Iran Crisis & the 2026 War between Iran and the United States, Gulf States, and Israel - Please focus on news and coverage, not argumentation.

[The best and greatest]

I can reason with Schlomo Goldstein and come to some detente with him. I cannot do so with Achmed abu-Diaperhead.

The former has his own interests in mind, and may or may not snake you to get his way.

The latter will ALWAYS be hostile by default, because his (un)holy book and the genies in his magic lamp tell him that it is his explicit divine right and mission to murder you and rule the world, or die in the attempt.

Mind you, I'm not some Mike Cuckabee bowing to the Golden Calf of Zionism. My support for Israel is conditional and purely pragmatic.

But since "MUH JOOZ" is literally your every post on this here forum, I'm gonna assume you're too damned autistic to understand nuances like that.

Dont even bother reading his posts anymore because you already know what its going to say

Something something Jews, yadda yadda AIPAC babysitters blah blah goy cattle

I have to imagine what great recruiting tools these CENTCOM videos are for the military as well as the defense industry, more so than any dramatized Navy television commercial. It's a good idea to combine killcams (which frankly can often be difficult to make out) with footage of aircraft and munition launches in real combat. "Check out all this awesome technology we got to destroy one of America's greatest enemies in an instant." It's enticing to young men across the whole nerd/jock spectrum.

Imagine if they declassify footage of the F-35 aerial engagement, even if it's likely just launching missiles from beyond visible range. Or the killcams of Iran's navy.

Leftover militia from a war with Israel. Too stronk for lebanon to disarm and no one else wants to go in and do it aside from Israel. No one wants Israel to do it because they'll chimp out and take land and make all the other browns chimp out. So the world has just let them operate in south Lebanon while telling Israel not to invade again. Typical middle eastern messy bullshit.

Lebanon is afraid to disarm them because they worry it will cause the nation to devolve in a civil war.

To quote a Lebanon expert, the situation in Lebanon is literally this scene: From the simpsons. Lebanon literally has Three stooges syndrome.

They're hitting police stations to dismantle the Basij slowly and prepare for an uprising. Pairs with the Iran International guide that's being shown on how to resist.

NEW: The US-Israeli combined force appears to be increasingly targeting the Iranian internal security apparatus, which is consistent with the US-Israeli stated objective of toppling the Iranian regime.

Other Key Takeaways:
The regime has formed a leadership council to temporarily assume the responsibilities of the supreme leader. The council includes the president, the judiciary chief, and a senior hardline cleric.

The IDF outlined a three-phase plan to achieve air superiority over western and central Iran, which will enable the combined force to achieve its objectives. This approach mirrors what Israel did in June 2025.

Iran may have started attacking maritime traffic around the Strait of Hormuz. Iran seeks to impose a cost on the United States and its partners and compel them to pursue a ceasefire before toppling the regime.

Iran has sustained its missile and drone strikes across the region, some of which have impacted civilian locations around the Gulf and Israel.

I have to imagine what great recruiting tools these CENTCOM videos are for the military

The War Department is supposedly paying X, TikTok, and Instagram to push war edits to guys in their late teens and early 20s to boost recruitment numbers. Gone are the days of relying on this ad being played every half hour on Adult Swim to bring in recruits:

And say hello to slowed and reverebed Macarena edits.

Not related but the video gave me a sensible chuckle.

And no one invites Best Korea to any of the fun wars.

Or the Chinese equipment just sucks. China trained both the Venezuelans and the Iranians; they didn't just drop off a container and leave. Xi purged most of the PLA leadership after Maduro was captured; they're very afraid that their tech is worthless and that they'll be crushed if they try to seize Taiwan.

I had considered that possibility. The actual Chinese (and Russian) AD is supposed to be good according to what I know, which I unfortunately cannot share here, hopefully you can read between the lines on that. So either the Chinks were giving the Vennys and Iranians monkey models, or their tech isn't as good as I was led to believe by my sources.

The Iranian Police Intelligence building in Yaftabad, District 18 was leveled by USAF/IAF strikes.

The moment of impact and explosions following USAF/IAF Airstrikes near the Golbandeh Justice Palace and Tehran Police Station 113.

