It could be but that account is pretty reputable. WSJ reported there was THAAD air defense at that base. If the video is real and the Iranian missiles are bypassing it like butter, that’s gonna be a big problem.

Depends on how many missiles targeted the base and how many interceptors we had left at the time.

No more BS “ceasefires” or “deals”. Finish the damn job!



Cats & Cosby had a general on their radio show who said that the IRGC is being weakened step by step, bomb by bomb until the three guerilla groups fighting them can take them down with the help of air support.

I'd like to see the uprising and protestors have access to Ukraine's attack drones to hurry the process.

Iran officially and formally exits the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding with the United States, with Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Gharibabadi saying, effective immediately, Iran is suspending all commitments and will not implement any of them after the US “violated and suspended all of its commitments” first, and is now purely focused on defending the country, per Tasnim.

Gharibabadi says Iran will “never start negotiations with the US under any circumstances.”

At what point does this re-escalate beyond just attacking coastal defenses? It feels like we’re past that and heading back to the earliest stages of the war but this could be part of a broader strategy.

Seems like they’re trying to cut off the coast from Tehran. That might be the whole strategy or they might be trying to pull out reinforcements and supplies from the interior.

Just a reminder about the supplies of Iran (again). We left the train route to China etc. open until 3? days ago. The roadways also. And I didn't hear anything about the airlines, but I believe they were open also.

As far as we know, they could have as many missiles and drones (esp drones) as they started with. You think China was sending them potatoes? The outbound trains and major highways should have been taken out when this whole thing got started.

There, I won't repeat myself again. Correct me where I am wrong please

State Department Issues Worldwide Travel Advisory Amid Escalations in Iran War, Says US Interests May Be Targeted
quote:

The President has further refused to rule out a ground invasion of Iran and suggested that he would take over Iran’s oil export hub of Kharg Island.

Now the Department of State is warning of a “complex” security environment, with the potential for unforeseen escalation.”

“Flight cancellations and periodic airspace closures may cause travel disruptions. U.S. diplomatic facilities, including outside the Middle East, have been targeted,” the advisory notes.

“Groups supportive of Iran may target other U.S. interests overseas or locations associated with the United States and/or Americans throughout the world.”

The worldwide caution advisory reads:

If they had as many as they had when we started then they’d be firing them. The amount of missiles and drones coming out of Iran are a trickle compared to the onset of the war.

But yes I’m sure China has been replenishing their stocks.
