It befuddles common sense if you believe a behemoth like the US military has a dangerously low stockpile of anything as long as war is concerned.

🌎 Iran has yet again reaffirmed that the strait of hormuz will never return to its pre-war status, with or without a negotiated settlement with the U.S.

FoolishBoy419:
Size does not make the US superior to the laws of mathematics. You can't be firing 2-5 interceptors at every low-cost missile and expect to have much left after a few months of combat. You get similar results when you're firing hundreds of high-end missiles at a particular spot, only for your enemy to start shooting back from the same spot a couple of hours later.

The US doctrine emphasizes on rapid incapacitation of the enemy, and they've tried that. Iran has taken the worst America has to offer and they're still standing. Do you think they'd want to further disarm themselves when they know they'd likely remain in the same situation afterwards? They can't use nukes, and attacking civilian sites would incur consequences on their allies.

Add in the fact that the country providing the critical materials needed for making weapons is no longer supplying the US and her allies.

I doubt if you guys can ever think out of the box. When someone says the defense bloc is to the benefit of Israel, it doesn't mean that those who created the bloc deliberately create it for the benefit of Israel. It means the weakness in creating the bloc will be of better advantage to Israel.
The question that needs to be answered is then: what weaknesses will the creation of the defence bloc bring that will serve as a benefit to Israel. And the first is that the defence bloc will NOT assist Iran in any way leaving Iran totally isolated.

After the decimation of Iran, the next agenda will be a MOSSAD operation to make that alliance break up so that Turkey can be served for dinner.

⚡Trump on Iran:

We are only semi-negotiating with them. We are just watching Iran with its huge inflation and the fact they have no money.

LordAdam16:
the powerful secretary of the supreme national security council of iran has been removed

the position is appointed by the president
pezeshkian installed his ally zolghadr to replace larijani

as secretary, zolghadr was a chief architect of the mou alongside pez, araghchi, and ghalibaf

the report is that zolghadr tendered his resignation to both the supreme leader and the president
this is because he held two concurrent positions
he was the secretary (as appointed by pezeshkian) and representative of the supreme leader (as appointed by khamenei ii)

pezeshkian refused to accept his resignation
but khamenei ii accepted his resignation

khamenei ii then ordered pezeshkian to remove him as secretary
khamenei appointed general rezaee as his representative on the council
then ordered pezeshkian to appoint him as the new secretary

---

this is the first proper flex of his power as supreme leader

there is more to this story
but it is impossible to verify

generally, in the iranian political system tendering a resignation is an act of protest
pezeshkian did this with khamenei i, zarif as foreign minister did it with khamenei i
usually the supreme leader will note your protest, ceremonially reject the resignation letter, then try to address the source of your discontent

khamenei ii has essentially signaled he will do things differently
and that he will deftly use any opportunity to advance a systemic purge of reformists

---

i have been calling for this
and i am heartened by the dismissal
it is my sincere wish that pezeshkian tenders his resignation again
i 1 check something
all of them have to go

-Lord

SonOfWords:
For all the tiresome failings that Khamenei snr embodied, he left Iran with a very structured and efficient military doctrine.

Iran's military operational blueprint is undoubtedly going to be the subject of future studies by other countries because of how remarkably it has been able to overwhelm the world's most funded military force.

Namaster:
The new secretary has the DEMEANOUR of Vahidi.

As for Pezeshkian, I read somewhere that he was WARNED that the next time he tenders his resignation; it'll be ACCEPTED.
