iranian media is reporting that deliveries of the j-10c will commence next year
minimum of 3 squadrons
chinese deliveries occur under the radar

british media is reporting that iran has begun development of a bunker-busting ballistic missile
since the news is from a western source, it is unclear if this is an oreshnik analog or iran is working on a purpose-built ballistic missile with an MOP payload
the oreshnik is an IRBM
depending on what they're going for, they might want to use their latest 3-stage ICBM with hypersonic propulsion
these will not use TELs
they'll be deployed in mountain missile silos

typically the nuclear powers either develop jet-fired ordinances or tactical nukes for this
but iran wants to develop stand-off conventional surface-fired penetrator
no one has done this before
godspeed to them, because the physics of making that happen is a tall order

LordAdam16:
satanyahu is trapped

he should have accepted the ceasefire with hez
but he got greedy and believed his own BS about reshaping the ME
so he escalated against hez and started threatening every resistance group with the same treatment

now he can't back down
the lessons from that miscalculation with hez is why he has not attempted to bomb yemen like he has been doing in syria and lebanon
nothing is physically stopping iaf jets from going to yemen to bomb ansarullah security targets or even in iraq

unfortunately for him, hez is the flagship resistance paramilitary force and iran needs to be on israel's border
iran is expanding its arsenal not for deterrence but for usage
so even if israel cannot afford to take on iran and the entire axis, they also cannot afford to wait as lambs waiting for slaughter
they've been begging persia non-stop since the end of the 12d war to come to some sort of understanding
all of the pleas fell on deaf ears
persia wants blood

if you read the news reports, this is framed as israel going to the us seeking to inflict a final blow on iran's ability to mount an effective attack
that is the western propaganda spin like they use in ukraine
the reality is that they're going to the us because the resistance axis is gearing up to end israel's status as a regional power
and only the us can conceivably do anything about it
so the question now is how many american lives the trump administration is willing to sacrifice to thwart this objective of the resistance axis

I understand your views.

The geopolitical theatre in the region right now is still foggy. It's hard to pinpoint where the next push would go or come from.

Notwithstanding, there are some glaring certainties now:

1. The 12-D war created a noose and trapped Israel in it. Netanyahu wanted to incite regime change in Tehran, while drawing the U.S. into a wider war. He failed on both counts, and now Iran is stronger, its citizens more united with one another, and behind their government.

2. Against this backdrop, it is guaranteed that, any new Israeli attack against Iran would be met with devastating retaliation.

3. But, because the IDF is designed to keep on manufacturing crisis and fighting wars, the Yahoo boy in Tel Aviv has a lot of options to chose from and keep his prime ministerial position going.

4. Thus, a major confrontation between Israel and one of Hezbollah, Iraqi para militias or Iran itself is poise to happen in the first two months of 2026. Like you tightly said, they can't afford to live in lamba.

5. Iran has gained more respect in the region courtesy of the successes recorded in the 12-D war. Hence, I will not be surprise to see other states that were hardliners realigning with Tehran.

As for Netanyahoo, he will have to keep escalating in a bid to remain relevant. But, his ability to escalate and stretch things further also depends on Donald Trump's willingness to tow that line.

The idiot Trumpster will be meeting the yahooboy on Monday. It is left for him to agree or disagree with the IDF full attack mode against Iran with full US support. Trump is a Zionist, like most Republicans and democrats are. He loves fame and money. So, either way, he and Netanyahoo are trapped in this war circle.

As for Iran, it believes itself is facing the most dangerous threat ever in its history. But persia has set the precedent. Never will any shot fired against it go unanswered. Russian supplies are pouring in like water. Missile sites have also increased in numbers and stockpiles in so much that Tel Aviv is rattled badly, fearing a possible Iranian preemptive strike.

However way it goes, 2026 is already looking bleak. With JD Vance recently saying he fears EU nukes could fall into the hands of ISIS, which is just another way of informing the people that a potential false flag op is in the offing, one can only hope for the best while expecting the worst.

yesterday, the chinese released the first footage of routine test firing of its YJ-20 hypersonic anti-ship cruise missile
state media also published footage of simulated naval conflict operations in the caribbean

everyone is getting ready for a showdown

Mikasaobi:
You exposed his foolishness and all he did was laugh like a clown. Sometimes I wonder if we’re communicating with bots, the ignorance is astounding.

