⭕🤔 I find it very telling that, in the past two days, the Iranians are celebrating as though their national football team just won the World Cup, whereas the Israelis are, almost without exception, an ashen-faced, shell-shocked people.There has been a profound sea-change.
🔻 Mark: Yes, it is a paradigm shift. A country dared to defend itself against Israel with great effect and Israel’s myth of invulnerability is over.
🔻 Mike Mensa: Israelis have found out the limits of their power with the current administration, and the strength of the Iranian state and missile force, which will only learn from this episode.
🔻 A.J. Smuskiewicz: Iran has achieved this great victory: It has proven to the rest of the Muslim and Arab world that it is possible to fight back against the Israeli Zionist entity and to cause it serious internal harm! Thus, this Iranian victory will have long major positive regional consequences.
🔻 Emmanuel Consoli: Le sentiment de toute puissance a été brisé.
Les suprémacistes génocidaires sont tombés de leur piédestal.
🔻 Angelaiski1: Mash’allah 🙏
🔻 Spaceman 🇺🇲: The people know.The larger issue for Israel is now that kinetic action has failed to induce regime change, indirect approaches are likely to fail.
Iran galvanized it’s populations support around a common enemy they held off and were able to inflict damage directly to.
🔻 LostInBogota: Israel is a microcosm of America in many ways. While Israel was fighting every country they could a throw a stick at, their enemies quietly upgraded all their defensive weapons, waiting for the day they knew would come. And it did.America did he same thing, fighting for 20+ years on useless wars, while our arch adversaries quietly upgraded and invested massively in new and much more advanced weapons systems – Russia, China, Iran, NK…
This is the true cost of never-ending wars. They distract from strategic interests. They blind us to the true threats.
We will never recover. And neither will Israel. 20 years is a long time for military technology. We’ve both lost our edge and our unrivaled superiority.
And despite what the ignorant morons say – the same idiots that thought Israel/US would clobber Iran, while I was issuing stark warnings that this time was different – America is no longer the undisputed king of the hill.
Ignorance and delusional debate might be fun for bar-drinking banter, but it’s deadly in actual war.

🔻 Sam🇸🇪: These are premature celebrations Will, instead of preparing the country for a long war, they are encouraging people to celebrate in the streets. To me it seems the Iranians still haven’t gotten the memo.
This is just a pause.
🔻 WS: This remains as true now as it was on June 13th:
links earlier, ‼️ Israel Cannot Win a War of Attrition Against Iran24 hours ago, the Israelis were boldly talking about a two-week operation to denuclearize, disarm, and regime-change Iran.
I don’t believe Israel can sustain high-intensity conflict against Iran for even a week.”
🔻 Sam🇸🇪: There can be only one hegemon in the region, and it seems to me that’s what we’re playing for here.
🔻 WS: The US has lost hegemony in the Levant and Persian Gulf regions. And it won’t be coming back.
📜 All for One and One for All
🔻 Sam🇸🇪: This put a smile on my face, you already have an answer in place don’t you. You may be right, but my point is that they won’t let it go without a fight. History shows us the bloodiest wars occur when hegemons are replaced, the English, the Spanish, the Dutch, the list goes on.
🔻 WS: Non sequitur. My essay assumes an existential fight for the perpetuation of empire.My argument is that the US and its motley collection of vassal states are unable to defeat the combined power of the alliance now arrayed against them — an alliance explicitly fighting hegemony.
🔻 Rudolf Ruf: Just “Mullah-Regime” (standard #German “high-brow” media terminology) #Iran #propaganda of course 😉
🔻 WS: No. There is a discernible difference. It’s probably transitory. The various Iranian factions are notoriously mercurial. But the withering empire has brought them together.The Iranians are currently in the ascendant, and, although wounded, they know they won this battle.
🔻 Rudolf Ruf: Thank you for reading and replying! Not sure if I was able to convey the irony. I absolutely agree(d) with you, just making fun of the German mainstream media’s Orwellian terminology assuming that the masses are as braindead as I’m afraid they are.
⭕ unknown cont. thread:
🔻 WS: Nonsense. The Israelis got the crap kicked out them. The only thing they were on the “verge” of was complete exhaustion of their missile defense system.The military dynamics of the region have been permanently altered.
🔻 Ruby Roy: Will – you are responding to someone who calls Modi a Priest King – LOL!
[that is still less offensive than “Daddy god-Emperor”!]
🔻 Benjamin Schoendorff🪁: Indian “analysts” are mostly proving even more delusional than those from the imperial core.
🔻 WS: #TheImaginaryWar
🔻 ShortSale: Israel is being exposed and decommissioned. They are going to be completely irrelevant soon
⭕ unknown cont. thread:
🔻 WS: There is near-zero credible evidence that Israeli jets EVER overflew Iranian airspace.The Israelis launched stand-off missiles from Iraq, and some from the southern Caspian Sea. Otherwise it was drone strikes — and Iran shot down several Hermes drones.
🔻 priyadarshi: B2s were led by f35 and f16s
🔻 WS: There is zero credible evidence that ANY aircraft — Israeli or American — have overflown Iranian airspace.There is zero credible evidence GBU-57s were dropped on Iran.
Stand-off ALBMs, ALCMs, SLCMs, and drones only.
🔻 Rummana Daoud: The media are definitely in on the lies of Western dominance on the battlefield. Coupled with Israeli censorship of the damage they attained it really feels like nothing is believable.

