Iran Crisis & the 2026 War between Iran and the United States, Gulf States, and Israel - Please focus on news and coverage, not argumentation.

Shattered.

they're even more retarded than you'd think, even Putin is just doing video-conferences. These guys just gotta hangout in person

This is a middle eastern/eastern thing. You can see it in westoids too, but its nearly universal in the east.- Arabs all the way through Gooks. If they cannot physically see you, you are deceiving them - working against them or slacking. Basically low-trust turd-world mindset.

I had to deal with one as a PM on a project at work. Good lord did he seethe when I just ignored his presenteeism bullshit. he tried to escalate with management who just asked "Ok, but is the work actually being done one schedule" *shows work is being done AHEAD of schedule and all delays are due vendors or the other teams on the projects* "Ok then. Call us when metrics aren't being hit and timelines aren't met, otherwise accept people have different ways they work and we support that here."
he ended up being fired for porn on his work computer.

Between this, Venezuela, and China's war materiel being shown to be fucking worthless, it's all driving me to believe in a conspiracy that the whole world sans the US has been saber-rattling with no meaningful military strength to back it up for the last 50 years and that no other world power even actually has nukes.
Always has been. LockMart , RayRay, and G-daymn have been helping carry the fiction.

Iran has now reverted to a master war strategy of firing one missle at Israel at a time.
Unironically a possibly decent strategy. Try to exhaust Israeli interceptors, when they start to flag then unleash your missile spam.

Iranian missiles suck tho, and I know I'm giving them far too much credit.

I eagerly await for the cope the "multipolar world" faggots will be providing us in the coming weeks. I already have The Duran and Academic Agent notifications turned on for pro Russia cope, but I'll be sorely missing the pro China cope channels.
I'm multipolaring so hard right now dude. So fucking hard I'm about ... I'm I'm gonnna BROOOOOOOOOOOCS

I'm surprised at how anemic the strikes have been so far - Iran is fighting a war for survival, I expected nothing less than the mass bombardment of civilians in order to exert maximal pressure on the Gulf, but they aren't killing anywhere near enough civilians for that to work. I wonder if this is because the Iranian high command is still in disarray from yesterday's assassination strikes, or if Iran has been weakened so much by the 12 day war that they are unable to mount a more effective response.
Iranian commanders just had their government decapitated. There are protestors in the streets. They have to really think "Do I want to be the guy launching missiles on targets on the orders of a dying regime?" and then also add in the guys launching the missiles are likely to get ACKed by Kike F-35s.

I know leftists don't care and will still cry about their big daddy islamic republic because of muh 6 gorillian starved palestinian infants (Iran is not uninvolved in that conflict escalating time and time again) but brown on brown violence is the middle eastern way of life

I will start caring about the lives of browns only once they do.

Bahrain is the home of the US fifth Fleet. Striking the naval base might make it hard for the 5th Fleet to resupply.
They hit the administrative offices, and thye had been evacuated days ago.

Never kimmy knows his place and knows not to act up with orange man.
Unironically yes. North Korea;s strategy is "a shrimp swimming amoung whales"

To be fair, it's not like Trump can get re-elected.

Or can he? Not like the rules apply anymore!
Trump can't be elected President Of the United States.

Right now he's exploring runs for President of Venezuela and President of Iran. Soon Cuba.
 
Iran is hitting strategic and operational targets within the Gulf states.

Iran also hit an Early Warning radar which makes it hard for Israel and the US to see and therefore intercept Missiles.

Iran has been hitting airbases which both punish the Gulf states for supporting the US and make it easier to conduct strikes. There are likely radar stations and American Troops at these places.

Things are likely being kept quiet as far as US personnel but there are definitely casualties.

Do you know what the “strategic” purpose is of bombing hotels and shopping malls in neighbouring countries? Or is this really just Samson option shit.
 
I don’t believe Iran was actually a credible threat.
They aren’t a credible threat militarily but their money was.

It wasn’t just USAid that was funding all the lefty chaos in the world, it was Iran too.

Taking them off the chess board also puts pressure on Russia as it removes a lot of material support that Putin has.

This is actual smart geopolitical thinking. It doesn’t matter what happens now. They could descend into a decades long civil war and just as long as we’ve got the oil fields secure then it doesn’t matter that they’re killing each other, they’re not funding our enemies to kill us.
 
didn't the Saudi's already side with Israel and the US cuz Iran hit them
That's the point, til this point Iran has been targeting military targets (early warning radar, navy bases, airfields). As things get more desperate I absolutely expect them to start striking infrastructure (oil storage, oil wells, oil pipelines). This is the part where they want to make it hard for us to keep forces in the region operating, but eventually they will just make everyone pay for not intervening. What do they have to lose, it's their version of the Samson option.
 
The cope from this faggot and his fans is hilarious (afaik the girl school bombing was due to an iranian missile that failed to take off).
Are we 100% sure that the the Iranians accidentally bombed the school?
The air defense failure and the school were in completely different parts of the country. Israel just likes to blow up places like hospitals, schools, and houses of worship.
 
"Oh no any amount of children dying is too much (:_( Iran's retarded missiles hitting their own children are totes America's fault. Hand off of Iran!"
 
>week after week of all sorts of bad things happening to white people that could easily be blamed on jews with simple mental gymnastics
>A&N threads are normal, buisness as usual
>shit brown muslims start dying
>A&N suddenly erupts with all sorts of accounts I never hear from spewing about how this a heckin bad thing for white people because jews jews jeeeeeeeeeeeeews

It's so obvious once you see it.
I first noticed it with Shiloh Hendrix. There seems to be a concerted, persistent COINTELPRO gayop targeting KF whenever there's breaking news, and the only strategy they have is to pepper every page with nuisance naysaying. I wonder where it's coming from. 🤔
 
4 injured.

