The Islamic Republic has launched missiles at the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Jordan, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. It is targeting our Arab neighbors.

These violations of their sovereignty are unacceptable and we condemn them. But this is nothing new.

What tide has turned AGAINST US and ILLsrael?

Europe is mobilising their Military to support the war effort under the guise of reopening the Strait.

ILLsrael still receives MASSIVE delivery of weapons from Europe.

Apart from Russia and China, NO country has explicitly CONDEMNED the illegal attack on Iran.

Support on Social Media mean absolutely NOTHING if it doesn't translate to REAL LIFE.

As for Hegseth and his department, their WAR CRIMES were already copiously documented when they STARTED blowing up fishing boats in International Waters.

Iran does NOT need the sympathy of people who will NOT help.

Sympathy has done NOTHING for Gaza.
What Iran needs is BRUTAL DETERRENTS.

Europe will not aid America in its war against Iran. They don't need to mobilise. What are they mobilising? Spain, Italy, Germany, UK, France have categorically stated it's not their war. The know military force won't solve the Hormuz mess Trump created.

Will a preemptive attack cripple US/Israeli military capability from launching a retaliatory and more devastating strikes on Iran?

While I applaude Iran for causing damage to military and civilian installations but it neither has the intel nor bunker busting munitions that it can use to take out top Israeli government and military officials from their hideous like they did to Khamenei and other top officials in Iran.

Public opinion matters. If it does not matter why is both side investing in propaganda. Some U.S allies have kicked against joining US and refused to be dragged into another war like the lies they were told back in 2003 that led to the invasion of Iraq that claimed over a million lives in Iraq. They don't want to soil their hands anymore every country is guarding its reputation. We know they are US vassals but the fact that they haven't joined US so far means a lot other than UK who gave US access to its bases.

This is an unpopular war that has lowered Trump's approval rating and caused some upheavals in the US. If Iran had pulled the trigger first may be US allies would have seen a reason to join the war effort, maybe majority of Americans would have rallied behind Trump and Israel. Trump has not been able to convince Americans why it started the war he keeps jumping from one reason to another. From "Iran posed an imminent threat to America" which was debunked by his counterterrorism chief to Iran was about to build a bomb. How can Iran build a nuclear bomb when you had "obliterated" their nuclear program last year June a democrat official asked that question.

Iran does not even need to convince Starmer, Mers and co. Ordinary European and Americans who have TVs and internet in their homes can now see who the real devils are.

You guys should stop being emotional with this preemptive strike.a

Masterviolence:
Iran recently told the world that Emirati fighter jets took part in the bombing of Iran.


I don't need to tell you that these attacks carried out by the Emiratis include bombing of oil facilities, schools, hospitals etc.
And that's enough reason for Iran to lunch attacks on the UAE at any point in time.

This age of Nigeria citizens are too emotional and always trying to be morally correct.

There's a reason why Nigeria as a nation was more respected during the military regime than it is today. All thanks to emotional minds like you.

Iran did itself a big favour by not striking America or Israel in a preemptive strike before the war started even at that the Epstein PDFile team still triedp to build a case against Iran claiming they had intelligence that Iran was about to strike first and that what was made them struck until Trump's counter terrorism Chief Joe Kent came out to tell the world that it was a lie that Iran never posed any imminent threat to America and that it was Netanyahu and the Israeli lobby AIPAC that dragged America into this war.

Go online and see the massive support Iran received in the United States, Europe and elsewhere. There is a video online showing Americans hurling things at Pete Hegseth calling him war criminal and killer of school children in Iran. They even called their department of war the department of war crimes.

Americans were brainwashed for decades by their govt that Iran was the evil they are not buy that bullshit anymore. Their eyes have opened. If Iran had pulled the trigger first the tide would not have turned against U.S and Israel this way. If U.S and Israel resume hostilities Iran knows how to respond in kind but carrying out a preemptive strike should be avoided.

iran is applying the principle of security for all or security for none

if the us institutes a blockade on iranian oil exports
no one in the persian gulf will be able to export oil

they have actually been very reserved

a naval blockade is an act of war
this precedes modern international law

and the uae is easily the most hawkish gulf country that has been backing every maximalist position
and very vocally announcing they have played very specific roles in the epstein coalition's war effort

persia did not attack kuwait or bahrain
neither have been able to export a drop of oil
the uae has to join them
and if nothing changes, in a few weeks, saudi arabia will join the column
even iraq, an iranian vassal, is barely able to export, so why should the uae be exempt?

lastly, these epstein 🤡🤡 do not understand the concept of consequences
if they take an action and you let it slide
they escalate

not acting about the naval blockade
emboldened them to plan and announce their stillborn operation to reopen the strait by force

Russia offers better value at scale, and China being China is going for mass saturation.

The Dark Eagle is the most expensive hypersonic missile in the world, but produced at a rate that wouldn't survive a long war.

