YOUR HEAD IS UPSIDE-DOWN.

IRAN WAS MINDING ITS BUSINESS, AND ISRAMERICA ATTACKED IT.

But somehow the murderous invaders "are right" in your UPSIDE-DOWN HEAD.
Minding their business by arming Hezbollah,Hamas and the houthis...

Or by trying to acquire nuclear weapons and killing it's innocent civilians for just protesting...

You lots are overt or covert terrorists...

The war is becoming serious. I think US underestimated Iran's military capabilities.
This isn’t war bro, it’s more like intervention. If the USA go to war with Iran, it will be far bloody than what we see today.

Iran on Saturday threatened for the first time to attack infrastructure of a neighboring country, urging people to evacuate three major ports in the United Arab Emirates that Tehran claimed were “legitimate targets” because the U.S. military used them for attacks.

The escalation sharpened global economic worries as tensions mount around the Strait of Hormuz, a route for about one-fifth of the world’s oil where shipping has effectively ground to a halt.

Some oil-loading operations have been suspended in the United Arab Emirates' Fujairah emirate, a major ‌bunkering hub and crude export terminal, after a drone attack and fire ⁠on Saturday, industry and trade sources said.

The suspension comes hours after the US attacked military targets on Iran's Kharg Island oil export terminal ‌and Iran's Revolutionary Guards responded by saying that US interests in the UAE - including ports, ⁠docks and military locations - were legitimate targets.

Iran has fired hundreds of missiles and drones at Gulf neighbors, saying it targets U.S. assets even as airports and oil facilities have been hit or threatened. America and Israel have struck thousands of targets across Iran during the war, now in its third week.


Iran says the US attacked from close to Dubai

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told MS NOW that the U.S. attacked Kharg Island and Abu Musa Island with low-range artillery from two locations in the UAE, Ras Al-Khaimah and a place “very close to Dubai,” calling that dangerous and saying Iran “will try to be careful not to attack any populated area” there.

Iran has fired hundreds of missiles and drones at Arab Gulf neighbors during the war, but it said it was targeting U.S. assets, even as hits or attempts were reported on civilian ones such as airports and oil fields.

On Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump said the U.S. “obliterated” military sites on Kharg Island, home to the main terminal handling Iran’s oil exports. He said oil infrastructure could be next if Tehran continues to interfere with ships’ passage through the Strait of Hormuz, where vessels are backed up and one-fifth of global oil supplies usually transit.

Iran’s parliamentary speaker has said strikes against the country’s oil infrastructure would provoke a new level of retaliation.

As global anxiety soars over oil prices and supplies, Trump said Saturday that he hopes China, France, Japan, South Korea, the U.K. and others send warships to keep the Strait of Hormuz “open and safe.” Britain in response said it was discussing with allies a “range of options” to secure shipping.


Iran repeats threat against US-linked oil assets

On Saturday, Iran’s joint military command reiterated its threat to attack U.S.-linked “oil, economic and energy infrastructures” in the region if the Islamic Republic’s oil infrastructure is hit.

Iran’s semiofficial Fars news agency said the Kharg Island strikes caused no damage to oil infrastructure. It said they targeted an air defense facility, a naval base, the airport control tower and an offshore oil company’s helicopter hangar.

U.S. Central Command said it destroyed naval mine storage facilities, missile storage bunkers and other military sites.

Israel earlier announced another wave of strikes in Iran targeting infrastructure, and said its air force had hit more than 200 targets in the last 24 hours, including missile launchers, defense systems and weapons production sites.

Go and read what a "legitimate target" is, in war, if you're wise but I guess, you won't.

Even with the simple explanation by Iran foreign minister and yet, you still not understand. truly education is not a scam. why will Iran neighbours tactically supporting US and Israel. Can't they behave like Spain who rejected America operating military base in their soil to launch attack on Iran.
Sometimes, I try to get into their minds to understand their ways of reasoning and understanding things but it's not working and I can't relate.

If you get to meet most of these people here in person, you'd be embarrassed at yourself for wasting your time in replying them.

What do you suggest they do when under attack?
Allow America keep using thier neighbours as launchpads?
If America is so keen on stopping thier nuclear program, what nuclear weapon can a country already crippled militarily and economical achieve in the near future?
America is becoming a bully here.
If the argument is funding terrorism, America is guilt of same.
You don't understand yet. Let me break it down. If a family inferior to yours hates your family passionately, and they keep shouting death, destruction and always threatening yoir family, yet your family is far superior in all terms, will you as the head of the family keep folding your arms when such family is gathering equipments to break your fence. If everyone in your street knows the level of hatred that family has for yours and almost all the other families love yours, will they call you a bully of you act to reduce the capacity of destruction of that enemy family. Sir, the best form of defense is attack.

Your analysis though understood is too simplistic to capture the root, essence and power play in the conflict that has existed for thousands of years. I get your drift tho

We will see how Israel will be dictator of who should not own nuclear weapon. Iran will teach Israel the remaining lessons of the last 12days war.

A reason why you shouldn't let America built military base in your country.

It's the strategy America use for to direct enemy attacks to your country and her country is safe.

Israel fought many countries several times before they achieved victory, eg 1948 war,1956, 1967, 1973 wars. Hamas and Hezbollah have to be fought several times, now they don't pose serious threats to the Jewish state like before. So, wait for the dust to settle.
