Iran just want to humble Isreal.
That is what I see in this scenario.
They want to rubbish isreal's invisibility.
The core of isreal bragging right and bullying.
Also, by hitting isreal regularly with their missiles, it is de-marketing the highly over-hyped and extremely expensive weapons.
The qataris and Saudis rely on these weapons alot.
They spend billions on yearly basis on US security protect, guarantee and constant weapon supply like F-fighter jets to wade off threats from countries like Iran.
Saudi even have around 200 plus F-series fighter jets.
Seeing isreal been banged regularly despite all the best ADs in the world there is sending a big fear and concern in the heart of the Saudis, Qataris and Jordanians.
They now know all the expensive junks they have at hand won't save them from Iran.
They are just in-between.
Support US to eliminate the Iran threat and all their oil fields burn, pressure US not to go in and the Iran regional threat keeps lurking in the corner.
I saw somewhere the Saudis are egging Netanyahu to get rid of Khamenei. In public they criticise Israel but privately they would be glad to be rid of theocrats in Iran.

Lecture us how many wars US fought and won. From its humiliation in Vietnam by ragtag communist militias to its defeat by goat herders in Afghanistan and to Trump's capitulation after his initial chest beating about bombing Houthis into oblivion. Please tell us.

He has to be careful. His decision can light up the whole region.
Can/will the US be able to blow up Iran's nuclear facility? Absolutely Yes
But
The problem is that Iran will also blow up Isreal's own.
Atleast, we have seen they are struggling to neutralize 20-30 years ago missiles not to talk about modern ones.
So Yes, Iran will blow up Isreal's own and that will have a devastating action in the region.
The edge and fear isreal had in that region is the nuclear weapon, without it the Arab resistance forces would have long attacked her and over run her.
It is the Samson's Option that has still been keeping a lot abay to take a pound of their own flesh from Isreal's long years of bullying, expanding etc
Blowing Iran nuclear facility will make the region so so so messy, very very messy.
I pray trump is reasonable enough to know the reaction of his actions.
Iran has threatened no one's oil rigs would be standing if her own goes up in flame. She has shown she has the capacity.
Saudi oo, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait etc would all collect for been docile or codedly supporting the invaders.
It will be very very messy.
Iran na agbero ooo, no dey follow agbero fight oo if you be butty boy.
Them go destroy your fine boy.
He who is down and sanctioned to death for years needs fear but no fall
Israel already has nuclear bombs A triad. Submarines, Jet fighters and Ballistic missiles.
Iran has the golden offer according to Trump. Invite the IAEA to shut down every centrifuge and cart off the enriched uranium avd Israel will stop attacking it
Iran only needs to stop enrichment, they can use nuclear fuel to generate power . They also need to stop ballistic missiles production.

I have a feeling Iran is reducing their barrage of missile for when the war becomes all out.

They will need missile for US bases after they entered the war rather than they firing everything at Israel when the major war is even yet to start.

Iran even has underground missile production complexes they are working days and night to replenish their stock not to talk of the stockpiles that have not been used o. Iran is so big that you can't even use airstrikes to win a war with them. Iran has been preparing for this for decades all contingencies have been planned and catered for.

Just to add to the list, the US defeated the japs in the Pacific in ww2

The US also liberated Kuwait from the Iraqis

Go check out Nato military involvement, the US did the heavy lifting, providing the highest ration of men and materials.

That is obvious.

But trust the chihuahua to misrepresent it as they have to keep up appearances.
The Iran-Israel war was over on Day 3.
Israel failed to and has admitted it cannot achieve its primary war objective.
The nuclear sites will remain operational even if they continue to attack for 2 years.
That is a loss.

All everyone is waiting for is the main event.
Iran-NATO. We all know the likes of UK, France, Germany will join in some capacity.
Iran recognizes this challenge will be orders of magnitude harder and is being responsible about attrition of their stockpile.

⚡Low-res satellite images show Qatar’s Al-Udeid Air Base nearly empty, with aircraft parking areas cleared.

U.S., UK, and Qatari jets appear to have been relocated over fears of possible Iranian strikes.

