the drones may well be an attempt to overwhelm the defense system just before the cruise missiles get there.


Yeah, I expect they will all try to time it for a simultaneous arrival + hezbola+ houthi+syria.

But they can only clench their arse when the F35s come.

I'd imagine the Hebrew State is prepared for 'winner takes all'

Is this the first Nation to Nation attack on a country that has nuclear weapons?

I know Pakistan has them, but any action there has been against separatist groups and not the country itself.

Seems like a bold move by Iran.

The A-10 warthog would seem to be an excellent platform for knocking down drones, esp when control of airspace by the newest fighters is not an issue

Using traditional military tactics perhaps.

This is a face saving move by Iran. Think about it, they gave Israel, Jordan the US and UK a multi hour heads up. They are seriously unserious with this.

I was told here it was cancelled. Yes? No? Maybe?

You overestimate Iran's capabilities.

That's not the scary thing. The scary thing is how buddy-buddy we are with Israel and how buddy-buddy China and Russia are with Iran.

I don’t think firing cruise missiles is just “showing force”. That’s showing you are trying to do some real damage. But I hope you are right.

Seems like all this started when Biden gave Iran all that loot.

I'd be shocked if Hezbollah didn't get involved tonight. If they're going to, it should take place in the next hour or two.


I could definitely see the top leaders of Hezbollah and Iran discussing Hezbollah staying quiet, but it would absolutely shock me if every single one of their minions holds back. Those guys are on twitter and seeing the news hours ago too, you can’t hide all of them from it. It just seems like too good of an opportunity for them to pass up.