Confidently ignorant is the word. An ignoramus, so to say.

Even without critical thinking, he should know that the engine of a single-stage missile like the tomahawk will land with the missile. So if the missile lands at a site and doesn't explode, the warhead and other internal components, including the engine will also be there, intact. This is basic common sense.

He roped himself when he shared those schematics, if not, he would have started another round of argument to claim the stuff beside the boy's leg is not the engine. I won't be surprised if he calls it a pumping machine engine. It's something he can do.

He looks down on his own that he doesn't believe his fellow countryman can reverse engineer a missile. Enter Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok and see naija boys building drones in their backyard. They are even here on NL.

The fact that he chose a fellow like the so-called lawyer as his friend on this thread tells a lot about him. Birds of the same feather really flock together.

Gerrard59:
I agree with everything you have written, including by bryght4u and as I can recall, I think I brought up the issue of Kwara experiencing an attack soon, ditto Katsina. The Baruten and Patigi LGAs are major soybean-producing areas in Kwara. Chinese investors are there to cultivate en-masse soybeans for eventual export.

Inasmuch as David Hundeyin can be irrational at times, I tend to agree with his tweets which oppose US intervention because in reality, it tends to be worse. Benue, Zamfara and Plateau are the most affected areas, so why Sokoto?

In all of this, the entire blame lies on Northern elites. I really don't understand why they keep mum while their region is being destroyed. These are people who control the military apparatus of the country and have dominated politics for a long time. So, why can't they fight a meance which directly affects them?

Ow. It was you who predicted the soybean issue back then. Yep. You did raise concerns then and we are seeing it happen.

As for those northern elites, their saving grace is the super poor and uneducated youths they riddled their territory with. It's quite odd that everything we never expected can ever happen in the north is happening there today.

In the early to mid 2000s, I and my siblings used to joke about certain states that we almost never hear about. Adamawa, Taraba, and most especially Borno were three states we joked with. You don't even hear about them in the news then. It was almost as if they didn't exist.

Today, even a primary school student knows Borno very well. Most will even mention three to five towns there. All because of what? Terrorism and Boko haram.

Northern elites are cheating their people. Ours do do it, too but not at the rate at which these northern elites do theirs. They're horrible people. And now, even they can't sleep comfortably with both eyes shut anymore.

Alamkiir:
Well said....
The annoying thing is; if it's Nigeria army that shoots those missiles and it landed in a hotel, come and see insult, Nigeria is useless, Nigeria is this and that. But now that its US everyone seems to have scientific explanation on why the bomb landed in Kwara.

If it was the Nigerian government, we wouldn't hear the last of it. The cho cho cho would have been loud. Funny enough, the folks in the same camp praising the bombing today will be the ones to condemn it. But for now, they will suffer from selective blindness and look the other way.

Scorpio99:
ISIS is just a tool you say, right? Can you tell me why such tools do not exist in other religions?

About Islam, please don't teach me what I know. A person you know very well in the afternoon does not need to be verified by a hurricane lamp in the night.

A religion I was brought up in, I know the Qur'an in and out and I perfectly understand and speak Arabic as well. Don't teach me what I know please. I am speaking from what I know not what the US is saying about anybody.

I will tell you one thing. Do not let your petty grudges against the US blind you to the extent of not seeing what is right in your front.

Go to the part I bolded in your statement. Do you want me to start bringing out specific examples from the Qur'an where it is explicitly stated that xtians and Jews are to be killed if they do not pay what is called "Jizya'? a very wicked tax on people of other faith who don't accept Islam but are under islamic rule? Should I bring out specific agreements that the prophet of Islam himself broke with other tribes of Mecca after he gained the upper hand? Those tribes made agreements with him not to fight but as soon as he gained the upper hand, he broke the agreements and killed them all.

