Official US-Israel-Iran War Thread

If he is a liar so is Hamas in your video

I know the history of the conflict very well

Makes zero sense.

The Israeli army is expected to dismiss a case against undercover Israeli special forces who shot to death two Palestinian children and their parents, despite not questioning the officers involved, i24 News reported.
In March, Israeli forces opened fire on 37-year-old Ali Bani Odeh's vehicle while he was driving in the northern West Bank town of Tammun, killing him, his wife Waad, 35, and Mohammad and Othman - aged five and seven respectively.
Only Mustafa, eight, and Khaled, 12, survived the attack, though they sustained shrapnel wounds to the face and head.
The soldiers prevented Palestinian ambulance crews from reaching the vehicle. After detaining the two children for over half an hour, they allowed them to approach the ambulance on the condition that they leave the area immediately after taking them.

i certainly didnt originate it, but posted it back on page ten or something.

still funny though and bears repeating.

A few centuries ago Europe was in the midst of what was known as "The Hundred Year War". Trump is determined to top that.

When the Fake News says that the Iranian enemy is doing well, Militarily, against us, it’s virtual TREASON in that it is such a false, and even preposterous, statement. They are aiding and abetting the enemy! All it does is give Iran false hope when none should exist. These are American cowards that are rooting against our Country. Iran had 159 ships in their Navy — Every single ship is now resting at the bottom of the sea. They have no Navy, their Air Force is gone, all Technology is gone, their “leaders” are no longer with us, and the Country is an Economic Disaster. Only Losers, Ingrates, and Fools are able to make a case against America!

Do you guignols runners have a word about this subject?

Interesting when the NY Times publishes an article 2 years late about Israelis sexually assaulting Palestinian hostages the lobby tries to resurrect all the bs claims from october 7th. THERE IS NO DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE ON OCTOBER 7TH YET WE HAVE VIDEOS OF ISRAELIS ACTUALLY DOING THIS CRIME.

New: Classified military intelligence assessments from early this month show Iran has regained access to most of its missile sites, launchers and underground facilities. Including: U.S. intel assesses Iran has restored operational access to 30 of the 33 missile sites it maintains along the Strait of Hormuz, and ~90% of Iran's underground missile sites are "partially or fully operational."

No one ever denied that, if it wanted to, the US military (mainly air force) could smash things up in Iran and degrade its military capacity for a period of time. What surprised Trump & Co is that they DID this and have, so far, gotten nothing for it-- less than nothing when you consider the cost in both monetary and reputational terms (to say nothing of the possibility that, in failing to defeat it, the US has inadvertently increased the long term regional power and influence of the regime).

You see, it's the "getting something" part, not the "smashing things up" part, that constitutes victory in modern war.* And would any America have said 6 month ago that going to war with Iran at the cost of 30 billion and counting, plus increased inflation and the risk of a recession, was worth it in order to make sure Iran didn't get the bomb-- when everyone knows there are cheaper and more effective ways of achieving this end (to wit: Demand that Israel give up its nukes in return for enriched uranium from Iran.)?

*Unless you're Israel, for whom the "smashing things up and killing people part" seems to be an end in itself-- maybe because the world outside of Israel, including the people in it, appears to be a fiction to many--maybe most-- Israelis. And, really, why don't Israelis seem to care about the global and regional implications of a potentially failed state (Iran) of 90 million souls, or even just the price of fuel!? If they do, it hasn't blunted their support for perpetual war.

Treated well?

Full depravity of Hamas’ sexual brutality laid bare in damning new Oct. 7 report: ‘It was done for fun’

@nypost

“I don’t know what they took before they did this, they were like animals. There were several of them, and they genuinely enjoyed it,” one victim said of the abuse by Hamas fighters.

The new Pentagon $29B number is most likely a gross under estimate of the cost. Early on, they said it was costing $1B/day and now it is 10 weeks in. Those numbers do not include damage to US bases and equipment. It also does not include replenisment of spent weapons / munitions. This admin lies about everything and fires people who don't lie for them. These liars think $29B sounds like a good number. 3 times that or more is a likely real number.

Israel is now perceived more negatively than any other country in the world, followed by North Korea, Afghanistan and Iran, according to new global polling published by Nira Data as part of its 2026 democracy and country perception research.
The five most positively perceived countries were Switzerland, Canada, Japan, Sweden and Italy.
The findings place Israel at the bottom of the Global Country Perceptions 2026 ranking, a survey of 46,667 respondents assessing how 129 countries and three international organisations are viewed around the world. The ranking was published alongside Nira Data’s 2026 Democracy Perception Index, which surveyed 94,146 respondents across 98 countries on how citizens experience democracy in their own countries.

your vile anti semitic rants are having the intended effect and empowering terrorists

The United States also suffered a dramatic collapse in global standing. Washington is now ranked among the five most negatively perceived countries in the world, below both Russia and China in international favourability. Its net perception score fell from +22 per cent in 2024 to -16 per cent in 2026, a 38-point drop in just two years.
US decline came amid growing anger over President Donald Trump’s foreign policy, including strained relations with NATO allies, aggressive tariffs, threats relating to Greenland, cuts to Ukraine aid and Washington’s role in the US-Israeli conflict with Iran. The survey found that the US is now viewed as a major global threat, behind Russia and Israel.
