    Putin is overly cautious. But Iran and China are worse.

    So Israel will continue to assassinate high level Iranian figures.

    What I don't get is why Iran is pussing out so much. A US air campaign won't amount to much. Iran has a huge numerical advantage as far as boots on the ground.

    The weapons embargo on Iran expired long ago. Israel crosses some more red lines and then Iran suddenly has some "oh shit" heavy lift flights coming from Russia. Why the **** don't they have everything they could possibly need from Russia already?

    What makes these mullahs tick , I'll never know.

    We should not underestimate the damage the yanks and co can inflict . A single missile into nuclear reactor , or oil well head  is catastrophic for Iran . And Iran can not retaliate in kind to the yanks . They will pull back their forces , out of range , and strike from long distance . They will repair the damage to oil well heads , as they did previously . Iran will not rebuild so easily , finances susceptible . Iran does not have a nuclear deterrent either . A heavy handed attack , even in Israel , can be retaliated by nuclear weapons .

    Unless Iran gets a credible minimum nuclear deterrence against the yanks and Israelis , and they are able to send large expeditionary land forces into the region , liberating territory from yank bases and liberating the Palestinian lands , then Iran is limited in it's response . Yemen and resistance forces can do more , because they are not fixed targets and have few targets above ground that can be hit . They are also much more homogenous as a group , with unity of purpose . Iran is in political instability , ethnic instability also . Many people have more immediate daily problems that they seek to address .

    Under these conditions , Iran can not do much more . But it can keep on supporting the frontline states . It can mirror the actions of the Zionists , something it has not done and has organisational difficulty in arranging at times . Until a day arrived , when there is more collective action by the world , to address the Palestinian plight or Iran becomes stronger , until then what we see is what we get .....mostly !

    Defences will be on high alert, now is a bad time to attack for effect... they need out of the blue surprise attacks properly planned and targeted... wait 6 months and then kill some high up Israelis.

    There is no rush and no hurry, they have plenty of time for this.

    They don't care about their defences. As shown last time they are over rated and missiles go through. Israeli Arrow system have also used many missiles against the ballistic missiles last time so numbers are for sur still low.

    With all the flights russian cargo planes are doing they are for sur equiping them to face US carriers in case of a major war.

    It's well known now the response will happen and will be huge. Playing on the time oblige Israel to defend 24/7 which puts pressure on soldiers and systems (radars working too many time with no maintenace is very bad).

    Both Russia and Iran are using this momentum created by the global situation to push forward their pawns. Russia was obliged to go in Ukraine so they will go to the end. Iran is obliged to strike back because of US policy and won't back down. Russia will be happy to send weapons that can destroy US ships to anyone. If China starts plans and action for invading Taiwan like start destroying taiwanese fishing boats and going gradually in the tensions, and North Korea start the same with south korea, US financies will be torned apart because they can't help everyone.

    Iranians can not step on the escalation ladder , same as the Israeli / Americans . They don't have nukes and only a small air force . Missiles can only do so much , useful in attack , but useless in defence . Unless Iranians get a nuclear deterrent with ICBM , or blue water navy with nuke weapons , then it is vulnerable to pre-emptive nuclear strike . The Israelis have warned about this , also that they will attack with nuclear weapons , Iranian nuclear sites . The Americans also have brought a nuclear submarine to the region , no doubt this carries nuclear tipped cruise missiles ! I have no doubt that the Israelis / Americans will fire nuclear weapons into Iran , if they could .

    A small punitive retaliation by Iran , sends a weak message . It is worse than not retaliating at all . It will not act as deterrent , nor teach a lesson or make Israelis regret . It still gives Americans opportunity to intervene ! A larger attack , sends a strong message . It is worse than sending a weak message or not retaliating at all . It will not act as deterrent or reach a lesson or make regret . It will push Americans to intervene .

    Unless Iran and axis , are ready to defeat the Israelis completely , by a full scale war , using large land Army . And they have nukes / ICBM as deterrent against WMD attack by the Zionists / Yanks , then not attacking overtly , is better than a weak attack or strong attack . As GarryB said , a tit for tat , for now is best . Israelis may carry out further attacks , and at that time a decision has to be made .