Also, major plot twist: turns out they singlehandedly eliminated nuclear weapons in Iran… almost. Just barely missed it by that much.
Meanwhile, Trump wants Israel to cancel Bibi’s corruption trial because of cigars and a Bugs Bunny doll. Not kidding.
This reads like someone let ChatGPT binge Fox News, mix it with a fever dream, and hit “post.”
Also, shoutout to the part where Trump claims he could’ve led Israel better than Netanyahu. Nothing says “humble statesman” like “no one could’ve done this but ME.”

People can use AI as a effective tool only if they themselves are capable of critical thinking.

🔻 Armchair Warlord: Now that the ceasefire seems to have solidified, my thoughts on the Twelve-Day War between Israel and Iran.As an initial matter, no armistice that leaves Iran with a direct path to nuclear arms by Christmas can be considered a victory for Israel. And that’s where we are⬇️
Let’s run through this.
1. First and foremost, this war was an act of entirely unprovoked aggression by Israel, assisted – at least according to Trump, who may or may not be telling the truth about the matter – by American perfidy in conducting bad-faith negotiations with the Iranians designed only to increase their vulnerability to attack. This isn’t even a matter of controversy, the Israelis haven’t even tried to claim they had a casus belli and Trump’s said on the record that he coordinated with them. This action by the Trump Administration dishonored the United States of America.
2. This was Israel’s “big show” against Iran. Its results did not meet the effort expended. The most effective weapon the Israelis had wasn’t their vaunted Air Force but instead an elaborately constructed attack network inside Iran courtesy of Mossad – an attack network that is now gone and which likely cannot be reconstructed. To use a hacking analogy, Israel burned all of their “zero-day” exploits in Iran in the last two weeks. Infrastructure can be repaired, weaponry can be replaced, but they’re not going to be able to reconstruct this attack network.
3. For all of Israel’s talk of taking down Iran’s air defense system, the war was almost entirely fought with standoff weapons on both sides. The Israelis flew drones into Iran – and lost a lot of them. They do not appear to have risked their manned aircraft flying “downtown” except in marginal cases. Reports of Israeli aircraft operating with impunity deep in Iran appear to have been misidentification of Iranian Air Force planes at best and propaganda at worst.
4. Both sides’ stockpile of standoff munitions appears to have been relatively limited – even with the US likely backstopping Israel with cruise missiles late in the war. This explains the rather limited tempo of strikes on both sides after the first few days far better than claims the Israelis had somehow “suppressed” Iran’s missile forces – claims the Israelis “substantiated” with dozens of videos of the same drone strike.
4.a.This also, by the way, explains why Hezbollah seems to have had so many fewer rockets available during Israel’s abortive incursion into Lebanon last year than had generally been believed. In an ironic twist and contrary to (consistently wrong about everything!) brOSINT reporting, it seems that it’s the Russians with the bottomless doom stockpile of missiles and the Iranians had relatively few on hand.
5. Iran demonstrated a consistent capability to pierce Israeli missile defenses and damage or destroy Israeli infrastructure and combat systems – several IDF air defense missile batteries were in fact struck and destroyed on video in this war. While the reverse is obviously true, given the respective sizes of the combatants Israel would have had to be destroying Iranian critical infrastructure at a rate of approximately ten times what they themselves were suffering just to break even. This did not happen. In fact Iranian “white” civil-use nuclear sites – tertiary targets, militarily speaking – absorbed much of the IAF’s wrath.
6. Tying into my point above, there’s little indication that even Iranian “nuclear gray sites” such as Fordow or the Natanz bunker were meaningfully damaged in the war. The damage that can be seen on the ground is simply inconsistent with the use of earthquake bombs as claimed by Trump and the Pentagon – although the polite fiction that the sites were destroyed is perhaps helpful to keep the peace. There’s little indication the US or Israel even has a clear idea of where Iran’s true “nuclear black sites” are actually located, let alone that they effectively struck them during the war.
7. Which leads directly into the point I made upfront. As near as anyone can tell – and if they don’t already have them – Iran simply has a straight-line path to nuclear warheads at this point. Their enrichment infrastructure, stockpile of highly enriched uranium, and the black sites at which the work would be done to finish enrichment and manufacture warheads all appear to be intact. And the war that Netanyahu has been threatening for decades to prevent an Iranian nuclear breakout just happened… and succeeded in perhaps disrupting Iran’s timetable by a few weeks.
8. The American role in all of this is… well, perhaps “mysterious” is being generous. “Schizophrenic” may be more accurate. Tying the arc of Trump’s Truth Social pronunciamentos together with observed actions on the ground gives one the impression that the Trump Administration wrote Netanyahu a blank check in Iran, closely coordinated the road to war with the Israeli government… and then did an about-face when an avalanche of criticism poured in from the American public and it became clear the Iranian state was far from the Syriaesque house of cards that I’m sure Netanyahu painted it as.
9. All of this means that the way forward for Iran is, for once, largely in the hands of the Iranian government. This ties into a broader point of analysis I’ve touched on several times, which is the Iranian regime’s move from being a disruptor-state in permanent revolution towards geopolitical normalcy, industrialization and national growth. BRICS isn’t a maniacs’ club. To do this they’ve largely cut loose their constellation of “Axis of Resistance” proxies and reoriented their posture towards conventional defensive deterrence. And, well, it wasn’t pretty but I think Israel and the US did in fact get deterred in the end.
10. Very conveniently for anyone in Iran wanting to “normalize” the state and the military going forward, the IRGC took a beating in this war both in terms of raw attrition among its senior leadership and in terms of organizational credibility as a decisive deterrent against Israel. Almost like a lot of people got hung out to dry for blowing Syria and failing to take responsibility, but I digress. The logical way to develop Iranian power and prestige going forward isn’t just nuclear warheads but the development of a strong conventional military and intelligence apparatus – something that has sat on the back burner for decades while the IRGC got infiltrated by Mossad and wrote an entire encyclopedia on military gimmicks.
11. This is paradoxically at least somewhat positive for Israeli security going forward. An Iran with a weakened and discredited IRGC, that is integrated into global economic and political systems, is an Iran that will not be seeking confrontation with Israel. It will merely look quite a bit different than Netanyahu’s preferred solution of setting everywhere in the Middle East that hasn’t been subverted into an Israeli proxy on fire.
So who won? Well, I don’t think Iran won – but Israel sure lost.
Topical meme to close.

