The burning building of the Iranian national television (after the Israeli air force strike)... As a result, 18 people were killed. Iran has already announced that in response it will strike Israeli journalists in their studios. |

Allthelight:I hope they do, Jewish drones are operating in Iran at the this very moment, hunting the sources of Iranian launches. Mossad agents are the key backbone of this entire operation, without them launching there drones from inside Iran the war would have easily turn sour for the Jews |

Allthelight:Your statement presumes that an aircraft or drone needs to be above a location in order to spy over that location. This is not so. Aircrafts used for gathering intelligence are actually developed to look sideways. So an aircraft faraway in a neighboring country can comfortably spy on Iran. It's the same way airplanes flying over NATO's territory keep spying on Russian troops in Ukraine, without entering Ukraine themselves. Then there are the satellites. And camera phones. And CCTVs. And even something as usual as the reverse cameras on cars. You can never know what your enemy has backdoor access to and uses to spy on you. The thing with wars like these is that an excited person will always always always take videos and photos of the missiles launching and the platform from which they are launched. Such people may do it out of goodwill without an intent to harm. But that single action has serious consequences for Iran due to the intelligence value it holds for Israel. |

obedience4:Many people just assume that global power projection lies in military ability forgetting the fact that economic prosperity is a core factor. This is a fact that has played out clearly in the case of Russia. While it was busy building and testing irrelevant nuclear weapons, showing off itself as a threat or should i say monster, US was busy making friends from former Soviet countries, enabling their economy and at the same time pledging assurance. Now, Russia has turned itself to a monster, a big daddy that nobody wants to make friends with and lost the trust of former Soviet countries like Czech Republic, Finland, Sweden and more all because it wanted to challenge the US. At the end, it is still behind the US even in military power because with the way US operates, it enabled it to pool the most intelligent brains (that it's own citizens may not have) from anywhere in the world who willingly contribute their ideas to its cause, be it militarily, economically or anything. China was smarter and as we all can see, it it fast forging economic ties across the world, the only drawback being the lack of trust it is yet to gain and the perceived substandard of its product compared to western ones. When we go back a little in time, Nokia (a Finnish company) was enjoying undisputed market share in the telecom industry. Tecno came and tried but failed initially. But it's adoption of Android OS before Nokia could blink enabled it to integrate WhatsApp into its phones which gave a double knockout blow to both BlackBerry and Nokia. Secondly, as can be seen in the recent trade war, China now has the ability to at least withstand tariffs from America although it may not be able to do it forever but at least, it is able to make investors have a second thought. This was not the case 20 years ago. On the military side, I don't rate China at all when compared to the US. They may have formidable weapons, but as it has been proven several times, big machines rarely change the course of war. Chinese military aren't battle tested compared to their American counterparts. For instance, a single shot by a sniper can change the course of a war better than heavy bombings will do. Let's use Ukraine as an example. The abysmal performance of Russia's ground soldiers is what has been stalling it. Aerial bombardments are only as good as the ground forces are good enough to hold the ground. Without good ground forces, the enemy returns to where was bombed, create new shelters and it goes on and on. As stated above, it will be suicidal for China to start wasting resources and the little edge it is gaining on US on economically irrelevant countries like Iran because of the low purchasing power of its citizens. Except it resorts to a doomsday scenario, China will neber forsake the US and western markets for anywhere else. The reason is simple, the money is in US and the West. In conclusion, the US hegemony is not one that is going to be threatened anytime soon at least in terms of military power. The most plausible way to challenge the US hegemony is though the economic aspect which China is exploring. Donald Trump has been fast to identify that area and has or is about to leave Ukraine to the hands of Europe so that US can continue to have money to influence "other friends." Thanks.. |

Procashtips:Be calming down before you give yourself high BP. Iran is no match for the isrealis...fact..!!

Vl3ly:Why are they so interested in holding talks with Iran? The same talks you sabotaged so you can use that to justify assassinations and start a war you cannot finish. You are not ready 😛 |
| Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by shoodboi2: 6:54pm On Jun 16, 2025 |
Vl3ly:That's how it should be. Aura for aura. Civilians for civilains. Hospitals for hospitals. Journalists for journalists. How we got to this point where Israel has normalized the killing of civilians with their supporters here even using it to assess their "military victory" needs to be studied. Their supporters even brag about the death of civilians as if it's what war is about. Such sick fellows. Israel murdered civilians on an industrial scale in Gaza. It killed lots of civilians in the West Bank. It , did same in Syria and Lebanon, and now wants to do it in Iran. Let's see how well that will go. |

WriterrNg:I’m having a feeling that Trump doesn’t like Putin. All these hug he’s giving Russia allegedly because of Putin is a trap to make Russia trust them enough and then eventually stab them seriously in the back when the feel it’s time. |
| Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by shoodboi2: 7:03pm On Jun 16, 2025 |
Rilwayne001:He doesn't. It's all about money and power. But unlike in the past, Putin knows his game too well now and doesn't even rate him that much. |

shoodboi2:drone and planes gives more reliable data... The IAF is currently hitting moving vehicles... With suicide drones because they control the sky.. this happened in Syria and Lebanon too. They will target any AD system that target their planes. The only thing helping Iran is their hyper sonic missiles... Israel is finding hard to deal with |

Netanyahu angry at Americans for not wanting to go to war for him: "Look, I understand America First. I don't understand America Dead," - Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu tells ABC News. Today, it's Tel Aviv. Tomorrow, it's New York. Look, I understand 'America First'. I don't understand 'America Dead'." |

seunny4lif:He started it and he should go it alone. Americans are watching I believe they are tired of Middle East adventurism. The protest and unrest that will shake America the Vietnam war era will be child's play compared to it. |

There seems to be too much talking and bragging from both sides to a point that one might think theyre into show business rather than war.. Your missiles and weapons should do the talking on whatever matter you wish to express yourself and if you can't, just surrender and beg for your life. Simple!!. |
