Let's see, 'you can't handle Ukraine in 4 years yet we can be neutered in 6 days ----- we'll get back to you with what is left of us'.

Well considering we shipped our gun to Ukraine, loaded our bullets in it, targeted Russia, and then trained some Ukranian to "hit that button when I tell ya"...........Russia giving target data is pretty civil by comparison

If Qanni was indeed executed it to have been a terrible death for him as he was likely tortured. He should have high tailed it out sooner. All this assuming he was a mossad asset.

And if those reports are actually true. I'm curious on the validity.

I said about the same thing and got downvoted to crud.

Reza Pahlavi: The Islamic Republic has launched missiles at the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Jordan, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. It is targeting our Arab neighbors. These violations of their sovereignty are unacceptable and we condemn them. But this is nothing new. This is who the Islamic Republic has always been. And this is why it must end. For nearly five decades, this terrorist regime has sown chaos and bloodshed across our region. It propped up Assad, turning Syria into a graveyard. It planted Hezbollah; as a state within a state in Lebanon. It armed the Houthis to destabilize the Arabian Peninsula. It empowered militias in Iraq that undermine Iraqi sovereignty. It attacked the economic hubs of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. None of this has ever been the desire of the Iranian people, but rather that of the regime occupying our country. Now, however, the landscape has fundamentally shifted. Assad is gone. Hezbollah has been decimated. The regime’s military nuclear program has been set back. Its economy is in freefall. The pillars of this regime’s aggression are crumbling. The Iranian people have paid the price, in blood, to reach this moment. The regime massacred at least tens of thousands of my compatriots in just two days. But it didn’t break the people. Instead, the regime itself is breaking. Today, history reminds us of our future potential. Before the revolution, Iran worked closely with Arab leaders — from King Faisal to Sheikh Zayed to King Hussein to President Sadat. In Oman, my father helped Sultan Qaboos defend his country against insurgency. We were true partners then. We will be true partners again. The Iranian people have called on me to lead the transition after the regime is gone. I have accepted that responsibility. Part of their great mandate to me is to return our nation and our foreign relations to normalcy. I will do exactly that. My commitment is to ensure the transition is orderly, the country is stabilized, and Iranians determine their future through the ballot box. We will not repeat the mistakes of past transitions. We will avoid de-Baathification scenarios and maintain as many bureaucrats and public servants in the transition as possible. Iranians have made their choice — at an enormous price. Now I ask our friends in the Arab world to join us. To prepare to recognize and engage our transitional government. We will rebuild our nation not for expansion, but to serve the Iranian people. We will base our diplomatic relations, not on exportation of ideology, but on mutual respect and shared interests. We will reintegrate into the regional and global economy to increase prosperity for the citizens of all of our nations. Standing with the Iranian people is not charity. It is a strategic investment in making our region one of the most stable, secure, and prosperous in the world. Together, we can build a Middle East our children will be proud to inherit. Take this new path with us.

WP: Russia provides Iran with intelligence on US bases in Middle East
Alona Mazurenko — 6 March, 13:47
According to sources cited by The Washington Post, Russia is providing Iran with intelligence on the locations of US military ships and aircraft in the Middle East.
Source: The Washington Post
Quote: "Russia is providing Iran with targeting information to attack American forces in the Middle East, the first indication that another major US adversary is participating – even indirectly – in the war, according to three officials familiar with the intelligence."
Details: According to The Washington Post, the assistance suggests that one of the United States' main geopolitical competitors has become involved in the conflict.
Since the start of the military operation, Russia has reportedly passed information to Iran on the locations of US military assets, including warships and aircraft.
Three officials familiar with the intelligence told the outlet about the support on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the issue.
"It does seem like it's a pretty comprehensive effort," one of the sources said.
The Embassy of Russia in the United States did not respond to a request for comment.
The scale of Russia's assistance to Iran in targeting remains unclear.
Officials said Iran's ability to determine the locations of US forces had deteriorated less than a week after the fighting began.
Both the Central Intelligence Agency and the United States Department of Defense declined to comment.

quote:There have been quite a few unintentional friendly fire air defense shootdowns over the years. This happened at offset of conflict as ROE and shot doctrine shifts from peace to war, tensions at their highest, and confusion reigns. An engagement error, defense design planning/coordination error, or even procedural/routing mistake by aircrew egressing the combat area is much more likely than deliberate fratricide.
There is some suspicious shite surrounding the Kuwaiti shootdown of 3 US planes. Either they’re fricking retarded or it was intentional.
Have any details come out that actualy indicate "some suspicious shite"? Maybe I missed it.

The Lanchester square law explains why it’s collapsing so fast, even if Iran planned to “save the good stuff.” Quick version: In modern ranged combat (missiles, drones, precision strikes), a force’s real power isn’t just its numbers — it’s roughly proportional to the square of its numbers. Why? Because every launcher can potentially target any enemy asset. So when the coalition knocks out even a modest percentage of Iran’s mobile launchers (TELs), command nodes, and air defenses, the remaining launch capacity drops exponentially — not linearly. That’s why the chart shows 350 ? 175 ? 120 ? ~50 in days, not a slow grind. Destroying one TEL doesn’t just remove one missile; it kills every future missile that truck could have fired, plus the coordination around it. The Economist article was written before the coalition went straight for the “launcher hunt” strategy. Iran never got the chance to cycle through cheap stuff and then unleash the hypersonics — the infrastructure to do it is being dismantled faster than they can adapt. The exponential decay we’re seeing (half-life ~1 day) is textbook square-law attrition. Classic case of quality + precision beating quantity in real time.

The US has been giving target info to Ukraine intensely. Russia's giving it to /Iran is no surprise

Last night was the first night since the war started without any launches from Iran
CNN reporting Saudi intercepted 3x ballistic missiles overnight. And 9 versus UAE. Perhaps zero launches against Israel although that's also contradicted.in the comments. We have dramatically reduced their capacity but it isnt quite annihilated yet.

If the report of AN/TPY-2 struck are accurate this is a perfect example of why we were wise to seize the initiative and strike Iran preemptively. Had they managed to orchestrate the first volleys of the conflict on their own timing our ability to defend may have been drastically compromised.
That's why Attack Operations is the 4th pillar of IAMD. Ignore it at your peril. We can't sit back and rely on playing catch against more threat systems than we have interceptors.
