Vic2023:I said this in the previous two or three pages. Turkey given their current leverage over Syria will act as. a spoiler and probably make this even more costly for Israel. Netanyahoo needs to be replaced before he will do more harm than good to Israel. |
Vic2023:Where are those folks that said Iran would fight alone if a major war breaks out in the region. Na when shit happn you go no say even those when they house the US in the region hated them like mad. Nothing speaks louder than ideological hatred. |
shoodboi2:Its probably the type that was used to destroy the defense ministry building, which, allegedly, also destroyed a THAAD and David Sling AD systems located to protect the building. Way too fast for those AD interceptors. |
[quote author=mikael11 post=135751747]Wow missile direct Hit 🎯😯 so fast are hypersonic missiles. No doubt. This is getting scarier. |
pansophist: I beg to differ. Planes from China and Thailand landed a few hours ago in Iran, and I'm sure they're not carrying papers and pure water. People are too quick to write off Iran vis-a-vis its influence, strategic importance, and its geopolitical relationships, particularly in the sphere of support it can attract during a major crisis such as this. Iran is a member of the SCO, and a founding member of BRICS, which China and Russia are part of. Ordinarily, you would expect support and sympathy to come to them, hence the Chinese support, howbeit covert at the moment. Yesterday, Russia stated categorically that if the Israeli western backers take part in direct attacks against Iran, Russia would immediately get involve by providing unlimited and unprecedented support for Iran. Those in the know in the west understand what that means. For now, everything is still low key, but if things escalate further, rest assured Iran won't be left to suffer on its own. |
nigeriansamurai:Exactly. But if the back and forth exchanges continue, it won't be long that some of the regional players would get involved. For the first time in many years, Erdogan has the opportunity to practically rob a bit of his anger against Israel on their face, and that easily come via Syria. Turkey lifted planes into the sky following the IDF strikes on Iran. Deliberate miscalculations could be conjured in the form of engagements in the air and a chain reactions could easily follow thereafter. While there is restraints now, all hell could break loose soon if this current exchange continues. |
dermmy:Stop waisting your time replying purely sentimental and religiously biased posts. |
basilico:Civilians died from the first Israeli hit. Stop painting sentimental pictures. Israel is a renown population killers. So if civilians also died from the Iranian reprisal attacks, one can call it pure coincidence because just as Israel claimed precision strike, Iran also precisely targeted military targets like the ministry of defense building and nuclear research center. You're just cherry-picking. |
LordAdam16:It's game on, brother. The warhawks in Mossad and Washington got their way after all. However, Trump can still pull the rug off their feet if he doesn't allow emotions to cloud his remaining sense of judgement. |
Alamkiir:When you watch it closely, the IDF saw the missile coming. Then they fired two interceptors to take it out. Unfortunately, the interceptors have not even reached anywhere when the incoming Iranian missile streak past them like lightening and struck the target with such devastating precision. The interceptors ended up intercepting empty air. Watching these video right now tells me that, Israel cannot continue these charade for long. They would soon sue for peace via the US and Russia, because, it is now clear that they have nothing currently in their arsenals that can curtail the sheer speed of the Iranian incoming missiles. Iran have not even deployed its container-converted missile carrier ships yet. |
FXtrader2025:It's not today we knew that the F-35 is just another scam on the innocent American tax payer. An overpriced asset the US forces down the throat of its allies. |
[quote author=mikael11 post=135740052]More direct Hit looks like the Iron Dome is offline today. Or probably waiting for Trump's Golden Dome to debut so it can brag about it's quality again. |
WriteerNg:Something is telling me that a major player in the region might act as a spoiler against Israeli jets crossing from Syrian airspace on their way to Iraq to launch attacks against Iran. The suspect is Turkey that is now the major backers of the HTS government in Syria. There is so much bubble that could ignite a regional war right now. |
WriteerNg:So many people easily wrote off Iran. The fact is, this is a great regional player that wouldn't go down without inflicting significant losses and damages on the enemy. If Iran make good it's threat of closing the Strait of Hormuz, the country would significantly up the ante against the western backers of the murderer Netanyahoo, and call the US bluff regarding its threat to respond with nuclear force. A few hours ago, Putin gave an open speech stating that, any direct western involvement in offensive operations against Tehran would immediately trigger a response from Russia in the form of unprecedented support for Iran that would not be limited on any scale. That Russian warning has raised eyebrows in the west. Something is telling me, we might soon witness tactical nukes being moved to Iran as a deterrent. This shit is getting real with each passing day. |
WriteerNg:Fact: they could only shoot down slow moving drones and missiles that crawls like chameleon, not the Fatah type of ballistic and hypersonic missiles. Iran is very advanced in missile technology, and this is what I have been saying since the last two months. |
WriteerNg:Oil producing nations already salivating. The way prices will skyrocket if that threat is carried out would be unprecedented. |
