Current International Headlines: War on Iran

[Ladios]

Non-US media such as news sites in China and Spain are reporting that the number of US service members killed are actually much higher than the 6 admitted to by the DOJ, with apparently 560 casualties being claimed across the multiple missile strikes to US bases in the region.

You do realize we fighting a jew war because of Epstein right

No one wants to die for Israel.

Such a shame Americans are dying for this crap.

[Masterlegodude]

His inner Riddler is starting to show

[Ladios]

The US, having assassinated the supreme leader of Iran, Ayatollah Khameni, have sanctioned Iran's replacement, Ayatollah Khameni, the son of the guy they just killed. Supposedly to put an end to the conflict.

Israel has vowed to target whoever Iran chose as a successor though.

The US was also hoping to turn this into another Venezuela type overthrow of the government and claim all of Iran's oil supplies.
Israel has seemingly missed this memo as well and has started destroying oil infrastructure across Iran, much to the US's distress.

[Masterlegodude]

We're never recovering from this, are we?

Iran's certainly not recovering for a very very long time, Annoying Orange has completely obliterated the US' reputation, both outside and inside the country itself, and i mean, it was never that high, but it's definitely gotta be at an all time low now, and he has made deals and partnerships with all the wrong people that we'll be stuck with for the foreseeable future

This is not a game, none of this can be undone so easily, so many innocent lives have been ruined if not completely lost, and there's much more to follow from the looks of it

[King Tøny]

Iran war is distraction bait.

I am not dying for Israel.

Dealing with a lot of IRL stuff so havent been by longer than the time it takes to stuffpost in one of tony's threads but to generally sum up things

Its not going great for US or Israel. Northern Israel particularly has been recieving lots of cluster munitions that can bypass the iron dome. Israel in response continued its nonstop bombing of Lebanon and Iran, and has launched a ground invasion of Lebanon with intentions of securing more territory by the time this is over.

There was a brief hubub about Netanyahu supposedly having been killed and videos of him being AI generated, but the event at the coffee shop, as bizzarely staged as it was, had a lot of corroborating evidence that he actually took the time to make that weirdass video.

US continues to be dumbforgets, striking vital water and power supplies in Iran, which launches their own attacks against US's allies' water supplies in the area. The US also nearly destroyed one of the largest oil fields in the world, and Iran in return damaged important refineries as well.

Oh and they also shot and damaged one of our Trillion Dollar F35 super stealth fighters that are not supposed to be able to be hit. Their targeting systems didnt even raise an alarm on the aircraft. Iran also severely damaged multiple bombers stationed in the region and mysterious drones have been seen above military installations in Lousisana where our B52 and nuclear weapons are stationed.

US is of course underreporting our own casualties and Annoying Orange's whitehouse is threatening to revoke the media liscences of any company that reports how bad we are doing.

The US is also less than a week away from putting boots on the ground in Iran, preparing the marines and airborne for a ground invasion. They've also raised the maximum draftable age of adults from 34 to 43.

Annoying Orange for his part continues to play the fool, begging Nato and EU forces to join to no avail and recently claimed that Iran was about to sign a ceasefire, which Iran immediately debunked.

Oh and we've begun military operations in ecuador as well because of course fighting in one foreign conflict isn't enough for the "no-new-wars-president"

[Ladios]

US still underreporting the death tolls of our troops (there's speculation as to why Annoying Orange fired Bondi on a thursday instead of friday which is usually when he does is big headline grabbing bs) but yeah US fighter jets are now being successfully downed by Iran despite Annoying Orange saying we've already eliminated their missile launching platforms and ships and all that.

Oil is already reaching $150 a barrel, the worst since the US's invasion of Iraq two decades ago, which was right before the "great recession". Strange that this sorta thing always happens under Republicans.

[King Tøny]

If Iran had that they would have leaked it already.
Yeah American evangelicalism is an apocalyptic death cult.

you claim I don't exist but quote me, lol ok.

[Ladios]

Annoying Orange has announced that Israel is forbidden from bombing Lebanon.
Which like. Israel has in the last month and a half, destroyed entire towns so thoroughly that Apple's maps removed them from the regional map, and has claimed that they will control the entire region between the Eurphrates river and their border with Egypt. (against insternational law cause there are like multiple countries in the area with their own people and autonomous governments)

Also, was kinda busy so never got to mention that the US decided to blockade Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, but now
Iran has declared the Strait open for shipping. The US has not yet said that they will remove their own blockade yet though.
