If Turkiye doesnt stack up on Deterrents like Nuclear, Chemical, Biological and EMPs. It will be all over.

Turkiye will be left alone which means nobody is gonna help us or even save us. Not Europe, Islamic World, Arab world, Turkic World, African Union and Far East Asia.

The Jews have destroyed the Arabs and the Iranians.

They are going to go after the Turks.

All thanks to Sultan Bayezid II. Its all his fault.
Türkiye also shouldn't advertise any intentions to acquire nukes. Just do it quietly.

I must say Gazap is pretty fucking terrifying, they should be mass produced and a variety of delivery methods should be prepared.

It can't, process is pretty apparent.

Gazap is an Mk-84 sized 1 ton bomb; there's nothing "terrifying" about it.

Nuke is a very, very expensive weapon, and must use combin with ICBM and satellite system.
For most of country, it is a trap which would burn the most of defence budget.
It is also a question that whether all the citizen could accept they will live in poor for a long time.

I highly doubt that. There's no American interest to wage a war against Iran that would grant public support for it. The idea was already very unpopular to begin with. If Iran can prove that attacking their country will cost you an arm and a leg then what argument would the warhawks use to sell the public on it? It's not like Iran is encircling the US so you could come up with self-defense arguments. It's a losing proposition for all accounts.

And it's not even just about today. If the US can get away with attacking the Iran today, they will do that again and again in the future. Iran has to pay the price today to save themselves the headache in the future. If they could, they should sink US ships and annihilate US bases. Iran has limited number of missiles and they shouldn't waste them on Israel. It's not like the US will land troops and fight the Iraninan soldiers. There cannot be another Iraq for the US. They cannot afford it.
I don't think you're aware of how gullible and overly emotional a large segment of the US public is. I'm not even talking about the MAGA crew but regular Americans who already don't particularly care for anyone or anything in the Middle-East and are only lukewarm on the idea of permanent occupation. They have no real qualms with the US army going in to steamroll anything that moves and then nuke the remains for good measure before leaving.

During 12 day war, Israel controlled Iran airspace bombed the hell out of whole country, yet nothing happened to neither nuclear facilities nor Hamanei.

Now, the first very strike with tomahawks targeted Hamanei's house and he is dead.

I have lots of questions.

Iran barely has a proper air force and air defence systems.

They were warned about this so many times.

They destroyed most of Iran's air defences and BM TELs during the 12 day war. Iran simply couldn't replenish its stocks in time and so decision makers decided to finish them off before they could possibly recover.

I guess it's odd that they didn't accomplish this in a single campaign, and waited over half a year to make the next move.

we need 7-8 peaceful years to build and upgrade our airforce to Israel's quality level and numbers. but that wouldn't cut it alone even if we had the most powerful conventional force in the region. nukes turn the equation upside down. there's no substitute for them. we need at least 100 warheads with 300 kilotons of yield. I hope we're doing something about it.

Yes exactly. This is what I mean.

You are warned yet you are staying at home... come on...

Besides, what did hold Israel in 12 day war to do the same? They could hit whatever and wherever they wanted.

They could have done it the first time if they really wanted, they just want whoever is there to play ball and be a good little puppet. So if threatening the existing one and leaving them defenseless doesnt work they just put the final nail in coffin and place new one

US Central Command released footage of strikes on Iran. The strikes on Iran involved American BGM-109 Tomahawk cruise missiles, aircraft, drones, and ATACMS ballistic missiles launched from M142 HIMARS launchers. The strikes targeted Iranian Shahed-129 drones, Khordad-15 air defense systems, and other targets.

apart from all this, Arab states have hundreds of combat fighters, but can't defend against simple Shahed drones
Those warplanes and air defense systems are only physically present in those countries. I believe that all the military equipment in the Arab world is controlled by America or Europe. We saw this most recently in the Israeli attack on Qatar.

This is untrue. We have footage of Emirati fighters in air at night refueling armed with full A2A loadouts, Qatari fighters flying with their transponders on and written accounts of officials talking about interceptions.

We only have a handful of drones and rockets hitting these countries, because majority of them are intercepted by the fighters and air defence. 5 drones hitting Dubai, 2 rockets hitting Abu Dhabi, 2 drones hitting Bahrain or one rocket hitting Qatar is not proof that they are failing to intercept them; that's not how the math works. Per unofficial estimates for example Iran sent about 150 rockets and 250 drones to UAE. We've seen 10-15 hits at most; that's less than 10% hit rate.

You didn't see Qatari aircraft intercepting Israeli aircraft last year, because they neither had the time to react, nor would the Israelis would allow themselves to be intercepted.
