Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

[Kan]

The Iranian president's olive branch offered to the Gulf countries has been snatched away by the IRGC? If so the war blunders on with Iran, the Gulf countries, Israel, Lebanon all suffering further damage and the rest of the world suffering damaging economic consequences.

Iran wants to destroy Israel. Not happening.
Iran wants to destroy the US. Not happening.
Israel wants to destroy Iran. Happening in part but regime surviving.
US wants to destroy Iran and change its government. Happening in part but regime surviving.

Any reason to think the situation will change over the next week or weeks apart from damage to all parties will increase?

PS I don't see any winners in all this.

1- I don't see much changing ....but Iran will lose more military hardware, etc = obviously - see # 4
2 - most wars end with no clear winner or loser but objectives can be attained by both sides such as in the Korean War, Yom Kippur War, etc
3 - Iran's economy is in the dumpster and they are running out of ----- WATER!! = the Iranian people are not happy and won't be for a long time .......
4 - a key issue is how does this destruction of Iranian military hardware/etc affect the Iranian people's attitude for/against the regime and the US ?

Among many confusing reasons why US has started war against Iran was a war against a theological government spreading war in the region.

not confusing at all ....the Iranians [ and the Pals ] have been committing terrorism for decades ...they use suicidal vest/truck/etc bombs .....they kidnap, TORTURE, and murder innocents
...they use suicidal truck bombs to blow up embassies and take over embassies and take hostages
.---you can't allow them to get nukes/fire ballistic missiles/etc etc

 

[Kan]

Personally, I think the missiles fired at Turkey, Azerbaijan, and some Arab countries were launched from Iranian airspace by Israeli aircraft. as air lora rockets.

Similarly, I believe some of the unmanned kamikaze drones may have been launched by the USA or Israel to open new fronts in the war or to put Iran in a difficult position.

The commander of US Central Command explicitly stated that the "Lucas" drone was a copy of the Iranian Shahed drone. After this drone exploded, no one can tell whether it was a Lucas or a Shahed.

but there is no proof of that

Only two bombs can preventing us to get into a WW3. Like it or not, believe it or not. But if the whole mankind is in a serious dangerous, they have to do, what is necessary.

most wars are contained = not world wars, and not total .....the probability of a world war is low

1. Iran wants to destroy Israel. Not happening.
2. Iran wants to destroy the US. Not happening.

1. Is happening.
2. In Middle East is happening.

 

[Kan]

1. Is happening.
2. In Middle East is happening.

1 -Iran and the US are really punishing Iran to say the LEAST !
2 - tiny tiny Israel [[ who has been outnumbered in ALL categories, and ''surrounded''' with a narrow front! ]] has defeated her much larger enemies every time--- all together = Israel survived all of that
3 - the US has a mighty, great and large military....Israel's is even better! considering # 2
[[ a narrow front is a great disadvantage in war ]]

 

[Huelague]

Trump threatened Iran with a complete destruction.
Nobody know what that means ( massdestruction by nukes?). I said it before, if they want to survive, they have to nuke Israel first. As soon as possible.

One single bullet turned the world into a world war.

The Trump admin is living in delulu land and will lead to the biggest damage and humiliation the US will have experience since the Vietnam war if they do not let actual adults not being blackmailed by Israel take the lead.

-----

also during all of this the Doj has released documents in which Trump is being credibly accused of sexual assault btw, what a incredible timing.

-----

It will be interesting to see who is more incompetent Iran or Israel/US over the next few days.

1 - you can't compare this to the Nam war [ which was unwinnable and not a loss ]
2 - easy to say who is more competent and it's definitely not Iran ......tiny tiny Israel [[ who was at a great disadvantage and outnumbered in all categories with a narrow front ]] defeated her much larger enemies --ALL together !
3 - even with some of the highest oil and NGas reserves in the world, Iran's economy has been going down since 1979! and is in the dumpster now --and they are running out of ----- WATER!!
4 - their decisions are based on a suicidal medieval religious ideology = failure
5- they [ Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran,Libya, etc ] are really not ''countries'' as much as tribes where the strongest [ not the smartest ] survive ...... their politics and culture are coups, bloody coups, terrorism, suicide !!, murdering not one, but MANY political opponents, etc etc
== some of the proof is in how they [ all combined ] can't even defeat tiny tiny tiny Israel, etc etc

possible yes - but the facts are behind me when I said PROBABLY no
--the last world war was in 1945 and there have been hundreds of conflicts/wars since then
--even wars with MULTIPLE participants, they were contained and not world or total wars::
-Korean = China, Russia, US, UK, etc etc
--PG1 = long list of participants
--NATO in the Balkan Wars
-even wars where participants had nukes
etc

Before First World War starts, how many wars were conducted? It has nothing to do with numbers. Even the actors can be second-rated. The intention and willingness, next to the capabilities are important. What we see right now, is the collapsing of the World Order. In my opinion, it can only be prevented by nuking Israel.

2 - tiny tiny Israel [[ who has been outnumbered in ALL categories, and ''surrounded''' with a narrow front! ]] has defeated her much larger enemies every time--- all together = Israel survived all of that

You need to calm down,it was never tiny tiny Israel against larger enemies.
In every war Israel had help from the US and Western European countries.
Help as in fighting for Israel plus military equipment so dont come here claiming things which are not true.

3 - the US has a mighty, great and large military....Israel's is even better! considering # 2
[[ a narrow front is a great disadvantage in war ]]

So,Israel has a better military then the great and large US military,are you ok?
Israel couldnt even defeat Hamas or Hezbollah yet you claim it did.

... is in how they [ all combined ] can't even defeat tiny tiny tiny Israel, etc etc

How are they all going to defeat tiny, tiny, tiny Israel if, at the most "interesting moment", some big guy with a huge, huge, huge club comes sailing from the other side of the ocean on a huge, huge, huge ship and starts beating them up?

 

[Huelague]

Let’s collect some fact.
How many ADM Israel has? How many can they produce per year? How many are they used right now?

Ridiculous and grotesque to me to suggest that Iran was responsible for blowing up the school in which all those children died. Mind you, what was the idea of putting the school next to an IRGC facility?

?? are you referring to the Arab-Israeli wars?

 

[Huelague]

Trump needs to wrap this up very soon or go all in.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Now choose your poison.

1 - ''calm down''' ?? what ?? - you can't tell if I'm calm or not hahahhahahaha
2 - and Russia was helping the Arabs = help as in giving military equipment to the Arabs = cancels out US help to Israel
--US fighting for Israel?? the US never did directly fight for Israel during the Arab-Israeli Wars -- = you are the one spewing ''untruths'''
3 - UNDENIABLE fact : Israel had enemies above/in front/ and below her with her back to the Sea = ''surrounded'''....1967 = Israel was outnumbered in tanks, troops, etc etc and defeated Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq --- when they were allied together ....and defeated them ''easily'' [ SIX days ]
--Israel defeated many MORE countries in the Yom Kippur War
3 - fighting Hezbollah and Hamas is mainly a war on terrorists which probably will never end [ akin to America's war on terror/Afghanistan/etc
----if Israel wanted to, they could shove the Pals into the sea ...but they have shown IMMENSE restraint
--Operation Peace for Galilee = Israel could've wiped out the PLO, but were stopped by the US
caps for emphasis only --
