re: Official US/Israel vs Iran war thread

Sorry to board for being tardy with this reply. I spend much time on SEC Baseball and am playing catch up in the early mornings.
Anyway I wanted to comment on what David Limbaugh's friend said in the X post quote below. His friend Rod Martin said...

It should be completely obvious to anyone who is not intentionally not wanting to understand.

He is pitting the factions against each other with competing interests for money and power and safety.

And when one of them betrays the other, they will take care of the bad one.

If they don’t, then Trump will randomly target them again and blame them all as if they are one government. That will frustrate them greatly, causing them again to turn on each other because there is no longer any single central authority.

This is absolutely brilliant, but if you think it’s gonna mean peace, if you think the Strait is really going to be open, and if you think Iran has surrendered and decided to play nice, you are delusional.

If you think Trump wants to murder 90 million people you are beneath delusional: you are intentional.

I agree with everything he says, and wanted to add....
The 2 week slow down is to allow for the following....
1) Arm Iranian citizens since the Kurds filtered our initial delivery.
2) Re-arm, Re-fuel, and rest our own troops.
3) Review, maybe share, avenues the IRGC will run once the fighting resumes, and it will resume.
4) We're seeing the infighting and drive-bys beginning now. Give it more time to fester and consolidate the remaining factions.

The way I see it, the IRGC is running out of places to hide in Iran. This is why they're desperate to keep Hezbollah viable in Lebanon. I think they anticipate running to Lebanon as the shite has hit the fan in Iran. Pissed off citizens may soon be armed and will be after that IRGC arse.

I think the US plan has been to bomb certain bridges and roads so as to allow only a few avenues of escape for all those Toyotas to drive away. The roads and bridges that are bombed are now kill zones. The avenues that remain open for travel will be preyed upon from the air.
The infighting of the internal groups will continue with reduced avenues of escape (Now youse can't leave). The pissed off Iranians will either kill or capture bad guys. Captured may face public execution.

This can not end with IRGC remaining in Iran or reconstituted in Lebanon, or anywhere else. IRGC has got to go, and I think the oppresses Iranians and President Trump know this.

One more thing for those that say a power vacuum will cause issues, SO WHAT. First thing is get rid of IRGC, we'll cross the next bridge when we get there. Anything is not necessarily better, but can't be worse than the current IRGC.

Probably just my wish casting however. And I can't figure out what part the Shahs son plays in this, or he shows up to help formation of new government after the dust settles.....

Is it OK to trust CNN reporting now?

I hope Vance is not wasting his time, but it sounds like he might be.

If I were Vance, I'd kick their hotel room door open, march in, and say "Listen, you dumb MFers, we're trying to throw you a lifeline. Stop being stupid."

Either us or Israel will be tracking those fricks when they leave Pakistan and they will be dead within 48 hours of touching down in Iran

Wherever they were hiding for the last 5 weeks, they should have stayed

This is the first time you've noticed this? There's been a very close correlation between pro-Islamic regime propaganda and views espoused by the nascent anti-Trump, anti-Israel party in the US. A lot of it is also echoed by the far left in the US and Europe. If they run a Carlson-Fuentes ticket in 2028, the Regime, along with China and Russia, would donate hundreds of billions to the cause. Soros would break his budget funding anti-fa support rallies for Nick and Tuck.

Mehr News: A senior Iranian military official denied Axios claims that a US vessel crossed the Strait of Hormuz. The American military vessel was warned it would be targeted within 15 minutes if it continued moving toward the Strait. Iran's Armed Forces issued a firm and swift warning, preventing the vessel from approaching the Strait of Hormuz.

They are scrambling trying to deny that we transited it.

Well even if CNN had not reported it, that would have been expected.

I think Trump should announce that we are negotiating with Taiwan for a HUGE air defense systems sale. (But not ship them until the Iran situation is concluded).

See how China likes that.
