⚡Instead of the usual Mediterranean and Red Sea route, the USS George H.W. Bush carrier strike group is sailing around the entire African continent to reach the Persian Gulf, just to avoid the Houthi-controlled Bab el-Mandeb, per USNI News.

The carrier and its escorts, including USS Donald Cook, USS Mason, USS Ross, and the fast oiler USNS Arctic, are currently off the coast of Namibia. The detour adds roughly 5,000 nautical miles to the standard Mediterranean transit route.

The last US carrier to transit the Bab el-Mandeb was the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower in December 2023, before the Houthi campaign against shipping began.
Scared little boys

Can you explain what it means?
First before I explain hope you won't be like that Mikasobi that went from What do you mean by Change their DNA makeup to You said migration Changed their DNA makeup, I asked What do you mean by that? To finally and very funnily The question I asked is [b]why did you say [/b]migration changed their DNA makeup?

The guy deserves your moniker even more than you the bearer.


So long time ago a friend of mine who studies biblical prophecy show me evidence from the bible about a future war between Israel and a coalition of other countries some o have mentioned here this person then said before that war there will be war between Iran and Israel a war that would weaken Iran that it would only be able to threaten Israel within a military coalition.

So yeah I believe this current war is that war to weaken iran because Iran has never been weaker and vulnerable than it is now

It's axis of terror around Israel has been massively eroded after the pummelling by the US the houties has been very quiet they defended Gaza more than they reacted to this current war on their OGA Hezbollah Lebanon has turned on it it's just a matter of time till it's disarmed.

Hamas ? what is Hamas? They will be unable to threaten the State of Israel as a unit for a very long time to come.

Israel has only become stronger many former enemies are now it's friends.

The only country in the stipulated coalition that's currently on a mild terms with Israel is Russia neither on bad terms nor on Good terms with Israel. The rest hates Israel.

The only thing my friend was wrong about was that in the series of war against Iran the US would abandon Israel. Clearly the US hasn't but that could have easily changed if Trump didn't win. Now he might actually loss the mid terms and things won't be this easy then trump's hand's might be tied then trump is on a more hotter sit than Nateyahu in this war Israel's populance support this war more than they supported the Gazan war. So he could still be right.

He worded the series of war as Cold war economical war then indirect war then actual fighting.


Seeing everything now it can only be divine.

God has reasons for everything.

⚡North Korea test-fired 5 missiles from its new 5,000-ton Choe Hyon-class destroyer off the west coast

The launch included 2 strategic cruise missiles and three anti-ship missiles

All missiles hit their targets with Kim Jong Un personally observing the test.

Benefits of having Russia as a friend.

North Korea struggled to build one of these but they couldn't until they entered into the defense partnership with Russia.

⚡Saudi Arabia is pressing the U.S. to drop its blockade of Hormuz, fearing President Trump’s move to close it off could lead Iran to escalate and disrupt other important shipping routes.

Timeline of major Iran-sponsored attacks (direct or via proxies like Hezbollah, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Iraqi militias, etc.) against Israel and the United States.
Iran has primarily used proxies for deniability, with occasional direct strikes in recent years. "All" attacks number in the hundreds (especially proxy rocket/drone/IED campaigns); only notable high-casualty or landmark incidents are listed below.

Against the United States1979–1981: Iranian regime-backed takeover of U.S. Embassy in Tehran (direct) — 66 Americans taken hostage (444-day crisis; no deaths during captivity).

April 1983: U.S. Embassy bombing in Beirut (Islamic Jihad/Hezbollah, Iran-backed proxy) — 17 Americans killed (total 63 dead).

October 1983: Marine barracks truck bombing in Beirut (Hezbollah, Iran-backed) — 241 U.S. service members killed (220 Marines + 21 others).

September 1984: U.S. Embassy annex bombing in Beirut (Hezbollah, Iran-backed) — 2 Americans killed (total 24 dead).

June 1996: Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia (Saudi Hezbollah, Iran-backed) — 19 Americans killed, 372 injured.

2003–2011: IED/EFP attacks by Iranian-backed Shiite militias in Iraq (proxy) — ~603 U.S. troops killed.

January 2020: Direct IRGC ballistic missile strike on Ain al-Asad base, Iraq (retaliation for Soleimani killing) — 0 killed, >100 U.S. troops with traumatic brain injuries.

January 2024: Drone strike on U.S. base in Jordan (Kataib Hezbollah, Iran-backed proxy) — 3 U.S. soldiers killed, >40 injured.

(Iranian proxies conducted dozens more attacks on U.S. forces in Iraq/Syria post-2023, wounding scores but with fewer fatalities.)

Against Israel (or Israeli/Jewish targets abroad)

March 1992: Israeli Embassy bombing in Buenos Aires (Hezbollah/Iran-sponsored) — 29 killed, 242 injured.

July 1994: AMIA Jewish community center bombing in Buenos Aires (Iran/Hezbollah) — 85 killed, >300 injured.

2006: Lebanon War (Hezbollah, Iran-armed/assisted) — ~165 Israelis killed (hundreds of rockets fired; Iranian operatives involved).

October 7, 2023: Hamas-led massacre from Gaza (Iran-backed/funded proxy) — ~1,200 killed (including ~48 Americans), 250+ hostages.

April 13–14, 2024: Direct Iranian drone/missile barrage (>300 projectiles) on Israel — Nearly all intercepted; 1 indirect civilian death, minor damage.

October 1, 2024: Direct Iranian ballistic missile attack (~180 missiles) on Israel — Most intercepted; limited damage/casualties.

June 2025 (12-Day War retaliation): Iranian missile strikes on Israeli cities (direct, amid broader conflict) — ~28–32 civilians killed.