launching stand-off missiles packing at most a hundred or two kgs of explosives is quite different than eating a ton or two of Sijjils and Khoramshahrs. Even though Tehran was focused on, it is by itself so huge, the metro almost hosting 17M, and the core city 707 km² (almost double Gaza’s 365 km²!). Prof Marandi said he could neither hear nor feel some of the bombardment in other parts of Tehran from his home.. It would take Team Zion years to Gaza all of Iran, when they would have mere weeks of survival in their turn, when Iran resumes the Demolition… and this is if even the entire western air forces join in the savaging, and Iran has no help from friends. The conventional aerial bombing of Persia is not gonna work, like in the heyday of Bomber Harris or the madman Buck LeMay. It ain’t gonna work on any of the massive Heartland states. Nuke or Kneel. And it still remains a Murder-Suicide even then– During the recent battle.. 4 Israeli universities and institutes were subjected to Iranian bombardment in Haifa, “Tel Aviv” and occupied Beer Sheva.

💠 @Yemen | Bab-el-Mandeb:
⭕ ✍ Many who think that the war currently unfolding in Iran, resulting from the Israeli military aggression against Iran, is limited to the Israeli entity and Iran alone are making a significant mistake. What is happening is a natural extension of a series of troubling events, from the suspicious incidents of September 11, 2001, to the Iran-Iraq War, Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait, NATO’s military intervention in Libya and the overthrow of its regime, the siege of Syria and the dispatch of tens of thousands of armed terrorists to incite chaos and topple its government, the invasion and occupation of Iraq, and the so-called Arab Spring revolutions, to the genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank and the bombardment of its resistance factions, as well as strikes on resistance fronts in Lebanon, the besiegement of resistance movements in Iraq, and the overthrow of the Syrian regime. Finally, we arrive at the Israeli aggression, fully supported by the United States and the West, against Iran. All of these events, among others, are interconnected links in a single chain, with the overarching strategic goal of redrawing the entire map of the Arab region from the Atlantic to the Gulf, along with the surrounding regional areas of Iran, Pakistan, Turkey, and Afghanistan. This plan, referred to by the U.S. after the dubious events of September 11, 2001, is known as the “Greater Middle East” or “New Middle East” project, announced in a global press conference by U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell and National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice.All of the aforementioned events are merely steps toward implementing the new imperialist Zionist project of the “Greater Middle East,” with the Israeli entity positioned as the exclusive agent of American Western imperialism and the tool executing its agendas in the region and the world. This is to crown Israel as the absolute leader of this project, under the strategy of the dominant American Western imperialist powers, with their oversight and guidance.
It is true that the Israeli aggression, fully supported by the U.S. and its Western allies, is aimed at Iran and is designed to disarm it and overthrow its regime, as was done in Libya, Syria, and Iraq before. This is because Iran represents the strongest, most important, and largest obstacle with the strategic capabilities and vision to confront and resist this new colonial project. Their hope is that by overthrowing Iran, or at least by imposing a comprehensive economic and military blockade to suffocate it and destroy its military capabilities—particularly its missile and drone systems, in addition to its peaceful nuclear program—they can begin preparing for the declaration of their Greater Middle East project to replace the conditions established by the old colonial powers (France and Britain) according to the Sykes-Picot Agreement, which has nearly run its course.
This is the projected scenario based on observing the surrounding events and its strategic goal. However, a significant question remains: Will it succeed, or will it face obstacles, difficulties, and resistances that the planners of this new Zionist imperialism did not foresee, causing its trajectory to falter and shatter the intoxication of victories that have blinded it to a new reality that contradicts what they imagined and rushed to impose with brute force and blind arrogance?
