WAR AND RUMORS OF WAR Thread

Incidentally in 1982 Britain had to recapture the Falklands completely alone because not a single one of her NATO allies stepped up to help, not even America..

^Fixed that for you.

The only Iranian threat to the Hormuz Strait comes from their big shore-launched anti-ship missiles, so if Trump hasn’t yet wiped them out the threat remains.
Iran also has hard-to detect on radar small (8-foor wingspan) drones, so in a saturation attack against ships some are bound to get through the defensive umbrella of NATO warships ; their warheads are relatively small but could still do damage, especially to the ships vulnerable radar systems which if taken out could leave the ships blind to follow-up waves of big anti-ship missiles.

Nah mate, the Falklands were British and the Argies tried to steal them from us..:slight_smile:

Hey, if you’re American you’re squatting on Indian land that you stole from them..:slight_smile:

I don’t know if this real or a parody. If real it would put those “surrender monkey” Europeans in their place

Joe Kent’s resignation letter

“…it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby”

“This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing that Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States, and that you should strike now, there was a clear path to a swift victory,

This was a lie and is the same tactic the Israelis used to draw us into the disastrous Iraq war.”

Trump is already beginning to look stupid because he gambled that the Iranian people would rise up and take back their country from the regime, but that isn’t happenong.

Also the regime is making him look even more stupid because they’closed the Hormuz strait nd there’s nothing he can do about it..:slight_smile:

I said when he started this war that I think he might have bitten off more than he can chew…Below: an Iranian underground drone factory, they’re small (8 foot wingspan) and there’s no warship or carrier on earth that can fully defend itself against a simultaneous ‘saturation attack’ by a hundred or more of them, no wonder he daren’t commit US warships and carriers to the Strait..:slight_smile:

It’s weird that they claimed the “evil regime slaughtered 30,000” of their own people who took to the streets and then call for people to take to the streets.

This Is What It Looks Like When You Give Zionists Everything They Want

This is what it looks like when you give Zionists everything they want. This is Zionism put into practice.

The wars.

The massacres.

The bombed-out schools and hospitals.

The millions of displaced individuals.

The invasion of Lebanon

The explosions carpeting Tehran.

The hollowed-out moonscape of Gaza.

The horrific pogroms in the West Bank.

The child amputees.

The smell of rotting corpses.

The assassinated doctors and journalists.

The blackened sky and the poisoned water.

The nonstop deluge of brain-melting propaganda.

The aggressive promotion of Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism.

The erosion of free speech rights throughout the western world.

The corrupt warmongering politicians.

The legions of online hasbara trolls.

The soaring fuel prices.

Money which could pay for social services buying bombs for Israel instead.

All the death, destruction, instability and suffering that’s being visited upon countless civilians throughout west Asia.

This is Zionism. This is what it looks like when you apply the political ideology of forcibly imposing the existence of a Jewish ethnonationalist apartheid state on historic Palestine. This is it. You’re looking at it.

There is no alternate-reality version of Zionism where all these nightmares are not happening. There is no other kind of Zionism out there waiting in the wings. The liberal Zionist fantasy of a peaceful, egalitarian Israel is just that: a fantasy. It has never existed in real life.

In real life Israel cannot exist without nonstop violence and abuse. It’s like a house that will fall down if it’s not in a constant state of construction. At some point you realize the house should never have been built where it was built, and that steps need to be taken to rectify this error.

Zionism is a failed experiment. How do we know? Look around you.

Time to pull the plug.

The Iran War will make or break Trump and his Administration, I said at the start of it that maybe he’s bitten off more than he can chew, and his advisers (Hegseth / Vance / Rubio) must share the blame too.

Sure, they’re bombing the hell out of Iran, but they seem to have forgot the old military maxim- “Aircraft alone can’t win wars”…We saw that in WW2 when Allied bombers turned every German city to rubble over 4 years, but it still needed boots on the ground to finish off the nazi regime.

At the moment Trump has scored a goal by killing many of the regimes top leaders, but Iran has also scored by closing the Hormuz Strait, so overall the score is tied at 1-1..:slight_smile:

Crazy to watch Israel trying to steal southern Lebanon….they blew up a bridge on the Litani River thus disconnecting the South.

At the time of the Iraq war, the phrase “Boys go to Baghdad, Real Men go to Tehran” was thrown around. I guess the time has come. Deep down, i think everyone feels it….that it is coming. True, the Establishment has the option of mercenaries and rag-tag groups like ISIS (Qatar essentially bankrolled ISIS) but the situation is different now. I doubt that GCC countries now have the appetite to bankroll anyone; given their current economic debacle and also knowing full well that they are shoring up Israel’s hegemon….so the Establishment’s only option is a draft but it also guarantees that the political system will break as a result…and they know it.

If your politician (regardless of jurisdiction) says the word “draft”, remember the phrase and act accordingly :slight_smile:

“If you’ve got a car that runs on petrol you should fill up as quickly as possible.”

There is speculation that Trump may try to call time on the war in the coming days, but Iran is braced for impact and will not surrender “anytime soon”, says senior fellow at the Middle East Institute, Brian Katulis**.**

If there’s no oil to make petrol/gasoline, every car on the planet will grind to a halt, but as i’m not a car owner i don’t mind a bit..:slight_smile:
Sure, there’ll be no taxis or buses either, but i’ll simply hop on my bike to pedal from A to B, i’ve got a can of oil to oil my chain and hubs so it’ll last for years..:slight_smile:
Bikes are already the primary mode of transport in many countries..:slight_smile:
