I thought this was a non aggression pact with nothing in it whatsoever about remove US presence or am I missing something

“Basing locations. Geographical limitations are a reality. If you cannot launch attacks from close by your options will be much more limited”

Last I checked they have bases etc in UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Oman, Jordan, Syria, then the scourge of the earth slightly further away.

Was it part of the agreement that the US were leaving Saudi? Or am I missing something?

Does that actually make a difference when they’re stationed in every other country in every direction? Even Iraq?

If there’s background agreements that the US will remove their presence in Saudi then they’ve actually achieved something. Likewise if this is a step closer to ending the war they’ve achieved something. If the US and 'israel" go back to blasting them with everything they’ve got then I’m not convinced this helps in any way.

Yes, this arguably takes a ripe asset rich target away from Iran though. Obviously hitting them for damages sake isn’t good behaviour, but they’ve already made their bed when they let US use their country as a military base to blow up Iran. Just cause they fucked up and got their shit rocked doesn’t mean Iran gains anything from this. What can Saudi do or provide that US and Israel don’t already have in spades?

Yes, still very much losing.

My uninformed analysis of the whole debacle at this stage is that America pretended to be conducting a humanitarian movement to free stuck ships in the strait. Really they escorted out two US flagged ships in a risky heist, Came under fire, And lost a big part of the only oil field in the UAE that avoided Hormuz.

US tested Irans resolve and defense methods and freed a couple ships. Iran showed them what they use to deter military intervention. Missiles/fast boats/ shore munitions etc.

Looks like Iran showed they still have power to deter naval movements and significant escalation capabilities, as this was walked back in record time. Even for Trump. They’re just throwing shit at a wall to see what sticks at this point.

Whatever agreement the US eventually sign will be unacceptable to them. That’s because they’re still in the"find out" stage of their genocidal fucking around, and somehow are yet to realize they’ve lost the war, along with most of their allies and soft power.

Truly a sad thing.

Yet another opportunity to be fucking embarrassed in front of the world.

Looks like the wars back on. Iran for once taking the initiative rather then waiting to get pummeled first. I wonder what prompted this. Presumably the US fucking around with the Navy earlier.

I hate to see this. It’s easy to say from over here where I’m safe but the Lebanese shouldn’t allow this. They’ll be Palestine in a decade or two if they don’t build up deterrence.

They would have pulled everyone out first presumably. However I’m seeing some people say on telegram this might be old footage from Palestine

Assuming this is accurate this is really interesting information. I was seeing articles this morning in UK press about how doomed china were. Seems as usual they’ve used some of their wealth to future proof and insulate from shock. Whilst the west in a neverending pursuit of profit have fuck all put aside.

And dear god India.

If there’s one thing I hate about having my eyes opened to how untrustworthy anything in western media is, it’s that I can no longer read shit like this and dismiss it as a conspiracy theory.

Look at the Kurds. Took them being used and cast aside about twenty times before they finally got the hint. The west (especially the US) and Israel are never to be allied with. They’re evil deceitful hideous beasts who only show allegiance to wealth.

From what I understand the Iranian blockade took ship traffic from 180-200 ships a day to somewhere around 10. This will take it from 10 to 0. I don’t really see this being a massive disadvantage for Iran (not being rampant capitalists the money is nice but they’re pretty self sufficient and I imagine Russia and China will dip their hands in their pockets to help). It will keep up the international pressure on USA due to rising oil prices and loss in supply and lack of fertiliser shipments etc. so personally I’m not convinced this is a smart play in the slightest. Think it makes Trump look like a war mongering dumbass even more and doesn’t really alter Iran’s strategy or strengths.

That’s more like it. Israel have a history of taking ceasefires as an opportunity to kill even more civilians. It’s about time they stopped getting away with it. Hit these fuckers with everything you can.

Reblock the strait immediately. Blast an Israeli or US tanker immediately. Make it clear this is for what Israel is doing in Lebanon.

They need to do this immediately. Otherwise they’ve been played again. Like all the other times.

I’m seeing reports that Netanyahu is refusing to acknowledge the ceasefire with regard to Lebanon so Iran’s resolve may be tested here. Probably straight back to firing missiles at Tel Aviv and blocking the strait. At least I hope so.

Still it’s hard to emphasise how big a loss it is if reports are correct and US managed to get a pilot out of Iran. Capturing a US soldier alive would be the easiest and quickest way for Iran to end this war. If the other is alive and gets captured he can be traded for peace. I’m convinced of this. It would be such a headache for trump.

Either way, what a day for Iran. Another day proving they can take the worlds richest and most powerful military and 7 of their lapdogs on alone.

Apologies I wasn’t saying I thought it wasn’t real now. Just that at first I wasn’t convinced Iran would immediately manage to drone strike the “anti drone strike crack squad” within a day or two of them arriving 😅. I’ve definitely seen enough Ukraine posts grieving his loss to believe it now. Iran once again proven to be telling the truth.
