Larry Silverstein, former owner of the Twin Towers, has purchased a tall building in LA, causing some to claim this is foreshadowing a west coast 9/11 to bolster public support for boots on the ground in Iran.
larry never got a cent of that insurance payout and likely lost money suing the insurance company after they refused to pay out some of the funds. all went to the 9/11 rebuilding effort.

Russian Israeli construction worker is stuck on his crane whenever the warning sirens go off so he holds onto his Israeli flag and sings the national anthem:


 
If the US goes back home with the Strait still closed, then the countries that need the Strait will come to an agreement with Iran. Because if the US leaves this issue unresolved, it will no longer be the guarantor for open waterways and safe global trade, in this region. At that point it will be cheaper and easier for other countries to come to terms with Iran than it is to make war upon it. A piece of the US empire will be lost. The one that controls the global oil market. Translation: He's either bluffing or the situation is fubar.
 
It doesnt sound like it completely failed and the carrier wasnt crippled. It took out 600 beds and all the laundry -- the fire spread to ventilation and injured around 200. Ship is still combatworthy but no use in delaying repairs. If we were in an existential war it'd still be good to go, but with a lot of angry and injured seamen.
200 injured, 600 quarters destroyed. That's a significant impact to the personnel on board and their combat effectiveness. If this is what we're angling for in here, It's embarrassing as fuck to the US navy that our crown jewel is a Jeet encrusted pyrite cube weakened by backed up toilets and lint fires in the year 2026.
 
IDF Drone strike eliminates 5 Iranian soldiers in western Iran



The IDF continues to eliminate Iranian terror regime operatives in western Iran.

Yesterday (Tuesday), an Israeli Air Force aircraft, acting on precise real-time IDF intelligence, identified five Iranian regime operatives operating at a military site in western Iran. Following the identification, the aircraft struck and eliminated the soldiers.

The Israeli Air Force continues its effort to locate and eliminate Iranian regime operatives in order to eliminate threats posed to the State of Israel.

Oh yeah its 100% embarrassing
 
It is entirely possible, in fact, probable, that no footage was captured by Iran. Given the advanced tech of that Carrier, I am highly skeptical a dryer lint fire was capable of that kind of damage as well. Something doesn't add up here.
Damage from a fire like this has become way more common than you think, mostly because of reduced budget for marine/coast guard firefighting.

Also what advanced tech? There are literally footage of her crossing the red sea from chinese tankers.

filmed by what? Gopro footage?
We had on the US side, nope, the Iranians didn't fire on it, to 'oh they fired but totally missed', to 'oh a fire broke out at exactly the same time they fired on us, totally no relation honest!'
Great you don't have an answer.

Considering just yesterday we bunker busted missiles they were using to threaten the Strait, Israel has agreed to help to secure it, and we still have 2,500 Marines on their way to likely secure Kharg, combined with that same statement including that we would "finish off" Iran, I'm gonna go with he's just fucking around with Europoors because they're cowards who suck.
 
Doesn't surprise me in the slightest. I've been hearing about problems with the Ford for nigh on a decade now. The laundry room caught fire because of course it did, it's that fucking Lemon, again.
 
I like that they picked a cool name, the Immortals (evoking ancient Persia), and not just some gay variant of the People's something, the Popular whatever or Liberation front shit.
They are militant Persian royalists. Calling themselves the "Immortals" is just a gimme. It's like naming a New England militia group "The Minutemen". What else are you gonna call it all things considered.

they can get up close footage of tanks being blown up in israel, but asking them to have a single camera ready for the biggest PR victory of the entire war? simply preposterous. the doomers would have you know there isn't a single functional camera left in iran! but they can still take down an aircraft carrier no problem. oh, what's that? a random dryer lint fire (one of the largest causes of fires in the entire world, and part of the ship that's actually quite deep internally, not on the outside where a drone could cause it damage? nah, the iranians have danny phantom drones. they can phase through the steel outside and then explode on the inside!

the iranians are superterrorists if you listen to these retards.
 
Are we seriously gonna pretend to think a fire on a boat is something small?

In general basic principles:
You have an iron tub in the water. Below deck you need a shitton of air circulation for ventilation, so it can spread rapidly.
Using too much water in fire suppression... eh.. It's a boat. Fill your sink, float a bowl, and start putting water in it. Get it?

~13% of the beds are gone, if it's 600 beds out of about 4200 cap.

Even a fire from dryer lint, especially if that's a fire that was only noticed a couple mins after igniting... I can easily believe that it caused all of this.
 
ngl co-workers were kinda giving me shit about leaving a dryer going just the other day
but I do keep up on my lint traps, and the lint tube shits it out nice and regular so it's not like I'm just derping it
 
Sure. And then the entire fire suppression system failed to the degree that it crippled the carrier to an extent?
Where are people getting this notion that the carrier is crippled when they've said it's fully operational

It left some of the sleeping quarters unusable, operation of the carrier is still fine.

The carrier has had design issues from minute one of it existing and it needs to be addressed, it has also been at sea for far longer than originally intended
 
Cringe.mp4

and this guy is the leading figure for the Pro-Ayatolah university students and liberals who think his word is gospel
same groups that keep downplaying Islamic terrorism whilst actively promotion actual islamic terrorist groups
like Hamas, Hezbollah, Iranian religious hardliners and Houthis,



...Cenk and his nephew needs to be checked if they received funding from Iran.
even in forms of donations. at this point.
Why are you calling this guy a liberal? He constantly shits on liberals, and is a complete socialist.

it's a big deal, but it's a big deal in the same way Y2K was. if you don't handle it, it will cause big problems, but it's not nearly as big a deal now as it was in the 60s, because we have entire guys whose only job is fire suppression. it's why raisin going berserk over his false information about the ford fire is hilarious. he probably listened to stud about what happened to it or something.

are you fucking retarded? TWO injured. 600 quarters were unusable DURING the fire, you fucking moron.
