This could be the usual macho war talk, but I believe it because the regime in power does not care about human lives. They can survive in the face of huge numbers of civilian and military casualties because of their tight control over their people. That is not the case in other countries, especially the US. |

Yep two patriot missiles. They always fire two and they explode in front of in coming missiles. Approximately 11,000 Patriot missiles have been manufactured in total. Of that 40% are in active use and the others were aged out. So 4,400 roughly are available but they fire two missiles at a time. 800 were fired in the first 3 days in June 2025. 150 THAAD were fire also in June. 25% of the total. The Iranian have launched over 2,500 ballistic missiles. Do the math. |
MAGAs love endless wars in the middle east that put our country into trillions in debt |
When oil reached $90 saw a report saying it would cost the US consumer $200 billion in increase gas cost. |
Say what you want. But many of these leaders are willing to die for the cause. Whether you or I agree with the cause is irrelevant. The Ayatollah martyred himself for his vision of Iran and its people. You can't export your vision as a hegemon onto nations that have been historically oppressed due to imperialism and geopolitics. I'm pretty sure those Iranian leaders love their country more than Trump acolytes love America. |
Looks like Brics took down the tweet, can't let israel look bvad |
It's also something like a 10:1 ratio to even try to intercept one, with a less than 50% success rate lately per salvo. |
Good thing the internet last forever |
Yes the Iranian have used up their cheap out of date missiles and drones. Now they are using their better ballistic missiles and drones. From what the excerpts are saying the ballistic missiles accuracy has greatly improved, multiple heads, decoys, terminal phase maneuverability, speeds excessive Mach 4, etc. The few interceptors available are failing. Israel is getting close to using a nuclear weapon. Thought China, Russia and North Korea will respond in kind. |
| Lets pay the reparations and pack up the bases. There is no political risk for Trump. Republicans and maga will still rally around him. |
Or they can kick the US out and become neutral. Iran is being very selective. |
