These folks saying Iran air defense got beat up?
How would they know at this stage, idk?
Israel vs Iran: 10/25 Israel launch strikes on Iran and Syria, Iran say they gonna hit back, they let neighboring Arab nation know of attack on Israel
- Thread starter Mask
- Start date
How would they know at this stage, idk?
quite the opposite we won’t see satellite pictures of an Iranian military complex with craters, big holes the way we saw the vebatim air base ! Israeli propaganda failed on this front too !
Do you honestly think that assassinating a military leader of proxy forces ends a war in 2024? That's only good for a five-minute headline in the news cycle.
Have the assassinations ended the war? Nope.
Have the assassinations slowed down war between U.S.-backed Israel and Iranian-backed Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, Etc. ? Nope.
Is the goal of establishing "Greater Israel" bearing fruit? Nope.
In military comparison, Israel is sloppy. Iran is more precise:
October 25, 2024: Israel launched a limited strike in Tehran with minor damage according to reports. They did not strike infrastructure or oil fields. Before the brief strike, the U.S. told Israel that the IDF is on its own if they strike any oil fields or infrastructure in Iran. Israel obeyed accordingly.
October 2, 2024: Iran's 2nd direct strike (for Israeli assassinations of Hamas, Hezbollah, and IRGC leaders): Iran fires
about 200 medium-range ballistic missiles (MRBMs) at Israel, targeting air bases, radar facilities, and security elements that Tehran deems responsible for the recent killings of Hezbollah secretary-general Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut and Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
April 13, 2024: Iran's 1st direct strike (due to Israel striking an Iranian consulate in Syria): Iran gave the world approximately two weeks notice before the strike on Israel that took out some military airbases, even with other countries (US, UK, France, Jordan) assisting Israel in air defense. Reconnaissance on Air Defense systems at a fraction of the cost. 1.5B in defense vs. $200M in strikes
Absolutely

Well cuz Iran as a country is broke. The US sanctions have crippled their economy. They have the weakest currency in the world. 1 U.S. dollar is worth $42,105 as of 10:35pm 10/26/24
And it is because of sanctions is why it is worth that little.
And US sanctions on Iran has not let up. This was just less than 3 weeks ago more sanctions on Iran oil sector. That is their primary export oil & natural gas. And with the world trying to move away from petroleum oil & to lithium & silicone as we move further into the 4th Industrial Revolution Iran has to make major moves if they want to compete in the next 10 years. Their budget for military is getting exhausted everytime they launch these attacks and get attacked. Israel gets funding from USA so it can afford to invest more into their military
They don’t want Iran to have nukes cuz they are hostile towards the west. Same with North Korea they are a threat to USA national security
Iran have been hammered by sanctions.
Seems like nations around the world have developed a strong interest in Iran energy.
This will help Iran greatly also this why the Brics is key.
Why continue to use Americans currency if you’ll get punished aka canceled
Something else it’s a reason China sent a aircraft carrier to Iran earlier in the year, they ain’t trying to let their investment go to shit

If you REALLY believe that you have no idea what money is.
Iranian media:
-- Most of the Israeli projectiles were shot down by air-defence at a distance of 20 - 60km from Tehran
-- The sounds of explosions at Teheran were the launches of Iranian SAMs
-- They have admitted that a 1 x Air-Defence system was hit resulting in the death of 2 soldiers

Fam, I think you meant Nevatim Airbase, which is one of Israel's largest military airbases. Iran leveled that to craters and successfully hit a number of other Israeli military targets. One of the probable reasons Bibi's hands were visibly shaking when he announced retaliation that amounted to a brief strike.
Years ago, the goal of sanctions was to stop Iran from continuing to build it's military arsenal and military proxies. Have the current U.S. sanctions against Iran been successful?
The notion that "Iran is broke due to U.S. sanctions" is akin to saying, Jill Stein has a good shot of winning the White House. Both efforts are merely symbolic gestures.

Yep Nevatim !
Looks like Iran received a new variant of S400 from Russia , the S400S
Israeli channel 12 News reportedly reported that Israel's security establishment believes Iran may choose to act through its militias in Iraq and Yemen, rather than respond directly.
The outlet also claims that senior Israeli security officials are threatening to respond strongly to any attack, regardless of where it originates

ANALYSIS: In my opinion, I think that Iran will not attack Israel before the U.S. Presidential Election. The WSJ article also seems to confirm this.
While Iran dislikes Kamala Harris and Donald Trump equally, Harris is less likely to engage in a full-scale war against Iran, so Iran wants her to win. They don't want to take the risk of possibly influencing the election outcome by attacking Israel and delivering another major foreign policy failure to Kamala Harris, especially so close before Election Day.
I also think one of the reasons that Iran won't respond very fast is because the Israelis didn't respond fast either. And the Israelis didn't respond fast because Iran didn't respond fast after Ismael Haniyeh. In my opinion, Iran is doing this on purpose.
By constantly waiting 1-2 months to retaliate, Iran is spreading the conflict over multiple months, across several seperate cycles of violence that are manageable and can be somewhat controlled. This allows Iran to repair, adapt and prepare for all scenarios between each new wave of exchanges.
Iran is actively trying to control the pace of the escalation ladder, which is good. Israel's strength lies in short, powerful attacks that paralyze the enemy. If they are forced into a new cycle of exchanges every few months, this won't be in their favour at all. Israel is not very adaptable, and they are already under huge pressure, facing multiple different war fronts at once. Iran has time on its side

See this why Israel been calling a Washington nonstop about sending defense equipment, talking to Moscow about getting Iran not to strike back.
Iran have shit that no one ever seen in action. Israel have nukes but that’s different. I think it was stated that Iran have like 5 different types of missiles that haven’t been seen yet.
