Namaster:
EVERYDAY the PDFile threatens to hit Iran with FORCE they have NEVER seen before and Iran is STILL standing.

It's getting STALE at this point.

Iran keeps ABSORBING their "NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN" force and then HITTING back.

Despite the fact that they have THREE Aircraft Carriers, several DESTROYERS, over 20,000 personnel and the ENTIRE MILITARY of ILLsrael...

Despite the fact that the Iranians have had ALL their leaders ASSASSINATED...

Iran is STILL touching each and every TARGET like Pastor Chris at a healing crusade.

It's just MARVELOUS!
Trump's fresh attack on 1st and 2nd April destroyed

All their steel mine
Their commercial bridge
Their medical facilities
And more oil factories.

Israel also killed 40 more of their leaders on April 2nd

Total crippling of their economy, this is what Trump warned them.

And They shot one old plane down, celebration upon celebration.

There is more than one month that Trump claimed that the Iran military have been completly obliterated and yet more
powerfull Iranian missiles are raining on Israel. Trump also claimed one month ago that the Iranian Air-defense system have
been completely obliterated, yet more planes are shot down by the Iranians
Iranian missiles on Israel resulted in minimal causuties.

But Trump's attack on 1st and 2nd April destroyed

All their steel mine
Their commercial bridge
Their medical facilities
And more oil reverses.

Total crippling of their economy, this is what Trump warned them.

About 40% of Russian oil production destroyed

https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2026/4/3/ukraine-slows-enemy-advances-liberates-land-drains-russias-war-chest


Ukraine has successfully struck approximately 24 to 30 Russian oil refineries since the start of the full-scale invasion, with a massive escalation in 2024 and 2025.

As of April 2026, reports indicate that while the exact number fluctuates due to ongoing repairs and repeated strikes, the campaign has systematically targeted nearly all of Russia's primary refining infrastructure.

## Refinery Impact and Statistics

* Total Facilities Hit: Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) reported striking nearly 160 oil production and refining facilities in 2025 alone, including refineries, terminals, and pumping stations.

* Capacity Losses: At various peaks in 2025 and 2026, Ukrainian drone strikes have knocked out 40% of Russia's total oil refining and export capacity.


* Recent Record: In March 2026, Ukraine targeted at least 10 major oil facilities in a single month, including the strategic Kirishi and Yaroslavl refineries.



## Strategic Objectives
The campaign, often referred to as "kinetic sanctions," aims to:

* Defund the Military: Oil and gas revenue accounts for a vast portion of Russia's defense budget.

* Fuel Shortages: Strikes have caused localized gasoline crises and forced Russia to ban petrol exports periodically to stabilize domestic prices.


* Supply Chain Disruption: By targeting specific units (like atmospheric distillation towers), Ukraine forces Russia to source rare Western-made spare parts that are currently restricted by sanction.

No one is protesting in Iran but since the war began we have seen protests in the U.S and Israel. Another in Israel today.
Through out 2025, there has been multiple protests in Iran against their government.

You think asian Nations want to fight Iran? grin grin grin
Most of them have 'No Choice', America promised them SAFETY and built Bases on their Soil.
When Shyte happened, America evacuated its people sharp-sharp and left them to their fate, just to assist only Israel. grin grin
I call them the EXPENDABLES.

They have asked America to stop attacking Iran from their Soil or through their Airspace, America said: I WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO, WHAT CAN YOU DO? shocked shocked

Zelensky is just desperate for American attention, which is solely on defending Israel right now, that is why he is making all these rabid noises all over the place.
America even asked him to return the Patriot Missiles that the EU bought for him, from America..., they want to go and install it in Israel.

Zelensky don enter One Chance Bus
huh shocked shocked grin grin
Sorry to burst your bubble,
About 60 to 70% of Ukrainian defense is now built by them. (Ukraine made drones destroyed 30 refineries in Russia, not US drones)

And funny enough UK and France still has 3 trillion and about 2 trillion dollars worth of assets ceased from Russia still funding the war.


It has been ceased Russian monney funding the war.

Moreover, Finland, Poland, and Germany has pledged heavy support (This nations have defeated Russia multiple times)

That's why Putin has a tired stance, no Ukrainian cities taken since the start of this year, and Russia is already failing economically.

Russia aim is for them not to join NATO. And bring Russia enemies close by.

Did they join??

Only then will I consider they are winning
Putin was lying when he said that.


Russia closest neighborhoods Poland and Hungary Joined NATO in 1999, Putin did nothing.

