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

This has gone too far, now we've got fucking ayylmaos posting in the thread. Null needs to limit it to terrestrial IP-addresses.

 

[Mr.Bucket]

Update on the Iranian women's soccer team in Australia - five of them escaped and defected, then Trump bitched at Albanese until Australia agreed to help the girls if they didn't want to go back to Iran. A few of them chose to return.

From one overwhelmingly muslim infected country to a mildly less muslim infected country.

At least they won't get beaten for not wanting their head covered... yet.

they are losing military equipment and munitions every day, and their ability to replace those losses is also under attack
with every passing day the risk of crossing the strait diminishes further

Doubtful. The Strait is small enough that common FPV drones from the Ukraine war can reach the other shoreline. The Shaheds can do it too, from even further away. As long as Iran is willing to continue the fight they can find the materials they need to strike these tankers.

 

[Stupor Mario]

Turns out you can just do things ship oil!

Impossible. The Legion of Doom-Posters alone understand markets and global economics. The Trump admin would never, could never think ahead or anticipate the consequence of actions the way their galaxy brains do.

I swear, people really have been permanently conditioned to think every Middle East operation will always be a G.W. Bush-esque disaster.

 

[Thomas Talus]

No clue how something so obvious could have slipped under the MI5's radar until after his election as Supreme Leader.

My presumption is that they didn't miss it, they facilitated it.

30KM wide isn't huge, but it's not Seuz Canal narrow. There's room to navigate around in there, especially since Iran can't radar-focus-in their drones without giving themselves away.

All the "experts" were saying $100 this week. Try $200. Maybe ten days before $10/gal gas?

See below.

Told you guys oil would calm down within a month. I wasn't expecting to be fine by Monday, though.

Nice to be proven right, isn't it? Also nice that the doomposters from last night - $900 barrel oil! Bloodbath in the stock market! - were once again proven retarded. For the record, DJIA today +0.5%, S&P +0.83%, Nasdaq +1.38%, oil -8.6% to ~$83/barrel, and natural gas -4.36%.

 

[draggs]

We've reached the Iran can totally close the Strait indefinitely and there's nothing Drimpf can do about it bro trust me bro pls bro pls stage of sneeding

 

[Hannibalistique]

Of course MI5 serves British Grand Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, the new Supreme Leader of the Islamic Caliphate of the UK.

 

[Foltest]

If Trump go "we have won" and then just fuck off, it would be a fucking mistake.
You can't take half measurements.

 

[Al from Dadeville]

So apparently Iran does officially use the solar Hijri calendar.
-New Year’s Day is March 20
-This is also the first day of a new month since the war began
-Ramadan will be over
-Right around March 5/6 Israel and the US announced they were entering phase 2 of the war and it was expected to last 12-14 days before phase 3

I have a couple of predictions that are just based on my retarded opinions:
-If nothing pops off w/the Shah bros before then I’m hoping this is the day it happens. I expect it to happen sooner because this seems to revolve more around momentum and the situation on the ground, not magical dates on a calendar, but that’s as late as I’d guess a major street uprising would begin.
-I still think police and military are due to miss a payday at the beginning of their month. If that’s not on March 20, whatever day it happens should lead to some desertions.

 

[autistic dog]

It's fun seeing the coping from third-worldist retards in the replies swearing that all those ships are part of the "Iranian shadow fleet."
Sure, Greece is well known for being a puppet of the IRGC.
Iran can't mine the Strait without a Navy, and they can't lock on to moving ships through the Strait without radar that will alert every IAF/USAF detector within a ten mile radius once it activates. These backwoods dipshits are not as invulnerable as they pretend they are.

Some tiktok influencer needs to try putting a transponder on a remote controlled boat see if he can bait the Iranians into shooting at it.

Iran out here deploying holograms

Das rite kaffir boy. The entirely peaceful Iranian nuclear program is really to generate the energy required to power advanced Twelver Shia hardlight.

US/Israeli strikes targeting a Basij base in southern Tehran. Location: 35°44'22.21"N 51°29'16.10"E


CENTCOM debunks the rumor that a malfunctioning Patriot missile hit a Bahraini apartment building:

Russian and Iranian media claimed earlier today that a U.S. patriot missile missed while intercepting an Iranian missile or drone and inadvertently hit a neighborhood in Bahrain. LIE.

What really happened: An Iranian drone struck a residential neighborhood, injuring 32 civilians in Bahrain, including children who required medical treatment, according to Bahrain’s government. TRUTH.

Several US/Israeli airstrikes were carried out on Khorramabad, western Iran's Lorestan province, earlier today.


Lebanon’s government proposed direct negotiations with Israel, mediated by the Trump administration, to end the war and pursue a peace deal, according to Axios.

It even suggested immediate ministerial-level talks in Cyprus and claimed some Hezbollah members might support an agreement. However, U.S. and Israeli officials reacted skeptically.

U.S. envoy Tom Barrack told Lebanese officials that any talks must involve real action to disarm Hezbollah, while Israeli officials rejected the proposal, saying their focus is now on defeating Hezbollah rather than negotiations.

Lebanese leaders are said to be frustrated by the lack of U.S. engagement, believing that without American mediation, peace talks are impossible.

An Emirati F-16 engaged an Iranian Shahed-136 drone at a very low altitude over Dubai.

US/Israeli airstrikes were reported on the Iranian side of the Shalamcheh Iraqi-Iranian border this evening.

 

[draggs]

btw I 100% expect more volatility in the oil market, all it will take is the next tanker being hit (and the next tanker WILL be hit eventually) for vibes to shift again. But the idea that the United States cannot and will not significantly reduce Iran's ability to threaten tanker traffic is absurd

Not our problem, that's Israel's problem.

If the assertion of "They need their transponders on to tell who's who out there." is true, the drones would have to be hand guided. There's no real way to tell which ships are which at this point, and firing up a radar to guide them would cause said radar to receive a JDAM or 6 inside of 10 mins of powering up.

 

[Mr. Racewar1488]

The mass damage in front of the Isfahan Provincial Police Command Headquarters (Police Crossroad)


Trump's going to kill the new Ayatollah if he doesn't agree to stop with the nuke shit.


Don't worry, the Zionist Entity is already planning to kill him.


Intense bombing in Tehran tonight. Kino footage incoming, hopefully.

 

[AN/ALR56]

I hate we can't have nuance, it's all black and white.

You can criticize Israel but think Iran is a retarded place, you can think what Israel is doing in the west bank is imoral, but they have a right not have ballistic missiles falling on them, you can think the war in Iran is justified against a regime that slaughters protesters against food inflation, but think bombing a young girls school is wrong.
