The "Belligerent Bastard Children of Yahweh in Tel Aviv" have issued instructions to their "stooge goys" in Washington and London to start another kosher war.

These whores always do as they’re told by their Zionist masters in Tel Aviv. They have been escalating step by step as instructed leading inevitably towards war.

Economic strangulation is an act of war.

Seizing the Iranian tanker off Gibraltar is an act of war.

Encroaching on Iranian Airspace with your useless "Stealthy Drone" is an act of war.

Conducting cyber warfare against Iran is an act of war.

Sponsoring MEK terror against Iran is an act of war.

Not that they have been particularly coy or surreptitious about this. There have been threats to “obliterate” Iran both from Tel Aviv and the Jewnited Snakes of Amerika virtually on a daily basis for the past 20 years.

Trying to pretend otherwise or spout hot air about “diplomacy” or “restraint” is an exercise in futility. You don’t wait for a rattlesnake to strike.

It’s not a question of if there will be a war, the war has already begun. It actually began quite a while ago. That’s the reality of it.

Ever since General Wesley Clark (Retired 4-Star US Army General & Supreme Allied Commander of NATO) revealed the plan to take out 7 Countries in the Middle East & North Afrika beginning with Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan & ending with Iran, the war-mongering bastards have been cooking up series of false-flag just to justify the invasion of Iran like they did to Iraq.

In 2007, Dick Cheney, Amerikan Vice President in the Bush Administration, wanted to "stage" an attack on an Amerikan warship - using Amerikan personnel dressed as Iranians in small vessels resembling Iranian patrol boats - to justify a war with Iran.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMLFlOqt2nk

Guess what? grin They did it in 2019 by attacking two "Japanese Tankers" in the Iranian Strait of Hormuz while the Japanese PM was in Tehran having a coffee with the Iranian leadership. grin

And when the Amerikan bastards saw that the entire world did not buy the false-flag, they activated "Plan B" - Flying a completely "Useless Drone" in Stealth Mode to encroach on Iranian Airspace - and the $220 Million flying coffin was shot down by an outdated Air Defense System. grin

If not that Trump and his fellow perfumed-military Generals are bereft of a fully functioning human brains, why would Iran decide to attack two “Japan-related” tankers while the Japanese head of state is in their country? grin

One thing is certain; This war that is itching Amerika in her belly, is coming - and will be very expensive in body bags going back to Amerikan cities, ships and aircraft littering the sea bed and land, all around the Gulf and up to the Mediterranean and Caspian - leading to the eventual collapse of the United Snakes of Amerikan. grin

I trust the EU and some other Amerikan "eye-service" allies to declare neutrality when the bombs start flying. grin

The Arab tribes of Iraq, from 2003 onwards gave the Amerikan occupation forces in Iraq hell. 14 out of the total 16 battalions of the Amerikan military were effectively bogged down with no end in sight.

They were chasing insurgents who chose where and when to hit, armored columns were shredded by daisy chained IED’s and the children of Saddam Hussein (Iraqi snipers) were instilling terror into the hearts of Coalition troops…. grin

Needless to say, all the uploaded videos of IED attacks, and all of many sniper videos were mysteriously deleted from YouTube. grin

Syria is already organizing the Arab tribes, … their final declaration was ominous for any occupiers. They promised to evict the Amerikan military and expel lackey Kurds. Interestingly enough, even Iraqi tribal leaders showed up at the last big conference in Syria.

Amerikan, British, French and SDF Kurds will bleed volumes in (Northern) Syria. The fighting will be close and personal. (Because) Arab and Iranian fighters have learned how to negate air power.

It's an old Soviet tactic, used especially at Stalingrad, nicknamed by the Soviets "to grab and hug the enemy". When Air Forces cannot engage effectively, equivalent of losing your queen in chess right at the start.

In 2006, using this tactic to neutralise Israeli air power, 3000 Hezbollah fighters stopped 75,000 Israeli IDF troops and two armored battalions. 44 out of the 400 Israeli Merkava MBT’s were totally destroyed. In essence, the Israeli forces were not even able to hold even the smallest of Lebanese border villages. grin

Iranian "General Salami" recently made a trip to Syria, and said ” There is a whole Islamic Army ready to engage in total war against arrogant powers".

