The amount of lying and bullshit out there about this war is astounding! Also I have hardly experienced more belligerent, ignorant, dangerous idiots than I have in the last few days. Is that what war does to people? I’m sorting through the bullshit and constant lies and propaganda to figure out what’s really going on.
I think I’m the first person on Substack reporting this, but that happens of lots of these events. That’s why you need to subscribe!
Iran Fights Back!
Marg bar Israel! Marg bar Amrika!
- Persian chant
Qatar: Iran fired six missiles at the Al-Udeid US base in Qatar. All of media outlets are just saying, “Qatar under attack…explosions heard over Qatar…Qatari officials say all missiles intercepted…bla bla.”
The MSM is implying that all of the missiles were intercepted or is just saying they’re in the air. They’re all lying because at the time they were broadcasting, I had known for some time that three of those missiles hit the base. I can tell you right now that the interception rate of those missiles was only 50%.
The US surely used Patriot missiles to defend the base, and they may have used THAAD missiles and AEGIS sea-fired missiles too. All three are being used by the US, and a lot of missiles are cutting right through the West’s best anti-ballistic missile batteries like butter. Clearly the West is simply not able to shoot down many of these cutting edge missiles.
Syria: Three short range missiles were fired at the US base in Al-Hasakh. No further information. They were probably fired by the Popular Mobilization Forces of the Iraqi Army. This wing of the Iraqi Army has been attacking US for some time. I guess because it’s embarrassing to admit that our Iraqi colony is attacking its host is too humiliating, this branch of the military is called an “Iranian militia.” That’s bullshit. Everyone in that force is an Iraqi. It is mostly made up of Iraqi Shia but there are also separate Sunni, Sunni-Shia mixed, Christian, and Yazidi battalions, so this is not a force that discriminates against Sunnis. In fact they love to work with them. The Iraqi Army also operates in Syria, a lot and the units there often shoot missiles at our bases.
USA: Trump went into the situation room with his national security advisors, and that’s never a good thing. It most always means a large US attack is being planned. Republican after Republican made belligerent warlike statements. One Congressman threatened to destroy downtown Tehran!
The other day, the Russian leader Roy Medvedev suggested that nuclear countries should give Iran a nuclear weapon to defend itself. Trump flipped out when he read that, made a post to Truth Social, and threatened to shoot a nuclear weapon from a US submarine at Russia!
War Fever!
All US mainstream news sources have war fever something bad. All of them are rooting for this war and they all started cheerleading for it as soon as it started. Criticism of the war from Democratic officials has been very weak. Before the US attacked, only 16% of the US supported the war. Why Trump thought starting a war with 16% support was a good idea is not known, but Republicans are ruthless and always act like they don’t care about polls.
They routinely do things that are widely opposed by large percentages of the population. They act like they have impunity and like the rules that apply to other people don’t apply to them. Basically public opinion does not matter to Republicans. They have a minority agenda to push, and they will push it come Hell or high water due to ideology and because their very wealthy donors demand it.
Republicans work only for their millionaire and billionaire donors and not at all for their constituents. To some extent this is true of the Democrats too. MSNBC, the station of the Democratic Party, is pushing for war with every segment. We do have the alternative media on the Left, and they are in general doing a great job. More and more Americans are flushing the corporate MSM down the toilet where it belongs and watching the alternative media instead.
With war fever on, the American morons who support every US war come out to play. The war had 16% support before it started. After this ridiculous attack on Iran’s peaceful and harmless nuclear program, support for the strikes went up to 35%.
All you have to do is drop a dozen bombs or shoot a score and half of missiles at the enemy, and you’ve already got one third of the country on your side! And it doesn’t seem to matter who we attack! Whoever we attack, it was always a righteous cause against an evil enemy. What a nation of retarded clowns we are. Watch that 35% number go even higher after these Gulf attacks.
