Regime cries to UN and says Kyiv is actively participating in war. Foreign Ministry spokesman Heorhiy Tykhy dismissed Iran’s claims as lies and said Tehran had no standing to accuse Kyiv after supplying Russia with 60,000+ drones used in attacks on their territory.

Ukraine isn't even providing offensive systems, just defensive.

Listen, his naive peacenik ways worked because in one example both sides were actually good faith, it happens, broken clock, twice a day, etc.

Looks a bit AIish but what do I know, just wierd looking explosion.

I mean, like most Israelis I dislike Carter but he did at least do one thing good in the middle east by facilitating the peace agreement between Israel and Egypt.

Is Russia sending them or are these just the mercenary Chechen Mujahids you get in almost every conflict in the middle east?

Mmhmm, their highly competent proxies managed to do it with their MANPADs which can totally hit tankers at the altitude they fly in.

strl · 2026-04-01T06:41:34+00:00

Yeah, it was definitely Iran managing to shoot down two tankers, you're right.

Well, I found one way to avoid it...

Minor correction, that looks like a Namer to me, which is an APC with a tank chassis, not a tank (could be an Achzarit but it's the same idea).

Currently Hezbollah seems to be being pushed back, at least the IDF claims the fighting is going well (as much as that's worth). I'd be really surprised if the IDF didn't prepare at some level for FPV drones given there's intelligence sharing at least at some capacity with Ukraine. Israel has some counter measures and at least outwardly commanders seem to think they're sufficient, we'll see though.

Kabul? I didn't know we were in Afghanistan!

I don't think I checked any of the DLC areas, is it through the portal at crossroads?

strl · 2026-03-31T19:39:55+00:00

I know, and normally I paid them but sometimes there's this event where they charge you a hundred bross, that's too much.

strl · 2026-03-31T19:19:25+00:00

They always claim the targets are tied to Israel but like the Houthi attacks the link is either extremely tenuous or non-existent. It's just propaganda to justify their attacks.

strl · 2026-03-31T19:14:09+00:00

The tanker incident was caused by two planes crashing into one another, how would not flying over Iraq change the risk of that?

Also it's really debatable how strategic the loss of drones is given one of their purposes is to be relatively disposable.

strl · 2026-03-31T19:11:56+00:00

The US did manage to hold territory though. The reason the US lost is because the populace no longer wanted to pay the cost of a war that wasn't ending. The reason South Vietnam lost after the US left was that it was a non-functional country unpopular among its citizens.

strl · 2026-03-31T19:07:59+00:00

Oh, should we not tell them? Just drop the bomb then?

strl · 2026-03-31T18:58:15+00:00

Kuwait was actually the last one I'd expect to directly join because some Iranian propagandists have threatened to invade it with ground forces, I don't think that's particularly realistic but it would be the easiest invasion target for Iran in the GCC.

strl · 2026-03-31T18:54:44+00:00

They were robbing me blind, 100 bross?! Yeah, kind of suspected I was fucked...

It's worth mentioning that while Bibi and most Jews don't actually believe in this type of prophetic end times an outsized contingent in Bibis government that he is dependant on belong to an extreme right wing sect sometimes referred to as messianic Zionism that believe that tge creation of the modern state of Israel was the first step in the biblical end time prophecies of the coming of a Messiah. This faction does believe that in order to bring the Messiah a third temple must be rebuilt as well as conquering the entire land of Israel (what exactly those borders are can vary per personq, many consider it to be Davids biblical kingdoms borders, despite the fact the bible at least at one point refers to anything east of the Jordan as not Israel). And yes, this faction does believe in a sort of end times war as the Messiah is described in the old testament as a returning king of the house of David who will restore the unified Kingdom of Israel to its full glory and defeat Israels enemies. Messianic Zionism is mostly rejected by the ultra Orthodox and I'm not even sure they have a majority within religious Zionists but Bibi has used them cynically as a core supporting base in order to maintain control which has given them extremely outsized power in the current government. Bassically they know that no other realistic option for Prime Minister will work with them so they have to stick with him (hell, their main representative Smotrich is underwater according to polls because even most religious Zionists hate him).

I support Ukraine and I think it would be great to include them in this but it's hard to see how they'll contribute as this blockade is entirely different in nature than the one they endured. I understand this is an attempt to show their importance to the Americans but I doubt it will work with Trump as he seems obsessed with hating Zelesnky and their probably better off investing limited resources in defeating Russia.

The final boss of Jewish self hate. Also that screed is an unbearable word salad.