(Because Poland has defeated Russia twice)


Now Finland (another Russia close neighbors) applied for NATO membership 2022, while Putin was attacking Ukraine.
(Ukraine has never applied to NATO, Zelensky just made a statement)


Finland because full NATO member in 2023
Why didn't Putin attack them.
(Finland has defeated Russia many times)






Plus without France and UK, Russia won't exist now.

Russia was defeated and taken by the Ottoman empire, for a brief moment there was no Russia. France and UK took it upon themselves to Free Russia.


So they're not his enemies, Putin just wanted Ukraine's Resources, Which they signed 60% for America's protection, So he's not getting that.


After all this, Ukraine will still join NATO

nurudeen181:
You don't know and you're asking but with the way you're asking, it's more like you don't need an answer. Why do you think Ukraine is asking to support the US and Saudi with expertise to curb Iranian drones, because over the time, they have now mastered the art of curbing the drones, this is the way iran has now mastered the flight partern of the US aircraft and are now bringing them down. It's a necessary sacrifice, you have the tech but how to use it requires training, this is the second war iran is fighting and the first to fight against F-35, oooh you think Russia and others would have done better at first...
You can't master flight patterns you can't see.

Ukraine didn't master "curbing Russian drones" they has better drones.
(Ukrainian drones are the only ones that can shot a flying jet fighter).

Iran might have gotten lucky shooting down an old jet. But the facts remains that that same day they lost:

Their steel companies
Their electric plants
Their major commercial bridge to the capital
And more oil reverses.
Plus one more bunker (with probably politicans in it(

So, what did they master?

This is just the beginning.

Iran will be sent to the stone age.


US will resume massive bombing of Iran's power stations and infrastructures to force the cowardly Iran terrorist regime officials and military commanders hiding in bunkers to come outside as their backup batteries via lithium batteries will start running out of energy.


We shall see
Their commanders are cowards hiding in bunkers and school, yet they're still dieing.

Iran has a terrorist government who kills it's own people. 6500 protesters killed for no reason.

Even Putin, when challenged with this last year, vowed that he could "recruit 1m more man"

Price of fuel in Iran 15,000 Iranian Rial (lest than #1500) Why: domestic product.

Price of iPhone in Iran 1,319,728,950 Iranian Rial (1billion).

Price of anything not created in Iran (which is almost everything) always in millions and billions.

In fact, more true is dump is not bombing Iran. He is just paying Iranians to bomb themselves.
If Iran is really "shooting down US jets" why can't they shot down the ones that:

Killed their Supreme leader
Killed most their political leaders
Killed most of their military leaders
Destroyed their oil factories
Destroyed their steel factories
Destroyed their commercial bridge.

All the jet that destroyed these things they couldn't shot down, it's fancy non existent jets they're shooting down.

-- Satellite images have revealed burning Iranian ships in an Iranian military port near the Strait of Hormuz, damage to Iranian military bases, and destruction at various air bases across the Gulf region.

-- A notable airstrike destroyed the B1 suspension bridge in Karaj, Iran, which was a significant infrastructure loss.

I believe it will interest you to know the USA does not even have a speed train while China has numerous.

American hardware’s are overpriced and not reliable.

Fighting a nation been under sanctions for over 4 decades and losing so much! Over $35 billion gone and the whole scrap metals put together called aircraft carriers fled the scene- due to laundry fire 🤣😂🤣😂

The US world influence will never remain the same post war. I believe you seeing the lines being drawn.

That’s Iran’s goal!
Many times US Aircraft carrier don't fire back, it's only for serious destruction.

Calculate the destruction been done to Iran "leaders dead, steel companies gone, oil reverse destroyed, economy crippled"


That's the reality of facing America. That's why Russia won't face them, and China pull back from Taiwan.

Iran protesting for regime change like they don’t do in Nigeria. Iran still has a better standard of living than Nigeria but western media told you they are suffering.

Same Iran churns out more world acknowledged scientists and engineers than Nigeria but you believe they are suffering?

I ran has been under sanctions for over decades. It’s normal for a sect to revolt and bend due to the hardship, but that does not mean MAJORITY are anti government.

The US did not exist when Persian civilization started, and should tell you how far they have gone!

The F35 was only hyped by Hollywood movies and words of mouth. Iran already has the tech to take it down! It’s way overpriced. Should cost more that a 2022 Toyota Corolla
Cuba is sanctioned by US which means other nations may did anything they want with it, but not US Allies. That's what Sanction means. That's why Russia still bought from Iran despite US sanction.