Palestine Protests Need to Branch Out and Start Protesting Everything Else Connected with US Imperialism and the Military Industrial Complex
Americans have simply got to get over this insane love affair they have with the US military and US wars. The US military is basically crap, an overtly imperialist army with an imperialist ideology built right into it that is impervious to change. Our wars and attacks are only rarely for good reasons. Democrats are better and less belligerent as they tend to focus on more deserving targets. But they still war crimes like double tap strikes.
84% of Americans supported the US military in a recent poll. Congress wants a $1 trillion US military budget while making vast cuts to programs for real people. Americans clearly have a almost sexual attraction for US militarism and the military industrial complex. We fought huge battles against this evil octopus in the 60’s, and it seems we are back to the drawing board with nothing changed and things getting worse.
Our campaigns for Palestine and against this war have to expand to include an attack on US militarism, insane Pentagon budgets, and the military-industrial complex or Deep State that clearly runs the country. Protest movements need to step back and look at the whole picture. In the UK, 78% wanted to cut off military aid to Israel, while a solid majority recently supported British bombings of Yemen. These people are not seeing the whole picture. They’re only seeing part of it so they’re effectively half-blind.
US Attacks on Harmless Iranian Nuclear Sites Were Largely a Failure or Only a Partial Success
That idiot dropped 12 bombs on the Fordow nuclear site and 30 cruise missiles at the other two nuclear sites, causing a lot of damage on the surface but little or no damage below. The GBU bombs simply blew big holes in the ground at the top of the site. These holes now have water in them. People were climbing down into the holes. I’m estimating the holes are 50-75 deep but I’m guessing.
They mostly blew through soft earth. The problem is that most nuclear material at Fordow is hidden in a huge site at the bottom of the mountain under 2,500 feet of solid rock. So it looks like those useless bombs only got within 100 feet of a half-mile deep site. They only got 4% of the way down to the site, with 96% of probably impenetrable material still to go.
There are cameras at the bottom of the site a half-mile down and they are still working fine. Those bombs didn’t touch the main part of the site. You won’t be able to get at it without nuclear bombs or a sending a Special Operations team to raid the place and once again, one wonders what to do. Blow it up and risk massive radiation leak, especially to your SO team?
It appears that the attack on Fordow was an utter failure. Also there were twenty huge trucks that came out of tunnels at Fordow in the days before the attack. They carted away the 800 pounds of refined uranium that Iran has. No one has any idea where they are stashing it. The IAEA demands answers and Iran is telling them to go to Hell.
The attacks on Isfahan and Natanz fared better, but all they did was destroy a lot of buildings on the surface. Most of the Natanz site is buried under 300 feet of solid rock and extremely reinforced concrete and those missiles didn’t penetrate one inch of that ground.
Israel: Interception rate in Israel went from 85% (probably bullshit) to 65%.
Today, 10 missiles were fired at Israel and I believe seven of them hit.
Hits were reported in Ashdod, where a power plant was destroyed, shutting off power for 9,000 customers.
There was another hit on an Israeli military base in Safad. Iran says it’s hitting Israeli military bases all the time, but everything about these bases is strictly censored and we are just not getting any news about it.
I have no idea where the other five hits were.
Iran also says it has caused a lot of IDF casualties and at one hospital there are so many of them that the new ones are being housed in the basement. It also says there have been deaths from these hits on Israeli bases. There’s no way to determine if that’s true. Possibly all IDF casualties are being censored.
Two dead IDF were seen being taken out of the Israeli Defense Department building after it was hit by an Iranian missile. It does look like this building was hit. This has not been confirmed.
Two Israeli nuclear scientists were assassinated in Haifa by two armed men, apparently Iranian agents. I got no further information about this and I have no idea it is. Iran has definitely had agents in Israel for years and it has a number of safe houses.
A few years back there was an Iranian intelligence hit on Mossad colonel in his car at a stoplight. The hit men vanished. They had been in Israel for two years staying in a safe house undetected. I saw the video of this and someone was definitely shot dead in their car. A few minutes after the hit, cops were swarming to the scene. A couple of minutes late, many soldiers were racing to the site. Israel said this was just some routine common criminal act, probably between rival organized crime gangs. I believe that’s bullshit.
