The only quasi-win I can get from this is arguing that the UK moving planes to the Middle East means America is going to, since the UK just copies America. I was way off about the announcement of deeper involvement but still.

Only thing to cope/be optimistic about now is how Trump specified the pilots were coming home and now that it was "time for peace", meaning Iran might sit at the table with America and, in a very broad definition, "surrender", since it's not directly to Israel. Maybe negotiate the nuclear stuff now, finally.

If this ends up being over by Monday however, I'd be pleasantly surprised since it means Israel was privy to something since Thursday at least, since they're allowing people to fly again by then. (Another dumb prediction I made was that it would be over by this Monday in the Israel/Iran war thread)

Saturday = bombed
Sunday = react
Monday = call for ceasefire
:optimistic:

Are people seriously freaking out over a literal nothingburger? Christ doompillers havent learnt shit from the Solemani bombing
My main problem is that we have literally zero fucking interest in the Middle East and we mocked the Ukraine conflict because of the same shit. The only difference is that Israel is in the middle and we are supposed to care for some reason.

We have been bombing them for decades and it keeps getting worse there.
 
Iran having nothing left has to be propaganda. They have a shit ton of mountain missile bunkers that have thousands of missiles inside. It's the same tier of propaganda of "Russia running out of ammunition" from way back in 2022. Israel already made it illegal to film missile strikes and the US already evacuated personnel.
we'll see what happens over the next few days and weeks, then we'll know how much gas they have left in the tank

Iran can also close the strait of Hormuz and cripple the world economy, alongside the price of oil.
there's a us carrier group in the area, no? i don't think irans navy has the ability to close the straits if the us navy wants to keep them open.
