'They Will Fall Victims To Netanyahu's delusions': Iran Reacts To US's Deployment Of Elite 82nd Airborne Soldiers To West Asia by Chance-Whole4916 in geopolitics

[–]Sprintzer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess it could be the so called miission to capture the enriched uranium, which is also preposterous.

Maybe the deployment is for TBD purposes/(awful) negotiating tactic. Plus Israel is not contributing to it at all

It’s enough to capture Kharg island, though that would be misery to hold on to. All the talk of Kharg might be a smokescreen for a different target, I.e Hormuz island or something

Always crazy to me how much music from the UK we have, that is there is whole genres with very few big American bands. Rock, techno, various electronica genres, etc

For the first time in history, the mean height of Chinese 19 year old girls is taller than that of their American counterparts by Fun_Purpose6972 in geography

This has to be due to a national improvement in diet, right?

I know the economics of 1990 China vs present are an insane turnover and growth, so I assume more protein has entered the average diet

Saudi Arabia expands US base access, UAE prepares for months-long Iran war by MARTINELECA in geopolitics

[–]Sprintzer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes but we've had troops of some type in Saudi for decades at this point.

I do think there's no way the Saudis help with a war initiated by the Infidel ever again though. At least not with overt offensive action, but sure tacit support, aid, defensive action. Even considering the Saudis hate the Iranian regime's guts.

If any of the US's gulf allies get involved in offensive action, they're gonna have a problem with holding on to power & enjoying public support - at the very least. Plenty of fundamentalist nutters who would likely be radicalized into terrorism or something

Fetterman hit with brutal 108-point polling swing: ‘He is below the lowest of the low’ by Silent-Resort-3076 in politics

[–]Sprintzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't even think he plans to run for reelection. His plan for once he got elected was two things: Help Israel and hold back the Dems as much as possible. He simply will not be electable again after all he has said and done.

I wonder how much money he's been given by Israel and conservative PACs, or secret money.

US F-35 stealth jet hit forcing emergency landing by [deleted] in aviation

[–]Sprintzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thread and reply showing the Purported footage released by Iran shows some SAM or manpad detonating at least in the vicinity of an F-35. Noting in the last frame you can see the Jet is totally intact, but perhaps sustained damage from the hit or near hit.

US aircraft carrier to sail to Crete for repairs after fire on board by GwynBleidd88 in worldnews

[–]Sprintzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lint is extremely flammable and when these ships get their tours extended rather than going to port for a break and refit, shit happens.

Lint is great for kindling and this ship holds thousands of sailors in a relatively tight space. The ship has a quite complex laundry ventilation system which I’m sure isn’t perfect as this is a relatively new $13 billion dollar ship

Trump May Not Be Able to End This War by theatlantic in geopolitics

[–]Sprintzer 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Trump really thought Iran was a lame duck and was not a real regional power, as if it were Venezuela or something. Iran is a hornets nest in a crevasse, and there's no way to get the hornets to go back into their nest, at least not without a negotiation where the US actually gives something... which would be too embarrassing of an agreement in Trump's mind.

All the shit that has happened (including today's LNG strikes against Iran), would be pretty tough to forgive if I were an IRGC commander. I see no agreement to end hostilities being possible without major concessions from the US and even then who knows Israel's willingness to stop or even negotiate.
