Isreal is getting pounded into dust. The entity is blacking out media and pretending to be almost unharmed. The entity always lies. We're in a stage of information warfare and people are being arrested for "unlawful recording" in TA. They're almost out of AD systems. Arrows are almost depeted, and AD is a few days from collapse at this rate. The new hypersonics Iran is using are nearly impossible to intercept in the last stage. Israel has lost the Haifa refinery/depot/power plant, which provided 60% of fuel to the occupied territories and will take months to repair. That facility also provided fuel for their F35s, which the US is now supposedly having to refuel.
Iran is much bigger and can easily outlast this in the long term so long as the US stays out.
Iran should have taken out Israeli air bases and the US is involved, as well as the UK and Germany providing support. But if Israel has no fighter jets or bombers then that support is pointless.
I hope you are right and I'm just being pessimistic. Israel did manage to take out Hezbollah and Assad government in Syria, but so far neither it nor the US were capable of taking out Ansarallah. I know the longer it goes on, the less likely Israel is to win, and if it goes on for 20 years we know the US will leave a loser just like in Vietnam and Afghanistan. My main worry is in the short term.
The regional and international alliance against US involvement is hitting critical mass. I honestly think Trump is pissing himself here. Russia has strongly reiterated that it would an incredibly bad mistake to get involved. Pakistan has nukes and is given strong indication of some level of involvement. Putin and Ayatollah al-Sistani just said don't even think about touching Khamenei. Iraqi resistance will push out US forces. Even the Saudis and Jordanianas are violently against us involvement. China has made some of the strongest denoucements I've seen since Mao. Situation is a guaranteed world war.
I cant predict anything, but Amerikkka is out of talk at this point and Trump doesn't want to risk triggering what could be the biggest disaster in living memory. If I were him, I'd be on the golf course. Who actually wants this bullshit at 79.
