Oh great strikes on Iran are under way.
-
I'll be interested to see what's still standing on US bases in the next two days.
The last time Israel attacked Iran it cost around $1 billion dollars to defend Israel from Iran's $80M missile response.
I think we might be watching a couple BILLION in US assets going up in smoke tonight.
The radar systems in Bahrain alone, which Iran likely damaged/destroyed, are worth $1B. The US likely fired nearly $1B of missile interceptors as well over night.

Hotel's that were hit at the start of the night (see earlier post below) are getting hit AGAIN in the middle of the night now.
As far as I can see Iran is hitting many key military and economic targets repeatedly tonight.
These strikes seem designed to underscore the fact that the US air defense is NOT stopping Iran. Nothing is safe now.
This is a game the US & Israel never should have started.

There's rumours circulating that Trump was gifted the Fairmont Palm Hotel which has been repeatedly hit.
But that's incorrect, Trump was gifted a different property (also nearby).
You know, the fact we have to clarify WHICH bribe hotel our shithead president was gifted at a time like this really should be all anyone needs to understand how evil the US is right now.

Jebel Ali Port, which is immediately next to Palm Jameria where the hotels were hit, also suffered significant damage due to drones.
The Jebel Ali Port is a major port call for US Navy vessels and it appears to have suffered significant damage at some of the births.

A lot of these videos tonight appear to becoming directly from US service members. The OSINT community is really kinda amazed, America the TikTok troops at the moment.
This signals to me that things are getting more real than anyone, or at least any average grunt expected.
Throughout the last 40years working at one of these logistical bases was a fairly safe job for US service members compared to vets who found themselves wandering around Iraq & Afghanistan on foot and convoy.

Bahrain and US 5th fleet HQ getting more missiles around an hour ago. The locals continue to cheer each and every air defense failure.
-
What's that buzzing?
Earlier in the thread I was having trouble telling the new Bahrain 5th fleet strikes from the earlier ones.
But now its very easy... you see the videos now have the buildings from earlier ALREADY in flames.
Several new angles show these follow on attacks clearly.
Per usual, the locals are pretty stoked to see the US military running for cover.

We still don't know whether Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is alive or dead.
Trump and Israel of course claim he is dead.
Iran has insisted that he's alive.

Professor Dr. Foad Izadi, who works at the University of Tehran, was interviewed by multiple journalists and says regime is an unrealistic goal for the Americans to pursue.
In Dr. Izadi's analysis he says the way that America struck the country AFTER Iran engaged in good faith negotiations sends a message to the next generation of Iranian leaders. He says it doesn't matter what the next leader's politics are, this gurantees Iran will remain anti-American.

DOD consultants basically concluding the same thing I have throughout this thread:
1. Iran IS successfully pealing back the most long range US & Israeli airdefence layers
2. Iran likely plans the deploy even larger missile drone swarm after fully disabling/depleting US air defense.
3. The US has not done nearly enough damage thus for to decapitate Iran
And finally this leaves a big question mark about the current US position, "is this all just a 'shaping; operation?"
