Iran-Israeli Conflict Thread

Social Media is sus and filled with people using explosion from Syria as visual that Fordow is destroyed.

I'll believe when Polymarket confirms and the comments by holders are entertaining.

Natanz and Isfahan were hit only by Tomahawks so destruction of underground structures seems unlikely, but Fordow caught 6 bunker busters.
Gonna wait for sat photos.

Allegedly, up to 9 (!) B-2s took part, six dropping 12 MOPs on Fordow, 20 TLAMs hitting Natanz and Isfahan, and one B-2 dropping a pair of MOPs on Natanz as well. 2 B-2s I assume were held in reserve.

I feel part of this is peacocking to China, i.e. look what Global Strike Command can still do with a 30+ year-old airframe nearing retirement...how's your AAA around the Three Gorges Dam looking?
 

Here are the published comments that led to McCormack's removal:

May 2025: "Netanyahu and his judeosupremacist cronies are determined to prolong the conflict for their own goals: either to remain in power or to annex the land."

June 2024: "The more Israel's death cult escalates toward Hezbollah, the more we will see show-of-force attacks like this and 13 April."

June 2024: “The U.S. has not been an honest broker. We have overwhelmingly enabled Israel’s bad behavior.”

May 2024: Amid talk of pushing Gaza residents into other countries, McCormack wrote, "[Israel] wants to expel them and cleanse 'Eretz Israel' of ethnic Palestinians."

April 2024: “I’ve lately been considering whether we might be Israel’s proxy and not realized it yet. Our worst ‘ally.’ We get literally nothing out of the ‘partnership’ other than the enmity of millions of people in the Middle East, Africa and Asia.”

Oct 2023: "I agree that Israel has an absolute right to respond militarily, and that civilians may legally be caught in the crossfire, but you are ignoring the requirement of proportionality. Israel’s responses always (always—not hyperbole) disproportionately target Palestinian civilians."

My understanding is that only a tactical nuke can even get close to destroying the centrifuges at Fordo. Maybe if those 12 bombs hit the exact same spot each time, they could get halfway there. But how plausible is that?

I quit listening when she said that Russia and China had a more natural alliance because they are collectivist countries and more centralized.

Maybe that's just a throw away line for her, I hope so, but Russia and China broke up when they both more Commie and almost had their own nuclear war in the early 70's.

Agreed that they are not natural allies, however, they are both very much enemies of the United States so they have that in common.
 
Another thing: Trump's wording and messages make it clear that this is only the first stage of the operation (not a one-time precision strike like some are claiming).

He keeps insisting that Iran must "make peace". But what does that even mean? Completely nonsensical, as Iran are the ones being attacked. How are they supposed to make peace? On what terms?

The end goal is of course regime change (it was never about "nuclear weapons"). But can this be achieved without US troops on the ground? Unlikely. I think we might see a false flag yet.
