To destroy any Iranian military facilities, infrastructure, military industry, etc., the Americans don't need to literally descend from the sky onto Iranian soil; they can do it all from the air.

In American military strategy, the Air Force plays a primary role, but in the case of Iran, it is currently practically the only role. (If they sometimes sink Iranian warships with ballistic missiles, they do so purely spontaneously, apparently for training and even as a joke (in the last three days, the Americans have sunk 30 Iranian, so to speak, warships!)
The Iranian ayatollahs and the military under their command have made many mistakes...
Look, if you have a huge land army and you've chosen Israel, which is 1,000 km away, as your enemy, then of course you should take control of Iraq and Syria, and preferably also Lebanon, Hezbollah, and if you also want Yemen, that's perfectly fine. Iran has done just that: hundreds of thousands of Iranian proxy forces have been stationed in all of these countries. For 10 years, Iran has been building up its military infrastructure in Syria, right on Israel's borders. Israel has been primarily focused on destroying them all this time.
But, unfortunately for the ayatollahs, the main component of the Israeli armed forces is the Air Force. With its Air Force They destroyed Iranian forces everywhere, just as they are doing today inside Iran.
But Iran has no air force or air defense!

As if it didn't have enough enemies, Iran was also in conflict with America, Israel's strategic ally. 🙄 That's unreasonable.
In short, Iran had great ambitions but little ammunition.
This often ends badly.
as i said before, US and Israel can do anything they want, including bombing iran until doomsday. but iran is very old civilization, they knew how to survive. no iran oil mean every nation in deepsh*t. but when its stop, iran can rebuild it, including using china hand, a very thirsty country in oil. hormuz is very fragile choke point..and iran can make it as weapon. soo without area acquitition, that s mean not only 0 iran oil but majority of meiddle east oil strop flowing, everything US and israel doing is zero.

From the looks of it this war will be over within a week.
Maybe a bit longer, but not more that 1 month, I guess.
Iran launched multiple attacks on the USS Lincoln aircraft carrier using unmanned suicide boats. Although these attacks were unsuccessful, they give U.S Navy a profound impression.
Oil price has reach 100 and could keeep for long time, which greatly supports Russia and strikes a blow at the United States and its allies.
Or U.S can choose to be the next Soviet Union, if they want.

How lame that countries don't invest in domestic fertilizer production. Politicizing the issue and hindering its development and production is likely what's going on.

it was intercepted on air


maybe aöerican should have agree with selling petriot missles as well as its TOT of it turkey have great manufacting capaciy and would have produce fairly more missiles and cheaper then rest of nato combined but americans being americans now they are in this deep shit
The americans rarely share their tech. Most of the time its just transfer of production like we saw with our f16 and now Rheinmetall with their future Pac 2/3 production line. I think the only time we got TOT was with the ACV15.

During the Russo-Japanese War of 1904, the Russians decided to transfer their "legendary and formidable" Baltic Fleet to the Pacific Front. During the voyage, in the Tsushima Strait (Japan), the Imperial Japanese Navy completely destroyed the Russian fleet. In Russian historiography, this naval "battle" is called the Tsushima Disaster.

After the Americans sank the Iranian fleet, the Russians began to worry about the fate of their "legendary and mighty" Baltic Fleet.

Aftor suggests hiding the Baltic Fleet, just as they hide the "legendary and invincible" Black Sea Fleet🫢

-------------------------

"Tsushima in Hormuz": What can we learn from the defeat of the Iranian fleet?

The unilateral destruction of the Iranian fleet, which ceased to exist in just a few days, gives rise to rather grim thoughts. Could the Tsushima-off-Hormuz incident repeat itself in the event of a conflict with NATO in the Baltic Sea, and can it be avoided?

Tsushima-off-Hormuz

According to various estimates, the US Air Force and Navy were able to destroy between 30 and 58 surface ships of the Islamic Republic of Iran without significant losses.

The attack, carried out without a declaration of war, effectively prevented such catastrophic losses, as the Iranian regular navy was unable to accomplish any of its combat missions.

They immediately lost their corvettes and unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as several missile boats based at their bases. However, according to CENTCOM intelligence from March 11, 2026, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps managed to salvage approximately 90% of its "mosquito fleet," which was dispersed across various anchorages!

By the end of the second week of "Epic Fury," Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had maintained its combat capability, even with only small speedboats, and had accomplished its mission of blockading the Strait of Hormuz. Yes, they are suffering losses, but the Americans failed to destroy all the "mosquitoes" at once. This raises some questions about our own expectations in the event of a direct naval conflict with NATO.

Frankly, if a "Second Livonian War" breaks out, the Baltic Fleet has no chance. The US Air Force and Navy have clearly demonstrated how this can happen, using the regular Iranian Navy as an example. We should have no illusions about this!

Therefore, I would like to once again demand the immediate withdrawal of the most valuable surface ships from the Baltic Sea: patrol ships and corvettes to the Northern and Pacific Fleets, small missile ships to Lake Ladoga, and small landing craft to the Black Sea. There they might have been truly useful, but in the Baltic Sea they would have been senselessly destroyed at the most unexpected moment, right in port, by a massive missile strike.

