According to the Wall Street Journal, citing multiple U.S. officials, Iran has targeted the joint U.S.-UK base at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean with two intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBM). According to the report, one missile failed in flight whilst the other was engaged by a U.S. destroyer utilizing an SM-3 interceptor, but a successful interception was not confirmed. None of the missiles hit the base. This is notable as Iranian long-range precision fires have not previously been publicly assessed as having the range to hit such a target as Diego Garcia, as the base is some 4,000 kilometers from Iran proper.
Guy in this picture even kinda looks like Trump when he's scowling
Sounds like they're working on increasing the range and are testing it out now. Just a little more (~4500 - 5000km?) then it can reach UK which is another staging area for US B-1 & B-52 Bombers that are flying to hit Iran.
The Euros were smart to stay out of this and even did not allow their air space to be used for the Coalition's bombing runs.
WTF were they doing in Iraq in 2026?! Talk about shabbos goys...Polish soldiersreturnrun away from Iraq.
EMJ was in Qom in a crowd that shouted 'death to America' but no one hurt him and one declared he wants to go there. It's like anywhere, modern world, you take advantage of what is profitable, this is how Iran has a highly educated society. Only NK shuts itself completely.I just want to point out a lot of the rhetoric from the leadership of Iran is fake. All this stuff about the west being the great Satan and “death to America” etc is all theatre. The current Ayatollah Moshtaba Khamenei owns hundreds of millions of dollars of property in London and also previously (10 years ago or something) flew over to get high level medical treatment in top tier hospitals in England. Many top officials in Iran sent their kids to study in American universities etc. the same usual hypocrisy and theatre that you would see from politicians anywhere in the world. Just pointing this out for certain posters on this forum who buy the rhetoric from Iranian leadership that they consider America the “great satan” etc.