I don't want to engage in religious argument tonight but please argue only what you know, not just what you read on some blog.

ISLAM IS A VERY VERY TERRIBLE RELIGION.

When the prophet left Mecca for Medina, he met the Banu Quraya ( and two other Jewish tribe) and a few Christians in Medina, they received him wholeheartedly.
How the Jews were expelled from the Arabic peninsula is a story for another day.

One of the Jewish tribe in Medina sided with the enemy but the Jewish tribe claimed they didn't have an agreement with the prophet.
Did the prophet break treaties with the Meccans ? Yes
Technically, he claimed he was commanded by Allah to do so.
Just as Allah instructed him to take his adopted son's wife after catching a glimpse of her unclothedness. This is one of the reasons adoption was abolished in Islam.
Quran 33:37
So when Zayd had accomplished what he would of her, then We gave her in marriage to thee, so that there should not be any fault in the believers, touching the wives of their adopted son, when they had accomplished what they would of them; and God's commandment must be performed.

One way or the other, Islam is pure Arabic culture and practices.

As a Muslim the Quran oppsoses association with Christians, Jews ans other non-believers.
Quran 3:28
Believers should not take disbelievers as guardians instead of the believers—and whoever does so will have nothing to hope for from Allah—unless it is a precaution against their tyranny. And Allah warns you about Himself. And to Allah is the final return

The sword verse
Quran 9:5
But once the Sacred Months have passed, kill the polytheists ˹who violated their treaties˺ wherever you find them,1 capture them, besiege them, and lie in wait for them on every way. But if they repent, perform prayers, and pay alms-tax, then set them free. Indeed, Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful

You're not allowed to attend funeral of non believers even if they are your parents
9:84
And do not ever offer ˹funeral˺ prayers for any of their dead, nor stand by their grave ˹at burial˺, for they have lost faith in Allah and His Messenger and died rebellious.

Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) believed that Allah (God) revealed his marriage to Aisha through dreams, where an angel showed her to him as his future wife, indicating divine intent for their union.
Aisha was six at this time and the prophet of Allah was at least 50.

Isn't Allah great ?

Zaporizhzhia NPP
has been under Russian control since 2022. It was built by the Soviet Union near the city of Enerhodar, on the southern shore of the Kakhovka Reservoir on the Dnieper river.

⚡Iranian hackers have hacked Netanyahu's chief of staff's phone and released a private video with the Russian ambassador

The Iranian hacker group Hanẓala says to have hacked Netanyahu's chief of staff's phone

Iran now has access to his contacts, Netanyahu's internal security information, and other classified info.

There are also videos of foriegn ambassadors in Israel and they have posted video of the Russian ambassador who says "Russia and Israel are friends"

I don't see any point in this if they're not unaliving the MF'ers.

Impressive..👏👏👏 I had my doubts about President Lai Ching-te.. I thought he was just a chinese hardliner without balls!! Seems i was wrong, Great to see the Taiwanese building up her military.The Taiwanese military porcupine doctrine is one to watch..

Waiting for the chinese reaction, he no go pass the normal "we are going to destroy you" rumblings of her foreign ministry.. Las las two days of military drills around the island and life goes on

Like I predicted some time ago.. The Chinese reaction to the US multi billion dollar military sales to Taiwan no go pass military drills!!!

The US will continue to arm Taiwan to the teeth while China like her contemporary Russia will continue to wail and draw imaginary red lines...

If he sure for Xi you invade na!!, every weapon sale military drills, US official visits Taiwan military drills... You no dey tire Xi??..

All these small small regional players thinking they are the top dogs..