Notes: Casualties focus on Israeli/U.S. victims (proxies often cause far higher total deaths among others).
Many additional low-level proxy attacks (rockets, drones, stabbings) by Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, and Iraqi groups have occurred continuously, especially since 2023, but are not individually listed here for brevity.


When they chant Death to America and Death to Israel,they really mean it.
They still don't have a bomb ,they only have the strait of Hormuz as their vital leverage.

Hamxas:
The only country on earth to ever use a nuclear weapon and trethening to still use it if it ever gets attack is not a Muslim nation never have it been ruled by a Muslim.

Deep down within you if u would say the truth, if it was Afghanistan or Iraq or Libia or
Somalia that did a quarter of what the US did to them, by now we would have a nuclear war.
Stop ur nonsense about Muslim being terrorist, America attacked and you expect them to sit idle while being bombed. We all know who is trigger happy here, shouting nuclear this, nuclear that. And we all know who the real terrorist are. No Islamic nation on earth has ever attacked America, so christians are the only people on earth that want peace right. You want to live life so you take mine.

let me reiterate on the enrichment issue




in 2014, iran's heavy water reactor was on the verge of completion
when operational, it would produce enough plutonium for 2 nukes annually
it was enriching uranium and was building more facilities

in 2026, iran has no heavy water reactor (gave it up during the jcpoa)
and is flirting with the idea of permanently giving up its right to enrichment




this is not progress
this is regression

if they give up their right to enrichment under duress
i will permanently withdraw my support for the government
and become a disinterested bystander

⚡Norway’s planned delivery of at least six F-16 jets to Ukraine is facing major delays, with none transferred as of April 2026.

Even in the best-case scenario, the jets may not arrive until 2027—far later than the original 2024 timeline.

Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by LordAdam16: 10:37am On Apr 14
suspending enrichment is bad enough
it is terrible, but at least, there is a termination date

it is terrible
because the epstein 🤡🤡 will claim that iran is breaking the agreement by enriching
during the period they claim enrichment is suspended
no proof iran offers will be enough and that'll be used to justify a new attack

but at least, on paper
iran will maintain its right to enrich
and it will spend the suspension period rehabbing, rebuilding, and building new facilities




completely and permanently halting enrichment is catastrophic

this is how the epstein 🤡🤡 will treat this expedition
you drop bombs, they give up enrichment
next time you drop bombs, they will give up missiles and drones
and the next time after that, they will be delcy rodriguez'd

if there is anything we know about the demons
it is that they are relentless

giving up enrichment permanently is the beginning of the end for the revolution system of government
and i am not going to be part of the funeral procession




the fact that they are even suggesting enrichment suspension
to not-agreement capable demons who failed to adhere to any preconditions

is a betrayal of the martyrdom of the generals, scientists, soldiers, and civvies that have died so far

the traitorous reformists are at it again
they gave up plutonium for a deal without firm safeguards
and they are about to f*ck iran again with a sh*t deal even when they have the best hand of cards they'll ever have

iranians have come out everyday on the streets for the past 44 days
millions have volunteered for ground war and they stormed infrastructure with no regard for the lives when threatened
they have endured 47 years of economic deprivation
the irgc has conducted the most prolific asymmetric campaign by a nation state since ww2
(the vietnamese had direct help from the soviets and chinese; there were soviet and chinese soldiers in vietnam participating in the war)
and the reformists are about to throw all of that away

this is no more accidental
or naivete
it is straight up treason!

At this point, they probably have NO choice.

They are fighting 2 countries with a COMBINED economy of $31 TRILLION.
Plus, an ANNUAL Military Budget that is equal to 10 YEARS of Iran's ENTIRE National Budget.

They can SUSTAIN a war indefinitely.

Iran has NO ally that is willing to commit as the US is doing for ILLsrael.

ANY deal will be an INJUSTICE.
But Iran has no choice.

The previous deals you described clearly made them WEAK.

Yet they are on COURSE to make another deal that would make them even WEAKER.

A SENSIBLE entity would look at historical data and realise that agreeing to WEAKEN yourself in exchange for security guarantees from a BELLIGERENT attacker is MADNESS.

When you've made yourself WEAKER and WEAKER with every deal, they will ALWAYS return to "RE-NEGOTIATE" the terms of the agreement.

And when they return, you will have NO way to defend yourself.

the epstein 🤡🤡 cannot sustain a war indefinitely
because of the economic consequences

that is why they proposed a ceasefire
they did not do that out of the kindness of their hearts

the reformist politicos are treasonous bast7654
they went from we will not accept a ceasefire only an end to the war
to we will only accept a ceasefire after you meet these preconditions
to we will not attend negotiations if you do not meet these preconditions
and now they are talking about a second round of negotiations where they will offer a new set of concessions to demons who accepted and denied very clear preconditions

what is the worst that would have happened if they had not attended negotiations until the demons adhered to the preconditions

they don't need to fire missiles or drones
all they had to do was sit in iran
while oil price remains elevated

the irgc say what they want to do
and they do it
they did it everyday of the war
and these bast2819 politicos can't even stick to a very straightforward, complete ceasefire or no negotiations

the reformist politicos would not have struck the us installations and interests in the gulf countries

earlier in the war when pezeshkian was apologizing and suggesting the attacks on gulf countries will stop
the irgc had to hurriedly push for mojtaba to be installed

now that the politicos control the negotiation process
they are doing their damn best to cripple iran from within
and then later they'll feign surprise about the outcome or be adamant that their very deliberate acts of treason were their only choice

the reformists are co-conspirators in the slow-burn death of the republic