The outcome of the aggressive war imposed by the Zionist imperialist powers on Iran will soon answer this question, especially if we consider that this war involves and intersects with various apparent or hidden international and regional forces!
⭕ 🇾🇪 The official spokesperson for Ansar Allah, Mohammed Abdelsalam: We salute Iran—its leadership, people, and army—for engaging with strength, bravery, and determination in the 12-day war, making significant sacrifices. This is the price for the will of independence and freedom and principled stances on the Palestinian cause. The daily and devastating missile strikes against the entity stand as a proud testament that Iran, as the first Islamic country with its own military arsenal, confronted an enemy armed with the latest Western weapons. The battle was not only against Israel, as a forward American base, but also against the United States and other Western countries that sided with the aggressors.Iran’s steadfastness in its peaceful nuclear rights and principled positions confirms the enemy’s failure to achieve its declared objectives. The crimes committed against its scientific and military personnel, along with the bombing of various facilities, will not prevent Iran from exercising its legitimate rights.
Iran’s heroic resistance to Israeli aggression has given the nation hope for the possibility of resisting the enemy and refusing to submit to its terms. It sends a powerful message that the violation of the region will come at a cost, and that Israel is incapable of engaging in any battle without American support.
What protects the sovereignty of the countries in the region and restores their dignity is for them to leave behind divisions and unite on common ground, realizing that they are all threatened by an entity that the U.S. wants to use as a heavy-handed tool against any nation aspiring for strength, dignity, and independence.
⭕ 🇾🇪 Great Yemen was subjected to nearly a hundred daily airstrikes by American stealth aircraft including B2s, F35s, and F16s, along with Tomahawk missiles from the sea and Israeli attacks. Yet, it did not collapse, waver, or surrender, thank God. Instead, it has intensified its missile and drone assaults on the occupying entity, as well as on American aircraft carriers and warships, at a high pace, until they raised the white flag and withdrew in humiliation, without any embellishments or gloss.
⭕ 🔴 Breaking News 🔴A special source from Gaza reports to Bab al-Mandab channel that the resistance has successfully carried out an operation to capture occupation soldiers in Gaza.
⭕ We reassure our brothers in Gaza, from the heart of Yemen, that you are not alone, O leaders of humanity, O people. Allah is with you, and Yemen stands with you, and has not abandoned you.
⭕ A loud explosion reverberated throughout the occupied city of Jaffa, known as Zionist Tel Aviv.
[This was 25th]
⭕ Mohammed Ali Al-Houthi, a member of the Supreme Political Council in Yemen, stated: “Diplomacy has failed to stop the massacre in Gaza. The path to victory is: ‘And prepare against them whatever you are able of power.'”
⭕ As part of Operation “David’s Stones,”
Al-Qassam Brigades have released footage of an ambush targeting two Zionist military transports, which the enemy confirmed resulted in the death of 7 soldiers, including an officer, near the Ali bin Abi Talib Mosque in the Ma’an area south of Khan Younis, Gaza Strip.
#Flood_of_Al-Aqsa
[Ali bin Abi Talib was the son-in-law and cousin of the Islamic Prophet, and direct ancestor of Khamenei, Nasrallah, the Al Houthis, Al Sistani (Iraq), and i think even the current Iranian FM. Also Laith Marouf, Prof Marandi and the current PM of Pakistan. It is increasingly a Club on the opposing side too, albeit of soldiers for the good. Ali was hero of the battle of Khaibar/Khaybar (another Persian arrow) that ended the Jewish domination of the Arabian peninsula. The Iranians named the Zhulfiqar missile after his sword of the same name]
⭕ The footage released by the Al-Qassam Brigades from the Khan Younis operation, which resulted in the death of an officer and six soldiers, along with the injury of seventeen others, will strike the leadership of the occupation army like a thunderbolt.The bravery of the Palestinian fighter is beyond description. The fighter who threw the second explosive device inside the troop transporter while returning confidently stated: “We will continue to hit them until they withdraw.”
A resistance with such faith will never raise a white flag.