Bahrain, Manama.
The Five-star Crowne Plaza was struck

Qatar, Doha.
More footage of different attacks.

UAE Sharjah.
Most of the attacks has been focused on Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Also please stop shitting up the thread with bickering, at this point I am seeing more pages filled with them rather than resources.
Pity, would've liked to visit the region someday
 
Sharjah is an Emirate just like Dubai and Abu Dhabi
its not a little neighborhood.
Sharjah, and to the same extent Ajman are basically just districts of Dubai at this point due to the fact the only thing separating it from Dubai is a highway.

Shia Islam is a very interesting religion
I do find the development of religions a very interesting topic.
Split it from any preconceived notions or feelings you have towards a particular faith, it's genuinely interesting.
With Twelver Shia, which developed a little later than Sunni, you can see that they might've been a little more influenced by Catholicism with its own semi-formal, hierarchical clergy and quasi-Saints in the form of the 12 Imams. The Shia even believe Muhammed hand selected a leader of the church similar to Jesus selecting Peter to be the leader of the Church.

I imagine from the POV of a devout Shia, this would be some absolute bullshit.
1772361478807.png
It'd be the equivalent of the Catholic Church deciding every Cardinal or Arch-Bishop was now "a Pope" and the current-Pope was now a super-Pope.

I mean didn't the Saudi's already side with Israel and the US cuz Iran hit them?
Its been at lest 50 pages since we've gone over this.

To make this short: Arabs are shiftless preening faggots obsessed with status and rules lawyering the words of a Pedrast from 680 AD to justify their behavior. The reason they hate the Jews so much is because it is like looking into a mirror and they don't like what they see. (and the same for Jews hating Arabs)

The Gulf States including the Saudis forbade the US to use their territory or airspace or striking Iran, and made this well known, even as the Saudis pushed the US to bomb Iran.

The reason for this is that it is illegal under islam for a muslim to attack another muslim or conspire with Infidels against them... UNLESS its justified and one of those justifications is self defense. Basically you can defend yourself, avenge your family and your honor... you know a million loopholes.
KSA knew that the minute Iran was struck, Iran would attack the KSA - they are powerful regional rivals, its a foregone conclusion - and once Iran did, KSA could thus now openly collaborate with the western infidel as it is self defense against unprovoked aggression, and retarded austere religious scholars couldn't say they were being apostates or Iran was justified in their jihad.

Iran had standing orders to to missile units that if Iran was struck and no further orders given (because leadership might be dead), they were to start launching. Those targets included Israel and US bases, but also all Gulf states with "To Whom it May Concern" as targeting coordinates. The idea is that you bomb Dubai and now the UAE begs the US to enter peace negotiations so thye aren't being hit. Iran promised they do this if attacked and are retardedly delivering on that promise.
And while this seems retarded and counter productive, its Arabs they were hitting. I'd give it at least 40% chance of working except that everyone had been spending a month getting on the same page.

But make no mistake, the Saudis were baiting the Iranians. They were 100% ready to go once attacked and given justification. They were letting the US use Saudi bases for logistics on the build up.
(they are still crappy shiftless 'allies' tho.)

in summation, glass the entire fucking middle east.

They aren’t a credible threat militarily but their money was.

It wasn’t just USAid that was funding all the lefty chaos in the world, it was Iran too.

Taking them off the chess board also puts pressure on Russia as it removes a lot of material support that Putin has.

This is actual smart geopolitical thinking. It doesn’t matter what happens now. They could descend into a decades long civil war and just as long as we’ve got the oil fields secure then it doesn’t matter that they’re killing each other, they’re not funding our enemies to kill us.
Additionally they have now pissed off all the gulf states who previously were vacillating between Iran and Saudi Arabia (and more recently, Turkey) to try to get prestige and gibs. Iranian "charities" are going to be shutdown even if the regime doesn't collapse.

Imagine being a Russian and looking at how an actual superpower deals with "stuff" with their allies?

Less than 24 hours in, zero actual casualties. Iranian leadership: wiped the fuck out.

Meanwhile, you are stuck in mud with failing to conquer a former republic 4 years in...

One more humiliating factor to this: US is doing it halfway around the globe. Russia can't do their operation in a neighbouring country.

Definition of a superpower is the ability to project power around the whole globe. United States has once again demonstrated that capability. Russia can't even deal with a local conflict.

If Russia didn't have nuclear weapons, I can guarantee you even the European NATO countries would be contemplating attacking Russia, because that is just such a sorry ass excuse of a military power. Finland alone would be able to seize St. Petersburg in like 48 hours TBH.
 
Am I to understand you believe that deposing a dictator who murdered 40,000 people a month ago is somehow immoral?
My opinion can be summarized as follows:
"Whenever the standard of freedom and independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will be America’s heart, her benedictions and her prayers. But she does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the wellwisher to freedom and independence for all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own. She well knows that by once enlisting other banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extridition, in all wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition which assume the colors and usurp the standard of freedom….She might become the dictress of the world but would no longer be ruler of her own spirit….Americans should not go abroad to slay dragons they do not understand in the name of spreading democracy.”
 
Iranian drones have just struck a large shopping mall in Sharjah Dubai.

Just why? It's like with Ukraine, it just makes those countries justify being involved by having neighbours that attack them by sheer incompetence.
Would Trump Tower Dubai count as a strategic target?
I just had a thought of what would happen if they accidentally hit one of the massive glass towers there. It will be crazy amount of damage.
