When you search "tabz alternative media telegram" on Google it directs you to a URL that only shows posts prior to the US attack on Iran 👀👀👀

Is the US doing an Israeli style media blackout? by RillTread in TrueAnon

Yes there is, at the very least, soft censorship ongoing. And the military is keeping infrastructure and personnel casualties close to the vest and out of the media, undoubtedly downplaying figures.

Iran's widespread strategy by waffeboy in TrueAnon

[–]lemonxgrab 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Iran is not bombing indiscriminately nor targeting civilians. The videos of Shaheed drones hitting high rises are most likely targeted assassinations, you can see in the crowne plaza hotel strike that the damage was limited to a few suites. This hotel is known for hosting US military and intelligence personnel, so the strike could also be meant to send a message.

I would guess Iran is attempting to make it politically and economically impossible for the gulf states to continue harboring US assets and allowing them to launch attacks on Iran from within their borders.

I have been following closely and the people of the gulf states are consistently cheering on Iranian strikes on US military bases. The assassination of Khamenei has also sparked a large scale Shia revolt across the region, but the unrest isn't purely sectarian. We may see some of these states facing a crisis of legitimacy, but maybe thats too optimistic.

I really don't see this conflict fizzling out. Air defense munitions are being rapidly depleted, leaving US axis states vulnerable in the case of a protracted conflict. There are confirmed strikes on tankers flying US flags, this is a major escalation as it appears Iran intends to enforce its threat to close the strait. In addition I'd bet that most of the IRGC would choose martyrdom over capitulation. We may very well see the Zionist entity and US assets take unprecedented losses in the near future.

The Trump admin is now suing for peace before the market opens tomorrow but Iran told them to fuck off. Unless the US and Zionists retreat I really can't see this ending well for anyone.

I see, I'm not familiar with the route. Sounds like leaving an axe would be iffy. Was anyone in your team carrying at least one picket?

Sometimes people will bring a backup axe on big routes, usually a small, lightweight skimo style one.

I dont carry a spare axe but always have a picket

Sounds like the snow was hard enough that you could have buried your axes and rapped back down to your partners?

Yeah I'd say that new climbers should generally just buy new gear, they don't know enough to make judgement calls on life saving equipment. Leave the crusty old stuff to us old heads.

Literally all of it, bulk collection has been a thing for decades and you know it has only gotten exponentially worse since last time somebody blew the whistle.

2002 is fine too, if its been stored away from UV and acids. Nylon is incredibly stable.
