I wonder if Iran pulled a Iraq 1991 and ordered their fighter fleet to Russia or Pakistan, I've only seen unrepairable aircraft being blown up, and only their trainer aircraft seem to be patrolling the skies of Tehran before they got btfo by f-35s.

I suppose in a sense you could say that they're being kept in Russia.

The trainer craft Iran foolishly took to the skies with were in their posession to prepare them for an order they placed with Russia for something like 50 Su-35SE that they had not yet received and had a delivery schedule from 2026-2028.

So it's less them "hiding aircraft in Russia" and more that the aircraft had just not yet been delivered to them from Russia (if any of them are even built yet)

(An article on the topic)
 
Following Trump's discussion with Zelensky on dealing with Iranian Shahed drones, Ynet reports that Netanyahu requested a call with Zelensky to discuss cooperating on countering Iranian drones.

Meanwhile on the Lebanese front, Israeli and Lebanese Representatives Expected to Hold Direct Talks in Coming Days.

According to assessments, the sides are expected to discuss a diplomatic solution during the talks that would halt the fighting and meet Israel's demand for the disarmament of Hezbollah. However, according to one of the sources who spoke with Haaretz, Israel is "not ruling out" a large-scale ground operation to seize territory in Lebanon up to the Litani River. A second source estimated that the chances of such an operation are very high.

Israeli security officials estimate that Iran has so far launched ~125 cluster missiles towards Israeli territory, 11 of which penetrated Israeli air defense systems. 250 missiles were fired from Iran towards Israel in general, nearly 5x more missiles than that were launched towards Arab countries across the rest of the Middle East by Iran.
 
Btw tripoli is one of the ones that deleted the well deck for more hangar space, its likely going to be a pure MV-22 assault

Can some Arab sperg answer why the Arabs arent retaliating when Iran is non stop bombing and droning their oil refineries and cities?
They aren't even bothering to keep appearances with Israel, because they know they will get intercepted, they keep non stop bombing the Arabs instead and they don't do shit, they don't seem to be even defending themselves anymore, it's baffling

What exactly are these Arab states gonna do? Cry?

They hosted US military bases on their territory with the assumption that it would protect them. A clear miscalculation. Now they're paying the price

I am going to try to tl;dr:
The first, foremost, and "real" reason is they can't. Arab armies are all jokes, they know this when you force them to face reality, and they would just embarrass themselves. The US is also very likely telling them to just stay out the fucking way.
You have Kuwait with the only Air to Air kills of US aircraft because Arab pilots are just that level of fucking garbage. Imagine what their airforce would do over Iran as we try to surgically hit targets and they cant' even managed to not kill friendlies.

The second reason is becasue of retared muslim logic. They can't attack other muslims without reasons, and doing so at the behest of Israel would be mucho haram.

third reason, to expand on the first, is that they are being held back. The US doesn't want an external invasion to give the IRGC cause to unite their population. They are just bombing regime targets and then see what happens. If no overthrow happens and no living member of the IRGC this is willing to see reason can be found, the arabs may be green lit to go into Iran for punative raids.

Cute of you to assume they had anything but unrepairable aircraft before this kicked off.

Qatar doesn't even have its own army...their armed forces are literally just Pakistanis who are doing it for the money. Good luck getting them to fight for Israel.
 
IDF Publishes footage of an airstrike on a storage & launch site in western Iran, all of the soldiers inside proceed to flee and an IDF drone hunts them down.




The IDF continues to strike the ballistic missile and UAV arrays of the Iranian terror regime in western and central Iran.

As part of this effort, an Israeli Air Force aircraft, acting on precise and real-time IDF intelligence, identified a UAV launch cell operating from a hangar located within a UAV launch site in western Iran.

The aircraft struck the hangar and then identified the operatives of the launching cell fleeing the structure.

Within seconds of their escape, the Israeli Air Force carried out additional strikes and eliminated the UAV launch cell.

Their elimination was made possible due to the aerial superiority achieved by the Israeli Air Force in western and central Iran, following strikes on hundreds of the regime’s air defense systems in these areas, as well as ballistic missile launchers and additional infrastructure targeted since the start of the operation.

The IDF continues to operate to dismantle ballistic missile and UAV infrastructure in western Iran, in order to reduce as much as possible the scope of fire directed toward the territory of the State of Israel.

My entire X feed is filled with anti American delusion. Phantom armies and missiles blowing up non existent but really important infrastructure and command posts. It’s important to keep track of who is stupid and lying and who isn’t.

Arab countries in the middle east whose governments allow US military bases:
  • Saudi Arabia
  • Jordan
  • UAE
  • Oman
  • Qatar
  • Bahrain
  • Kuwait
  • Iraq
Arab countries in the middle east whose governments don't allow US military bases:
  • Syria
  • Yemen
So it seems like Iran offers you two options. Accept a US military base in your country and occasionally suffer an Iranian attack until the US and Israel finish of the regime or don't accept a US military base in your country and let an Iranian backed militia rape and loot all across your country (at least until, in the case of Syria, Israel decides to wipe them out).

Either way, it seems like Iran creates big problems for you and only Israel and the US will fix them.

The truth of the Royal Navy is that only one of their carriers can be deployed, but they currently don't have enough deployable ships to make up a carrier group. Their fleet is small, poorly maintained and they lack the ability to carry out operations while maintenance is being done.

Another thing to consider, which I forgot to mention last night, is that the starmer government had gone out of its way to reduce immunity against legal warfare for individual military personnel, with the intent that they can be left open to lawsuits and prosecution for actions they took under orders. This after starmer, in his previous career as a human rights lawyer, took part in civil prosecution of veterans in an attempt to punish them for following legal orders. He knows he can't send more than nominal defensive support to the middle east, because the rank and file will refuse to take part in anything that could later be construed as a human rights case or some sort of international law case. If he sent the qe2, or even just a destroyer to Aden, there's a non-zero chance the crew would mutiny.

Have you ever seen drama between two women in a friendgroup and when one of them realizes she's in the wrong and she starts selling everybody else in the frinedgroup out? "WELL CAROL SAID SHE THOUGHT YOU HAD GOTTEN FAT!" "MARIE HAS BEEN CHEATING THIS ENTIRE YEAR!" "MAXINE IS DOING COCAINE EVERY FUCKING WEEKEND!" and the other women just kind of sit there because they think that will make it stop and they'll eventually give up?

That's what this is.

I think it's as simple as them not having functional militaries.

Yes and no. Drone terrorism against civilian targets will be a concern in the future very likey. Against military targets less so for EW reasons I'm going to get into.
The US has system that will cook a FPV's drones electronics, the Iraqi drone got through to an unoccupied section of base and was fiberoptic for which there are limited counter measures against.

I'm aware but I'm also certain counter- counter measures will eventually come out as technology is generally tit for that. All I know is that right now Iran done Fucked up, the consequences will never be the same!

Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Ali Larijani:
I’ve heard that the remaining members of Epstein’s network have devised a conspiracy to create an incident similar to 9/11 and blame Iran for it.

Iran fundamentally opposes such terrorist schemes and has no war with the American people.

Why would we do a false flag Op if we're already at war with you? Then again, Lucky Larry just bought the US Bank building in LA...

Why does anyone take Tucker seriously anymore? He's been caught lying numerous times within the past year. Remember when he claimed he was detained by Israeli officials when he went to Israel, and then airport security footage showcased that he in fact wasn't detained

The same reason they take trump seriously after he lied multiple times too I’d imagine. The problem with American politics is that if you trust anyone it means you trust a chronic liar
