@MPPregent @MalcolmNance Maybe Trump will manage to maintain leverage and pressure to exercise some diplomacy instead of pulling the trigger and expanding the conflict...

The announced deployment of a Parachute Infantry Regiment from the 82nd Airborne Division will force the regime into a crisis decision spiral - "where and what can we defend?" The movement of strained regime forces to defend key terrain will provide our ISR assets and pilots a target rich environment.

@AlexandruC4 The US narrative has shifted to being about suffering less than others...not about prospering.

Trump: "The amazing thing is we don't need the Hormuz Strait. We don't need it. We don't need it at all. We have so much oil. Our country is not affected by this."

@johnchotazo @Arrogance_0024 They're fine. Maybe lack energy security...and will have to love without modern amenities, but they're fine. People don't appreciate the value of peace.

@Zatananas @Arrogance_0024 Europe is fine? That's just an illusion backed by endless money printing while the continent deindustrializes itself in record time. It is not nice what is coming.

Trump must be very happy.

@johnchotazo @Arrogance_0024 Europe is fine. People forget what suffering is. That's why we have war.

@Zatananas @Arrogance_0024 Well, remember that Russia also "lost" export capacity in huge numbers in the past, reported in the media, and it was only 3% in the end. This is just hopium, and if true, Ukraine will get less of everything as europe suffers. Classic dumb ukrainian move anyways.

@Arrogance_0024 Israel is planing the ground alright...right beside the rest of the flat earthers.

Israel is reportedly planing a ground intervention in Iran with 400 000 troops.

@johnchotazo @Arrogance_0024 Selling less, and less, and less....right up until they're earning so much that no one in russia has to work ever again.

@Arrogance_0024 Russia will still earn much more with way higher prices, selling less

@israelititan @NersFalco Civilizations change.

100 years ago there was a country Persia They gave shelter to about 1K Muslims. Now that country has become Islamic Iran.

@saintjavelin That's grossly misleading. Russian passport holders are maybe 5% of the Estonian population. Speaking russian doesn't make someone russian property. Quite a few imperialists believe they own everyone that speaks a language or who's ancestors come from a place they rule.

The numbers first, because they matter: - Russians make up about 22.5% of Estonia’s total population and Narva, the country’s third-largest city, has nearly 97% of its population being either ethnic Russians or native Russian speakers. - Of Narva’s ~50,000 residents today, 46.7% are Estonian citizens, 36.3% hold Russian Federation passports, and 15.3% have undefined citizenship

Russia is now openly discussing attacking Narva, Estonia on state TV. “To destroy NATO and break Europe’s will.” We’ve heard this script before. In 2014, they said the same things about Donbas. We all know how that ended.

@MrBrown_114 @grok @shanaka86 No. That's not a reasonable option. There's probably supply tunnels as well...that won't be revealed through tracking missile launches. Perhaps...identify the resource supply/oxygen supply, interrupt it. Maintain interruption over a sustained period while monitoring seismic..

@grok @shanaka86 Can constant bombing weaken a 500 meters deep buried bunker?

