@NEBU_CHAD_NEZZ @willchamberlain Yea man turkey and France and Italy for sure were participating lol. What exactly was France doing when Iran killed one of their CWO’s? Or even better Turkey? Who’s probably the most pro Iran NATO ally?

@FrameLuke @willchamberlain Wrong. Every state they targeted is helping the U.S. war effort against them, including those who assured Iran they wouldn’t.
Hyper dumbass.

Basically every major development in the Iran War has vindicated Trump’s decision to strike.
1) Overwhelming current disparity in traditional military capability = now is a good time to strike, we can destroy their capabilities with limited losses of personnel/material
2) Iran flings ballistics and drones at a nearly a dozen non-combatant neighbors = they are crazy and can’t be trusted with nukes
3) Iran opens negotiations with Witkoff with “we have enough 60% enriched material for 11 bombs and we will not give you anything at the negotiating table that you couldn’t achieve militarily” = diplomacy would not have solved the problem
4) Iran fires ballistics at Diego Garcia = they were not far from having ICBMs that could hit the Eastern Seaboard
The case for hitting Iran is STRONGER than it was for ISIS!

@Locaneee @Alexsos90046937 @TONYxTWO Yea rip I missed it, smh. However AI says it’s over 1,000 news articles say it’s over 1,000 you’re the only one saying it’s not. So ima just go with the multiple sources over 1,000 over you
English
@FrameLuke @Alexsos90046937 @TONYxTWO It does actually, did you read the ss? Aint no number for that nor is the number of lives lost listed for that to my knowledge cause i searched for it already. Fed gov supposed to know the answer to that one.

@walter_kev96767 @lostwander57013 @Ewingwr @AGHamilton29 This time I don’t really care about regime change. I see us removing CENTCOM as a major operating theater in the near future a good thing so we can full pivot to INDOPACOM for China. If the people people rise up cool. But if we level the county fine by me too.

More like 73 years when we toppled their elected government with Operation Ajax in 1953. And then US intervention in 1979 installed the theocracy. Literally every intervention we've ever done in the Middle East has made thing worse and less secure, but I'm sure this time will be different.
English
Embarrassing for a lot of the people who have spent the last 2 weeks citing the limited range of regime missiles as supposed evidence that they aren't a direct threat.
OSINTdefender@sentdefender
According to the Wall Street Journal, citing multiple U.S. officials, Iran has targeted the joint U.S.-UK base at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean with two intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBM). According to the report, one missile failed in flight whilst the other was engaged by a U.S. destroyer utilizing an SM-3 interceptor, but a successful interception was not confirmed. None of the missiles hit the base. This is notable as Iranian long-range precision fires have not previously been publicly assessed as having the range to hit such a target as Diego Garcia, as the base is some 4,000 kilometers from Iran proper.
English
@lostwander57013 @Ewingwr @walter_kev96767 @AGHamilton29 It’s ability to wage any conflict that would require a significant presence in CENTCOM, but I have a word limit so I just shorten it tbh.

@FrameLuke @Alexsos90046937 @TONYxTWO Article says nothing, as i said go do the math yourself instead of reading headlines. Get to counting. 🤦🏽♂️

@FrameLuke @Alexsos90046937 @TONYxTWO Already looked it up…did you do the math or are you just reading the headline? Go back and tally it up then comeback and tell me if you got over 1000. Like you said the internet is free so go use it as i been did. 🥱

@Cognition1986 @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan I’m not as knowledgeable when it comes to how much enriched uranium is needed for a weapon like that tbh. Is it possible maybe.
English
@FrameLuke @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan Something else I'd like to mention which is very concerning. We're mostly certain that Iran does not have uranium enriched to point of weapons grade.
Nagasaki and Hiroshima are fine now; Chernobyl is not. They could put partially enriched uranium on a warhead (dirty bomb).
English
Trump during the State of the Union: “They [the Iranians] have already developed missiles that can threaten Europe and our bases overseas, and they're working to build missiles that will soon reach the United States of America.”
Fact check: True.

“Iran’s targeting of Diego Garcia, ~4,000 kilometers from Iran, implies its missiles have a greater range than Tehran has previously acknowledged. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said last month that Iran has deliberately limited the range of its missiles to 2,000 kilometers.” 🤷♂️
English
@Cognition1986 @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan They have a limited number of them. And with most of their launchers destroyed they can only launch a few at a time and for our AD networks that’s a much more manageable problem
English
@FrameLuke @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan You seem knowledgeable which is why I wanted to speak with you. My fear is the Iranians weren't lying; they are holding back missiles.
If they fired some junk ass missile ok, death gasps, I get it. But these rockets are, in theory, superior to anything they've launched thus far.

