The fact that they're targeting neighboring Arab and Muslim countries seems to be an indication that the regime really does feel they have nothing left to lose at this point. It's a good sign.

It's a level of desperation we may never see again. I do wonder who is in charge and busy ordering attacks on every neighboring country with Khameini and most of his top government officials already dead. Hopefully Israel gets the rest of them soon before they actually provoke the entire Arab world to start bombing them indiscriminately which is an outcome nobody wants

If this does wind up making things better in the long run, how even more so deranged are the left going to seem?

Could be a target acquisition system like the AMRAAM or ramjet missle using active homing? I'm not sure what OS they use in those, does anyone know off hand?

Systems with active radar can target multiple systems at the same time and then in terminal phase it will lock on its top target. It will decide after launch on its own.

Not sure how they have them set up. If it has active radar it doesn't need any radar assistance outside of itself and BVR.

Could have been mass launched, I suppose.

I know this is slightly inappropriate but I find CNN's Kaitlan Collins incredibly sexy.

I want her to feed me grapes while talking about the American Revolution.

It's the jawline & the eyebrows.

Good use of "my" DDR5

If this guy makes an entire series from start to finish, using AI, with this quality? Even I, who don't like anime, would watch it.

The majority of these countries don't have the capacity to attack. Maybe, MAYBE Saudi Arabia. But even with all their military hardware they're struggling against the Houthis.

The idea is to force this countries to pressure the US to stop the attacks.

I flew out of Abi Dhabi airport just a few weeks ago .. smh attacking civilian stuff makes zero sense.

It's an amazing airport, too. I've been through there a few times. The dudes in the white dresses always crack me up though. Can't help it.

He already posted that once he has made 70 minutes of clips he's going to edit them all together into a full-length episode

It's going to be a fucking banger

 

[AGRacing]

what, the military key locations? That's typically 24-48 hours

Full conquest? Or just fucking shit up, set back nuclear development and leave?

If full conquest, then how long you think the Guerilla warfare will last as they spread into multiple surrounding countries and always disrupt operations? It would be worse than Iraq, worse than Vietnam more than likely. Decades, tens of thousands of deaths of American soldiers. There's never really a way to win these non traditional wars. USA just gets tired of spending and pulls back

Trump would never do "full conquest" and won't need to.

Excellent day 1 progress I'd say.

I think the plan for the US is to not directly involve themselves in taking over and overseeing a transfer of power, it's too hard and expensive (people, financial and time cost).

It seems like they only want to destabilise/remove the existing regime, giving a chance for a new one to easily take power. However, there are obvious risks to this approach...

No one can predict the future and no one knows what the right the call is, it's why these actions are, and should be carefully weighed.

The world can only watch, wait and hope for a better future for the people of Iran.

regime change works, it's just the Bush era type was a colossal failure where we'd try to occupy and try to teach people from the stone age western values and ideals. Trump on the other hand is willing to roll the dice where the situation already sucks and can't get much worse so whatever forms after can't be worse than what it was.

Europe is pretty split on this. Some have been "concerned" but others have been supportive. We're seeing that the EU is anything but unified under their banner these days

Meanwhile.......



Putin looks up and realizes all of his former pals are being deposed one after another and China is just using him for his oil. His list of allies grows thin indeed

The bar set by the Bush Jr admin is incredibly low, it's not that difficult to do better:
1) Attack an enemy country that is actually nearly nuclear.
2) Stay off the ground.

It's not as clear cut as that, I'm afraid. And it goes back to before the first world war. If you want to dig deeper into it, it goes back centuries. Within the Islamic Empire there were forces pushing for radicalization and forces pushing for westernization, even before the rise of Western Empires that happened in the 19th century.

It's easy to put the responsibility for this outcome solely on the west, but it ignores the fact that Islam was sinking from its enlightened heights of the 14th century even as America was yet to be colonized.

It ignores the fact that Islamic Empires attempted to conquer Europe in the 17th century and were almost successful in doing so. They reached as far as Vienna before they were pushed back, and the cultural influence that had on the west was probably an unforseen consequence, from the point of view of the ruling powers of the time.

It ignores the Islamic slave trade which was of larger scale (iirc) and longer duration than the European and American ones. It ignores the fact that Muslim terrorism by non state actors (that was secretly indirectly funded by Islamic states) is not a new invention either, and was practiced at least as far back as the 18th or 17th centuries.

There's a ton of history we don't learn about and much of it has to do with the empires that came before the west.

That's a lot of text to try to rationalize the idea that they wouldn't have been a stable, liberalized state by now listening to our music and buying our blue jeans if we had just left them alone. I don't think you've made the case that radicalization was inevitable.

Israel has been working towards this for decades, iran is the main supplier of hamas and the terror against jews. iran fucked up by gunning down the protesters which gave USA the mandate of heaven to clear out the regime.

 

[Husky Blue]

Didn't the Iranian government cut off Internet and cellular access to the outside world, then started slaughtering civilians? The fact that the death toll estimate range is so wide shows that we really don't know how many were killed, but whether it's 2,000 or 30,000, that is war crime levels.

I fully expect vigils for Khamenei in all major U.S. cities this weekend, because of course anything the President does is bad.

Ultimately, this strike failed.

While Trump attacked to make people forget about the Epstein files, very few functional humans will miss the Iranian terror government.

I'd like to be hopeful, but this reminds me of the Arab Spring which really didn't end up with free happy people. Hopefully there are powerful people who haven't been corrupted who can help shape a new regime.

It's super hilarious because the Epstein Files have done nothing but completely exonerate Trump, in fact they have conclusively shown Trump was Epstein's bitter enemy and the two men hated each other, while implicating many prominent Democrats including Larry Summers, Bill Gates, Bill Clinton, Reid Hoffman, and also a bunch of European royalty and leaders including Britain and Norway's royals in particular and also one of the Rothschilds

But this isn't the Epstein thread so I won't mention it again here

Unfortunately it was only the case for the cities. The rural areas were pretty hardcore islamist.

It's the bullshit of the left that made this shit up about iran, iranian cities started to modernize and the traditional muslims grew crazy. thats the reason for what happened, not the cia sponsoring some groups.

The left has been painting iran as the result of american intervention, but it never was the main reason.

There is no confirmation by the US or Israel of the strike on the school located near elite military troops.

If its true I'm going to imagine that was an Israeli launched missile as they are more adept at such things.