IRAN ANNOUNCED THAT THE ISRAELI AIR DEFENSE ARE DISMANTLED NOW!
Now the way is free for bigger strikes, According to Iran miliitary spokenperson.


I think Trump is doubting his mind
One day he’s calling for negotiations, the next he demands total surrender, and then he switches to vague theatrics, hinting that “anything could happen.”
Trump did not rule out a change of power in Iran, saying that "anything" could happen.
He said he has not yet made a final decision on the Iranian problem
He said he does not consider the destruction of the Fordow uranium enrichment center a mandatory condition for a deal with Iran.
He noted that the door to negotiations with Iran is still open, although a deal on the Iranian nuclear program is now "more difficult than it was before."

this thread is quite comical lol

people use emotion and feeling to analyze and give opinions, there is a reason why being battle tested gives you a 10x advantage irrespective of what you represent.

like CDS said if sahel falls Nigeria is in trouble isis are battle tested, from the 1948 war till date Israel Armed forces are battle tested, do you know the amount of precision you need to fight an urban warfare?

i diggress
take Liberia for example it was brutal and cases of rapes were recorded Hamas invading Israel recorded cases of rape... a military that can control their sexual urge in war time are extremely discipline it is common knowledge about the 3w weakness within armed forces.

back to topic:
why do you think of the popular saying that it is expensive to train a soldier?
no supper power will ever play defense, because it is extremely expensive and difficult, yet Israel survived several attacks, and history let us know it wasn't because they lack intelligence a bout imminent attack, but was because they showed retrains.

take egypt as a key sturdy, they disseminated it's airforce which resulted in a quick victory... imagine being attacked by six nations and all of them returning like a dog that lost a fight with it's tails between it's tail... that's the country you think Iran can win lol

people that have been defending their teritory since 1948 lol.... goodluck

What you just described is a known propaganda tactic called “cult-framing,” which itself is part of a larger propaganda technique called “demonizing the enemy.” They do it to create a us vs. them scenario. They, the good guys vs. the bad guy plus his military assets.

So, they say things like “Saddam’s army,” “Gaddafi’s forces,” “Assad’s Syria,” and “Putin’s war” so that their supporters associate that element with the person being mentioned and view them as a single entity.

This also whittles the element, say the army, down to a bunch of mindless dudes who are under Saddam’s control and do his bidding. Anyone who supports the removal of Saddam will definitely support the killing of his “army” and won’t see it as anything.

At the same time, it helps to disassociate the current element from the previous one. Take for instance, “Nazi Germany” and “Imperial Japan.” Those countries are their allies today and they want to disassociate them from their criminal past. So, they tag names to those past so that we think of them as different entities.

Talk to a person about the atrocities of Germany or Japan during WWII and they will quickly pass it off as the “Nazis” or “Japanese empire.” As for me, I refer to “Nazi Germany” as Germany, and you should too.

Many of the descendants of the Nazis are the same ones ruling Germany today. Many of the Nazi officers even formed the core of the German officers in NATO.

One, Adolf Heusinger, who was a high-ranking member of Hitler’s inner circle, and even became the overall head of the so-called Nazi German army at one point, later went on to become the Chairman of the NATO military committee.

NO EVIDENCE OF IRAN HAVING NUCLEAR WEAPONS ACCORDING TO IAEA

The Head of The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA):

"On the basis of our own evaluations, we came to the conclusion that we could not affirm that there is any systematic effort in Iran to manufacture a nuclear weapon"
(June 18, 2025)



This IAEA report ohh Trump see ohh before your ego push you to something you regret

I thought I was the only one who noticed it.

The attack from within by these Mossad sleeper cells was the main reason why Israel was scoring points in attacks against Iran within Iran, after which they claim it's direct attacks from IDF fighter jets and cruise missiles. Of course, they do attack directly from the air, but with very little success to show for it, compared to when the Iranians attacked directly. Now that these cells are being busted, they are calling for the US to enter the fray. They wouldn't be calling big daddy if things are truly going their way.
Iran is doing a very good job with whittling down on those guys. I am very surprised that they can be this effective at catching spies. Their only mistake is not doing this early enough. They should have started clamping down on them long before now. The number of Mossad spies in that country is just too much.