    Even conventional weapons can do enormous damage. IMO Iran's best deterrent is its ability to disrupt vital shipping in the Persian gulf. If little Yemen can do what it did in the Red Sea imagine what Iran could do, and in a more vital area.
    That said, the sad reality is, in view of its weakness relative to Israel and its toadies including the US, Iran's best option may be to do nothing in the military field--at least nothing overt--and try to get concessions from various nations. Let the US and its allies sweat it out a bit longer, then offer to desist if they agree to say, grant sanctions waivers to China, Pakistan and India for two years or so. Even something less than that would be better than giving zionists a pretext to maximize their destruction. I think Pezeshkian would agree and is acting as a restraining influence.

    Iran is doing everything right by rapidly arming up with Russia's assistance for the next episode of escalation that will inevitably unfold.

    And it's a far more significant 'response' than any shenanigance with drones and missiles against Israeli territory like last time.

    🇮🇷 NEW: Former Iranian diplomat Amir al-Mousavi told Al-Mayadeen that Iran has been threatened with a nuclear strike.

    Mousavi stressed that Iran has made it clear any nuclear attack will be met with a proportional response.

    He further noted that those issuing the threats received even stronger replies.

    He also urged people to ignore baseless claims of alleged Iranian "cowardice" circulating on social media.

    Mousavi concluded by asserting that Iran, together with its allies, is fully prepared to confront the Zionist entity with full force.

    It destroyed nothing and the message fell on dead ears

    Although I will say that the assassination of the Hamas head on Iranian territory is not the same as an Israeli attack on Iran. Which it has not yet dared to do. But that may only be a matter of time. Iran would be foolish not to prepare itself for that scenario. No more messages are going to work, so don't waste time with them or some honor-bound 'responses'

    🇮🇷🇮🇷 General Salami: We have targeted 12 Israeli ships

    They sent a message that said they would halt the naval battles.

    Commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in meeting with Iranian President Pezeshkian:

    🔹 In the Red Sea and the Mediterranean, they targeted 14 of our ships to prevent us from exporting our oil. The Zionist regime carried out this action in a very mysterious and ambiguous manner, and we managed to target 12 of their ships severely. After we targeted the fifth ship, they raised their hands and said they would stop the naval battles.

    🔹 We were in a severe crisis; General Soleimani had been assassinated, a Ukrainian plane had crashed in Tehran, COVID-19 was rampant, and economic sanctions were being imposed at their maximum level, all while they tried to isolate us completely.

    🔹 As the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, we needed to carry out a deterrent operation and create a barrier. In naval battles, we secured shipping lines, broke the sanctions in practice, managed the COVID-19 situation, developed vaccines, and made all resources available for treatment.

    🔹 None of the 380 major national projects currently underway have slowed down; we did not allow sanctions to hinder the country's development.

    🔹 Externally, we were also containing the phenomenon of Takfirism (ISIS) from outside of our country; if terrorism had spread further, Iran would have been its central target. We succeeded in closing off all the routes that the enemy had opened. Today, the safest shipping lanes belong to vessels flying the Iranian flag.

    Major General Hossein Salami, Commander of the IRGC:

    🔹 "14 of our ships were attacked to prevent our oil exports. Initially, we did not realize who was behind these actions because they were carried out very covertly. Eventually, we understood that the Zionist regime was responsible. 12 of their ships were destroyed, and when we hit the 5th ship, they raised their hands in surrender and said they would stop the naval battles."

    🔹 "The British seized our ship in Gibraltar, and in response, we captured the Stena Impero, which led to their surrender. We also took two of their ships while they seized two of ours in greece, but ultimately, they capitulated."

    🔹 "When two of our oil tankers were en route to Venezuela, the Americans threatened to seize them. I, along with General Tangsiri, simulated the operation to capture an American oil tanker and announced it over the radio. When the Americans saw this, our tankers safely reached their destination."

    🇮🇷/🇮🇱 IRGC Commander-in-Chief, Hossein Salami, in tonight's speech:

    – The Zionists should not think that they can hit us and run away, they will definitely get hit and cannot escape.

    – The nightmare of anticipating Iran's decisive response shakes the Zionists day and night.

    – The Zionists will experience the bitter taste of revenge for their evil actions and will see when, where and how.

