***Iran v Israel War official thread***

This is a bit like the movie Groundhog Day. IF Iran does something directly at Israel, I would expect it to be pretty tepid. Israel has a minimum of 80 nukes and some think maybe even several 100 of them. If any nutbag would use them, it would be Bibi. Iran I think knows this.
 
I'm here for it bruh. Had a conference all week and now I'm just going through missed emails with the masters in the background. Going to take my step dad turkey hunting this afternoon.



What's realistic here? They launch a few drones so they can say they did something without officially pissing us off? Full Monty?
I think it’s a certainty the proxies lob drones and bottle rockets in the north. It’ll be Israel’s response that sets the tone. I don’t think Iran has the balls knowing America is watching.

The problem here is that many of us are trying to apply Western thought and rational responses to a completely different culture, religious idiology, and ethnic (Shia v Sunni and a very volatile petroleum market and it just goes off rail on our perspective of what is rational. Look at our own culture right now.

So they aren't looking to stay out of conflict to make sure they don't hurt the flow of toaster strudels?
 
He’s on the intel committee. I don’t like Rubio but I trust him on this stuff.
The dude has been hankering for war with Iran for over a decade.

It’s not that I don’t think Iran will retaliate for Israel’s attack.

The warnings have been coming out since.

Washington: The US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has warned Israel that Iran could launch a major military operation within 48 hours in retaliation for an apparent Israeli airstrike that destroyed an Iranian consulate in Syria



Eventually one of them will be correct.

The response is going to be key to how this plays out.

Speaking hypotheticals....if Israel nuked Iran would Russia (or someone else) nuke Israel?

I'm not convinced Russia does pull that trigger for Iran. Likewise, if Israel gets nuked I'm not at all convinced US pulls that trigger either.

I think there is zero chance that Russia nukes Israel in response to Israel nuking Iran.

I think Israel would only nuke Iran in response to getting nuked themselves.