@KurtSchlichter @earlyvotedata Japan is making a deal with Iran to get its ships past Hormuz, with each shipment subject to a tax. All that money will enable Iran to acquire much better strike capabilities as well as nukes.
English
Look how effective Iran’s missiles and drones have been. We totally should waited until they had more and better of both to fight back.”
English
@Cognition1986 @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan As someone who’s in and has buddies in the sandbox what the admin says lines up not perfectly of course but missile launches are down 90 plus percent and drones are similar, and we did know yesterday in fact well beforehand they hat those missiles reference the state of the union
English
@FrameLuke @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan Ok, I get that, but does it not concern you that the story is, apparently, "we've obliterated virtually all of their missiles but whoops, some are still in tact and whoops, their range is 4,000 km instead of 2,000 km and until yesterday we didn't know they could do that"?
English
@Cognition1986 @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan We have indeed intercepted and destroyed a lot of manufacturing launchers and stockpiles but there will be onesies and twosies left that can engage. Eventually they will run out.
English
@FrameLuke @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan I'm just trying to have a conversation; no need to be rude. I'm being respectful to you.
I would like to believe our Intel but it's hard to do so when the scenario is "We destroyed their missile capacity" and a week later it's "we didn't and the range is double what we thought".
English
@lostwander57013 @Ewingwr @walter_kev96767 @AGHamilton29 Crazy how it’s all public information lil bro, your forget things like operation praying mantis. You also can’t think and breath at the same time, with Iran gone we can full pivot to INDOPACOM for China. It’s really that simple. But cope I guess.
English
@FrameLuke @Ewingwr @walter_kev96767 @AGHamilton29 Keep slopping up that government propaganda dude. Just a couple more wars, a few thousand more soldiers sacrificing their lives, and we’ll finally have peace.

@Locaneee @Alexsos90046937 @TONYxTWO The internet is free lil bro. The cope will continue until moral improves I guess.

@NEBU_CHAD_NEZZ @willchamberlain They already lashed out at literally everyone in the gulf and tarter nations who had nothing to do with the conflict.
I’m sure those are rational individuals we want to allow to have nukes. Hyper intelligent thinking.
English
@willchamberlain 3) Witkoff misunderstood what Iran said with regard to their 60% enriched material. Trump is an idiot for sending such an ignoramus to negotiate.
4) The fact that Iran targeted Diego Garcia doesn’t mean they will attack the Eastern Seaboard.
You are seriously pathetic.
English
@Cognition1986 @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan No lmao, that’s not even a likely possibility just actual copium. Trump even stated during the state of the union what Irans missile capabilities were.
English
@FrameLuke @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan Someone else suggested they could have shot off a rocket with no payload. That would increase its range right? It would be a bluff but is that not a potential scenario?
How could we have miscalculated to THAT extent? That seems like a very big opsie on our part.
English
@lostwander57013 @Ewingwr @walter_kev96767 @AGHamilton29 So this has been an ongoing conflict for over 40ish years. They just tried to attack Diego Garcia with IRBM’s in 5-10 years they would have ICBM’s with nuclear warheads that could hit CONUS
And I can shot you my recruiter’s info for the marine corps, if you saw the EGA on my PFP
English
@FrameLuke @Ewingwr @walter_kev96767 @AGHamilton29 Lol and who started this war of aggression my dude? What imminent threat did Iran pose? And when are you enlisting to help fight?
English
@Cognition1986 @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan So you know that satellites track the trajectory of rockets based on their height and speed and angle of movement. Diego Garcia is in the middle of nowhere it’s pretty obvious once you do the math where they were trying to hit
We knew about their missiles and their capabilities
English
@FrameLuke @thoughtsofquod @JerryDunleavy @MaryMargOlohan What I'm curious about is how do we know for sure what the missiles ranges are? If we had no clue they had the capacity yet, only a day later, we know for certain?
How do we know they weren't 2000 km rockets sent towards a target they could never reach?
I'm genuinely curious.
English
@lostwander57013 @Ewingwr @walter_kev96767 @AGHamilton29 quick name a country that hasn’t killed civilians in a conflict, now name a country that goes to the lengths that we do to avoid it. We conducted 1,000 strikes on 24 hrs and only one munition hit something bad. Grow up it’s war shit happens.
