday or tuesday Iranian strike on Tel Aviv/Haifa - all Israeli accounts said that something big or important was happened with or during the strike, but they would report about later.

What was that important accident? I missed it.

I wonder if Pakistan will close its airspace if it thinks an attack is coming? Only way to keep track of its airspace.

I wonder what they say in Arabic speaking groups/channels/news. They were always quick to dismiss us, but surely they see now?

F them bro! The general public sees! Let them continue hating as much as they want! Generational struggle. This is NEVER going to be forgotten. Our grandchildren will be safe and speak of this with pride as a defining moment

I am suspecting that the treasure trove of sensitive Israeli intelligence files Iran extracted contains a lot of sensitive information of many US politicians. Who know the true Epstein files might be in them. Could Iran be blackmailing Trump and others of having them released to the world???

Could this be holding the onslaught back?

Didn't they already release the Epstein files? Regardless a lot of people know what US policticians and celebrities have done in the past and it tends to be forgotten until it becomes a headline again. Even if they were released they could be suppressed by US media

Looks like an old tweet from a few days ago. I was tracking that specific flight number.

CargoLux is denying any involvement.

Why are the Iranians announcing targets before?

Are they really that stupid?

So you agree that your chances of survival as an innocent civilian in Israel are much higher than your chances in Iran?

yes because their population has been drilled and practiced to handle emergencies. Having personally experienced a major earthquake in Iran and a first hand experience of a skiing accident near Tehran I can tell you Iranian emergency response sucks.

If hit, this will be a decisive strike by Iran.

If you are talking about tweets quoting Iranian officials saying they will target Israeli nuclear facilities, then those are mostly likely fake posts.
