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

In general I don't think the thought process that the marines are going to take and hold Kharg is a very well thought out one.

For starters to get to the island to try and take it we'd have to just sail our naval vessals through the straight, something I don't think they are likely to do and risk damage to the ships passing through before the straight is secure.

And for second I just think it would be an overly risky move to station a couple thousand troops to sit on the island as sitting ducks for Iran to start firing missiles and drones at.
It'd look like a combination of this,



this,




and this,


 
F15 pilot: "My plane has a machine gun."
A10 pilot: "My machine gun has a plane."
I've always wondered what it must feel like to depress the trigger and feel that gun let rip underneath your crotch. Do you think A-10 pilots need to take boner pills?

Say what you want about Democrats, but they really got the Repubs hooked in wars they promised not to start. They got 3d chess too, just asshole'ish.

Create a crisis that will definitely require aggressive touch in the rival presidency term.
 
Double rainbow in Tehran for Nowruz (Persian New Year celebration) today.



Nowruz messages from Pahlavi and his wife Yasmine as Week 3 of the campaign comes to a close. No, the Shah didn't give the signal to launch the Iranian Counterrevolution yet, but that was always unlikely for today as I've said before (weeks 4-6, so starting next week, were likelier candidates in keeping with the timeline Trump gave originally). Looks like we have at least one more week of Islamist assets being attrited away, and more sabotage/intel-providing/drive-by shootings for those Immortal Guard guys to do.




The more interesting thing is that Khamenei Jr. hasn't delivered a Nowruz message of his own to counter Pahlavi's. Well, technically he gave a ludicrously :optimistic: written statement on how the war's going which was read by a presenter on Iranian state TV, however again this wasn't a video or even audio recording of him, which is wild because his dad used to visibly deliver such statements consistently on past Nowruzes. Lends further credence to the theory that he's dead & his election was basically the Islamists attempting the El Cid trick in the modern era, or at best he's in a coma.


Speaking of which, some more details on those unconfirmed rumors about Khamenei Jr. succumbing to his injuries which started floating around last night. Tl;dr they finally had to pull the plug on him because this mountain nigger couldn't wake from his coma & his lungs were filling up with blood. Consume with a healthy amount of kosher salt until & unless further confirmations come in, of course.

Finally, IRIB (state TV) got hacked yet again today, the hackers proceeded to broadcast Noor Pahlavi's Farsi speech from the other day.

Shameless plug for the KF DCS attack squadron activation.

Fly an A-10A, A-10C, or A-10C II in high fidelity.

As a rule of thumb, i don't care about news coming from "sources".

Also i have already shared that, you're late.
there's also just the fact that even if it is confirmed true and not namelessly sourced.

saying "the pentagon has detailed plans for X" doesn't actually indicate it's likely to happen. The pentagon has plans for fucking everything, they have people in place who's job it is to draft of plans for every possible contingency, we likely have plans on file for what it would take if we ever needed to invade every ally we have on the globe, it doesn't mean we're going to do it.

Planners plan, it's what we pay them to do.