Iran has brought in about 40-50 thousand Afghan volunteers; there are also Chechen volunteers in their thousands (who routed the Ukrainian military in 2015 in the Donbass, who fight much like Hezbollah, and are hard lethal in artillery. Just ask the Ukies) grin

There are tens of thousands of hardcore Iranian Basij volunteers, and the Basij number around 17 million in Iran, so there will be no shortage of volunteers. grin

There are Pakistani’s, Malaysians, Indonesians, along with many thousands of former terrorists who have been re-educated, who now know who the real enemy is, and are ready to go. grin

This is why I laugh when I see teenagers on Nairaland whose brain are yet to fully develop - in their ignorance, rush to comment on Geo-political issues which even their fathers at home know absolutely nothing about, except digesting whatever they watch on CNN & BBC (no offense meant). grin

Times have changed and this will be a different war. Their (Amerika, UK and France) small bases and limited troops in the Middle East will quickly be overrun and taken prisoner if they are lucky enough not to be annihilated. grin

I trust Mother Russia to condemn the warring parties and suing for peace with her mouth while covertly supplying Iran with her sophisticated & state-of-the-art military gears that will take Amerika back to the stone age. grin

And then, we have China, who regards Pakistan and the Iran-Iraq-Syria-Lebanon (“Arch of Stability”) as an integral, vital and indispensable part of its crucial and gargantuan OBR Silk Roads.

The Chinese have already linked up Pakistan and Iran, soon they will link up Iraq and Syria. The Chinese are also building a massive port in Lebanon, and plan on building another massive port in Yemen as soon as the Houthi’s prevail. grin

China looks forward to "US&Co" being expelled from the region. and will supply the forces of the "Axis of Resistance" with all the cheap, yet very lethal weapons needed for this most important endeavor. grin

This long-awaited war will come inevitably and consume all the children of Satan in Washington, London, Tel Aviv, Paris & Riyadh.
What an in depth knowledge and analysis on the the politics of warfare and it's international dimension. I bow.

Oga, if the US are allowed to unleash the full power of their military on Iran, Iran will be wiped off the face of the earth. Iran is no way near the military capacity of the US. Even China and Russia will do everything possible to avoid any military confrontation with the US talk less of small rats like Iran.

We all know what happened in the late 80s just before the Iraq-Iran war, when Iran revolutionary army began a campaign of seizing and destroying foreign ships in the straits. Iran’s Navy was incapacitated by the US, Navy in the region.

The truth is that we all want someone tough to stand against the US but it comes at a great price. You may not know what the Iranian people are going through but their economy is the worst it has ever been in modern history, and this is just the beginning of more sanctions. We may see it as illegal or unfair, but it is a game of power and resistance. How long you are able to resist, and the nature of your opposition determines you survival. One thing is certain, there won’t be an all out war in the region but the pressure will continue even if Iran is willing to negotiate. Trump has a disdain for the leadership and Iran’s leadership hates and doesn’t trust the Trump admin. It’s a complex world in a funny circle.

[/b] Pls tell me more about the battle shocked shocked. Is it in the Bible?

According to the Book of Revelation Armageddon is the prophesied location of a gathering of armies for a battle during the end times, variously interpreted as either a literal or a symbolic location. The term is also used in a generic sense to refer to any end of the world scenario.

Rev 16:14,16-19:
"For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. … And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armaged´don. And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath."

The City in Question is Israel and in my opinion, Babylon is the USA (I could be wrong though).

Quit writing like a mentally deranged person, you concluded your tales that Iranians are suffering because you read on western backed information outlets. Secondly, saying muslims are supporting Iran against the US while appreciating the condemnation of Chrisitans against US speaks nothing but hypocrisy and lies on your side. Saudi Arabia, UAE and US are on the same page, why are the so called muslims supporting Iran against UAE and Saudi Arabia?

Akathriel:
The "Belligerent Bastard Children of Yahweh in Tel Aviv" have issued instructions to their "stooge goys" in Washington and London to start another kosher war.

