I've said before in this thread that the only reason Iran wasn't completely crushed in two days is that they basically brag about how much their citizenry hates them and constantly use them as a shield because "You can't swiftly kill us without killing the people who you're trying to save."
Lebanon notably lacks that same defense, as they have basically let Hezbollah just completely anchor themselves into the country without any of the same obvious pushback by the native population.

Iranian Shields and the bullshit that the proxies pull only really work if you're a Euro cuck. Let's be honest here if they want to war with the country like China or Russia. Fuck the civilians. They're all dead. But the Europeans are so buckbroken when it comes to war that they're willing to tell the United States how to fight. And more so the willing to tell the Israelis, who deal with more combat in a fucking week than they have in a decade, what they can or cannot do.

Frankly, I'm really happy that America is finally going back to embracing the cowboy fuck you mentality that made us strong in the past. I will say this again and I will say this continuously, we are Americans, we were founded by pioneers and we have a pioneer spirit, we are a cowboy country. We will do what has to be done but we will do it our way. And to be honest, at this point the only other country West of fucking India that actually acts this way is probably Israel and then maybe Poland.

When he clearly gets things wrong is it completely memoryholed or are you allowed to bring it up and be corrected?

From everything I've seen of him? Exclusively the former.

If you try the latter he retard laughs and bans you while his chat calls you a zionist. About literally anything too, it doesn't even need to be political. You could make fun of his dogshit outfits or him zapping his dog and get the exact same treatment.

Not a bad take. Extremely difficult to determine if this actually has the potential for literally the most successful military campaign of all time. I'm slanted towards it being overly optimistic that we get regime change. But the fact that is even a discussed outcome is bananas. There is actual potential that it happens, and its wild.

I suspect we get a cucked complacent version of current regime at the end personally. Trump isn't putting 100k+ invasion force in there.

But the optimistism isn't unfounded. Merely confirmation that the US Marines have made landing is likely to provoke revolt. If Americans are willing to spill blood along with you, you'll risk it.

Yea, just like the other 12 times we’ve done the same thing and it backfired everytime. This time for sure though
 
Ignorance of Iran, it's structure, it's history and it's people is not an argument.

"Haha all browns are the same" is fun for jokes but if you start unironically using that logic to supplement knowledge about actual conflicts going on then you need to go play with legos or some shit, you're wasting everyone's time including your own.

I-24 news is reporting that Israel is planning to invade Lebanon with more troops than it did in 2006. The plan is to completely dismantle Hezbollah south of the latani. From what I can gather the goal here both in the United States and in Israel is to just rip the Band-Aid off and never have to deal with these fucking people again. Trump is finally allowing and agreeing with bibi that fuck the European rules-based order. It's American rules-based order that runs the world and fuck you. So the Europeans can sit in their monitoring cuck chair, and scream and yell but the people that actually matter for the next 50 to 100 years minimum, Will once again take control of the situation. To quote Joe Biden " there is no moral center in Europe without the United States"

Fucking BASED OH FFUUUUKKKK IM GONNA BUUSSSTT

Seeing the IDF roll.i to Hezzbullah's "scthary" strongholds and stomp them to death will be kino
 
What's the end game for Iran if Trump captures or destroy 90% of their oil exports? They can't just buy another oil export industry from china with just sand and carpets.

Uptick in drones today


No idea why people are doubting you, we’ve been relaying them messages to stay indoors since the beginning.
Whether it can be successful is one thing, but it certainly isn’t going to happen when explosions keep actively occurring in Tehran.

Yep. Missiles launches are low double digits and as we get the last of their launchers it'll be single digits then zero.

Drones are harder as they're smaller but as we kill the launch personnel, storage facilities and the like they'll eventually be low double digit to single digits.

Well, nothing but this: we just concluded week 2 of what has been said to be a 4-6 week operation, that is further said to be ahead of schedule. Most likely the big signal for revolution will come to match the winding-down of bombings at said 4-6 week mark, although there's an outside possibility that it could come as early as next Friday (March 20th is Nowruz, the Persian New Year). So we most likely won't have to wait that much longer to see just how effective (or ineffective) the Iranian people will be at toppling their weakened government.

Yep. Let's see what a week brings.

I have the sense the entire attack from the start was intended to be a short couple days long operation centered around targetting as many figures and strategic assets of the regime as possible under the belief all the protests would spiral into people toppling the regime. Trump saying he'd prefer someone inside the country over that nepobaby cuck all the diaspora twerkers guzzle cum for supports that theory at least for me. A couple more weeks of bombings aren't going to change anything if they haven't toppled the regime internally at all.

My hunch is the people that actively want to see the regime toppled are too weak or too lazy to organize and do it themselves and are banking on some sort of ground invasion like in Iraq and Afghanistan before they make a move, which is fucking retarded since Iran is a extremely mountainous country of 100million people. Which all comes to mean that anti-regime organizations will do jack shit, the regime will consolidate around whoever survives and becomes Ayatollah of the Ashes, and we will all get fucking no where with a more consolidated regime which gets to use the operation as propaganda for why the average Iranian needs to support the regime. Crusader LARPers will jack off over war edits, the DoD will talk about how Iran needs to negotiate still, and the Straits of Hormuz will probably stay closed similar to when the Suez was shut down for like a decade.

Oh and they will actually start the nuclear program that has been 2 weeks from a nuclear bomb because nukes are the ultimate method to survival, as proven by the Norks.

One thing I worry about is what I consider the ‘irregular navy’, meaning small boats either carrying ordinance or explosives in the case of suicide boats. It’ll be their only play left now that they don’t really have an air force or blue water navy left, their capacity to launch missiles and drones will be heavily degraded or destroyed and their regular army is disaffected and doesn’t give a shit.

Nuclear retaliation is completely off the table. If they had the capacity to construct even a crude nuclear device they would have shown it existed by now.

If they thought gambling on an organic regime change they'd have no power to initiate themselves was the only successful option then they are retarded to have started the attack. This was always about America (and Israel's) geopolitical goals first with regime change as a possible bonus. Anyone who thinks regime change was the only goal or the only way US/IS can benefit please explain for once why you think so.

More likely they will just take control of the straits if no regime change. Who says it has to be all or nothing? The bombings are to ensure that Iran can't do anything about it.

If it was that easy to built nukes with two sticks and a rock it would have happened already.

Then you have not paid attention at all.

(a) Yet the world survived the Suez closure; short term trade disruptions were solved and life went on as normal. If the straits are closed you'd expect exactly the same thing to happen, and it's in fact happening already.
(b) If the straits are closed for a lengthy period, the biggest loser will be Iran. The total collapse of their economy will be among the least of their worries.
(c) I'd ordinarily close by insulting your intelligence here, but frankly you're not worth the effort.