⭕ Donald Trump asked Iranians to evacuate their capital Tehran before bombing it, supplied Israel with bombed and intel, agreed on Netanyahu’s war, bombed Iran and demand a total surrender. That is a B-2 propagandist not peace candidate. You can’t go lower.
⭕ Now, eyes back on Gaza, the potential mini-war on Lebanon and the daily flirting Israel-Syria relationship that is going at the speed of light.
⭕ Israel estimates 11000 people lost their home, either completely destroyed or inhabitable due to its war declaration on Iran and the Iranian missiles. The estimate material damage (not economic and its consequences, only the constructions) is estimate at 4 billion Shekls.
⭕ The Palestinian resistance killed 7 Israeli officers and soldiers in an ambush in Gaza. Israel released these figures.
⭕ To those who didn’t follow the last 12 days war, let me explain in simple words what happened:- Israel bombed Iran
- Iran bombed Israel
- The US bombed Iran
- Iran bombed Qatar
- The US thanked Iran
- Iran apologised from Qatar
- Qatar mediate with Iran
- Israel thanked Qatar
- The US said peace is imposed.
⭕ Two critical developments today:
- Donald Trump admitted that “Israel was hit badly and suffered great damage” from Iran’s missile strikes—public recognition of the scale and impact Tehran inflicted.
- Iran’s parliament has officially shut the door on the IAEA. Director @rafaelmgrossi is now pleading for access to assess nuclear site damage so he can report—presumably—to those still pretending diplomacy is alive.
[this is best way Persia can dig in the dagger – withdraw from IAEA, ban the bastards esp Grossi, then keep mum and plausible deniability about capabilities and intent. This will shatter nazi narratives and keep them frothing]
⭕ Bad news for Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu and someone will get fired:
US intelligence report said “Iran can regain its enrichment uranium in only a few months and Fordow underground facility is intact. Only the entreace and exists were damaged but easy to remove”.
WOW! All this show and war for nothing. Well done Iran.

The facility operates directly under the Prime Minister’s Office, with Israel insisting its work is purely defensive.
Its secrecy and restricted access have fueled years of speculation about possible offensive bioweapons research. |media|
⭕🔻 Ian Ellis: During the deployment, which involved operations inside Japan’s EEZ, Chinese carrier-based J-15 fighters carried out “unusual maneuvers” near Japanese surveillance aircraft.According to Japan’s Ministry of Defense, on 7 June, the J-15s made “unusually close approaches to P-3C aircraft, including approaching horizontally at a distance of 45 meters (about 150 feet) without any altitude separation. On 8 June, one J-15 crossed directly in front of the P-3C’s flight path, at approximately 900 meters with no altitude separation, constituting a near head-on crossing.”

💠 @Intel Slava Z:
‼️ Iranian Strategy: Death by a Thousand Cuts for IsraelIran’s missile strategy appears to be working: initial heavy missile (& drone) barrages drained Israeli interceptors, and now fewer launches are landing more hits.
This points to better accuracy, degraded defenses, and a shift to inflicting long-term attrition on Israel.
📝 In the latest ballistic missile attack, Iran launched approximately 15 missiles, with six impacting various regions across Israel. Signs of depletion in Israel’s air defense systems started to show up, with 60% interception rate.
⭕❗️Hebrew Media: ‘While Israel could have continued the war offensively, its defensive capabilities were running dry — there was no way out’
⭕‼️Fox News: Acting Navy Chief warns US is using missile interceptors “at an alarming rate” in MideastSenator Brian Schatz (D-HI): “The latest round of conflict in the Middle East utilized, large amounts of munitions to defend Israel from Iranian strikes. Does the Navy currently have all the SM3s it needs for global threats?”
ADMIRAL JAMES KILBY / NAVAL OPERATIONS ACTING CHIEF: “I’ll take this. We do, sir, but we are to your point, using them at an alarming rate. As you know, those are, missiles procured by the Missile Defense Agency and then delivered to the Navy for our use. And we are using them quite effectively in the defense of Israel.”
📝 Intel Slava – The reason Israel and the United States agreed to a ceasefire with no agreements on nuclear matters while offering concessions to Iran is simple: the Iranians had exhausted the Israeli air defense network.
We had multiple reports to this effect in the last few days and Monday was the first time the interception rate had dropped to 50% with the first successful Iranian strike on Israeli power infrastructure, which is a well known weakness for Israel.
⭕ Israel’s supply woes extend beyond their looming shortage of interceptors before the ceasefire with Iran; three US officials told NBC that Israel was running short on ammunition amidst 626 days of the war in Gaza and last year’s 56-day ground confrontation with Hezbollah.
⭕ Trump compared the US strikes on Iran to the nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II.“I don’t want to draw parallels with Hiroshima or Nagasaki, but it is essentially something similar that ended that war. And this ended this war,” the US president said at the NATO summit.
Let us recall that, according to CNN, Pentagon intelligence has not yet found evidence that Iran’s nuclear facilities have been destroyed.
But Trump says Israeli intelligence agents were there and saw the destruction for themselves.