BREAKING: Iran built a subway system for ballistic missiles inside a granite mountain south of Yazd. Automated rails move warheads and transporter-erector-launchers between assembly halls, storage vaults, and three to ten blast-door exits carved into the mountainside at depths reaching 500 metres. A TEL rides the tracks to an exit, surfaces, fires, and retreats underground before the strike aircraft can respond. The mountain has been under construction for two decades. The IRGC did not build a bunker. It built a weapons factory with its own internal railway, buried deeper than any conventional bomb can reach. The United States and Israel have struck Yazd Imam Hussein on March 1st, March 6th and March 17th and even earlier today! Satellite imagery shows collapsed portals, cratered ventilation shafts, and destroyed surface infrastructure. The visible damage is real. The invisible infrastructure is intact. On March 20, a long-range ballistic missile launched from the Yazd complex, failed during boost phase, and crashed near Kohistan Park inside Yazd City itself. The launch failed. The fact that it happened at all is the proof. Three weeks of precision strikes on the portals did not stop the railway behind them from delivering a missile to a surviving exit. The engineering is simple in concept and devastating in practice. Each blast door is a separate exit point. When one is destroyed, the rail system reroutes to another. When that door is struck, it is backfilled with soil and concrete by the IRGC from inside, then re-excavated when the bombing pauses. CNN satellite analysis confirmed the rail layouts. Alma Research mapped the tunnel networks. The IDF acknowledged that approximately 60 percent of launch infrastructure has been destroyed. The US estimated 50 percent of capacity remains. That remaining 50 percent rides underground rails that no bomb in the American or Israeli arsenal can reach at 500 metres through granite. The GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, the largest bunker-buster ever built, penetrates approximately 60 metres of reinforced concrete or roughly 40 metres of moderate rock. Granite is harder than moderate rock. Five hundred metres is more than twelve times the weapon’s maximum penetration depth. The gap between the bomb and the tunnel is not a margin of error. It is a physical impossibility. The mountain does not care how many sorties are flown above it. The railway does not care how many portals are sealed. The geology is the defence, and the geology has been there for 300 million years. This is why the war continues. Every missile that hits Arad, Dimona, or central Israel was assembled underground, moved on rails to an exit, and fired from a door that may have been destroyed and rebuilt multiple times since February 28. The persistence of Iranian missile fire despite three weeks of intensive strikes is not resilience. It is infrastructure. The IRGC did not prepare for this war by building rockets. It prepared by building railways inside mountains. The rockets are replaceable. The railways are permanent. And the granite that protects them was formed before mammals existed. The strait is 21 miles wide. The mountain is 500 metres deep. And the railway inside it is still delivering missiles to the surface. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@FartnSpartan @revishvilig Oh no...I hear it. It's coming for me. I'm a statistic. A low point value quota requirement...

Robert Brovdi, Commander of Ukraine's Unmanned Systems Forces: Soldiers are ordered to target [Russian] personnel, rather than armour or other equipment, at least 30% of the time. 1/6

@BEARDMAN100 @MrCryptoWhaleCN Likely option 3 will be energy infrastructure isn't hit. Iran continues to use low cost drones to threaten the region. US develops drone interceptors, deploying more resources. Time will bring things to a standstill or groundwar. The straits will remain closed months more.

@MrCryptoWhaleCN There’s a always Option 3: Giant Mushroom clouds on a couple of their big cities! Game Over!

@noclador The Germans would still be firing missiles today if not for d-day and the ground invasion. Air force alone is overrated. Politics is the problem, there's no clear political objectives.

Iran still fires a few missiles now and then... so what? The Wehrmacht was firing V-2s at England until 27 March 1945... did the Germans win that war? Militarily Iran has been crushed, no matter what grifters, loons, etc. say on here, but politically the war is still unresolved.

@nicholadrummond America sacrificed Iranian democracy, seized Iranian assets, perpetuated a strategy of economic exclusion...etc. Iran is an aggressive regional competitor. Calling them a rogue state is saying they're not on the wests side. True, but a derogatory, manipulative way of saying it.

🔷Iran has been a leading sponsor of international terrorism for 47 years 🔷Iran has continued with its nuclear weapons program despite all efforts to curtail it 🔷Iran supplied the Taliban with weapons and explosives that killed 450+ British soldiers in Afghanistan 🔷 Iran has directly attacked British bases in Cyprus and Diego Garcia and has previously attacked British and American interests through its proxies 🔷 Iran cannot live in peace with its Middle East neighbours and has attacked many of them without provocation, even before the current operation against it 🔷 Iran planned, funded, and facilitated the October 7 attack against Israel, knowing full well that it would precipitate a wider conflict in Gaza and immense human suffering 🔷Iran continues to oppress its own people and regularly executes children under the age of 16 simply for expressing their opinions 🔷 Iran has a totalitarian theocratic regime opposed to the democratic freedoms we take for granted - it doesn’t believe in the rights of the individual 🔷 Iran hates Western values and has consistently tried to undermine us in our own countries through gray zone disinformation campaigns By any reasonable definition under international law, Iran is a rogue state. I don’t approve of the way in which Trump decided to pursue his policy against Iran - without getting prior support from America’s allies - but I am with him all the way for deciding to get rid of the evil and despotic religious maniacs who have made life so miserable for so many. The world will be a safer place. Also, if, as a result of regime change, Christians, Muslims, Jews, and other religions will develop a greater tolerance for each other, this will be a worthwhile secondary outcome. In summary, Trump’s personality and unconventional approach to government are divisive, but on Iran he is right and deserves the full support of Europe.

