Iran Crisis & the 2026 War between Iran and the United States, Gulf States, and Israel - Please focus on news and coverage, not argumentation.

Why the hell would Witkoff continue this charade? Is it a pride thing? Does he not want to admit these people are impossible to make a deal with?
Wondering if the addition of that Iranhawk guy to the negotiating team was a move by Trump to see how accurate all these "We're super close to a deal, I swear" statements coming out of him are.

Random thought I had... I wonder why Iran never published the feed video of their successful strike that killed the 6 soldiers. They are so desperate for wins that they AI videos about planes being hit, pilots being captured, ships being blown up. And yet their solitary actually successful lethal hit of the war they sit on. Maybe they are afraid some Ukraine style ACK video would do more harm than good and galvanize the American public for gloves off revenge, but that would only really make sense if the Iranian government were sober calculating pragmatists which if they were they would not be in this position in the first place.

Afaik it was a series of drone attacks. Maybe I'm just crazy and they were missiles instead?

I'm still wondering why they never published footage of shooting down that F-15E.

imo it's a good thing there are people with different opinions in the room. The highest levels of government shouldn't be kiwi farms dot net where everyone needs their hugbox thread

I figured they just don't have the footage of either of those.

Could be afraid that would give the US an insight into their methods. I guess that could be an explanation for both really. But Hezbollah releases their drone feeds routinely, and its not like Iran has some super secret magic drones that they can't reveal. Who knows.
 

Alleged footage has emerged showing the IRGC targeting a U.S. Navy vessel earlier today.

Ten airliners are currently in a holding pattern outside of UAE airspace and the three tankers I was monitoring just shut off their transponders in the same area.