Im not really sure if comparing the iranian navy to the russian navy is fair not that it would fare differently for them. Iran didn't have a real navy to beginn with our 15 year old Ada's are more capable than any of their ships and that lack of quality is present in all of the branches. The only thing they had were their sam systems and their ballistic missiles and their cruise missiles and loitering munition.
Their sam system were crap we knew that before the war the most modern on was the s300 which is 30 years behind. The cruise missiles are not that good because of weak electronics and are still relatively expensive compared to their effectiveness. The only thing that poses a danger are their loitering munition simply because of their quantity and the ballistic missiles because intercepting something that fast is difficult.

David McIntosh, who worked at Gaza aid sites [GHF], shared unseen videos saying that the IDF “openly fire on civilians for fun.”

He said aid workers tried to help starving Palestinians, but the IDF sabotaged their work and “freely commit war crimes with ease.”

Footage shows the soldiers mounted on tanks firing at civilians.

Security Council Debates Iran Nuclear Programme amid Dispute over ‘Snapback’ Sanctions as Russian Federation, China Challenge Legality​


The Security Council met today to debate Iran’s nuclear programme amid rising tensions in the Middle East, as the Russian Federation and China challenged the legality of United Nations sanctions on Tehran under the “snapback” mechanism.

The “snapback” mechanism, embedded in Council resolution 2231 (2015), allows UN sanctions on Iran to automatically return if Tehran is judged to be violating the nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, agreed by Iran, China, France, Germany, Russian Federation, United Kingdom, United States and the European Union.

If a participant in the deal notifies the Council of “significant non-performance”, a 30-day process begins. Unless the Council adopts a resolution to continue sanctions relief, the previous UN sanctions automatically return. In August 2025, France, Germany and the United Kingdom triggered this process. The Council later failed to adopt resolutions that would have preserved sanctions relief, so the mechanism ran its course and UN sanctions on Iran, including resolution 1737 (2006), were automatically reimposed on 27 September 2025.

At the outset, the representatives of the Russian Federation and China objected to holding today’s session, arguing that the “snapback” mechanism had not been activated. France, United Kingdom and the United States, however, insisted that the mechanism had been triggered and that sanctions had therefore been reinstated. The Council subsequently decided to proceed with the meeting by a vote of 11 in favour to 2 against (China, Russian Federation), with 2 abstentions (Pakistan, Somalia).

United States Says Iran Rejected Diplomacy, Urges Enforcement of Sanctions​

“Today was meant to be a straightforward mandated meeting of the 1737 Committee,” said the representative of the United States, Council President for March, in his national capacity, referring to the 15-member organ’s Committee established pursuant to resolution 1737 (2006), which required the subsidiary body to report to the Council every 90 days on its activities.

“Unfortunately, our Russian and Chinese colleagues continued to block this Committee’s work as part of their collaboration with the Iranian regime,” he said. He recalled that, on 19 September 2025, the Council voted against a draft resolution to extend sanctions relief for Iran, thereby triggering the snapback of UN sanctions. All UN Member States should now be implementing an arms embargo against Iran, banning the trade of missile technology and freezing financial assets as laid out in previous sanctions.

Noting that Iran had ample opportunity to negotiate in good faith and allow weapons inspections, he said Tehran refused. The 1737 Iran sanctions regime remains operational, he stressed, urging Council members to press Beijing and Moscow to allow for the appointment of a Committee Chair.

Moscow, Beijing Reject Legitimacy of ‘Snapback’ Sanctions on Iran​

“We are disappointed that the majority of Council members did not muster up the courage to speak out against this flagrant violation of decisions previously taken by the Council,” said the Russian Federation’s representative. Accountability for the “lawlessness” taking place in that organ’s work falls squarely on the United States presidency and those that are following its lead.

Recalling that Washington, D.C., unilaterally withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action in 2018, he said that country — along with the United Kingdom, France and Germany — cannot trigger snapback sanctions against Iran. “These countries stripped themselves of the right to invoke the snapback by their chronic violations of [the Iran nuclear deal] and resolution 2231 (2015),” he said.

“It was the United States that unilaterally withdrew from the [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action], which triggered the Iran nuclear crisis,” agreed China’s representative, adding that Washington, D.C., also joined Israel in pursuing aggressive military action before the recent nuclear talks had even concluded. Strongly condemning that conduct, he urged the United States to reverse its course of action immediately and work towards a negotiated solution that meets the expectations of the international community. Relevant European countries should “cease fanning the flames” of war and play an equally constructive role, he said, warning that sanctions should never become tools to serve the narrow political interests of particular countries.


Another battle field.

Right.

US Central Command released footage of missile strikes on Iranian aircraft and military equipment. The video shows American missiles striking Iranian C-130H Hercules and Il-76 transport aircraft, as well as a P-3F Orion patrol aircraft and an F-5 fighter jet. It also shows strikes on 3PK Khordad 15 missile launchers, missile launchers, air defense systems, and other Iranian military equipment.
