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

IDF Drone strikes 2 Iranian soldiers trying to flee after launching a ballistic missile.

 

[Chuckwagon]

Two more defectors, one from the IRGC (presumably the one with the more modern camo) and another from the Artesh, thank Trump for delivering on his promise that 'help is on the way'.

An Islamist officer cheerfully admits that his men (unclear if they're Basij or regular police, he mentions both) are hiding in random civilians' houses to avoid getting killed when their stations & bases get bombed.

Rough translation: "What's the point of hitting police stations? They're empty! Our troops(the word he uses is our kids) went into people’s homes. From there, in the neighborhood, they start operations. The pillar of our security is our people."

Sucks for them that this will not be a politically correct war.

"- What's the point in hitting the police stations? (laughs)

- The police station is empty.

- The police station is empty and the boys have gone into people's houses and are guarding their cit... their neighbourhoods from there. Do they think our security bunker is the basij base? Or they hit the city hall today. Our base of security is our nation. The boys in the police, the boys in basij, when they see you've hit their base, they leave it behind and go into people's houses, and from people's houses they oversee their operations, their activities."

Iran International claims 900-1,000 Islamists were killed when the Be'sat sports complex got bombed yesterday. Such a high figure seems overly , however hundreds dying there does seem plausible since Islamist troops were indeed photographed/filmed trying to set up camp there (following the strategy of the guy above to avoid dying in their bases) and the stadium was bombed pretty heavily.

An ammo depot was bombed in the far western border town of Dehloran, Ilam Province (pop'n 32k).

 

[aphaln]

30 Iranian army soldiers got killed in a bombing after their commanders threatened them to stay in their spot or die. Description from an Iranian channel: "Baneh on Wednesday, March 3rd; about 30 soldiers on duty died, their commanders threatened them that if they fled, they would all be executed on the spot." These soldiers were allegedly part of the forces meant to target Kurdish troops.

In other words, hoping then his men will use the random civilians as human shield aka cannon fodder I presume?

few days late but one of the best videos I have found showing the extend of damage in Tel Aviv, they are working OVERTIME to suppress the number of casualties

But bros, I thought the rules of war didn't matter when it's Iranian sailors drowning? -300 Izzat to you.

it is fucking insane to me we torpedoed that ship then LEFT THE AREA, even in ww2 we have COPIOUS examples of german and allied submariners offering aid to the sailors they attacked as there has always been a strong mutual understanding of men of the sea that its them vs nature, they want to stop their ship from operating not take every life aboard

so to abandon the sinking vessel and call in SRI LANKAN support is pretty wild but hey, undeclared war is hell

(videos of morgues overflowing with bodies) "The regime didn't murder 40K of its own citizens that is fake news there is no proof."
(a car is ACKed in some jewish town; actually we can't even see any signs so we're on their work its even in Israel) ISRAEL IS FINSIHED THEY ARE LYING MORE JEWS ARE DYING NOW THAN IN THE HOLOCAUST.

That's Gaza tho.

You posting these cope vids, but not your hands.

Americans really needed gas to go below $3 a gal.

Serious question,Why does a gallon of gas need to cost less than what your mother charges for a blow job?

 

[Fanatical Pragmatist]

So the price will go down then. Niche equipment is only expensive because it has a lot of R&D invested in it and with very few units sold, the manufacturer needs to charge a high price to recover the money spent.

This is a pretty big loss, regardless. It's a direct weapon hit on a theater-level military asset.

It's a big ticket item too, and even if 'cheaper' replacing it won't be cheap. Fortunately it seems no personnel were lost in the strike.

I gloated when the 98L6 Yenisey (S-500) bought the farm in Crimea, I'll admit when Team USA takes an L in the ME.

He is a muslim, hiding behind women and children is the only way they know to fight.

sorry and where does lobbing missiles into the middle of cities not even close to military objectives fall in the rules of war? Serious question since you are saying the rules of war are a big issue here.

And attacking 3rd - nation civilian shipping? Really wanting to see exactly where we're at w/r/t what rules we are and aren't needing to have enforced to prevent the collapse of civilization.

 

[StudMccool]

you still think Gaza has skyscrapers like that after October 7th buddy?

Its just the dumb liberal source calling all of israel "occupied Palestine"

post nose, how about that, if you can even fit it all in frame

Bibi was walking his dog RIGHT down that road, he stopped to pick up a penny and the Ghost of Tehran, JUST MISSED him by a cunt hair.

