Iran

So do you guys support bombing bridges with kids on them?
Let me guess, you've never ever been in harms way, scared for your life, but moved ahead anyway.

The precision of our military can take out power plants and still protect the citizens that the islamic republic, cowards that they are, put around power plants and bridges.

Our men and women in uniform display the intestinal fortitude required to fight on to reach the objective and complete their mission.

Hand wringing is beneficial to no one in the current situation.
 
A good friend of ours works as a whoop-de-doo at the local Air Force base. His team changed the orders of the day today because of a cease fire. I asked if he knew about any change in regime or access to the Straits of Hormuz. He said he "didn't know" the terms. My guess is that he can't say.

Either way, this is something that no other recent POTUS could do. Only Trump.
 
As far as the guy the rescued, they said they saw movement on the mountain.........from 40 miles away. Insanity!
Its that heartbeat detector... ******* had it working and kept it a secret... every lost hiker or manhunt could benefit from that ****... but its kept top secret.. can distinguish a human heartbeat from a great distance and pinpoint it..

Yup

The secret, never-before-used CIA tool that helped find airman downed in Iran: ‘If your heart is beating, we will find you’


WASHINGTON — The CIA used a futuristic new tool called “Ghost Murmur” to find and rescue the second American airman who was shot down in southern Iran, The Post has learned.

The secret technology uses long-range quantum magnetometry to find the electromagnetic fingerprint of a human heartbeat and pairs the data with artificial intelligence software to isolate the signature from background noise, two sources close to the breakthrough said.

It was the tool’s first use in the field by the spy agency — and was alluded to Monday afternoon by President Trump and CIA Director John Ratcliffe at a White House briefing.

“It’s like hearing a voice in a stadium, except the stadium is a thousand square miles of desert,” a source briefed on the program told The Post. “In the right conditions, if your heart is beating, we will find you.”

This source and another with knowledge of Lockheed Martin intelligence collection tools told The Post that Ghost Murmur was developed by Skunk Works, the aerospace giant’s secretive advanced development division. The company declined to comment.......



In other news, Floggy hates this technology.
 
Well that didn't last very long. Who is shocked?



Or maybe there was never any agreement. Every time Trump says they’re negotiating or that they’re close to an agreement, Iran immediately denies it claiming that they aren’t even talking. It is entirely possible that there was never an agreement on a ceasefire.
 
Leaders are eliminated. We are about 6 layers down now. New guy says I will negonegotiate with Trump. Thug points gun at new guys head and says no. So new guy either gets killed by fellow Iranian for negotiating or gets killed by US for not negotiating.

Rock....hard place.

Yeah I just can't understand why people would want to live on the edge of constant fear or be in a constant state of war. Iran could be a flourishing country with the amount of resources they have
 
This post is worth reading for the replies. This Iranian Congresswoman from AZ (Yassamin Ansari), who supposedly has IRGC family members, was crying all day on X. Iranians here in the US lit her up.

Good.

Thankfully not my district, but it's always been a D stronghold as it covers most of downtown and south Phoenix.
On a positive note, she only won her primary by 39 votes, so maybe someone steps up this year.
 
Did the Afghans have the same weaponry when Russia invaded?
You’re literally proving my point.

HELPED

They had no problem recruiting modern day cavemen to fight. Good luck finding that in the U.S.
You also keep ignoring the fact (presented to you countless times) that in the hypothetical situation where our Government turned on its citizens, a large portion of the military forces and police forces would NOT support said tyranny. As such, the citizenry would acquire through defection some % of military assets as well.
No, you can’t follow along and forget that you replied “Perhaps” to the following:

The American people would also need another country, or a faction of its own military, to decimate a significant part of the military before they could rise up against their government.

Luke has been there since the early 40's. I laugh at those complaining about the noise.

Protected? No, you take out power plants, civilians eventually die as hospitals, water treatment, and food distribution is severely impacted.

you've previously stated that you work at a medical facility, and as such made vague reference to that facility as being a hospital. Does that particular hospital NOT have a backup generator, as nearly every goddamned hospital on the face of the planet does, to prevent power disruption during surgeries and to patients?

No son, your reading comprehension sucks. I've not once disagreed with you that Iranians would need help. And that we would need help. Not once. You THINK I have because you make **** up in your head when you get yourself confused and lost after the 2nd reply.

The Afghans started off ARMED. And they got help.
The Iranians are getting help but are NOT armed.

Read that 17 times, slowly.

An unarmed populace never has a chance to defend itself. Armed populaces do, and have.
They had no problem recruiting modern day cavemen to fight. Good luck finding that in the U.S.

What????? I'll take an American hunter, an avid shooter, or a redneck over a caveman any day. We are in a BETTER position than having to rely on Afghan cavemen.

Queue the reading comprehension comment again...

You pull out a word, obfuscate it, and ignore the rest of the reply. We would need and get help, that's for sure. And being armed - being the world's largest Army - we would fare very well.
 
Iran stopping Oil tankers today, lol. Drop pamphlets with drones or whatrever around the power plants to tell the sheep what's about to happen and then blow the powerplants to bits.