These whores always do as they’re told by their Zionist masters in Tel Aviv. They have been escalating step by step as instructed leading inevitably towards war.

Economic strangulation is an act of war.

Seizing the Iranian tanker off Gibraltar is an act of war.

Encroaching on Iranian Airspace with your useless "Stealthy Drone" is an act of war.

Conducting cyber warfare against Iran is an act of war.

Sponsoring MEK terror against Iran is an act of war.

Not that they have been particularly coy or surreptitious about this. There have been threats to “obliterate” Iran both from Tel Aviv and the Jewnited Snakes of Amerika virtually on a daily basis for the past 20 years.

Trying to pretend otherwise or spout hot air about “diplomacy” or “restraint” is an exercise in futility. You don’t wait for a rattlesnake to strike.

It’s not a question of if there will be a war, the war has already begun. It actually began quite a while ago. That’s the reality of it.

Ever since General Wesley Clark (Retired 4-Star US Army General & Supreme Allied Commander of NATO) revealed the plan to take out 7 Countries in the Middle East & North Afrika beginning with Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan & ending with Iran, the war-mongering bastards have been cooking up series of false-flag just to justify the invasion of Iran like they did to Iraq.

In 2007, Dick Cheney, Amerikan Vice President in the Bush Administration, wanted to "stage" an attack on an Amerikan warship - using Amerikan personnel dressed as Iranians in small vessels resembling Iranian patrol boats - to justify a war with Iran.

Guess what? grin They did it in 2019 by attacking two "Japanese Tankers" in the Iranian Strait of Hormuz while the Japanese PM was in Tehran having a coffee with the Iranian leadership. grin

And when the Amerikan bastards saw that the entire world did not buy the false-flag, they activated "Plan B" - Flying a completely "Useless Drone" in Stealth Mode to encroach on Iranian Airspace - and the $220 Million flying coffin was shot down by an outdated Air Defense System. grin

If not that Trump and his fellow perfumed-military Generals are bereft of a fully functioning human brains, why would Iran decide to attack two “Japan-related” tankers while the Japanese head of state is in their country? grin

One thing is certain; This war that is itching Amerika in her belly, is coming - and will be very expensive in body bags going back to Amerikan cities, ships and aircraft littering the sea bed and land, all around the Gulf and up to the Mediterranean and Caspian - leading to the eventual collapse of the United Snakes of Amerikan. grin

I trust the EU and some other Amerikan "eye-service" allies to declare neutrality when the bombs start flying. grin

The Arab tribes of Iraq, from 2003 onwards gave the Amerikan occupation forces in Iraq hell. 14 out of the total 16 battalions of the Amerikan military were effectively bogged down with no end in sight.

They were chasing insurgents who chose where and when to hit, armored columns were shredded by daisy chained IED’s and the children of Saddam Hussein (Iraqi snipers) were instilling terror into the hearts of Coalition troops…. grin

Needless to say, all the uploaded videos of IED attacks, and all of many sniper videos were mysteriously deleted from YouTube. grin

Syria is already organizing the Arab tribes, … their final declaration was ominous for any occupiers. They promised to evict the Amerikan military and expel lackey Kurds. Interestingly enough, even Iraqi tribal leaders showed up at the last big conference in Syria.

Amerikan, British, French and SDF Kurds will bleed volumes in (Northern) Syria. The fighting will be close and personal. (Because) Arab and Iranian fighters have learned how to negate air power.

It's an old Soviet tactic, used especially at Stalingrad, nicknamed by the Soviets "to grab and hug the enemy". When Air Forces cannot engage effectively, equivalent of losing your queen in chess right at the start.

In 2006, using this tactic to neutralise Israeli air power, 3000 Hezbollah fighters stopped 75,000 Israeli IDF troops and two armored battalions. 44 out of the 400 Israeli Merkava MBT’s were totally destroyed. In essence, the Israeli forces were not even able to hold even the smallest of Lebanese border villages. grin

Iranian "General Salami" recently made a trip to Syria, and said ” There is a whole Islamic Army ready to engage in total war against arrogant powers".

