Iran to the UN: We didn't close the Straight of Hormuz, it's just not open.

We've bamboozled Iran too many times, they won't talk to us anymore.
 
They can refuel planes mid-flight.

Can they re-arm planes mid-flight?
Yes. But not in the way you think. With the F-35's sensors and Battle Net it can control and provide guidance for munitions carried by other aircraft or drones. So the F-35 can remain loitering on station painting air and ground targets while F-15 Missile Trucks or even B-52's are queued up behind them delivering missiles.

Yes please, more of that.

Iran attacking a highly anti-Israel NATO country, are they retarded?
So yes.
I want to be clear Iran is retarded but they might be retarded like a fox, we'll have to see.

BACKGROUND
Please ignore all the frothing retards who are mind controlled by turd worlders or those infected with TDS from alloing Trump to live in their heads 24/7 rent free.
ITS IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE US TO INVADE IRAN CURRENT
I feel like grasping that fact, as well as posting hands for any turd worlders, should be mandatory before you are allowed to post in this thread.

I can prove this mathematically.
Iraq in 2003 had a population of about 40 million people. It is nearly all flat terrain. The US took over a year to put into place 500,000 personnel. They had significant contributions from the UK as well. (and Don't forget Poland) They took Iraq in about a month, but it was fairly touchy at times. It was well accepted that this was really not enough troops, it was fairly touch and go at times, and of course we all know that it was not even close to a force needed to stabilize a country.

Iran has a population of 90 million. The US would need DOUBLE that, 1 million troops, to conquer Iran on the ground. A more realistic number is 3 million, given the more difficult terrain any invasion force would encounter. Total US military including reserves is I believe 1.3 million.

Even if Trump decided to just go ahead and give the Democrats the midterms and reactivate the draft, it will take 10 weeks for the first wave of draftees to complete Basic Training. 3 to 20 more weeks for them to complete AIT.
Per an 11-series I talked to in between his meals of crayons, he said a new boot takes about 6-12 months to be not worthless.
Any unit going to the desert needs to go through 90 days of aclimitization training so they don't heatstroke out. The US would need to move supplies, warehousing for those supplies, housing, etc.

I am not going to go through US basic training throughput but:
EVEN IF TRUMP DECIDED RIGHT THIS MINUTE "WE ARE GROUND INVADING IRAN" WE WOULD NOT HAVE THE FORCES READY AND IN THEATER FOR ALMOST CERTAINLY TWO YEARS.

Now I want to caveat this by saying: IF the US was facing an imminent existential threat, say in the invasion of Canada by a bunch of chinks who took over Vancouver, the US would be able to have forces ready in months. They would be green and not overly combat effective, but it could be done.
Iran is NOT an imminent existential threat, it is a fight of the US' choosing. So we'd be ready in two years if we started full throttle today.

THE U.S. IS NOT THE ONLY COUNTRY WHO KNOWS THIS
Iran knows how many forces the US has, it knows that there is not enough infantry to invade their territory.

IRAN IS BEING UTTERLY RETARDED BECAUSE IRGC & THE MULLAHS BELIEVE THEY ARE UNDEFEATABLE INSIDE IRAN
I'm going to try to break down exactly why, but the Iranian government genuinely believes Allah will smite any invaders who try to invade Iran, especially ones from the Great Satan(s). This isn't ironic, this is what they actually believe. They are this retarded.

When Carter's helicopters exploded, and they captured US embassy staff and Carter did nothing more but Cuck, they started to get the feeling of invulnerability. For 47 years they have clowned on the west. Blew up barracks, funded terrorists, murdered jews, and all the got was sanctioned and strongly worded letters from the UN.
They only had issues with Iraq, and were pretty wary of Saddam until the US toppled him.
They took over the Iraq militia and even Axis of Evil Bush cucked to them.

You can see that CCP Asset who is a retard people keep posting talks about the "mountain fortress". They have thier Fuhrer Ayatollah Bunkers in the mountains, so the Regime believes they can retreat there and hold out indefinitely until Allah smites the infidels.

And again, they are not exactly wrong. The US lacks the forces in theater for an invasion. Israel doesn't have them either. Iraq is now their bitch; even with the government squatting in bunkers, the Shiite militia won't let the government attack Iran.
Turkey doesn't want to give up their wider designs on the region to be bogged down in Iran.
Afghanistan and Pakistan are lol. Turkmenistan lacks the armed forces. Saudi Arabia's military is a joke.
They might actually be right about Allah's divine protection.

