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

footage from Bahrain of another drone strike on the US Naval base.. I don't have a telegram to check the date of the video, someone else can do so if they would like. I would imagine this base has already been evacuated and abandoned at this point, considering how much it's been targeted.

Footage from the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, claiming to show an alleged KC-135 shot down over western Iraq. Obviously can't see shit in this, so waiting for confirmation of the downing from other sources, just posting for posterity in case it ends up being true. Morbid little fact, if it was indeed shot down the KC-135 does not come equipped with parachutes for the crew to bail out, so they would have gone down with it.

lmao, that's a lot of dirt.

I did not know that India has send its best against evil Iraaaan.

lmao, that's a lot of dirt.

My bad SOULS. Yet allow me to further pontificate, Irans's plan is to make the whole of Mesopotamia squeal, the Americans cant defend you, even when we strike you they withdraw all their defenses to Isreal, what is even the point of allowing them to station men in your nation? Pretty good plan you ask me

 

[David Floyd George]

Pretty good plan you ask me

Nobody did, and I assure you nobody will.

Some speculation that, rather than taking an island, the Marine unit could be involved in helping clear the Strait of drones and speedboats.

This is a retarded plan, what next?
How the fuck will Iran get goodwill with its neighbors after?
You think the entire gulf states even if obliterated, will allow Iran to control 99% of their economy by strangling their oil exports at will?
What next? Iran closes the strait when it doesnt get a trade deal with europe, when europe doesn't sanction israel?

If this plan had worked, Yemen would be unified under the houthis, since they did close the red sea for a while, Saudi Arabia, didn't go lol nope, nothing we can do guys, and kick US troops out in 2023.
Or shit like Sudan, or Libya, heck even Saddam's Iraq post 1991, being a retarded lunatic who seems threatening because you didn't quit after being a pile of ashes isn't good long term diplomacy.

>PLEASE BIBI, I WANT TO DIE FOR ISRAEL

Given the incredibly low casualty rate one has to delude themselves incredibly hard to keep copypasting this delusion.

Israel themselves have a higher casualty count than the Americans do, so we're doing a real bad job at "dying for Israel" as much as your brain worms keep telling you that.

 

[HodgePodgeRogerDodger]

The amount of cowardly faggot doomers in this thread never ceases to amaze me. The kind of people who would rather get on their knees and lick the assholes of the Chicoms and hordes of Muslim rapists while begging to be their slaves rather than put an ounce of faith in a president who had any guts to try and take any action for any greater good. Nothing of any importance doesn't involve a certain amount of rationally-considered risk, but doomer faggots want to claim defeat even before the game is played out.

I feel like a major point of contention is people who are wholly political animals about this (Drumpf is finished, brown people are unstoppable/ MAGA! Go god-emperor!), Jews, Groypers, doomers, people who enjoy a good shit show, and military bombing enthusiasts (war is pretty rad if you can ignore the human suffering) and actually discussing the happenings. Some manner of discussion is good, but low effort bait and Stud shitting up the thread with niggerlicious takes pleases no one.

I don’t mind people who are doing the “I don’t want war with Iran, I am upset.” They are fine and counter the endless optimism of the Jewish Kiwis. They are a good thing have because they will bring up counter narratives. The fucking low quality trolls and Groyper Jew spergs do ruin the thread. Remember to report them and tip your local Janny.

I am not against intervention if it benefits us. I am wary, but Trump’s philosophy for military shit is “kill their leaders, I have your back” to the military. My own view is was this something where Trump and the military looked at Iran and the Houthis creating doctrine for attacking ships and went “this is the best chance we will have to break them”. The US has a lot to gain. Iran basically has been preparing for Ragnorok/ Armageddon, Chris Hansen since the 80’s. They are the most retarded Muslim nation because unlike others they fund terror networks blatantly and openly.

Also, I am a self-interested asshole trying to get into petroleum and natural gas research positions. This war directly benefits me either way.

 

[Kaakaapoo]

Can we stop sperging and post information about the conflict, please? side conversations are fine, but take the shit slinging to mass debates. All your bickering back and forth makes it annoying to skim through the thread for actually relevant posts.