⭕ 🇮🇷🇮🇱| A few brief points about the alleged “ceasefire”:- The ceasefire, was requested by the Israeli regime & the US, which is a clear sign of their weakness on the battlefield and their inability to continue the current trajectory of the war with Iran.
- Iran reportedly accepted the cessation of fire on condition that it will deliver one final widespread blow to the Israeli regime — a condition the Israeli regime accepted.
- Iran’s strikes on “Israel” this morning were extremely intense and inflicted heavy casualties but due to military censorship, you’ve only heard about the Beershaba impact because it’s in a civilian area.
- There is no peace between Iran and the Zionist regime. The ceasefire has was accepted by Iran merely to address some deficiencies and shortfalls. Iran remains fully prepared to punish the Zionist regime.
- According to a consensus among political and military experts, the current ceasefire is very fragile, and Iran will respond immediately to any action by the regime.

⭕ 🇮🇷| The Khatam al-Anbiya HQ Spokesperson warns Israel:- Israel violated Iranian airspace with drones this morning.

— Israel continues its aggression
— The country is preparing to intensify retaliatory strikes
— “We are not going to listen to the lies of our enemies

- Iran would need to be beyond naive to accept or trust any word or action by the US – the US has not spent decades trying to topple Iran amid its regional murder spree to suddenly abandon it – its ENTIRE global aspirations hinge on it – it has used Israel as a conduit to launder its war crimes & provocations through & will continue to;
- To effect regime change, the US would benefit most by luring Iranian leaders out of cover & striking them, provoking retaliations & further war;
- Iran requires not a “Libya model,” but a “North Korea model” or else this process will repeat itself until it concludes in Washington and Wall Street’s favor;
- The same “experts” who failed to see this war coming in the first place are now citing 5D chess strategies to explain how the Trump administration somehow averted a war entirely of its (and the establishment it serves) own creation and design to begin with;
- The US will only stop when (1) people stop falling for this through excessive delusion, and (2) the rest of the world unites to force the US to stop;
- If a genuine ceasefire is reached, it will likely have been the work of Russia and China quietly forcing the US to, through private but sufficient threats coupled with a graceful public exit ramp – though the chances of the US honoring it hover around 0%; |THREAD|

And what “12th hour”: the one 12 hours after the 6th hour, or is it 12 hours from now?
And the “24th hour” is a) 24 hours from now, b) 24 hours after the 6th hour or c) 24 hours after the 12th hour? If it’s a), does it therefore mean that it’s 6 hours after the 12th hour, assuming the 12-hour countdown starts 6 hours from now?