Iran has brought in about 40-50 thousand Afghan volunteers; there are also Chechen volunteers in their thousands (who routed the Ukrainian military in 2015 in the Donbass, who fight much like Hezbollah, and are hard lethal in artillery. Just ask the Ukies) grin

There are tens of thousands of hardcore Iranian Basij volunteers, and the Basij number around 17 million in Iran, so there will be no shortage of volunteers. grin

There are Pakistani’s, Malaysians, Indonesians, along with many thousands of former terrorists who have been re-educated, who now know who the real enemy is, and are ready to go. grin

This is why I laugh when I see teenagers on Nairaland whose brain are yet to fully develop - in their ignorance, rush to comment on Geo-political issues which even their fathers at home know absolutely nothing about, except digesting whatever they watch on CNN & BBC (no offense meant). grin

Times have changed and this will be a different war. Their (Amerika, UK and France) small bases and limited troops in the Middle East will quickly be overrun and taken prisoner if they are lucky enough not to be annihilated. grin

I trust Mother Russia to condemn the warring parties and suing for peace with her mouth while covertly supplying Iran with her sophisticated & state-of-the-art military gears that will take Amerika back to the stone age. grin

And then, we have China, who regards Pakistan and the Iran-Iraq-Syria-Lebanon (“Arch of Stability”) as an integral, vital and indispensable part of its crucial and gargantuan OBR Silk Roads.

The Chinese have already linked up Pakistan and Iran, soon they will link up Iraq and Syria. The Chinese are also building a massive port in Lebanon, and plan on building another massive port in Yemen as soon as the Houthi’s prevail. grin

China looks forward to "US&Co" being expelled from the region. and will supply the forces of the "Axis of Resistance" with all the cheap, yet very lethal weapons needed for this most important endeavor. grin

This long-awaited war will come inevitably and consume all the children of Satan in Washington, London, Tel Aviv, Paris & Riyadh.

You can imagine the nonsense coming from so called "educated" people on this forum. I am really shocked at the level of ignorance of Nigerians, some times to come Nairaland dey tire me. This is just the same thing they were saying about how powerful Saddam and Gaddafi were until reality dawned on them when the real showdown began

Reading through your comments here, I can point you are the ignorant person here, go to other foreign forums like quora and read what American's gat to say about any possible conflict with Iran, they won't even say what you are here typing here, nobody here even said Iran is as powerful as US someone just said "Iran is way too powerful for anyone to toil with", meaning they have the strength to defend their territories as far as any Persian lives.

And stop comparing Saddam Hussein to Iran, Saddam was a bad commander, before the Americans attacked Iraq, Iraqis were tired of him and some of his bad decisions, so no much resistance from the people, he couldn't even defeat Iran during the Iran-Iraq war, despite Iran being weak, under heavy sanctions and had no military structure because they just came out of a revolution. Did I even mention that Iraq was very much dependent on the west for almost everything such as; weapons, spare parts, logistics, etc but Iran of today is self sufficient, they produce their own guns, missiles, aircraft (Thou inferior), submarines, advance SAM/air defense, advance radar etc. This they do despite being under tough sanctions for 40YEARS.

Libya/Gaddafi was no match to the west, they barely have any air defense, they aren't even self reliant when it comes to weapons, some sections of the country were tired of Gaddafi's rule, so US keyed into that. Iran is a different ball game entirely, the people are homogeneous, 90% shias and 80% Persians, they will fight to death than see a stranger invade their territory, during the Iran-Iraq war, when Saddam invaded Iran, the community bordering Iraq fought with bare hands till they got support from the central government and went as far as pushing the Iraqis forces back to Iraq, this they do despite being bombed with chemical weapons, every single male Iranians between the age of 18-70 volunteered to defend their territory.

Even within the region, Iran doesn't seem to garner much support, Russia and China that they are banking on will abandon them last last!!! The whole of Europe will always be pro US and UK, so Iran has to be really careful. All this gra gra would help them

You are making me laugh with this your post. Just humour me and answer this simple question, if The US were to attack Iran today, what do you think will be the outcome of that battle?