Anyways, getting some reports about the IAF allegedly striking the headquarters of the Nepalese UN Peacekeeping forces in Lebanon. looking for more concrete sources to back that up.



also, getting a lot of conflicting information about Bibi, arranging from him having gone missing, stepping down from his office, or even being killed. Some of the allegations of his death include wild claims that he was killed by a hypersonic missile. Not going to post any of it cause it's all just social media posts with no supporting media to back it up, just making a note of it.

In fact, Kuwait and Americans have killed more americans than Iran in 12 days of war.

The idea that any country can just fight wars and defend positions with absolute perfection to the point that it does not lose any soldiers, has no equipment destroyed or facilities damaged is absolutely absurd.

The fact that we have people smugly crowing about a single transport aircraft shot down and a dozen soldiers dead is the USA somehow LOSING, says more about the absurd power level our enemies project onto us then it does about the reality of the situation.

You faggots in the same breath say Russia losing entire divisions worth of tanks and soldiers against the second poorest nation in Europe is inevitable victory. America is so good at war you view the loss of a single air refueling tanker as a victory for Iran on par with Scipio at Zama.

centcom released a statement about this saying it just went down but was not fired at. this was on thursday

https://www.centcom.mil/MEDIA/PRESS-RELEASES/Press-Release-View/Article/4432850/loss-of-us-kc-135-over-iraq/

TAMPA, Fla. -- U.S. Central Command is aware of the loss of a U.S. KC-135 refueling aircraft. The incident occurred in friendly airspace during Operation Epic Fury, and rescue efforts are ongoing. Two aircraft were involved in the incident. One of the aircraft went down in western Iraq, and the second landed safely.

This was not due to hostile fire or friendly fire.

More information will be made available as the situation develops. We ask for continued patience to gather additional details and provide clarity for the families of service members.

lol I think ana kasparian of all people posted this on xitter.
he is not dead.

centcom released a statement about this

Yes, I heard about that, but I wasn't sure if this was the same tanker or not so I still posted the video. information is this conflict is really muddy, best to catalog everything then figure out what's duplicate reporting later.

he is not dead

yeah, like I said it was all just a bunch of wild social media posts, so I wasn't going to give any credence to it beyond just making a note of it.

I have no idea how the Iran thing is going to play out. I've been mildly nervous since the operations started. But so far, I've seen no rational reason for anyone to take a hardcore doomer position on the matter. Iran backed by China has become an increasing threat to the US. So, if the regime is vulnerable and there's good strategy, I don't see why they shouldn't be curb-stomped into oblivion. I don't see any good counter argument other than some people would rather do nothing at all until the balance of world power shifts and then it's too late. You don't stay a super power by letting your enemies gain enough power to cripple and dethrone you.

He is dead, and I have PROOF:


From one of the latest 'videos' from the Zionist Entity. Look at his FIVE fingers.

The Zionist Entity cannot count. Not like us.

 

[Silly Fella]

I don't see any good counter argument

The main belief I think, of any American that supports Iran in this conflict, is that by leaving Iran alive they'd create a thorn in Israel's side that would hopefully hinder Jewish influence over us. This is akin to letting a tumor grow in the hopes that it would neutralize or hinder another one you find threatening, an overall bad idea that would just introduce more poison to your body.

For the 8th time this thread, Netanyahu has died! Inshallah, he is on his 9th life now and like the cat, surely now it is his last!

 

[Surfin Terf]

Ignorance of Iran, it's structure, it's history and it's people is not an argument.

"Haha all browns are the same" is fun for jokes but if you start unironically using that logic to supplement knowledge about actual conflicts going on then you need to go play with legos or some shit, you're wasting everyone's time including your own.

There are more similarities between Iraq and Iran than them both being brown Muslims… like have you looked at their names?!

The amount of die hard MAGA fanatics still on this site will never cease to amaze me,

jokes on you, I’m a straight-up TDS sufferer, but for my entire life everyone’s known that we would have a war with Iran and if we did it after they got nukes it would be a disaster, and Trump was the only president stupid enough to not realize that it would be unpopular to finally take the plunge and deal with this nightmare we’ve been staring down for decades.
Thank god for this retard, he might not be a good president, but he’s doing a good thing.

Bibi has died 10 times in last two weeks! Jewish magic is really something to behold, Alhamdulillah!

Unironically based position, if 90 million iranians died tomorrow but gas got 2$ cheaper, no average american would care come november.
