Considering that Iran has fired hundreds, if not thousands, of ballistic missiles since the beginning of the conflict and had - on paper - a sizeable military and industrial capacity prior to the war, the fact that there have been relatively few accounts of successful retaliatory strikes is a pretty clear indication that the US and allies have been effectively "curbstomping" the Iranian military while suffering disproportionately few casualties themselves, no?

And yet the regime still stands, no? And yet the Strait of Hormuz (which you said in the last locked thread would not be closed) is still closed, no? And yet the US is rushing ground troops to the Middle-East because they realize that airpower alone is not enough, no? And yet Trump has lifted sanctions on both Iranian and Russian oil to stablize global price and supply, no? And yet all of America's allies have categorically said they will not participate in any kinetic action to reopen Hormuz despite the degrading of the Iranian military, no?

Actually I'm wondering, is there any water to the US claims that Iranian retaliation strikes are slowing down? Purely based on this thread it would suggest no, but at the same time there has been thousands of airstrikes already conducted by US/Israel so surely they must count for something.

Oh which retaliatory strike did Iran failed at implementing? Or did you miss the news on Iran casually retaliating against Israel's nuclear facility within hours without encountering any resistance?

As for USIS causalities, Iran's claim is they suffered less military causalities than USIS did because, you know, they're all in tunnels, but hey you pick your favourite source right?

But then again Israelis are known to be able to survive a direct hit by a bunker buster in their packed bomb shelter with minor injuries, lol

We know about the strike but guardian really has confirmed it now and a lot of people are injured (probably dead soon). Its no longer deniable that Israel can be hit where it hurts and we are just past week 3. There's still another 6 months to go at the very least.

Israel is gonna have to accept its gonna get hit too. But this time it will be much longer than the 12 day war.

And they haven't even got those nuclear plants or water distillation facilities hit yet. I'm kinda scared when it gets to that point because Israel might really lose it and throw out nukes.