That would make an excellent counter-value weapon. Truth be told, I don't like the civilian casualties ratio between Iran and Israel in the last war. A country that has no problem killing 100 innocents to get to one target deserves to have a couple of its shelters collapsing on some flesh here and there. Maybe that would make them adjust their evil doctrine.

your third point is a luxury they've taken for granted that is beginning to disappear
the resistance axis is just about done with localized fires
so a confrontation in early 2026, while seemingly inevitable, will deviate from the typical

on us participation, the us does not have infinite appetite for hot conflict against foes that can hit back
besides, israel is as needy as ukraine but does not have the high pain tolerance of ukraine
ukraine has lost more than a million men and 20% of their territory, they'll fight until the spigot is turned off
israel asked for us intervention within 4 days

satanyahu sold the yankees a false bill of goods and he'll be very surprised by how his latest demands are received
americans dying in the me because israel decided to start sh*t it can't finish is not a domestic winning position
and the gulf arabs don't hate iran enough to sacrifice their economy and leisurely lifestyle for hot conflicts that repeat every 3-6 months
the yemen war effectively ended when saudi oil terminals were struck
so the resistance axis can turn the pain dial for all of the genocidal wart's must-have partners until they're forced to come to terms with their diminished position in the region

knowing satanyahu, he'll stubbornly move forward because of his demented belief that when shtf, america will always show up regardless of whatever reservations they may have
well, the americans will show up. but they'll bring gifts he wouldn't like
because at the end of the day, the entire israeli (tel aviv) stock exchange is less than 2% of the market cap of nvidia

the last war was a learning experience for everyone
iran could have increased their kill count at any time like they did on the last day when that entire israeli family was killed in their shelter
not all shelters are below ground.
many are just hardened rooms in above-ground buildings that will be reduced to rubble by your standard ballistic missile
and since most male israelis are idf conscripts, they can use the israeli script against them
one of the casualties in that family that was wiped out was an idf reserve soldier
if the idf/mossad can kill scientists and whichever family members and strangers are in the immediate vicinity, then iran can repay the favor against weekend warriors and their families

that said, the 12d war was primarily about iran exhausting its target bank
so you had a few showings for public consumption like when that entire street was turned to gaza
but they mostly focused on strategic assets, both public and secret like the refinery, MoD building, weizmann, nevatim base and you best believe there were unreported casualties

the bunker-busting ballistic missile is specifically designed to give them freedom of action to take out any high value target anywhere in that cursed country regardless of where they hole up
it isn't being designed to kill as many civvies in underground shelters even though there could be one or two oopsies

ultimately, while the mullahs chant death to israel
the persians will grudgingly accept a palestine state and a pacifist israel that understands that any misbehavior will lead to harsh consequences
but the extremists currently in charge of israel do not want to grant palestine a state and certainly do not want to be told by foe or friend that they cannot kill with impunity and that they must abandon greater israel plans
that's the crux of this israel-iran conflict

🚨 Breaking News : Ukraine Probes Major Security Lapse as Soldiers Abandon Command Post in Huliaipole, Leaving Sensitive Intel for Russian Forces🚨

In a stunning development amid the ongoing conflict, Ukrainian authorities have launched an urgent investigation after troops from a Territorial Defense Forces battalion reportedly fled their command post in Huliaipole, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, without destroying or securing classified documents, operational maps, computers, and other sensitive equipment. The incident, captured in a video released by Russian media around December 25, 2025, shows Russian servicemen entering the intact facility and accessing the materials, potentially exposing Ukrainian unit structures and operations in the region.

According to Ukrainian officials, including Southern Defense Forces spokesperson Vladyslav Voloshyn, the hasty retreat occurred during intense close-quarters fighting, with delayed withdrawal orders from higher command contributing to the chaos. The post belonged to the 1st Battalion of the 106th Territorial Defense Brigade, and the breach has raised serious concerns about tactical vulnerabilities and resource depletion in the area, where fierce street battles continue.

This comes at a critical time as Russian forces push into Huliaipole's center with small assault groups, though Ukrainian defenses hold firm in key sectors. The video's authenticity and circumstances are under scrutiny, but multiple reports confirm the abandonment inflicted significant intelligence losses.

Israel is a small country and has many shelters all over the country to shield its people from missile attacks coupled with that, when a missile is launched from anywhere in the Middle East and it's destined for Israel American satellites pick them up immediately and inform the Israelis even before that missile enters Israeli airspace giving Israelis enough time to run to shelters, bunkers for safety.
