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

[Adam Barfy]

What’s even the point having a couple SU35s? Chinese planes are better and they can supply way more. Problem is that US will block the sale, and that is if they even agree to sell in the first place.

What they gonna do? They threatened to sanction anyone selling to Iran.

China just proved it’s immune to US sanctions. TACO Trump crumbled in a week.

Iranian airspace is ours, US and Israel. Or did you not got that memo?

For now….

 

[Adam Barfy]

I fear, India might take a lesson from Israel and launch a decapitation strike against GHQ and civilian leadership.

India tho

For now….

And how long is that 'now'? Who is going to help reconstitute the air force? Russia? China? Neither of them have done anything other than sit in their capitals printing out meaningless statements and Russia is the worse off with trying to subdue Ukraine. So 'now' could be one month or one yr or even one decade.

Am ex USAF, F-111 (Cold War) then F-16 (Desert Storm). I am all about airpower, buddy. I got a hard-on whenever I got in an F-16 COCKpit. My two favorite places are the USAF National Museum and the Wright Brothers memorial. You lose airspace sovereignty? You are next to nothing.

Iran one would hope will learn from the lax security, underestimating their enemy. They need to think 30 years ahead and not be thinking short term moves. IMO they need to forge a strategic relationship with either the US or China. In the mideast and beyond, these are the camps most countries will need to fall into.

They have a long term strategic partnership with China.
They are a full member of BRICS+ and the SCO.

What more do you want?

well if you looked at the satellite images from that briefing you'd see two identical craters (6 MOPs each) and in total 14 MOP's were dropped 12 on fordo and 2 on Natanz.

What he is trying to insinuate is that the attacks never happened.

Oh no. I’m so scared

Oh no. I’m so scared

After what happened in Iran, you should be. But it is fine if you are not because we want you to be fine.

There's still no credible evidence that Israeli operated out of Azerbaijani territory, at least with the consent of the Azerbaijani government.

There were videos from Iranian citizens living along the Iranian-Azerbaijan border during the first few days of the conflict stating they saw drones enter through the airspace.

I wouldn't rule it out.

“Tehran is beautiful from above, I hope to visit one day,” says Israeli pilot after Iran strike.

“We’ve spent years preparing for an Iran operation. You always keep a sliver of hope that maybe we’ll never need it, that the threat can be removed some other way," A. said.

Its really not a big deal....special operations routinely deploy and operate in enemy land.....

Pakistan routinely operates inside India and infact we have been doing it since 1965 war, Kargil, Afghanistan war, Kashmir rountinely and so on....

Have we been shuttling two C-130 loads worth of men and equipment into kashmir and back? If true that is awesome news. During 65 war, PAF did drop SSG paratroopers against IAF airfields in an ill fated operation. Majority were routed and captured with little or no success.

This looked almost like Eagle Claw "lite" operation.

I dont know what you mean by whipping boy, but their intervention, along with Russia, was absolutely instrumental in saving the regime from collapse early on and helped extend the cilvil war a decade longer than it should've been, and caused hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths, destruction and fracturing of our country. This couldn't have happened without their interventions. So no, its not wrongfully being blamed in its role, it was pivotal. Only Turkey and US had as meaningful impact as the war dragged on, it became everyone playground in later years, at great cost to us.

you mention that but you fail to mention they intervened after anybody else intervened

Sure, but I very much prefer hard evidence in this case.

Eye witnesses can be unreliable when it comes to military matters.