The Mossad building was hit. This is a bad rumor. A missile hit near the Mossad building. A building on the Unit 800 signals intelligence branch of AMAN Israeli military intelligence was hit.
After the attack on the Weizmann Scientific Institute which is intimately collected with the Israeli military, whole labs and decades of work were destroyed. There was a report from a scientist who worked who said that some scientists were killed in that attack. There’s no confirmation of this but it looks like good information. Three or four buildings on the Weizmann campus were destroyed.
Attacks on Israeli bases by Iran have gotten so bad that Israel is storing at lot of its combat aircraft at a base in Cyprus. That sounds like it might be good information.
When a Nation Has an Advanced Missile Supply the Size of Iran’s, You Can No Longer Attack Them without Devastating Consequences. It’s as If They Have a Nuclear Weapon
Iranian missiles are cutting through the entire array of the West’s top of the line missiles like soft butter. These defenses are:
US THAAD batteries: Billed as the best land based missile defense on Earth. Built to intercept ICBM’s, which probably isn’t even possible. This ABM missile defense crap, started by Reagan in order to be able to win a nuclear war, has simply never worked. We’ve been working on this nonsense for 45 years now and it still doesn’t work.
The tests are at Vandenberg Air Base in California and they routinely fail. Look! You are not going to be able to shoot down a nuclear missile fired at you, ok? Either don’t get into that situation in the first place or shoot one back at your adversary. The US has fired many of these at THAAD batteries in Israel and the Iranian missiles routinely rip right through them.
US AEGIS missiles: More ABM bullshit, designed to shoot down nukes are part of ABM missile defense BS, similarly to THAAD, has never worked and won’t in the foreseeable future. These are fired by ships. The US has been shooting a lot of these at Iranian missiles in Israel and Iranian missiles rip right by them. Billed at the top of the line sea-based missile defense battery on Earth. I guess not!
US Patriot missiles: These are not even working very well in the Gulf and Ukraine. I doubt if they’re all that effective now. We have been shooting many of these at Iranian missiles in Israel and I imagine the missiles just rip right by them.
Israeli Arrow 3: Once again billed as the world’s top of the line missile defense battery. Routinely fails against Iranian missiles that whiz right by them. Also Arrow’s have been failing and coming back to Israel and blowing up in their own country. One circled back and hit Israel directly at the Netavim Air Base, setting off huge secondary explosions.
This is very odd and people think Iran is hacking these missiles to make them come back and hit Israel. Iran has also been hacking the missile alerts in Israel so they never go off, go off way too late, or go off all day long for no reason. This is ongoing as the alerts are still messed up.
Israeli Arrow 2: Billed as world’s second best missile defense. Routinely failing against Iranian ballistic missiles. It’s not working as advertised. Israel is running low on missiles for their Arrow batteries and reports say it has only two weeks left. There are only a limited amount of them and it takes a long time to make them. It’s looking bad for the Arrow.
Israeli Iron Dome: I doubt if this is working very well at all. It’s designed for smaller missiles like the kind Hamas fires.
It’s fascinating that Iranian missiles are ripping right through all six of the West’s top missile defense batteries. This looks really bad for the West.
The last word about Iran’s supply of advanced ballistic missiles. An arsenal like this is almost as good as a nuclear weapon but the hubris of the US and Israel won’t admit that. The truth is that if you attack Iran now, Iran will sit back and lob missiles at you for some time, and you won’t be able to stop a lot of them. You will have to just sit there and let missiles blow up your country. There’s nothing you do except taking out the regime.
Bottom line is no nearby country or any country with bases near Iran should attack Iran only as a very last resort because there’s essentially no defense against those missiles. This also applies to any country that has a similar number of missiles as advanced as Iran’s. Treat Iran as if it already has nukes. Leave it along except in the most extraordinary circumstances.
The whole thing's crazy. He's already bombed Iran for the wall humpers but now he's threatening nukes. I could've lived with hollow words to appease Israel, the West just seems to bow now, but Trump's totally putting Israel before America. It's MIGA not MAGA.
And the worst part , in Gaza, its business (genocide ) as usual
