You bring up an important point which is pace and tempo. Just how long can all respective parties keep up their kinetic engagement regimes before completing objectives or having to dial back their strategic goals and adjust strategy. Missiles, drones, jets and all the flashy gadgets are tools...

Word is that the Houthis launched missiles at Israel and USN intercepted them on route due to a ship Being close to Yemen.

Any attack on Israel would have to be comprehensive in scope right off the bat. Launching thousands of suicide drones from various points across the Middle East (also Iranian soil) alongside a smaller of number of cruise missiles, should place heavy burden on their IADS. Couple that with mass...

It’s me I confess. This is a burner account 🙏🤣

I hope when times comes (if it comes), Iran is ready to act decisively.

Isn't that what planning an attack is all about? Choosing your targets carefully so you can deliver a measured response, allowing your enemy to move out personnel ultimately mitigating potential further escalation; thus justifying waiting several days. The targets may have been predetermined...

Yes. Nukes invite nukes, it would mean the end of Iran as a nation-state plus unmitigated destruction. Closing the Hormuz wouldn't have nearly as bad repercussions compared to a nuclear exchange. But I see your mind is set on this matter so I won't reply further. Agree to disagree.

I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they’re still shoring up their assets and moving them into place or something, idk. Ayn Al-Assad took several days to plan then carry out after all.

Yeah, no it wouldn’t lol. Nuking Israel is far worse than a temporary closing of the Straight of Hormuz.

On the contrary, I don’t believe the Americans are teddy bears whatsoever but a shooting war with Iran is a different beast altogether. That’s all I’m trying to say.

Don’t know honestly, Iranian armed forces are designed to take on American military might through an asymmetrical approach to warfare. This entails passive defenses, mobile platforms spanning thousands of kilometers, large underground missile complexes dug deep into steep mountainous terrain...

“Time is Up” though

They can mine the straight and threaten all traffic with the literal thousands of AshCMs and AshBMs hidden along the Southern Coastline in many underground bases, “missile cities”. IRGC has built truly substantial infrastructure in the West and South of Iran solely dedicated to missile firing...

not all too confident in their ability to target and score successful hits on CBGs (or any ship) at range given that we haven’t seen what a targeting chain looks like aside from possible OTH radars being used and maybe daisy chaining drones to relay coordinates. I believe AshBMs and cruise...

God knows what this implies.

I’m not a weapons expert, so I cannot definitively say whether or not this was a misfired PIJ/HAMAS rocket or an Israeli JDAM. But I highly doubt that matters much now. Sentiments regarding the war were already set in stone and this event (regardless of who perpetrated it) fueled the flames...

We need patience on this matter as the situation regarding the hospital doesn’t look to be all that clear