    – Iran's response will be in a different way than before, and soon you will see the mystery unfold.

    Iranians gathered outside the HQs of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran, north Tehran, to protest.

    Protesters demand explanation from Iranian officials: Why they didn’t retaliate after Haniyeh’s murder. The speaker is a woman.

    At this point I'm starting to believe that the next US president will sell the Ukraine to Russia if it means being able to go to town on Iran along with Israel without interference.

    Or if Russia doesn't buy it, then just dump the Ukraine anyway, as they will need the missiles for themselves.

    The Ukraine is Bidens conflict, and clearly the democrats all have schemes running there making them lots of money on the side. I doubt Trump is making any money there at all and therefore has no interests.

    I would say Lindsey Graham has told him about the wealth of the country in terms of Lithium and the black soil and rare earth minerals and even just coal and steel and that America would benefit because the country now owes them they can have it for free but also deny it to China and Russia.

    I don't think Trump cares either way with Russia but he does not like China commercially and ideologically he hates Iran... If he could figure a way to use Russia against those two countries he would but better minds have tried and Putin knows he will be used and then become the next target.

    Helping HATO in Afghanistan didn't gain them any favours when the west turned on them.

    Russia knows the US is the enemy... and I must say I am surprised Israel isn't sucking up to Russia more... sucking up to Kiev is no value to Israel other than being a good boy for the US... but Israel is the prize winning dog that can do as he pleases most of the time and could get away with agreements with Russia... like the ones they broke in Syria.

    The US will want to transfer ownership of the Ukraine conflict to the EU, and that is both parties... of course Trump will do it sooner rather than later, but that ship is sinking and buckets to bail the water are no longer any use.

    Trump is probably more likely to start a war with Iran than Biden and his camp... I get the feeling Trump is more pro Israeli than the democrats.

    Well the US has openly lied to Iran and made promises that have been openly broken which renders the US role in any negotiations useless... but we have always known that...

    I would say taking out the Israeli government would not be very useful for Iran, because any replacements wont be any better... just more of the same... so perhaps attacks on their electrical grid and infrastructure might teach them some manners?

    The accuracy of the Iranian missiles makes even conventional warheads effective against a range of targets... the IAEA ignores Ukrainian attacks on Russian nuclear power stations... I wonder if they will notice Iranian missiles hitting nuclear targets in Israel?

    🛑|🇮🇷 BREAKING: Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, will lead Tehran Friday prayers on October 04.

    If you know, you know!

    Fotros Resistance (AryJeay), [1/10/2024 08:02]
    — If I’m not mistaken, the last time Ayatollah Khamenei led Tehran’s friday prayers was in 2020 when the US assassinated martyr Qassem Soleimani and vowed for revenge.

    The 2020 friday prayers even came after 8 years.

    — Also, for those who wonder: Ayatollah Khamenei isn’t afraid of anyone. He survived an assassination and continued his speech shortly after!!

    He was the president at that time, not the leader. Imam Khomeini was the leader.

    That’s why one of his hands is dysfunctional.

    The US is desperately trying to convince Iran not to strike, or to at least keep it limited. They're worried that the Israeli response won't be restrained; this is exactly what Netanyahu has been looking for.

    At the same time, Putin wants to urgently speak to Netanyahu later today. He will probably try to convince Israel not to respond. If Israel responds, Iran will too, and things will escalate.

    The US is REALLY not happy right now. They don't want an Iranian-Israeli conflict, even if limited, especially not before the elections.

    🇮🇱l🇮🇷 A western source with knowledge claims that unlike the April attack, this time Iran is expected to attack Israel only with ballistic missiles that reach Israel within 12 minutes and not with drones or cruise missiles that allow for much longer preparation time for defense and interception - Axios

    This may severely diminish the US-led coalitions ability to help Israel as most of their help in April was to shoot down drones and cruise missiles using jets.

    Only a few ballistic missiles were shot down by US Patriot battery in Iraq and Aegis-equipped ships in the Mediterranean, with Israel’s Arrow-2/3 air defences handing the vast majority.

    Heavy stress may be placed on Israel’s Arrow-2 and Arrow-3 air defences as a result. - Elint on X
