Anyway Israel and America have been blowing up residential buildings in Iran for a long time.

One side sends a single precision strike that destroys a single apartment, killing a leader of Hamas or IRGC General.
The other goes with the shotgun approach, shooting ballistic missiles and wildly inaccurate kamikaze drones in the general direction of people who hurt their feelings.

But sure buddy, Israel and America have been "blowing up residential buildings in Iran".

Any building can be a legitimate military target.
A random hotel with zero military function is not it.

Western tech: Precision measured in meters.
Iran/Russian/Chinese tech: Deviation measured in hundreds of meters.

And that is even giving them likely too much credit, as it assumes they are actually trying to hit military targets in the first place instead of what is much more likely, aiming at high density urban areas in the hopes of killing at least a kid somewhere playing soccer.

Anyone making these "both sides" comparisons and arguments is a fucking retard.

Not sure if shared already.

Rubio sounding a little manic and nervous and looking a little sweaty. Interesting comments on "imminent threat." Wonder if we'll ever get more info on the  WMDs actual specific intel.

Rubio and the Trump administration as a whole are throwing out these various reasons for military action like "imminent threat" and "Israel forced our hand" to protect the delicate sensibilities of pansy doves who don't understand how the world works. The real reasons are thus:
  • Iran, one of America's top geoplitical enemies for decades, is in a once-in-a-generation weakened state to be taken out for good with minimal expenditure.
  • Taking out Iran brings stability to the Middle East as a whole, thereby reducing expenditure in the long run for security of American interests in the region, especially if Israel and Saudi Arabia take charge in keeping the peace and making sure Iran isn't taken over by new radicals.
  • Taking out Iran removes a Russian ally and demonstrates American strength and resolve to Russia, pressuring Russia to make concessions and end the war with Ukraine.
  • Taking out Iran removes a Chinese ally and demonstrates American strength and resolve to China, pressuring China to lay off of Taiwan.
The "imminent threat" could be two weeks or two months or two years or two decades. Shit doesn't matter. It's just soft messaging to sell to people who are naive about the realities of the world. The negotiations were the Iranians last chance to give up their nuclear ambition in any timeframe, and they refused.

Also, even when the average service member does deploy, most of their time deployed is basically just them doing their normal job, just on some base in the desert.
I never heard even a single scary story from anybody I knew that deployed during the time I knew them. For every person I knew it was just 6 months spent in the desert with nothing crazy.

And thats the worst case scenario.

Soldiers I've met have told me stories about their deployments in Africa being glorified vacation resorts.

Is America going to invade? No? Then nothing is going to happen. Morale bombing doesn't work, we learned this in WWII.

terror bombing to break morale didn't work most of the time, that is correct. it did work in japan where the nuking of hiroshima and nagasaki successfully terrorized the emperor into surrendering his country to america, but i don't think nukes are on the table here so i don't expect an outcome like that in iran.
however, strategic bombing to destroy and cripple enemy industry and logistics infrastructure worked very well. it was a huge factor in bringing about the decline and eventual defeat of german forces on the eastern (and western) front.

He did sound manic to me but in an "extremely excited" sense. Not surprising given that regime change has been a wet dream of neocons for generations at this point.

The only way I see this working is if the US and Israel-just spawn camped down to the local sewage municipal guy for civilian leadership and sergeants in the Artesh/IRGC(or whatever the equivalent is)-and the country disintegrated.

But that would require months of strikes at best-though I could be wrong.

The recent deaths are actually great for Iran. The mullahs are literally BOOMERS living out of touch as if it's still the 80s and they just awed the world with their hostage crisis. The boomer clerics were all anti-nuclear enrichment with the IRGC pushing for that. Remember the fatwa on nuclear weapons? That's boomer hippie garbage that belongs in the 20th century. It's not even a "theocratic" state anymore. They gave up on the hijab rules years ago when it just became too untenable for cosmopolitan Iranians who make the Middle and Upper classes to acquiesce to the Clerics on that anymore. The downgrading of the credit rating were what really kicked that into a fever pitch since the business class in Iran got iced out of lots of markets for that and now the chinks have their balls in their vice. The massive crackdown on their riots and protestors is what any state would do against it's own people if they're chimping out too much except the US when they're black.

