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

[Queen Aleena]

We really shouldn't be bickering about this. We have common interests for the most part. Europe is not doing America a favor per se, but America should realize that Europe is a very big factor in the global power projection capability that US has.

Let's just be friends, c'mon.

I've never encountered a European with opinions on world politics who was not a fucking moron. Most believe they are being oppressed by the American military and they are just a few "common sense" pen swipes away from the resurrection of the glorious Ragusian Empire, or whatever irrelevant extinct entity they believe will resurrect from the year 1608 to somehow tard wrangle the planet.

Skimming a random source, it seems that congress would have to authorize conscription. There are already enough units for a regional engagement, and full conscription would be too unpopular to implement.

Two more weeks is a joke from the Zigger Invasion

Anybody who unironically believes there will be a draft in the US is a drooling retard.

 

[Meat Target]

do they have zyn in Iran? I cant go to war if i dont get my zyn

Bring a stash of zyns, dip, pornos, and Chef Boyardee. You'll be the most powerful man in the unit.

There is not going to be a draft for fuck's sake lol

In addition to the Jews, it seems like there could be plausible American interests for a successful operation. Mainly in disrupting BRICS and the Belt and Road initiative. Potentially allowing American dictation of trade.

BRICS is a fucking joke without American "help". Hell they quietly tried (and failed) to make the S Saudi Arabia instead of South Africa because they've only continued the march to Zimbabwe 2 since the mid 00s when BRICS was first coined.

And I took Russia's side when the Ukrainian adventure began, but I'd say they've more than adequately shown their asses after four years of this

I think we need to start drafting in more of McNamara's morons so we can at least thin the pool a bit.

 

[Boney]

There's at least a tactical reason that affects Americans in the case of Taiwan, Iran means nothing to Americans.

That's not true. I am, for the first time in years, totally okay with taxes that turn dollars into bombs falling on Iran. I feel very positively affected by this.

Exactly, it just seems to be a popular joke.

Drafting sub-80 IQs would be doing a heckin raycissm though

“First, we’re destroying Iran's missile capabilities, and you see that happening on an hourly basis.

Second, we're annihilating their Navy. We’ve knocked out already 10 ships. They're at the bottom of the sea.

Third, we're ensuring that the world's number one sponsor of terror can never obtain a nuclear weapon.”

Fucking retard.

You'd be bitching still if we were fighting that war instead.

Saying things like this demonstrates you hold the opinions you do because you are stupid, not because of your lived experiences and enviroment.

For those wondering, we have the industrial capacity currently in place to replace any missle used by 10x over the course of a year. We are building to the point where we can replace at a rate of 100x. (Over all numbers not specific systems)

Obviously units stationed in Taiwan, Korea and Japan all had to pool their missiles and ship them to Israel.
There are ZERO stockpiles left anywhere, because it makes total sense that the entire military has to disarm itself for a tiny fraction to fight on the other side of the world.

Typical Tankies talking point to pretend the US only has enough ammunition to fight with with a small fraction of its forces at the same time, and only for 2 days before all missile, JDAM and cruise missiles stockpiles run out.

Ever since Russia invaded Ukraine it has been a constant talking point of these Niggers.

BRICS is a fucking joke without American "help". Hell they quietly tried (and failed) to make the S Saudi Arabia instead of South Africa because they've only continued the march to Zimbabwe 2 since the mid 00s when BRICS was first coined.

And I took Russia's side when the Ukrainian adventure began, but I'd say they've more than adequately shown their asses after four years of this

If you want to know how big of a fucking joke BRICS is, just look up the Chinese commercial jetliner program.
They have been developing it for the past 40 years, and they now buy turbines from GE because they cannot even get a normal civilian plane manufactured themselves.

All China has is in some way a derivative of Soviet/Russian tech, or (bad) attempts to clone US tech after they got their hands on some wrecks from Afghanistan/Iraq.

Europe saw that the Muslims couldn't maintain their air defenses enough to be a true threat to America so they brought the Muslims to their lands to attempt the same threat building there. Now it's just a matter of maintaining enough white people to keep the air defenses working whilst allowing the rest of their nation to become fully Muslim.

 

[Fanatical Pragmatist]

I know someone who works at Lockheed Martin who assures me we haven't and aren't stopping building missiles. Not like we're going to run out on a little shithole like Iran, we could probably flatten it 20 times over WITHOUT nuking it and still have enough to keep Xi in his place

Honestly the actual quantity of ballistic missile launches & interceptions have been surprisingly low.

I really wonder how bad Irans TEL fleet got attritioned last year if this is what we're seeing.

Drone threat is higher this time, but drones can be downed by everything from short-range AA/SAMs to helicopters to literal fucking lasers.

Skimming a random source, it seems that congress would have to authorize conscription. There are already enough units for a regional engagement, and full conscription would be too unpopular to implement.

Conscription is both unnecessary and unpopular, but it is also not necessarily a good thing and there is a serious argument to be made that conscript soldiers perform worse than volunteer soldiers.

US military doctrine following the lessons of Vietnam have emphasized a smaller force of voluntary, trained "professionals" rather than aimless conscript soldiers thrown into the meat grinder.

I agree the US benefits from Europe, and that the US and Europe should be friends.

What we don't like is Europeans acting like the superior senior partner and abusing the relationship.

 

[ThisIsGonnaBeGood]

Trump just walking past all those microphone vultures without even acknowledging them will never not be funny.

 

[Kingfisher9000]

Either a traditional draft or a "soft draft" where anyone who is unemployed and under a certain age is obliged to go die for Israel.

God I fucking hope so, it’d make this thread way easier to read.

 

[Myrtle the Turtle]

If midterms go to shit for Trump it's going to be because
1) the economy isn't recovering as fast
2) he didn't get DNC voter fraud fixed in time

Yeah its going be down to these two reasons. Job market is still terrible because he won't combat offshoring more than he currently is.

The only way I could see this going to shit for him directly is if it affects oil prices for longer than 2 months. The only reason Trump is treading water with affordability is because gas prices dropped. Democrats current attacks over Epstein don't move the needle and they can't get a clear message on the economy, but if the gas crutch collapses then voters won't need much convincing to vote blue. Its the economy stupid and Trump is only paying attention to the stock market.

New photo obtained by CBS News of Austin shooter, Ndiaga Diagne, shows him wearing a shirt of the Iranian flag under his "Property of Allah" hoodie.

Another thing that I hear one conspiracy blog warn about.

America is just unfit for TOTAL war and any conscription is too little and too late.

They won't even be enough recruits to beat down Russia or China.

I hope this does not happen or it will truly be the downfall of the empire.

 

[MugolEx]

Hezbollah fires one rocket and Israel fucking flattens them. You'd Think Lebanon would just dismantle Hezbollah at this point because they have been more of a problem then the original.