To retell and old joke,

Bibi wanted to know his fortune before starting a war with Iran so he went and saw a fortune teller. The teller took did his readings and came back to tell Bibi his findings.
"sir It would appear you shall die on a Muslim Holiday"
Bibi was taken aback by this and asked him, are you certain? Witch Muslim holiday?
"Ohh quite certain sir, whatever day you die will indeed by one of the most holy of Muslim holidays"

Serious question,Why does a gallon of gas need to cost less than what your mother charges for a blow job?

Fuck if I know. If she got any cheaper, we'd have to start using her as an economic indicator.

You intend to actually engage about the war and oil or wut, son?

I posted numbers and reality. You posted literally nothing. Me: 1, You: 0.

Gas is going to effect public perception here very shortly. It will be interesting to see whether anything shifts in the war when it happens or we keep plodding along exactly the same. I think it's anyone's guess about that.

America will never allow Big Mac to come to harm.

Yes, from surface ships. It was a submarine. Where are you going to put 200+ people on a fucking submarine? Think. Use your brain for once in your life.

"no RLTSN with Israel" israel has to be my favorite.

wonder why you dont see anyone setting themselves as "American owner and operated" it seems the day of Civis Romanus sum meaning you are American is fading fast

> "no RLTSN with Israel" israel has to be my favorite.

I'm thinking if you're crossing the strait, there's no way to make them more suspicious that you have a relation with Israel than writing that as your destination.

Legit question: What protocol do they use for transmitting destination? And why can't it be extended to have metadata or some extra message lol It might come in handy in a situation like this.

 

[Burnt Fish]

did we go back in after they SUNK 2 super carriers?

Your brain is so rotted on spouting bullshit that you just claimed the houthis sank 2 carriers lmao.

they are working OVERTIME to suppress the number of casualties

You....... you do know what the purpose of the bomb shelters Israel is constantly sending their civvies to hide in are don't you? when they constantly issue warnings of the locations of incoming strikes and then they all go underground so tha twhen a building gets hit and ends up looking like that, they aren't inside of it.

 

[mindlessobserver]

Spring-boarding off of the Don Sargoon post, the current mood from the people I've talked to in real life and what I imagine the general European mood, in spite of what our outlets are trying to shill for is basically this

View attachment 8666818

And this is why Europe wasnt even told there would be a party, let alone given invitations. America knows full well how feckless its allies jn Europe are. Involving them at all would have been too risky for absolutely no benefit at all.

StudMcCool exists to shit up threads at this point. This is an info not politics thread and this faggot is spammimg AI generated and India Times articles.

I encourage everyone to put him on Ignore.

same reason USBs have to be flipped over before you put it in, some guy designed it that way and the whole industry adopted it at inception and now trying to change or update it would be like trying to rebuild an engine of a running car.

its like the thing we use to schedule flights, it was made in the damn 60s but we are terrified to update it for fear it will stop working so we just keep using the ancient one


my guess is that the maritime industry is no different and that little destination file box with clearly a very low letter count is likely a miracle that it even works, the guy who made the software, God knows how long ago likely was FAR more focused on making an app that can show realtime location data on tens of thousands of moving OTH nodes without constantly needing to refresh he probbaly threw that destination text box in as an afterthought just for what it says on the label but overtime people realized that was their only place to include easily visible messages so bobs your uncle there you go, thats how a destination tag turns into a comments section.

also @namelesstacotruck are you deficient? the submarine talk is related to

 

[Silly Fella]

buddy Im not making shit up, google the Laconia Inncident, there is document proof of both sides using submarines to save humans from just perishing in the opn ocean
View attachment 8667633View attachment 8667634

the sub can provide lifeboats and then tie them to the back of the sub and tow them to port, your ON THE SCENE

anway Lacconia incident was so sad cause the Germans did it for us but we dident quite understand what was happening so we sent an airwing to go strafe our own guys and the sub that was trying to help, go figure.

Could you even imagine how retarded it would be to surface first of all? How would you imagine that playing out? Are they suppose to let hundreds of muslim POWs into their confined submarine? Are they suppose to let them sit on top for hours for actual vessels to come and save them anyways? You don't think that there's any risk to that? Do you even think at all?
