If the Iranians had a 100K ballistic missiles, truth be told they could probably really f'k isreal up. But everywhere i read it says they have from 2000 to 3000 which isnt really enough, considering they got the USA overhanging them.
Nobody know the real numbers. And right now, they increase the mass production.

If the US doesn't put boots on the ground and the regime survives, then Iran will houndred percent rebuild its nuclear program, but this time it will most likely try to get Chinese help in rebuilding and modernising its military.

If the regime falls and the US doesn't put Troops on the ground, then it will be anarchy. It will not only lead to a Civil war but also a Middle Eastern equivalent of Operation Paperclip, with every Middle Eastern power scramble to get their hands on Iran's Rocket and nuclear scientists, as well as any of their works.

I have been suspecting that the US economy cannot handle another Middle East war while the US is engaged in great power competition, and it seems others are coming to the same conclusion.

USA is delaying to prepare for a greater war or attack. Thats why they need more time.

China will benefit in any case.
1 -
If the U.S. intervenes in the Iranian region, it won’t be able to withdraw for at least 10 years. During this time, China will have the opportunity to strengthen its power comfortably.
2 - If the Iranian regime does not collapse, it will try to bolster its military power by directing all its resources to China once the war ends. In turn, China will gain significant economic profit by selling weapons and technology.

I think we need to bring china in this equation. If usa gets dragged in a long war by israel (or maybe usa uses israel actually as an excuse to enter), then wouldn't china use this opportunity to expand?


If i had to guess at a political level the Isrealis and Chinese have a great relationship. What gets said publicly is just for domestic or international consumption, it doesn't reflect the real state of affairs between both states.

Remember isrealis are not stupid, in the background they will appease the chinese to stay out of their way and likewise the chinese wouldnt want to bring international zionism against them.

Also worth keeping in mind that like Isreal, China is terrorising and destroying her Muslim population. Not once have we ever heard the Israelis mention the Uyghurs.

Trump Will Decide on Iran Attack ‘Within the Next Two Weeks,’ White House Says

It's his favorite unit of time, two weeks: short enough for him to be able to claim he's considering it, long enough for media cycle to end and people to move on. He uses it when he's not going to do anything (recall his repeated use of two-week deadlines with Putin).

1.USA will not involved into Israel war within 2 weeks.
2. Intercept rate of Iranian missiles today, ~65%.
Intercept rate is highly debatable. Israel typically launches multiple interceptors (usually two) per engagement. This is probably the success of the engagement, not the missile itself.

Yeah, Israel has good relations with China, but unlike the US, Israel doesn't control the Chinese state and society through trade, espionage, and infiltration. I think Israel will dump the US fast if China rises as the clear winner of the great power competition, but I doubt that because we are moving into another cold war scenario where there are two spheres similar to the US and USSR but this time China will be equal to the US not only militarily but also economically.

Such a scenario means regional powers like Turkiye will gain importance. This is why the US is trying to wrap up loose ends before that happens. Turkiye will hold a lot of leverage when fierce competition starts and the US can't afford to play games with proxies like YPG.

The "only democracy in the region" has just made any footage showing the skies during Iranian missile attacks and/or damages inflicted thereof, illegal!
They banned foreign networks (that are allowed to be) active there from filming during the raid or reporting about the damages!

You can't make that sh1t up!

Israel or not, Trump is risk-averse, isolationist, and so far the signals point to him not wanting to commit to military action. The main scenario I see in which he joins is if he is convinced that the war is already practically won and he decides to share in the glory of being a victor. But I find this scenario less likely.

Relatives of Israeli soldiers killed in Iranian bombings attempted to lynch Netanyahu's children.

According to some rumors (I learned from the staff responsible for censoring British social media) many Israeli soldiers were killed in the Israeli military bases that were hit.

It is also stated that there were more missile hits than reflected in the media. It was also said that the travel ban imposed on Israeli citizens was introduced to prevent this destruction from spreading to the world.

interesting conversation on the conflict:


Asia Society Trustees Vali Nasr, Majid Khadduri professor of International Affairs and Middle East Studies at Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS); and Hamid Biglari, partner, chief strategy officer, and chairman of Asset Management and Financial Services at RedBird Capital Partners, discuss Iran's future in the Middle East. Asia Society Policy Institute Managing Director Rorry Daniels delivers introductory remarks.

Israeli influx into Southern Cyprus:
Schools turned into homes

“There are unprecedented crowds in the cities. Larnaca is an escape route for thousands of people. Schools are turning into homes” The news in the Greek media after the Israel-Iran conflict begins with these sentences.

Approximately 5,000 people who fled Israel settled in Southern Cyprus.

Due to the fact that hotels and synagogues were full, the Greek government decided to turn 7 schools, 5 of which were primary schools and 2 were high schools, into ‘homes’.

Air conditioning and beds were installed in the schools under the coordination of the Greek Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Education. Security was also increased to the highest level in the areas where the schools are located.

The Greek Cypriot airspace also started to serve 500 additional flights per day. It was reported that air traffic control personnel were having a hard time due to the excessive density.

120 yachts carrying Israelis anchored in Larnaca port yesterday.