mikael11:That has helped to reduced the flight time and provide safer flight path. I'm afraid we are witnessing the start of a new regional war. This shit will soon break open. |
Akaekpuchionwa2:Exactly what I do. No time to waste on reading senseless and religiously biased posts devoid of even the least of shame and decency. |
mikael11:Basilico is probably angry that Iran could muster the courage to strike back at Israel. Hence, he is picking holes in the retaliatory strikes when it's not even over yet to afford one better clarity in assessing the true damage. |
basilico:What double standard are you spouting out of your mouth? You really think and hope Iran has no capability to strike back and cause severe damage? How many civilians have Iran killed at the moment when the waves of reprisals are not even over yet that you're here counting nunbers? The thousands of women and children the murderer Netanyahoo killed in Gaza are military targets too, I guess. When you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. That's exactly what Israel per Netanyahoo is getting back in return. |
seunny4lif:The disparity is just too obvious. Yet some believe that Russia has lost more in personnel compared to Ukraine. |
So it turns out that it wasn't an SU-35 but an F-16 that disappeared from the skies over the Sumy region. No wonder the Ukros were hurriedly trying to spin the story to suit their side. Rumors making the rounds is that the pilot might have defected with the plane to Russia. |
WriterrNg:How dare you! Russia has 1 million casualties and is losing the war by 'retreating' forward while Ukraine has 600,000 casualties and is winning the war taking more Territories by 'advancing' backwards. ![]() How convenient for the zombified mids in here. ![]() |
basilico:That's is a black lie. The story now has three versions, which are we supposed to believe?. ![]() |
ariesbull:Russian chief lead negotiator, Medinsky, told them during the first round of the meeting in Istanbul: accept these regional claims now, or next time, it would be 8. Now. Dnepro has been added to the list and it's being decimated. Sumy Oblast is on the menu also, as Russia's forces are inches away from encircling it. Russia doesn't boast; they act. History will be very harsh on Zelensky as the comedian who killed and shrunk Ukraine. |
WritterNg:Corroborating Carson's earlier confession. |
DystopianMuse:Lmao. Ukronazi's F-16 relic that is always stationed thousands of miles away from the Frontlines and it's own borders shot down a SU-35 300kms away with a missile that range 160km max. ![]() The Ghost of Kiev is back. ![]() |
Zelensky is now realizing that webs from its infamous Operation Spider Web cannot deter or tame a bear. Thanks to that operation, a strategic shift in Russian tactics against Ukraine has occurred. Russia forces, for the first time, has entered into Dnepro region with huge forces. Civilians are currently evacuating affected areas as the Russians advanced in a lightning fast operation. Sadly, by the time this conflict ends, Ukraine would have lost almost half of its territory. Thanks to a comedian cum president. Russia don't want war, but once it starts, they finish! Adieu Ukraine. |
LordAdam16:If those cities joins in, all hell would break lose. |
Medvedev: They were all warned—the green lice and their patrons. Those who refuse to acknowledge the realities of war at the negotiating table will face new realities on the battleground. Our Armed Forces have launched an offensive in the Dnepropetrovsk region. The shagreen skin of the Banderite state continues to shrink. The great delousing continues. |
LordAdam16:Man, the intensity is on the rise. Rumors is that Russia is preparing the ground for the main strike that is to follow after this phase: Oreshnik. |
Michael Flynn said something about the recent Ukrainian drone attack in Russia. Even those that matters are in fear while the comedian Elensky is proud of his folly. https://xcancel.com/GenFlynn/status/1929297294358139364 General Mike Flynn @GenFlynn ATTENTION! So, it appears Zelenskyy gave the go ahead to attack parked Russian nuclear capable bombers without informing @realDonaldTrump (if true that our President was not consulted nor informed, this isn’t simply a breach of protocol. It’s a geopolitical insult and a warning sign. If Ukraine is willing to conduct strikes with strategic consequences without notifying the White House, we are no longer allies with coordination issues—we are co-belligerents flying blind). Also given Senator “warmonger” Lindsey Graham’s and Senator “Da Nang Dick” Blumenthal’s recent visit, this attack could appear as though it was sanctioned. I pray the Russians have better intelligence than that. IMHO, these two don’t have the sense or common sense to pull something like this off (there will have to be denials though). FYI, Those bombers that were hit HAVE to be out in full view due to nuclear treaty obligations. Zelenskyy took advantage of that. For instance, they appear to have hidden the drones in containers and were driven on trucks near the airbase. Smart use of deception (see photos below). However, imagine any one of our big bomber bases having the exact same thing done to them. Very costly U.S. Strategic Bombers can be taken out in the same way by anyone with access to inexpensive drones, delivery trucks, explosives, and a bit of technical knowledge (not good and new tactics will now have to be developed). People, and especially world leaders, need to realize the global implications to such an operation as Ukraine just pulled off. Russia will respond. Action, reaction, counteraction. Those are the shifting tides of warfare. This wasn’t a bold action, it was brash. Ukraine’s short-term win could be the world’s long-term loss. Despite what is a complete mess right now in Europe, there are still solutions to achieving peace. They are narrowing however and time, as it often does, becomes an enemy instead of a useful friend. @PeteHegseth @DNIGabbard @JDVance @marcorubio |