Keep killing the useless gerontocracy that's kept this conflict so piss weak for ages now and let the Zoomer/Millennial IRGC finally get their way and we'll see Iran become a nuclear armed metropole within the decade. There is NO fucking way Globohomo is doing an actual land invasion of Iran when they can just rely on their air assets and try to psyop the shitlibs still left in Iran to throw their lives away for that retard Reza who sold off his own daughter in a marriage to a Jewish banker, Bradley Sherman to get support for his pathetic grandstanding.

Are we meant to believe the country that can hardly keep track of its own leaders' locations and wellbeing, sometimes falsely reporting on their deaths, can tell which hotels American soldiers are based in and even more specifically where in those hotels they are? It's already a shocker that these guys have the capacity to open google maps and find where the American bases are located.
 
SaidNoOneEver said:
Hotels become military targets once a military evacuates it's soldiers from the base into the hotel to avoid the strike on the base. This shouldn't need to be explained yet here we are.

Off-duty personnel are not a legitimate military target.
That shouldn't need explaining, yet here we are.

Your idea is literally that armed forced should target medical evacuation zones.
Let's bomb the houses of reservists, the military evacuated them off-base to their homes.

The IRGC are like Iran's SS, a bunch of indoctrinated fanatics. Do you really think any one of them would commit to a deal?
Click to expand...
when they saw that the war was lost, many in the SS were looking for deals to save their own skin. even himmler himself was trying to negotiate a surrender with the western allies at one point, when hitler learned of this he declared himmler a traitor and stripped him of his ranks.

Yes we can believe that because Iran has a strong intel apparatus spread out around the world. Unless we've been lied to for decades about that too.

It's entirely plausible that the immigrant slave laborers in Qatar, UAE, etc happily told their friends back home where the Americans were moving into.

Double-tapping first responders is a fine tactic in my book. War is about winning.

lol, one of the raped kikeslaves fighting for the jews who was injured in a counter-terrorist attack by Iran is Owen B. Gerow, a fag from Framington, Massachusetts. Gerow initially thought advertising that his pussy was grazed via his father, David Gerow, would be good for his sex life, but then got embarrassed and asked the media not to mention his name. It continues to be in the url for the title of every article about how the mean Iranians bombed him just for taking part in the blood sacrifice of 150 little girls for international jewry. Gerow works as a despatcher at Sudbury PD, a job that is 90% populated by women and 100% populated by those who 'receive' during 'sex'.

You are kvetching about American soldiers thousands of mile from home being apparently “off-duty” and not military targets but think American “precision” strikes on the apartments of Iranian government officials are totally heckin valid military targets, notwithstanding the fact that muh precision strikes also turn their wives, children, and neighbours into red goo.

I don’t feel offended by either of them disregarding civilians but you’re lying to yourself when you pretend that the Americans are morally superior in this aspect just because they’re technologically superior.
 
SaidNoOneEver said:
It's not over and now nobody can say what constitutes an attainable "victory".
Click to expand...
Destruction of the Iranian air force.
Destruction of the Iranian navy.
Wiping out IRGC leadership.
Destruction of ballistic missile stockpiles.

And of course, defensive goals, i.e. not losing a carrier, not getting an AWACS shot down, not letting large numbers of troops get killed or wounded.

I’ve been a rabid pro-Israel guy since junior high, but even if I wasn’t already there, the fact that the trannies, the tankies, the Nazis, and the Islamists are all unified on this one subject would seriously make me feel pretty confident that Israel is the good guy.

If an Arab military manages to shoot down semi-modern aircraft (even if they’re friendlies, as long as they don’t harm the pilots), I’m personally more inclined to reward an unusual level of competent education than punish them for being overzealous

Maybe if they can maintain this level of competence they can actually fight against a terrorist army instead of immediately surrendering or defecting.

Also didn't Israel say Iran had around 1000 missiles like 12 hours ago? It means they took out 80% of missiles under a day.

CTR already explained it, but used some jargon that might just confuse the issue. The tweet is about launchers, not rockets. TELs are launchers

Considering some of the clunkers that Iran tried to sell us last year I’m going to call this cope until they prove otherwise.

Grunts? No. Air crew from the tankers and cargo planes? You bet your ass they ain't staying in the barracks like some fucking Private. Slight powerlevel but I talked to a tanker crew in line at the commissary that left the Gulf before this and they were staying in one of the hotels that got hit.

I'm new to the Agenda Free sphere, but he's currently crashing out about how he

"can't just go to the store and buy cams"
"they cut the cams as soon as the alerts go off"
"THERE IS NO TEL-AVIV CAM RIGHT NOW"

This COMPLETELY explains the 48k watching.