Based on this and other recent posts you have made, it really does seem like they are especially hitting the forces necessary to suppress a rebellion, while leaving as much of the civilian infrastructure intact (they haven't hit power stations, for example).

This isn't a prelude to an external ground invasion. Police could be easily swept aside by that. This is plowing the road for the internal opposition.

I just hope we do a good enough job so these kids don't get slaughtered. Fingers crossed, I guess.

"In the 2020 presidential election, Joe Biden received an estimated 65% of the Iranian-American vote compared to 32% for Donald Trump"

Which tells me that 65% of the Iranian Americans who are cheering right now should shut the fuck up and consider the fact that they voted for a guy who never did anything but lick Khamenei's ass.

Hezbollah is stronger than the Lebanese army is how. Even after getting slapped around by Israel hard two years ago it's still stronger than the Lebanese army. Israel leaves the Lebanese government forces mostly alone because slapping them around would weaken them even more in relation to Hezbollah. There are plenty of people in the Lebanese government that would love to tell Hezbollah to fuck off but they don't have the strength to back that up

This may not be entirely true anymore. A lot of Hezbollah's strength was chewed up in Syria. And with the fall of Assad and now Iran their funding has been decimated. They suddenly find themselves adrift in the region with no friends. No support. And a lot of ascendant and powerful groups wanting them extinct. The next Lebanese Civil War will likely see them exterminated.

This is a fucking dumb metric but also not representative of anything because of it: you don't know whether they were voting about Iran shit or not, especially those that have been in the US for ages.

If they were voting on the outcome of Iran then that is basically treason - America First and all.

The word you’re looking for is “repealed.”

Anyway, I, as a woman, support the military strikes against Iran. The Ayatollah needs to go, especially for its treatment of women. Wishing for the trappings of Islamic theocracy without the Islam itself, such as the discrimination against women, is dumb. It’s groyper level of dumb.

What if I want the discrimination against women I just want them to be forced to dress as southern belles instead of wearing a bedsheet?

Remember when Russia supposedly sold the attack plans to Iran from the U.S. and Israel? I am starting to question if that was even true.

The administration had the plans written in zoomerspeak and the Iranians couldn't figure out how to translate it.

I didn't post every video or picture because some of them were too dark and no one wants to hear someone yelling Aloha Snackbar while they film with their iPhone worse than Michael J. Fox. I doubt there will be much left of the Basij in Tehran by morning. Trump said this was going to last four weeks but after one week we'll start seeing defections from the IRGC and the Artesh. I predict by the end of the month we will see a real insurgency in Iran.

Then you're still like Jeremy Hambly, Russell Greer, troons, or every humanoid on the Indian subcontinent.

You have no convictions beyond "how can I force other people to play along with my creepy kinks because I'm an ugly, repulsive, entitled manchild?"

 

[Ghostse]

There were countrywide protests and riots against Khamenei and the IRGC for weeks that only went away because they murdered like 50,000 people in 2 days in January. The idea is without the IRGC command to coordinate the people of Iran will be able to rise and overthrow their oppressive cleric-led government.

Should be easier now the Ayatollah is dead and the IRGC leadership dead/crippled

You are wrong, they never went away.
People are/were still turning out, just not in the square-clogging massive numbers they were before the government turned live ammo on them.

'combat intact' in terms of manpower and materiel, yes, but outmaneuvered to the point of checkmate.

They weren't even out maneuvered, they just completely gave up and had zero will to fight after WWI. Well, fight AGAINST the nazis. They then fought FOR the Nazis.

Anyway, the original point was France's penchant for unbashed surrender was well fucking earned in WWII.

Because I personally want to see more browns and muslims die and that is the single reason my best friends Satanyahu and Dotard Blumpft are waging this genocide.

This but unironically.

From today, Iran International - widely popular inside Iran - has begun live segments instructing Iranians inside Iran how to stop bleeding, coordinate meetings and communicate safely, as many await a signal from Reza Pahlavi to storm the streets. - Source Iran International TV

Please start airing segments on how to distract and garrote guards and how to shoot captured weapons. Please.

Interesting thread but will post relevant bits:

If they don't put their name on it, assume its bullshit by default.

God I didn't even think about this.
Thanks to Iran ACK'ing Qataris, Al Jizz is going to have to support US and Jews bombing Muslims.
