US and Iran conflict thread. ( merged threads)

[TEOTWAWKI inc.]

Still there according to the last reports I heard

Iran claims it was moved before the US strikes. So, they are either lying about that and we shouldn't trust them, or they are telling the truth and we still can't trust them?

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

I was not aware that they flew out of Missouri, or anywhere in the cont. USA. I assumed they were based on the other side of the planet. Amazing.

Little known fact there's a lot of sleep science with B2 pilots. They have flown the longest missions with a 2 person crew and follow some weird awake/sleep patterns when on 40 hour missions because they want both pilots to be awake and alert for critical parts like refuelings, hostile territory, bomb runs etc. theres a little nook in the cockpit they can lay down in.

Who knows? I certainly don't.
In situations like these the truth is a very crooked line threaded betwixed the lies of all parties involved

Israel reported they tracked the trucks removing isotopes from the facilities and are aware of and have shared their current whereabouts.

If you sign up KNOWING FULL PHUCKING WELL, that this government starts wars to profit from it, by using YOU, as their pawn to kill others, YEAH, i`ll say it straight up in your face!

Fair enough, though it would buy you a busted nose. But I respect honesty and balls so I'd offer my hand to get you back up off your ass.

It's as well you don't say that to my face.

Christ! I leave for 5mins. Don’t make me stop this car !!!

No need for this. We're all sad that you know people that died in war. That's what war does sometimes, and every servicemember knows that when they sign up, especially during an active war(s). The overwhelming majority of us just happen to luck out, all the while happily collecting our tax-free government paychecks, 10% discounts at Lowe's and Applebee's, and apparently some of us wear the names of those in Valhalla like virtue badges to win internet clout. Just stop it.

Anyways, back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Folks What if this "cease fire is a ruse.... Sit back let a few months go by and things get lit up in this country by Iran ... Just throwing this out there. ... This cease fire seems pretty quick

We can see where the entrances are, but no way the facilities will be under them or even close. There must be tunnels there that lead to the facilities well out of the way. Chances are nothing major was damaged.

 

[TEOTWAWKI inc.]

Israel reported they tracked the trucks removing isotopes from the facilities and are aware of and have shared their current whereabouts.

So, is this possibly the reason the ceasefire doesn't start right away? Completing their final missions so we (Israel) can grab the uranium?

I just don't understand how they are too dangerous to have it that we had to bomb them, but we didn't get it and we don't have to do any more war stuff.

I think if Iran still has their uranium secured, a ceasefire makes the most sense for them. Especially if they truly want death to America. Now they can lick their wounds and re-arm.

I don't know where it is.

Iran definitely knows where it is.

China and Russia probably know where it is.

Israel and the US *might* know where it is.

Not advocating for WWIII, but if they couldn't be trusted with it last week, we did all this shit and still can't trust them with it.

Now what?

The "now what" is and was always in play.

Even if the isotopes were at the bomb sites, it is quite likely the sites essentially become a rubble mine and the isotopes could be reharvested and processed at some future point. The mission cost Iran time, and the more successful the strikes were ... the more time any Iranian weapons program is penalized. The best strategic case scenario is the bombs destroyed the equipment / infrastructure and like idiots the Iranians kept the isotopes easy for someone to come and confiscate it from them. Commercial / civilian uses only need 2% enrichment or so for viable large commercial reactors and high enrichment is only needed for military uses (weapons or small reactors for naval / portable applications).

Alpha emitting Yellow cake or pellets would be an ineffective dirty bomb.

Waste products would be more toxic and radioactive.

No Uber for you….LPC

Somebody knows where the poison is. All the people involved, somebody from within, always talks, secretly, when paid enough money.

So I bring up my three deceased comrades and you say, to my face, they had it coming. I ask you; what kind of man lets that slide? Not this man, I can tell you that much.

And the difference between the 2, one got rich doing nothing, and the other guy got the job done without getting rich.

 

[stokes]

Almost tempted to put on MSNBC to see what spin they put on this........ but I wont.

So I gave in and switched on MSNBC. The banner at the bottom of the screen said "Trump announces a cease fire". They were interviewing some authoress blathering about how Trumps bombing followed his pattern of violating the Constitution. I had to shut it off after about 2 mins.

A few months, more like a few hours. Woof.

I had it a feeling this “ceasefire” wasn’t solid.

 

[Podmonkey]

I really, really, really hope this cease-fire turns into a hostilities ended situation.
However the cease-fire in Ukraine didn't hold, the Israeli-Palestinian cease-fire didn't hold why would this one?
If annihilating Iran's nuclear facilities through a freakin' mountain is the extra inducement that is needed then I will be glad for that. I just hope it wasn't fuel on the fire. India and Pakistan too, the world is falling apart
