If Iran likes, they should believe such. I just dey happy for these new sets of leaders. No negotiations, no discussions. Just tit for tat and collective punishment.

That is the way forward. I'm sure the current ones having been gnashing their teeth in anger with the way the previous leaders had been dealing with Usreal.

The gulf countries are all in on this attack and Iran is right to continue striking them.

Theatrics. They attacked to guage Iran's ability to respond to such critical attacks. Now that they know Iran can very much still strike whatever infrastructure they deem appropriate to take out, they're trying to backtrack. The same scenario occurred last week. Israel bombed Iran's oil and when Iran paid back in kind, USA played dumb and 'reined' Israel back to order. They 100% work together

Stoplying:
You're too polite with him

I kind of understand why he wants us to move there. It's just not convinient for most of us here

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇮🇷 President Trump wants no more strikes on Iranian energy facilities after Israel attacked a key gas field, WSJ reports.

Message passed. Iran should hit some more energy sites though. By the way, why aren't our NVB showing us Iranian missile launch stats anymore?

And more Tears

Like I said Earlier,
Tears and Confused EXPLANATIONS will Fill this page today.

My People , The Children of ISRAEL has SILENCED Noise Making TERRORISTS, Supporters and Sympathizers.

Imagine anyone interacting with 30 other users like this. Never. @seun please allow us to discuss this war in peace. The Special Military Operation will continue getting discussed as the days go by.

Alamkiir:
It's not that easy sir, and Iam sure you know that. We can read news their if there's any, but to start discussions their it's another level entirely. The attachment is not their. Our discussion of this current Iran war didn't just start when the war started, it's started long ago before anyone can even predicted that it will happen. It connect to weapon and battle field discussions that we have been having since forever. We can't just jump to the other thread like that

You have said it all. You can't just dismiss all of the great input people have dropped here and tell us to go and interact with people who can call us terrorists with zero repercussions from your end.

Seun:
Can we please transfer the Iran War discussions to this thread below?

https://www.nairaland.com/8636131/iran-war-us-israel-megathread

I'd rather leave nairaland than to be forced to exchange words with anyone there. As sane as this thread is, I have blocked over 5 users. Get rid of the extremists there and maybe we might give it a chance

Appleyard:
LordAdam16, you were right. They're set to go all in on Kharg island.

Bodybags will look like horror movies to Americans.

I doubt they'll do that. It would be a kill zone

IDF caught posting another 2025 strike as new

⚡Trump:

Iran has long been known as a Master of Media Manipulation and Public Relations.

They are Militarily ineffective and weak, but are really good at “feeding” the very appreciative Fake News Media false information.

He has lost it completely. Hegseth also had his breakdown last night. It's hilarious.

Seun:

You have to understand that this is one of the very few threads that is not overridden by pro-Israel/US extremists on this forum. Nobody here would want to engage people whose only take on geopolitics is that Israel and USA cannot do wrong even if they invade all countries on the planet or kill all brown people.

To be fair, even the pro-US people here are by a large degree more reasonable than 90% of the pro US Nairalanders that we see on other threads. Moreover, you or your moderators tend to pander to their bias to the point of posting fake news on front page.

It is also on this same thread that we dicussed Pakistan-Afghanistan conflict, India-Pakistan conflict, Saudi-Arabia-UAE, Thailand-Cambodia, etc. The Iran-US war is currently the latest and I'm sure that in a couple of weeks, the Special Military Operation will dominate the thread again.

To avoid further 'collisions,' US refueling tankers are now avoiding Iraqi airspace

Mikasaobi:
Dude I thought you said Iran will be destroyed, keep praying for destruction, forget the ceasefire it won’t happen.

They've all forgotten their predictions. One of them said Iran will not fire a single missile after day 1. Another said they wouldn't make it to Monday (that's 2 days). Another NVB has stopped making noise about Iranian launchers. Their heroes in Washington are even more confused.

Iran has launched an attack on Israel every 90 minutes since last night - Israeli Channel 12

But... But... We took out all of their launchers on day 7. Una go get sense by force

WriterrNg:
⚡The US announces it will release 172 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

Oil prices are still pushing higher after the news.

It won't do much sef

Mikasaobi:
In my opinion this is a peer to peer conflict, the USA has no advantage over Iran and they are losing.

I've been dismissing speculations about Netanyahu but now I'm not so sure. Something must have happened. He could be sick or just messing with our heads

LordAdam16:
pedolf is finished

e b dey seize china-bound oil tankers for venezuela, body dey sweet am

iran don use plier hold him crown jewels, e don dey beg xi to save am

xi wen don already get exclusive access to the strait of hormuz

nobody is coming to save the pdf

everybody dey watch him spectacular crash out in 8K

-Lord

I just don't understand what goes on when he's having meetings with his advisers. I refuse to believe they're all morons.

On a side note, I believe our NVBs now understand why Iran is a near-peer of USA despite being significantly less powerful. Trump was spitting fire just last night and now look at him shamelessly begging the world to help him fight.

LordAdam16:
🤣😂😀

you go pass the interview for new press secretary if them fire the current olodos

-Lord

That would be great. At least you will get more thought-out fiction 😂😂😂

I've been saying to people that Trump miscalculated Iran but I was wrong. With this kind of maths, no calculation could have possibly taken place.

BREAKING: Five US refueling planes struck and damaged at Prince Sultan air base in Saudi Arabia, according to WSJ report.