⭕ So you’re saying that israel hasn’t shown the results of Iranian missile strikes for days, but this morning, at the same time as the “ceasefire” began, footage of a destroyed “peaceful” building became available to everyone.Disrespectful Zionists, stop scaring Trump with bloodthirsty Iranians. It doesn’t work anymore.
💠@Fotros Resistance:
⭕ Israeli man wrote:“Why? What is Israel’s interest in this?
We surrendered and now we are also containing [our response].”
[so Iran did send a missile after the “ceasefire”? Remember how they ended the last hours; anticipating Zion would be most savage in hours before a cessation of hostilities (like killing most Gazans in similar times) they launched five or six waves, leveling several high towers and rubbishing the imputation of impunity and that Iran was submitted in any fashion whatsoever. So did they really send an additional missile long after too? And the French radars were blasted in Iraq after too. IOW both sides anticipate a near resumption and continue to shape narratives. Even the pretense of narrative victories will no longer be permitted the criminals]
⭕ Axios wrote:Trump in a message to Israel: “Don’t bomb Iran. If you do, it will be a serious violation of the ceasefire. Bring the pilots back home now.”
⭕ Hossein Pak:“I have spent nearly a decade of my life studying and fighting this child-killing cancer; not in the library, but in the field.
I remember the day when we had an exam in my master’s degree entitled “History of the Arab-Israeli Wars.” I was on my way from Damascus airport to Zainabiyah, taking the exam via Skype, when suddenly the enemy bombed a building.
The professor asked: What was that sound?
I replied: The answer to one of the exam questions!
[the blessed clay stones prepared in the Hellfire for the demons]Before God and all the martyrs, I testify that what I am saying today is not out of emotion or prejudice, but the result of years of careful study, understanding the enemy’s behavior, and living in the context of the field. I never uttered a word unless I believed in its truth and accuracy.
I emphasize with all my heart: the enemy did not achieve its goals in this war.
Their main goal was to overthrow the Iranian nation-state, not just to inflict damage or psychological warfare. Eliminating the Islamic Republic’s deterrent power was also on the agenda. But in the end, it was Iran that forced the enemy to accept the ceasefire.I am not saying that we did not suffer any damage or that the danger was completely eliminated; but we struck the enemy in a balanced manner – except in the matter of assassinating commanders, which still needs to be compensated.
We achieved our goals and identified important weaknesses. And this ceasefire is not like Lebanon in “form” (because a resolution was issued by the Security Council), nor in “direction”; because we are not faced with internal divisions [now].
Let me be clear: if the enemy wins the “war of narratives,” he will immediately violate the ceasefire. On the first day of the ceasefire in Lebanon, I reached Bint Jbeil and even managed to withdraw the wounded; the enemy did not even dare to attack.
But after the fall of Syria and the victory of the enemy in the war of narratives, the Zionists advanced to “Wadi Al-Hujair”.
The enemy’s adherence to the ceasefire depends on our power; if we believe that the enemy has been defeated, just as the region’s faith turned after the 33-day war, this time too a new chapter will open in the region and the world.
But if we ourselves start to propagate our defeat, the enemy will have no commitment to the ceasefire.”
[the demented West is over the proverbial barrel. These ceasefires, in addition to replenishing and taking stock, are now being worked by their sea of enemies on denial of optical lying “victories”. Even the pretense must be denied, to have a chance of extinguishing Forever Wars. To bury them in deed then in writing. PsyWar component of Totalen Krieg must be addressed]
💠@Fotros Resistance:
⭕ Important to note:Israel & US have used up 20 years worth of interceptor missiles. Their production is not easy or fast.
Don’t be fooled by their media claims, they urgently needed a cessation of fire as their stockpile was running out.
⭕❗️🇮🇷| Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) statement:Declared that in response to Israeli attacks, Iran’s armed forces have proven their strength and are fully prepared to respond decisively to any future aggression. It says that any aggression will be responded accordingly and all enemy bases—from West Asia to deep inside Israel—are now legitimate targets.
Full statement:
🇮🇷| Full statement by the SNSC secretariat:
To the dear and resilient Iranian people,
In the wake of the cowardly Zionist aggression, the bravery and sacrifice of your sons in the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran—under the guidance of the Commander-in-Chief—have demonstrated the nation’s deterrent power and decisive response. They expanded the scope of retaliation and delivered a painful blow to the enemy. This response ultimately showed that American and Zionist bases—from West Asia to deep within the occupied territories—are now all potential targets.
Your vigilance, strategic use of opportunities, steadfast resistance, and unprecedented national unity have thwarted the enemy’s main plan, turned threat into opportunity, and paved the way for the endurance of the soldiers of Islam. It also revealed to the world the extraordinary strength of the devoted fighters—full of initiative and creativity. This strength was evident during the 12 days of bloody resistance and was always prepared to respond appropriately and forcefully to any aggression.
God’s divine gift throughout this path—along with the balanced conduct, deep understanding, prudent strategy, and patience of the fighters and the families of martyrs and the wounded—was victory over the enemy, the shattering of its image, rejection of the logic of surrender, and the opening of an irreversible path forward.
Accordingly, the Islamic Republic of Iran declares—consciously and confidently—that its armed forces, backed by the people, are fully prepared to deliver a firm and decisive response to any act of aggression or threat by the enemy, at any time and in any place.
“And victory is only from Allah, the Almighty, the Wise.”
⭕ Quick introductory lesson on SNSC:It’s a council with 23 members that vote on national security matters.
Council is chaired by 14 members of the government (the ministers & head braches & president himself) and, 8 seats consist of the leader’s representative (now, that’s Saeed Jalili & Ahmadian) and chief commanders of the army & IRGC. And the last seat by the Parliament speaker (Ghalibaf).
Each member has 1 vote to pass a decision.
In summary the government holds 14 votes out of the 23. Parliament 1 vote, army & IRGC 4 votes, and judiciary 1 vote.
⭕ Ceasefire? Confused? Me too. But let’s review:One thing clear: There’s no agreement.
I have some theories, but I will keep them for myself for now.
- Trump announced a ceasefire between Iran & Israel, without both anyone saying anything.
- Iranian FM tweets at 4:20 AM that any attack after 4AM will be met with a response, otherwise no attack from Iran but also no agreement (he tweeted this 20 mins after his own deadline).
- 1 hour before the ceasefire would kick in: Iran launched several waves of missiles against Israel, with 1 very big impact in Beershaba killing at least 8. Other impacts were censored.
- Last attack was launched before the “alleged ceasefire” but arrived after the ceasefire.
- 3 hours later, Israel claims one single missile was launched from Iran; but Iran denied.
- Now Israel vows to respond on Tehran
- Iran’s SNSC issued a statement indirectly announcing no attacks but says the finger is on the trigger.
- So what now? => If Israel does attack on Tehran, then alleged “ceasefire” (that does not exist on paper) will be void and Iran will attack Israel again.
- But if Israel does not attack Iran and swallows the painful hits, then no attacks for now.
⭕ Khatam al-Anbiya HQ spox:
“The Zionist regime attacked our centers on Iranian soil in 3 stages until 9AM this morning.”
“The armed forces had previously announced that they would not leave any aggression unanswered and that this regime would pay a heavy price.”