Appleyard:
I came to bury Iran, not to praise it....but even in death, the living must learn to give the dead their flowers. So, I have learned to respect Iran's choice and rules of engagement even in the face of an existential threat.

I understand the frustration among some of us here vis-a-vis why Iran is not striking first, especially with the current US military buildup across the ME and the so-called blockade of the strait by the US from a farther angle, which Aragchi called an act of war. But, the reality is that, Iran's refusal to strike first does not entail weakness, but a strategic strength of its own. Let's look at this from two main perspectives.



First, this is war and the stark realities that accompany it exceed any form of emotional overlays.

Both sides have suffered damages and irreparable losses. This current cessation of hostilities is a breather that Iran, particularly, needs. Just as the US is using this window to replenish its lost and destroyed assets in the region, Iran has not only restore some critical infrastructure but also regroup its ranks, refine tactics and strategies, and brought in new arsenals from China and Russia. The more it wait out the enemy's first strike, the better and stronger it preparations and strike back capabilities becomes.

Furthermore, while a resumption of fighting is now a foregone conclusion, barring a taco from Dumbo Trump, anything short of tactical nukes means the US will only end up repeating the same cycle of failures like we saw in the first round. On this note, Iran's decision to not strike first is a calculated strategy.

Moreover, a resumption of war does not serve Iran economically. Yes, this has become a war of necessity, but not of its own choice, but one that was forced on it by the enemy --- a dying empire desperately scrambling to stymied its economic rival (China) in hope of retaining its hegemony. Tehran needs to get past this stagnant stage in their economic life, fix the people's living standard. To do this requires money and stability. Hence, we see Iran currently seeking a permanent end to the war, not just some negotiated truce that will not guarantee no further fighting in the future.

Secondly, Iran's rule of engagement are based on stringent principles of legality and morality. By chosing not to strike preemptively, Tehran is showing the entire world that it does not intend to, has never been, and will not be the aggressor. Thus, should war restarts today, it would be the enemy that broke the peace and called for blood. This moral grandstanding enables Iran to retain and attract more support. It's the reason why the entire Internet was crawling with huge supports for Iran and hatred for USreal during the first round. Is the reason for the "no king" protest in the US, and protest in Israel. And it's part of the reasons why US European allies and even people within Trump's inner circle refused to support the US because Iran, as they said openly, was no direct and immediate threat to them.

What's more? I dare say this Iranian principle of engagement closely aligns with and reflect divine laws. Of course, I understand that some of us here will dismiss this notion as some religious nonsense but its not. There are unwritten, cosmic rules that governs the universe, and whether we believe it or not doesn't change the fact. Human conducts under specific circumstance, and certain intervals determine when and how these rules respond as an equalizing factor of justice and punishment.

For instance, when biblical Israel, Judah and Edom ganged up against the king of Moab and besieged it, he took his heir to the throne and offered him as a sacrifice on the city wall. That single act triggers a divine wrath against the invading forces and all of them went back from whence they came. (2 Kings 3:27).

What does that mean? It means a pure sacrifice, uncommon valour and high moral standing even from a heathen could yield unexpected and surprising results.

Today, what have we?

Iran is the ONLY country in this world that had the guts to punch back, knock off some teeth and tell the US empire and its Israel Zionist pet project to go hug a transformer. Iran is the ONLY country to stand up for the innocent people of Gaza and Lebanon on the battlefield. Iran paints its missiles with inscriptions like "for the victims of Epstein Island," "for the mothers and children of Gaza," and so on. That's pure moral grandstanding, and it's no surprise that the missiles are finding their targets everywhere in Israel. Their quality aside, the cosmic hand of the just can't help but guide them to their destination. The divine does not take sides with the aggressor. So, I elate that Iran continue on this pact of not attacking first.

Lastly, another strength that comes with Iran not attacking first is that it takes from the US and gives to Iran the strategic patience needed to win on the long haul.

The only chance Iran has to win against the US and Israel is a war of Attrition, which the current US army in the region isn't designed for. A preemptive strike will defeat that purpose. As Tehran waits, it keeps the enemy waiting as well, making guesses and forcing them to waste money in maintaining those huge ships and other assets in the region. This allows Iran to clarify the right approach, pinpoint their locations, reassign target codes and wait for the perfect moment to hit decisively should the need arise.

To conclude, while there is something to gain from a preemptive strike, Iran has more to gain from chosing not to strike first so long as they remain capable of hitting back harder.

Just my thoughts.

Exactly, the amount of support and smypathy Iran garnered internationally is unprecedented and Iran cannot afford to lose it at this point. Even Americans, Europeans and some Israelis that have been brainwashed to think Iran has always been the evil can now see the truth for themselves. The evidences are there on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram etc.

Iran must continue to demonstrate to the world that it is not the aggressor, so a preemptive strike is a NO NO.
