2026 Israel - Iranian conflict [TEMP LOCKED]

[Gloire_bb]

Evidence seem to suggest the Iranian "senior military commanders" aren't the people you think they are.

I am rather sceptical about "actual reptilian people".
Iranian elites are actually dying right now. They can give pre assigned orders, they can have replacements - but they're still dying in droves, often with their families.

Where are you seeing port? It says photo,

Ebril airbase doesn't have water or cranes. It's a port somewhere

That what happens when you rush a war thinking that you can win it within a few days and don't take into consideration the amount of interceptors you have and the amount you should have in a war with Iran especially since you have data from the 12 day war that would make it easier for you to estimate the number.

I think the jews really wanted USA to get involve, because they do not really lose much either way.

If the jews do it alone, they will get the full brunt of the attack.

if they pull USA into the war, then USA will at least take 50%. actually more, because there are more us base closer to Iran than Israel.

john mearsheimer mentioned the hard push came from the jews. and the wallstreet lobby pretty much is the jews. and seems like they really want a final strike to do some damage to Iran, because of the protest. Maybe they think it will be a way to weaken Iran? As the USA decline, USA will lose their ability to conduct cross ocean wars. So this is the final moment for the USA.

ironically, this is the acceleration of US decline, because, this pretty much spells doom for US economy. regardless how they do it, spending money they do not have, really only make them more vulnerable in the long run.

You know, the irony is, if you look at the history of the jews. They were litterally created by the old persian empire to maintain conflict in the mesopotaimia region. now the irony is, the jews are bitting the persians back!

Despite suffering heavy losses in this war, Iran's weapons repeatedly breached U.S.-Israeli defenses. I even suspect the U.S. and Israel had no defenses in place at all, which leaves me perplexed.

They’re either using their good missiles or China’s rare earth curbs are having an effect.

Iran never had HQ-9s. I don't know why people come up with this. China isn't giving out HQ-9s like candy.

There are several reports indicating that Iran has received and deployed them around their nuclear sites. Nonetheless this hasn't been backed up by ground level photography.

Quality of used weapons, much larger scale (Iranian attacks go in all directions, from a really big country), no warnings, destruction of big early warning radar, inexperienced crews.

Furthermore, Iraqi Shiite militias are active again.

There has been reports that Iran has bought J-20. Nothing is believable these days without concrete hard evidence of actual systems in photo video getting deployed.

For all the talk about Russian and Chinese support for Iran there's a very real way China could help by simply stopping supplying the US & Israel with Rare Earths, it's not like Trump has (pun not intended) many trump cards to play with China anyway so them simply pressuring the US & Israel with the Rare Earth card seems to me something that would work in this conflict since they need Rare Earths for weapons. This would give a supply constraint for the US & Israel and give Iran an advantage since they could allow special access to Rare Earths for Iran.

It don't see this happening since it requires a high level of trust in Iranian leadership but it's a theoretical possibility.

I think that rare earth sales to US military company is still suspended but they have stockpiles of their own.

International shipping companies have started suspending shipments through Strait of Hormuz

LONDON, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Several tanker owners, oil majors and trading houses have suspended crude oil, fuel and liquefied natural gas shipments via the Strait of after the U.S. and Israel and Tehran said it had closed navigation, trading sources said on Saturday.

Greece's shipping ministry advised vessels on Saturday to avoid the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Oman and the Strait of Hormuz, according to an advisory seen by Reuters.

Some 20% of global oil, including from producers Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Iraq, Kuwait and Iran, passes through Hormuz along with large volumes of LNG from Qatar.

Fourteen LNG tankers have shown signs of slowing down, U-turning or stopping in or around the Strait, said Laura Page from consultancy Kpler, adding that the number would likely rise, posing risks to Qatari LNG exports.

German container-shipping group Hapag-Lloyd (HLAG.DE), opens new tab said it is suspending all vessel transit through the Strait of Hormuz until further notice. Services calling on ports in the Gulf may experience delays, rerouting or schedule adjustments, the company said.

Denmark's Maersk (MAERSKb.CO), opens new tab said in an undated update on its website that it was coordinating with security partners on all operations in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden but cargo acceptance in the Middle East remained open.

French shipping group CMA CGM said it had told its vessels inside or headed for the Gulf to proceed to shelter after the United States and Israel attacked Iran.

1. The US and Canada's oil is owned by the corporate private oligarchs, not the US govt.

But the US government is also owned by the oligarchs.

2. The US is already suffering a massive hidden inflation problem. It's just underreported.

Isn't a problem for the oligarchy. If anything, they see it as an added bonus.
