they've been completely wrong about russia-ukraine. They were overly confident and sure of russia at the start and then overcompensated and became total doomers that have been wrong for years.

Not directly related but I listened to a radio War Nerd episode for the very first time on Rwanda/Congo and I was sorely disappointed, the host just echoed the cookie-cutter western narrative that has been unchanged since the 90's. Notable (french) experts on the subject have firmly established in the wake of the genocide in Rwanda that the Rwandan Patriotic Front both during and after the genocide participated in mass killings of Hutus inside the Congo near the border regions that rivaled the scale and mass casualties of the Rwandan genocide. Some scholars allege that the Rwandan genocide should be better understood as a "double-genocide_ but this knowledge is nearly completely absent in Western narratives on the conflict. I've heard good things about the Podcast so I hope it was a fluke.

I don't see how damage on either country is objectively verifiable and able to be analyzed by civilians without that particular (presumably top-secret) intelligence knowledge. Israel is under strict military censorship, and while Iran certainly isn't saying everything, they are at least freely releasing the death tolls including those of murdered senior officials, so you're only going to get half the story, and that half is mainly whatever the Zionists said happen and what Iran admits happened.

Even so, the fact that Iran can, to this day, get most of their missile barrages through the nominally most protected air defense zone on the planet (in actuality, parts of Russia are almost certainly better protected) cannot simply be shrugged off for what Iran has done and is capable of doing (namely, taking down critical Israeli infrastructure like power stations, transformer stations, oil pipelines, desalination plants, etc). Yesterday was proof delivered at supersonic speeds: after nearly two years of genocide and war, there remains no physical barrier for Iran to make Israel uninhabitable and depopulated. The same is mostly true of Israel doing that to Iran (especially with nukes), which is why the war is so scary, but there is absolutely a power balance in that sense.

I was expecting Iran to fire 5-6 volleys to retaliate for 5 boming runs, and then leave it at that. If Iranian volleys continue, it's because air defences once online proved more successful than expected/many aircraft were destroyed by ballistic missile, so Iran is safe from further agresión. In wich case it may be the end of the entity, we will know latter today, so far it's been 5 volleys.

I can't find this on the Fars News website, neither in Farsi or English.

idk, i figure that israel goes after military leaders primarily for the headlines and symbolic (yet cheap) victories.

i say let Iran continue to target military infrastructure deep within Tel Aviv and throughout the entity. Keep the settlers to their furherbunkers. Shatter whatever is left of the mythology of an untouchable israel, which the entity relies on to sustain itself.

And honestly, as justified as it would be for Iran to target military leadership and their homes, part of me is concerned that it would be too easily propagandized against Iran... Because of course, how evil would it be for Iran to knowingly attack a residential building!?! The humanity!

i think they should mine the strait of hormuz and Bab al-Mandab Strait

Tit for tat is usually the most effective game approach

Yes absolutely

DID THEY GET HIS CUM

This is the biggest betrayal Indian RW has felt in a while.

I guess even fascist cuckoldry has a breaking point

You forgot the best one where some guy said "Heil Hitler if you do not correct the map of India"

Sir, Bharat stands with Israel sir! Please change to the correct map @idf @israelindia

weird how missiles can only be fired from the center point of Iran and not from near the borders