This is why Iran is chimping out and hitting everyone around them. They are trying to cause chaos, turn the alliance on itself, and try to get the individual neighbors to try to make a deal with Iran to not be targeted. They are doing this because they believe there is no downside. Who cares if Azerbaijan is all butthurt we droned their airport? Allah's protection means we'll never suffer any real consquences.
 
Listening to the cope from the multi polarity crowd makes it all the more enjoyable to watch. Congrats guys. Iran gave a hanger in Cyprus a sunroof. The USA is definitely on the ropes now.
Yeah I'm not unhappy about it, it's just the sheer discrepancy in capabilities between an F-35 and some of the few planes Iran has managed to get airborne.

I also feel way worse for pilots than I do regime lackies.

I hope all the idiots cheering for the US/Israeli side understand that simply bombing random shit in Iran won't accomplish anything. Without boots on the ground you are never going to overthrow the Iranian government much less install a ZOG friendly regime.


Okay? And?

We are destroying their air forces, their ballistic missile forces, their navy, etc.

Why is regime survival a magical win condition?

This is honestly going better then desert storms air campaign. Which is shocking considering how many years Iran has held the US and Region hostage.
Part of it is it seems like the US learned lessons even in victory.

Like Vietnam was a lot of "okay wow how can we not repeat that mess?" but Desert Storm and 2003 OIF (invasion phase) seemed to be "so that went well but how can we do better?"
 
How effective would the Shah be as a geopolitical leader? What are his policy proposals? I’ve heard people say he was a complete retard college dropout with a sham degree, but is this true? He definitely has a lot of value as a figurehead, at the very least, but are there good democratic candidates to actually handle the administration of the country? Even Quaani and the other Mossad assets may be good enough.
 
Thanks confirming you are a butthurt Muslim. Your prophet is a pedophile gang leader, and you need to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord to save yourself.
Christianity isn't the original religion of Iran either, it was Zoroastrianism. If you think the US winning this war means Iran becomes a Christian country you've completely lost your mind.
 
Why are you talking about this war as if this was a conflict between Islam and the West ?

All the Muslim countries in the middle east besides Iran and its allies are ZOG puppets, why do you think Iran keeps striking US bases in Qatar, Dubai, Bahrain, the UAE etc ?
By chance have you heard of the crusades or the Muslim conquests?
And why do you think they chant death to America and not the rest of the Western World ? Could it be because they know that the Jews that run America want to destroy Iran and create a Greater Israel ?
Dude… it’s more so that the US is the new Rome. What greater enemy to Iran than the American empire?

Trump is going to pick the next leader of Iran and it won't be the "lightweight" son of the Ayatollah.

The IDF has issued an 'urgent warning' to Iranians in the Abbas Abad industrial area and the Shenzar industrial area ahead of airstrikes.
Calling it now. Grandpa BUFF is going to score an Air to Air kill before the F-22 gets one.
 
Aren't you the guy who was ecstatic that the american government didn't seem to care about American deaths? Also per Trump he said this war was about: nukes (lol), ballistic missiles, navy and proxies. Creating a failed state is not something in the interest of america, only israel. Why the fuck would we plunge the region into chaos because theyre being mean to their own populace?
Trump himself literally said that former is the primary objective - depriving Iran's theocratic regime of nice things and preventing them from becoming unresolvable, permanent problem for the region as well as America, which would inevitably happen if they're allowed to develop their nuclear program, which is something they were actively pursuing.
Regime change is merely a bonus objective, they aren't in it for nation building. It would be nice if someone like Khamenei doesn't end up leading Iran again, that means US won't have to bomb them again ~15 years from now for all the same reasons (assuming there's people with resolve to do so in charge at that point).

Thus they're going to do what they can to help local forces that could lead to positive outcome of establishing amicable government, without having to deploy their own troops and occupy the country. Disarming remainders of Khamenei's regime comes first, and whether platinum trophy is a possibility will become clear once dust settles.
It's entirely possible that what remains of Iran becomes a chaotic mess with constant infighting, which should at least prevent bad actors from consolidating the kind of power that could threaten other nations the way Iran did prior to recent saturated freedom-enrichment of high yield variety.
Most people would prefer scenario where a stable nation is established and Iranian citizens enjoy peaceful and prosperous life.

All that was outright stated by people like Trump and Hegseth in one way or another, but it's as if you only choose to hear what you want just to have something to bitch about.
