How certain is it that it was for sleeper cells in the US? Apparently Oslo police averted an attack on a synagogue right before the attack on the US embassy, though I'm not sure if they've confirmed it was connected.

I doubt there's any active sleeper cells in the US. There might have been back in the 80s and 90s but the ones that have been here since then have probably assimilated or died.




The sky can be seen flashing in blue after US/Israeli airstrikes most likely struck energy infrastructure in Karaj, west of Tehran.

The IRGC pinky swears that if you kick out the US and Zionist ambassadors from your country then you can use the Straight of Hormuz.

Dear Kiwi Friend,

You are responding to a poster that has absolute shit for brains and there is nothing to gain from engaging with him. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I am by no means a "AI derangement syndrome" guy but like there is a certain artistry to authoritarian propaganda posters and design.

Thank you for that image. Earlier I'd mentioned seeing Ghibli-AI propaganda in Tehran, that, given I wasn't sure if my phone was going to be gone through on the way out, I neglected to take a any photos of. Glad it can be shown I'm not a liar. That shit was EVERYWHERE in Tehran.

Actually, worse than that were food shops with blatantly AI burgers and pizza and stuff.

Yeah it's genuinely sad to see. I wonder if the final months of the Assad regime used AI slopaganda or maybe they really were the last bastion of kino dictator propaganda in the Middle East.

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.

A couple problems with using FPVs (Which is why they haven't done it probably.)
1. If you are using wireless control you are advertising your location to sigint guys. Which is probably bad for your health.
2. FPVs that can travel long distance have to have relatively light payloads even more so if they are running on fiber optics. Tanker ships wouldn't be unaffected but unless you hit a fuel tank directly chances of doing any serious damage are low.
3. FPVs are slow you are going to need to be camped out for a while even if you plan on only making a single strike much less enough to be an effective deterrent. Probably a bad Idea if drones and fighter jets are looking for you.

Shaheds could be an effective deterrent but Iran's capacity to launch even those is degrading and they aren't exactly hard to shoot down. Iran relies on volume and a large region of potential targets to get successful impacts. The second half of which wouldn't be true if you only have to protect tankers. Maybe Iran could attempt some strikes with Ukraine style semi submersible drones idk.
 
Where are the 5 gorillion speedboats with RPGs that Iran built that would totally overwhelm the US Navy on numbers alone?
Don't tell me military expert Hasan lied to me
