The UK Government has been lying to you. It has told you the Iran War is not Britain’s war. But Iran has been attacking British bases since the start of the conflict even though we have tried to stay out of it. They have made it our war even if we pretend it isn’t.
And now we learn that Iranian missiles can reach Diego Garcia. London isn’t that much further. Can anyone be certain that the UK - a country with no land based missile defence - can be kept safe in years to come from an Iranian regime that has shown its repeated willingness to attack our forces?
If this evil regime survives this conflict it will only be a matter of time before it rebuilds and restocks. It has already revealed its playbook in this conflict of attacking neutral countries.
There is no neutrality for the Islamic Revolution. You are either for it or you are against it. Our Government needs to come clean about where it stands. Before we all pay the price for its strategic incompetence.

I always thought Reform could win the next General Election, but after tonight's Rally in Swindon I KNOW it. Nigel Farage got a standing ovation as he walked into this beautiful theatre but when he walks down Downing Street as PM the whole country will stand up. #reformpartyuk

You just have to listen to this by @ThatAlexWoman - it’s a must listen, I mean it.
This was a frighteningly accurate account of what Starmer and other leaders of the UK have caused.
“You didn’t stop those ‘Pro-Palestine marches, you didn’t proscribe the Muslim Brotherhood, you didn’t proscribe the IRGC, you weakened support of Israel ..
What on earth do you think you’re doing?! You’re domestic terrorists! You’re sabotaging this Nation!”

Chancellor Rachel Reeves is close mates with a Jew hating Islamist extremist called Arshad Khatana.
He says that he'll only support Labour if they 'do what he demands'.
These are the vile people who control the Labour party.
She's compromised.
Not fit for office.

Robert Jenrick@RobertJenrick
Arshad Khatana has the most abhorrent and shocking views. So why has Rachel Reeves been “friends” with this fanatic for over a decade? Why, as Chancellor, is she going round his house for lunch?

You’re probably overwhelmed by the flood of battle damage imagery from Iran etc on your timeline, but take a moment to look at this photograph of Iran’s Chabahar Konarak Airport.
Look closely at the holes punched cleanly through the roofs of the 4 hardened aircraft shelters by air-launched precision penetrator weapons.
Four clean holes practically in a straight line.
Notice how there are no chaotic scars of conventional bombing. Each entry point sits with almost elegant, geometric precision, spaced evenly, placed exactly where the structure is most vulnerable.
The air strikes cleanly calibrated to penetrate the reinforced concrete and detonate inside, collapsing the protected space within while leaving the outer structure largely intact.
It’s the visual signature of intelligence-led, precision-guided air warfare, where the goal is to kill the aircraft and infra inside. Just controlled, deliberate punctures that signal more than brute force (there’s plenty of that elsewhere).
The targeting design itself here is the message: your assets are mapped, your protections are understood, and even your most hardened spaces are reachable at will.

World’s most evil regime is on brink & Britain has nothing to do with it
Starmer & Labour betrayed the US, our closest allies, in critical hour of need. They are traitors to Britain
Voters will not forgive them
Nor will the US forget their cowardice telegraph.co.uk/opinion/2026/0…

To non-Iranian peeps:
Iran as a country, and Iranians as a nation do not fit in any box you’re familiar with. We’re a weird civilization so very unlike the countries around us and the rest of the world. And that’s what confuses you.
Do not ask an Iranian if we’re Muslim or if we eat pork. Do you just randomly ask a Dane if they’re Christian? Don’t be surprised when we drink (Shirza wine is ours). Human rights were first created by us. Jews found home with Persians thousands of years ago and surprise surprie! We don’t hate them.
We used to have our own ancient religon based on good thoughts and good deeds before Islam invaded our wondeful homeland. That’s why most of us hate Islam and its ways of intruding in our lives.
We never adopted the Islamic ways of life or the Arabic language. Our language and culture survived Chinggis Khan and Alexander. Through thick and thin, we stayed proud and brave Persians. This homeland has seen more than you can imagine.
So please, before you start analyzing or condemning what is going on in Iran right now, just listen to Iranians.
We are peaceful people. We don’t support war, be it in Iran, in Gaza, or in Israel.
But more than 40,000 of unarmed Iranians were massacred by this regime in only 2 days. They were unarmed. We are unarmed and that is why you see Iranians cheering after the attacks on the governmental establishments. We have no fucking choice.
My people are writing: “If I die under these bombs, let the world know that Khamenei killed me and nobody else.” “I’d rather die by an American bomb than by the IRGC’s bullet.”
Yeah, it’s a sad story. No war has ever been kind to people. But like I told you, we’re a weird land and a weirder nation. We’re a phoenix, we have risen from our ash in the past. And we’ll do it again.
Long live Iran ♥️
Long live the King 🦁

The USS Gerald R. Ford is not parked near Iran. It is parked off Israel. And nobody is asking the only question that matters: why.
The $13.3 billion crown jewel of the US Navy, the largest warship ever constructed, just positioned itself off Haifa. Not in the Arabian Sea where the Lincoln sits 850 kilometers from Iranian shores loaded for offensive operations. Not in the Gulf where strike range is optimal. Off Israel. Defending Israel.
This is not redundancy. This is architecture.
Two carriers. Two missions. Two entirely different strategic functions. The Lincoln is the sword, positioned to launch strike packages into Iranian airspace within hours of an order. The Ford is the shield, its Aegis missile defense systems creating an umbrella over Israeli population centers against the retaliation that follows the first Tomahawk.
America just split its carrier doctrine into offense and defense simultaneously. That has not happened since the Pacific theater in 1945.
But the positioning reveals something deeper than tactics. When Iran retaliates, and every wargame says Iran retaliates, its missiles and drones fly toward Israel. They will fly through the same airspace where a US carrier strike group is now stationed. Every Iranian missile aimed at Tel Aviv or Haifa must traverse the Ford’s defensive envelope. Shooting at Israel means shooting at, around, and through an American carrier group.
Iran cannot retaliate against Israel without engaging American naval assets. The Ford’s position makes that physically impossible. The carrier is not defending Israel as a favor. It is positioned so that any Iranian response to American strikes automatically becomes an attack on American forces, triggering the full unrestrained weight of US military response without a single additional political decision required.
This is escalation insurance written in steel and seawater. If the campaign goes longer than planned, if munitions run thin in 7 to 10 days, if allies hesitate, the Ford’s position ensures that Iranian retaliation does the political work Washington cannot do alone: it transforms a limited American strike into an act of self-defense that no ally can refuse to support.
You do not park a $13.3 billion carrier where the enemy’s return fire will hit it unless you want the enemy’s return fire to hit it.
The Ford is not there to prevent escalation. The Ford is there to guarantee that if escalation comes, it comes on terms that make American restraint politically impossible and allied participation politically unavoidable. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…
