Iran v Israel

Post Collins Wong - A Free Man »

Israel struck Iran last night.

Iran hit back tonight.

Israel is bombing Iran now. 

Hope Iran wins, tbh. No more wars for Israel.

With regard to Iran's potential to develop nuclear weapons and it's attitude towards Israel, is "Let's just wait and see what happens," a sensible, adult, intelligent and responsible stance to take?

Also, that these Ayatollahs should they have their way would target and get rid of any purple haired, pronoun wearing, rainbow flag waiving, LGBTQI, DEI supporter and they would really find out the meaning of "victim" or of being discriminated against🤷‍♂️ 
Don't worry, the Egyptians are currently giving all the do-gooders a proper hiding for encouraging and facilitating the agitators of hate in the region by attempting to 'march to Gaza', whatever that means..

👏😆

Irony at it's best.

All propped up and inspired by the Religion of Peace....

Iran, Iraq, Palestine, Pakistan, Saudis, Afghanistan, they're all Islamic obsessed destructive shitholes. Level the fucking lot, if I had it my way.

so did the French, the real dangerous stuff like Exocet missiles etc... I surmise the Yanks would have supplied a lot weaponry, they more or less financed the military regimes.

 
Exactly, contracts are signed, weapons supplied, us Brits have supplied to some pretty dodgy regimes over the years as well lets not forget! And as soon as the conflict broke out most of those contracts would have been paused if from allies of the UK but pretty hard to stop the use of weapons already there or en route.

These Ayatollahs are a different ball game though, should they develop a nuclear weapons they will hold the middle east if not the world to ransom and seeing their love of a suicide bombing and the glory that brings their stone age version of Islam, they will have no hesitation in using them should push come to shove i would bet? So as said in an earlier post the West needs to back Israel to the hilt and ensure they destroy any capability Iran may be developing, not bring up petty arguments for supporting the Ayatollahs in any way, only a cսnt would support them😑
Two spastics:

"While France was a strong ally of the UK during the Falklands War and imposed an arms embargo on Argentina once the conflict began, the situation is more nuanced than a simple "no."Here's a breakdown:
  • Pre-War Sales: France had sold a number of weapons systems to Argentina before the Falklands War broke out, most notably Super Étendard aircraft and Exocet anti-ship missiles. These were critical to Argentina's capabilities during the conflict, and Exocet missiles were famously used to sink HMS Sheffield and Atlantic Conveyor.
  • Embargo and Support for the UK: Once Argentina invaded the Falklands, France quickly imposed an arms embargo, ceasing all official military sales and support to Argentina. Furthermore, France provided significant support to the UK, including:
    • Allowing British forces to use French port facilities in West Africa.
    • Providing intelligence and detailed information about the French-made weapons and aircraft that Argentina possessed. This was crucial for the Royal Navy to develop countermeasures.
    • Cooperating with British efforts to prevent Argentina from acquiring more Exocet missiles on the international arms market.
    • Even providing Mirages for the Royal Navy's Harrier pilots to practice against, simulating Argentine aircraft."

Wind the fuckers up as much as possible.
Russia has been making their own version (Geran') of the Iranian suicide drones (Shaheds) for 2+ years now. 

This won't affect the Russians.

We need a pincer movement of Israel doing the dirty work, being the regional military counter, and the US and Europe piling on the sanctions. Ultimately it wont change until the current regime is removed because they are bent on getting Nukes, although who knows what the resulting power vacuum would bring. The Middle East is never ending saga.

Anyone supporting Iran in the West is either pro Iranian regime or just a wrongun!
Israel has superior strength and will / should win a war with Iran.
They planned this attack for years. Mossad and special ops have been operating inside Iran preparing for this.
They already took out Iran's air defences a few months ago during the last wave of attacks.
iran is weak.
They would have weighed up the risks and would be confident otherwise they wouldn't have gone ahead.
Iran will be rocked by the damage done to their nuclear prigram, their leadership and military infrastructure.
Israel had little choice as Iran was very close to getting nuclear weapons which would threaten the future of Israel & change the balance of power in the region.

No VAR (what is it good for?) as the home nation is not in the top division.
The Yanks are in charge of VAR at Langley Park,the Iranians are disputing the last Israeli strike was offside by a nose.

That's the game at play. It'll be like the equivalent of an Iranian WHOicide by the time everyone's finished teasing them.

Iran already being goaded in to hitting civvy locations has put them in a bad position instead of targeting military bases etc.

So, no different to what Iran do now then?

Good. Let them empty as much of their ARSENAL as possible so they are left depleted and weak as fuck for the long term future.

Away win?

Israel struck first, then Iran responded but another decent attack from the Jews saw them go ahead.

If it goes to a "shootout" then my moneys on the yids!