⭕ Iranian missile expert/enthousiast:Time is on our side. Iran’s missile production rate has recently multiplied, and a ceasefire or peace agreement could greatly help us recover our defensive and air defense capabilities.
This war has taught us many valuable lessons that must be implemented. However, the other side has carried out its plans almost flawlessly, and I don’t think they could have done it any better (meaning, they used their most high tech weapons and yet still failed to get Iran on its knees, so Iran resisted very strongly)
Elijah caught the essence of the current moment on the phrase below. The king is naked.
…any Iranian retaliation at this stage threatens to shatter Israel’s carefully crafted narrative of having reestablished deterrence against Tehran…@ejmalrai https://t.co/gdIa8q4aJi

⭕ The Zionists will never forget what Iran did to them—in Tel Aviv, in Haifa, and across the map. The strikes left scars that no air raid siren can drown out. History will record it: a chapter they won’t be able to erase.A ceasefire with no agreement isn’t peace. It’s a pause—a countdown to the next round, whether near or not far off.
⭕ The next 12 hours will determine everything.
Either the ceasefire holds—or the war reignites.
I’m betting on the former.
🔻 C1: Does the issue of zero enrichment get resolved or punted?
🔻 EM: Iran will always enrich uranium.
🔻 C2: So from your point of view does Iran need to improve its defenses before re-engaging? Or do you think they should keep the pressure on Israel militarily until there is a resolution to the genocide in Gaza?
🔻 EM: Iran will prepare itself for: either a nuclear bomb or a more sophisticated air defence and hypersonic missiles.
⭕ Several Drones hit and destroyed French radars in 3 Iraqi (not US) military installations at Ali Bin Abi Taleb, Balad and al-Taji. Baghdad is not willing to accuse any side.
These drones did not come from outside the country where several US military bases enjoy total dominance over the Iraqi sky.
⭕ This attack took place AFTER the ceasefire between Iran and Israel announced by the US.
⭕ Benjamin Netanyahu said he has removed and destroyed Iran’s missile program …….
[how deep the western rabbit hole goes… on and on and on, even down beyond Sheol]
⭕ If Israel violates the ceasefire, Iran will respond and the ceasefire won’t hold.
⭕ Benjamin Netanyahu possesses a rare talent—the ability to believe his own lies. That takes a special kind of skill, and he’s mastered it.
[he’s got the damnedest job of any Empire in History – of strutting and proclaiming hegemony, even as it dies before reaching the Cradle, a stillborn brown stain between the twitching plump Anglo maternal thighs]
⭕ No ceasefire can hold: Israel is prepared to bomb Iran that is prepared to bomb Israel.
⭕ Iran accepted a ceasefire without any formal agreement or defined terms—merely a temporarily cessation of hostilities, with no conditions, no limitations, and no commitments on either side.
⭕ Today, I’ll publish two articles offering in-depth analysis of the current situation—and what both the U.S. and Iran failed to destroy. My latest piece was shared without a paywall.If you find value in this work, consider subscribing to my blog—or here—to access future articles as they’re published
Those who know the Iranian people and their history know that the Iranian nation isn’t a nation that surrenders.