@noclador @Schizointel I think they're using the those useless A10 Warthogs to shoot down drones! Take back what you said!

2020: Armenian units arrive in Karabakh, stop, and within minutes get hit by Azerbaijani artillery. Now imagine: Iran moving troops / artillery up to the coast to attack US Marines / paratroopers occupying islands... they stop and what do you think the US Air Force will do next?

@noclador The war isn't won. I hope it is...but it's not. When the US and Israel have run out of things to bomb...and flying IED's are still harassing bases, oil infrastructure and shipping. A global economic punishment, until a new trade route from Gaza to Oman is ready. Then maybe...

"War is the continuation of policy by other means." The Israeli and US military have won the war against the mullahs. Alas, while Israel has a clear policy what it wants to achieve with the war, Trump has not. Still, the war is won... what policy results from it is up for grabs

@Legal_Fil @noclador It's not a new strategy. It is frequently used by those who cannot achieve tactical victory. They find a pressure point and apply pressure, despite repeatedly losing battles. Eventually as the pressure mounts...the battles don't matter

I'm fascinated by the emerging consensus that having your navy and air force destroyed, your leadership killed off, and having lost complete control of your air space is actually evidence that one is winning. Crazy that we are only now discovering this new military strategy.

@LindseyGrahamSC @POTUS Thank you, sometimes your allies forget how offensive it is being told what to think. It's been like over a year since our troops have been involved in an American expeditionary war. The last one was so short and America wouldn't lie about weapons of mass destruction.

To our allies in Europe and throughout the Middle East: If you don’t believe Iran with a nuclear weapon would eventually be your war – you have missed a lot.   Through Midnight Hammer and Epic Fury, @POTUS acted in the nick of time to prevent a nuclear armed Iranian regime. Past administrations failed to effectively confront this threat. The JCPOA empowered the regime and was the dumbest deal since the Munich Agreement of 1938. If I were you, I would help President Trump keep the Strait of Hormuz open, which benefits you more than anyone. I would also go further and recommend you more openly assist President Trump’s efforts to end the evil that has emanated from the Iranian regime since 1979. This would give the people of Iran an opportunity to live the life that we have become accustomed to in the civilized world.

@BellaRo36233586 @RealBababanaras Man...you'd think America would be escorting their ships. If India can do it.

@RealBababanaras Look at India pulling its weight! Europe is being put to shame.

BREAKING: The Indian Navy has deployed 2 task forces of warships to ensure the safe transit of merchant vessels & tankers carrying crude oil & gas to India through the Strait of Hormuz. Naval ships are providing escort & all possible assistance to India-bound vessels. (Sources)

@GauciReports That's not how a parliamentary democracy works. A priminister has control of the military at royal perogative. In practice they consult their cabinet and parliament before deploying troops. The discussion is probably harder when Trump is saying humiliating things about the UK.

🚨KEIR STARMER HUMILIATED BY TRUMP…AGAIN! 🇬🇧🇺🇸 Trump embarrasses the UK PM on the world stage after asking him why he needed to “meet with his team” to make a decision. Starmer is weak and pathetic!

@AndrewCFollett @Schizointel That's a good point. Europe china india and arab states need stability here. Makes you wonder why America is there at all! That's all sarcasm..especially the part where I say you have a good point.

Europe needs the straight way more than America does. Yet, they refuse to help us defend their economies.
