US Attacks Iran 2026

[Soloist]

Iran has reportedly destroyed at least $2 billion of American military equipment. If US air defense systems can be destroyed by a country being pounded by the US and Israel, it doesn't give much assurance that the US could fair very well it an escalated war.

Well no system can handle saturation attacks of a large enough number. 65 ballistic missiles is pretty crazy, I don’t know how many interceptors they had defending it but… I think that’s a little unfair. Static targets after all.

Quite the contrary as you get the updates-
At this point Iran has no navy- their strikes have gone down over 80%. Iran doesn’t have a chance at this point-this is not going well for them.

They never had a chance.

The problem is anytime people try to coordinate together they get bombed, which means they’ll never be a leadership group to negotiate with and also means there is no operational control over any of their military.
I don’t know what the goal of the attack is, but you can’t suppress a country by air war alone.

With the long amount of time the US had to plan for this war, it seems they could have planned for a good way to get US citizens out of the Mideast in a timely fashion.

You certainly don’t want to alert the country you plan on attacking- thousands of Americans have arrived safely home

I'm talking about the ones that are still stuck and having a hard time leaving the Mideast. Plans could be put in place without alerting Iran.

Line up carriers like Atlas air, and don’t give the purpose of the flights. They do military charters all the time. Those 747 high density planes have like 500 seats.

Explain what plans those would be.

Which would be info easily accessible by Iran.

It is not the US’s job to make it easy to take vacations to the Middle East.
Most of the “Americans” in these places are dual citizens anyway.

That is unrealistic. You expect the government to inform a bunch of Americans and have them keep their mouths shut? And or not somehow tip off the actual attack date? I mean… anyone who didn’t know it was coming was missing the big red truck with the aircraft carriers…

During the hearing today it was brought up Obama & Biden both exercised their right without congress and they even had a video of Nancy Pelosi defending that they didn’t need approval from Congress. Of course now that it’s Trump they’re saying differently.

Where do you think the line should be between a conflict that requires authorization from Congress and one that doesn't?

Where do “I” think? You’re asking the wrong person but if you can’t take a chance with information leaking the way the left is right now,,,,, trust issues PLUS the Dems shut down the government.

For the first time since world war 2 one of our submarines shot a torpedo at their target.
The goal is to destroy all facilities including underground where they are able to make nuclear weapons. They had the capability to shoot quite far and getting closer to the point of developing booms that could reach our country-
But mainly to remove the evil regime and hopefully & prayerfully assist in putting a leadership in place that are not terrorists & destroyers of their own citizens like they have been for decades. We list a lot of our own to those that had been in charge.

This is so weird. At work Friday I heard a customer telling our pharmacist that her and her friend were leaving for Dubai. She was tired of the fighting in our own country between the two parties and just wanted a vacation. I’ve never heard of taking a vacation to Dubai before, but I’m not a real traveler to know popular destinations. I’m wondering if she was able to leave for her trip. I hope not. What timing for her to leave for a vacation there??
