Unconfirmed but its being reported by Iranian media.
2025 Israel - Iranian conflict
- Thread starter Maikeru
- Start date
Iran is a big country yes.
But this is modern warfare now. Things move very fast. Being at a sizeable disadvantage could lead you to surrendering or suing for peace in just one week. We have seen countries fall at very fast rates once the "support" is gone in recent times.
This has always been the case throughout the history of warfare. Some countries fell quickly, others held on to the bitter end and made their attacker pay dearly.
I suppose now, it all depends on if the people of Iran want to give up, or keep going.
They have the ability to fight for a long, long time, even if all their offensive capabilities and infrastructure are destroyed, but the question now is, do they have the will?
Israel will suffer a nuclear counter strike if Israel nukes someone. 100 % guaranteed.
Can we ban anyone that tries to being religion into this? This is textbook religious extremism -- trying to justify military aggression using religion as an excuse.
Emad abandoned in the middle of nowhere:
Netanyahu alluding to "regime change"
Khamenei is at the mercy of his enemies:

I think however in modern warfare, unless you are resorting to guerilla tactics, once the main support is taken you will lose very fast regardless of will to fight as a conventional force. Modern technology, information and strategy means the enemy knows exactly where to cut you off before you can even react. Before you can regroup together and share willpower together, the enemy would have found ways to prevent that happening and maybe hit you.
Israel hasn't manage to have a complete air superiority above Iran tbh. Much of the attack has been primarily against the least defended position air defense wise. Not to mention the amount collusion between presupposed air strikes and on the ground saboteurs.