They weren't struck. They simply caught fire due to the harsh weather.

23jerryking:
Okay..... This is getting interesting 🤔

I'm trying to find out what military target he is talking about. Reports are saying he did not attack the main oil infrastructure there although there's plenty of them there. It looks like a warning shot. Trump is a naive man

stanluiz:
It doesn't mean anything. Unless you will show me where India publicly declare war on Iran or Support US and Israel war on Iran.

Modi visit to netayahu was just diplomatic visits between two head of states. Nothing special about it.

Trump and Xi will meet next month April, does it mean that Xi is now supporting trump war on Iran ? No.

Even during the Russia Ukraine war. Biden and Xi visited each other many times, even Biden hosted Xi, a Russia ally on America. Does it mean that Xi is in support of whatever America is doing in Ukraine ? No.

India is just staying neutral. Iran should allow Indian ship to pass to the straight of hurmuz.

Nope. India ought to have condemned the unprovoked attack on Iran. Per Twitter accounts, one of the sunken Iranian ships had participated in an Indian naval exercise and was on its way back home when USA struck. They neither condemned USA nor tried to assist the drowninh Iranian officers.

If Iran must specifically ensure that some ships are not allowed passage, India should be among them.

Breaking news: European countries including France have opened talks with Tehran seeking to negotiate a deal to guarantee safe passage for their ships through the Strait of Hormuz, according to people briefed on the efforts.

Iran will give them a very long and pointy middle finger

[b]JUST IN: Iran moved its uranium into a mountain. The biggest conventional bomb on Earth cannot reach it.

Fox News reported on 11th March, citing US intelligence, that Iran has relocated its remaining enriched uranium stockpile to the facility known as Pickaxe Mountain, Kūh-e Kolang Gaz Lā, a tunnel complex buried 80 to 100 metres deep in granite bedrock one mile south of Natanz. CSIS satellite imagery from February confirms accelerated construction: multiple tunnel portals, concrete sarcophagus shields over entrances, security walls, heavy machinery, and spoil piles indicating rapid interior expansion since the 2025 strikes destroyed Iran’s above-ground enrichment infrastructure.

The GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, the weapon that hit Parchin, weighs 30,000 pounds. It penetrates up to 200 feet of earth or 60 feet of reinforced concrete. Granite is neither earth nor concrete. It is igneous rock with a compressive strength that exceeds both. One hundred metres of granite is 328 feet. The GBU-57’s maximum earth penetration is 200 feet. The uranium sits 128 feet beyond the reach of the most powerful conventional weapon the United States possesses.

Fourteen GBU-57s were dropped on Iranian nuclear sites during Operation Midnight Hammer in 2025. The strikes destroyed centrifuge halls. They did not destroy the programme. They taught Iran where the ceiling was, and Iran built beneath it. Every bomb that hit Fordow and Natanz was a lesson in depth. Pickaxe Mountain is the final exam: a facility designed specifically to survive the weapon designed specifically to destroy it.

The IAEA estimated 440.9 kilograms of 60% enriched uranium before the war. After the strikes, Grossi assessed approximately 200 kilograms may remain. That material, seven to eleven nuclear weapons’ worth at one week’s further enrichment, is now inside a granite mountain that no bomb can penetrate and no inspector can enter because Iran has denied IAEA access to every site struck since 28 February.

The war’s existential minimum was defined by Defence Secretary Hegseth: no nukes. The nuclear infrastructure must be destroyed with or without regime change. The GBU-57 was the instrument. Pickaxe Mountain is the limit. The instrument has met a material it cannot defeat. The existential minimum has hit a ceiling of stone.

What remains is a decision the United States has never made in the nuclear age. The material cannot be destroyed from the air. It can only be reached through the door. Special forces insertion into a tunnel complex defended by IRGC units operating under the Mosaic Doctrine, with sealed orders, inside a country whose 31 autonomous commands have been firing continuously for fourteen days. The Pentagon is weighing this option. Fox’s Jesse Watters reported it as a “near-impenetrable site requiring potential special forces insertion.” The language is careful. The implication is not.

A ground operation to seize enriched uranium from a granite bunker inside hostile territory would be the most consequential special forces mission since Abbottabad. Except Abbottabad was one compound, one target, one night. Pickaxe Mountain is a tunnel system buried under 100 metres of rock, defended by a military that cannot surrender because its commander is a wounded man issuing orders from a hospital bed through a television anchor, and its doctrine was designed to fight without him.

The bomb cannot reach it. The inspectors cannot enter it. The Supreme Leader will not open it. The material inside is seven days from becoming a weapon. And the mountain does not negotiate.[/b]

This came from the writer our lawyer tried to steal from. Ive been through his posts and it turns out that he tries to be neutral although he believes too much US propaganda

Iranian Revolutionary Guard:

- The aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln suffered major damage after being targeted by missiles and drones.

- The American aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln is now retreating towards America after being targeted.

Remember that non-combat related fire on this aircraft carrier earlier?

Initial reports of a downed refueling aircraft in Iraq

Confirmed. A KC135 has been shot down.

I'm sure they will blame it on a stray bird or something.

Bloomberg:

The number of Iranian missile launchers has held steady after a week of unrelenting airstrikes, according to Israeli and western estimates

Nah, you have finished all their launchers. I've said to all that care to listen that the reduced salvos is merely a strategy. Launching 300 missiles per day for weeks is a surefire way of rapidly disarming themselves. The massive launches have served their purpose.
