Iran Crisis & the 2026 War between Iran and the United States, Gulf States, and Israel - Please focus on news and coverage, not argumentation.

I mean they already sent them full-auto locked and loaded against a mall full of discontents so I don't really think that's playing too hard into their math. I'm presuming that it is more they are scared of Typical Arab* Combat performance and the protesters now having some tanks.

*No else can tell the difference. And there hasn't been any difference since 1979. So suck it.

From what I've seen it's been basij with motorcycles and technicals and IRGC grunts with APCs. Small arms and some light/medium machine guns. Not tanks and .50 cals and all the good heavy stuff

I wonder if the Mullahs will try to unleash the full fury of their broken army on the populace once we start to take them out. Im guessing (hoping) that the goal would be to take them all out at once so the order is never given but I could see the Mullahs ordering it as they try to fly to Russia. Not that we probably wont shoot them out of the sky if they do that but they might not care at that point.

Honestly the massacres might give Russia an excuse not to give them sanctuary as well.

I know this is very difficult to understand with an IQ as low as yours, but when you kill that many people, it normally necessitates foreign involvement. In simpler terms, killing 12,000 people means the US has more reason to blow people up. Hope this helps!

Buddy who escaped Iran with his fam years ago messaged me to say it is much much much more than that. We haven't been in touch for a bit and messaged him when this shit started to see how his fam was doing.

I'm kinda inclined to believe him cause his father was up there in the ranks with irgc. But this ain't something to power level about until it is safe to do so.

Wild shit and on seriouser note... Murica shouldn't be bombing. There's gotta be a way to intervene without shrapnel on the ground.

Maduro some high ranking personnel? Give them helicopter rides above city centers? Have Iranians wake up to the bodies of their enemies? Soft taps. Not hard taps.

their broken army

I have serious doubts the Artesh will be the savior of the mullahs. They are not paid as well as the IRGC and lack training and benefits. Theres been budget issues around pay for them for years now. They would be the first to flip for the Shah just because they are underpaid. They're what I would compare the US Natl Guard. The IRGC are the only ones with idealogical gumption and urban terror training to contain the protests.

My friend was in the Artesh as a radar tech and he worked with old vacuum tube Soviet Frankenstein equipment, that was in 2016. The IRGC get all the good stuff and access to the real missiles and radars because they, in-theory, can be more trusted with the equipment.

Honestly the massacres might give Russia an excuse not to give them sanctuary as well.

Heres hoping. Assad killed somewhere north of 300,000 people but Syria was a shithole no one cared about. The western diaspora population and parallels to the US revolution 250 years ago may be enough for Trump to pressure Russia into denying them a safe haven.

There isn't. You're talking about a theocratic regime that is willing to shoot 12,000 people to death (so far) instead of like, addressing basic issues.

Those numbers are not accurate. It's estimated that 308k civilians died in the war, but tens of thousands of those were killed by the rebels. Not saying any of that is good. Both sides were busy trying to genocide each other. It's different than in Iran since only one side has the ability to genocide.

The western diaspora population and parallels to the US revolution 250 years ago may be enough for Trump to pressure Russia into denying them a safe haven.

What parallels do you see here with the American Revolution? And why would the Western diaspora of Iranians affect Russia's thinking in any way?

I agree. I wholeheartedly agree. However I hope that there could possibly maybe be another way.

Cannot recomend this enough. Fantastic piece on Iran's Water issues. History of Everything Podcast generally does some good non ideological stuff focusing on how some things got this way. For example his Haiti vs Dominican republic piece is excellent.

Perun also covered it quite extensively in his winners and losers of 2025 video

The process in turkey was done by economic prosperity where religion was not needed as much anymore

Turkey was secularised by military coup and almost 20 years of dictatorship in a one-party state, in the immediate aftermath of the great war. Economic prosperity came after that.

The mental gymnastics is amazing. We have some pro Erdogan trolls who turned 180 about Iran and openly threaten and threaten to sue/swat anti Iran gov twitterers

Whomever is behind Erdogan is one psychopathic asshole who presses all the nerve endings of his population.

the iranian kids at my school did pretty well and were generally intelligent, this is in stark contrast to the other muslim kids who universally seemed to be low IQ, borderline retarded even, and were most notable for being disruptive and violent

the ones i met here were pretty alright too though the iranian storeowners that sell imported iranian goods here are very jewish with the prices so haggling them is no good. Though unfortunately due to mass deportations that happened in my state 11 years ago. Its pretty difficult to find normal iranians around here barring the las Vegas of the mid east (dubai). Not to mention, hospitality is a big thing in our culture so we don't tend to shit on the hand that feeds us (barring 1979 and the leftist iranians that got brainwashed by modern colleges lol).

local arabs, afghans and north africans exhibit.

Dunno about the non gulf arabs but tbf, even in the UAE Afghanis and north Africans have a particularly shitty reputation. With Afghanis being how anti social and trashy they are AND the whole thing with them lusting after little boys. And morrocans are a whole another can of worms entirely.

blacks

Blacks around here are generally alright but obviously that's because the government has a tight leash on their necks. The few times the government wasn't careful it ended with niggerian gangs goin around and waving machetes only for the government to assfuck them into oblivion so when it comes to immigration from nigs, they're on a tight leash barring if you're a rich American niggermonkey.

jeets

Believe or not;i used to believe jeets were okay, esp in my early "islamophobia" phase since hell, anything is better than the muslim...until i stumbled upon this site and saw them for what they truly were. Now they deserve getting enslaved by the arabs, you give these cocksuckers an inch and they will shit your country up with retarded hindoo turdskins of their own.

muslims

My relationship with muzzies is complicated because my family is islamic. so while i hate islam as a religion. I can't really fault alot of irreligious muzzies since alot of them don't know the utterly horrific shit muhammad and his savages of arabia did to the middle east and north africa. Hell even i wasn't raised all that religiously since even as early as when i was a kid, i never gave a shit about Islam and in retrospect, I'm glad i never wasted my time following this crappy religion. Still though i try my best not to have genocidal hatred towards muds and see the best in some of them. They should fuck off from europe though. Europe has and will always be for euros. Even for the refugees in the balkan nations that became islamic due to the ottomans. Thats no excuse for non white muzzies to shit up the balkans (certain muzzies like the pakis and syrians have this bizarre belief that since you're a muslim nation. That gives them carte Blanche to shit your nation up or else you go to hell for...RACISM!).

Wahhabism which the Saudis almost single highhandedly prop up through donations and the funding of mosques and madrassas.

I typed too much already so my take on this is; saud is a whore and so are his country and the brits deserve to become an Islamic republic for propping these inbred goatfucking sandmonkeys up.

Israel’s “Zion Wing” presidential aircraft has returned from Heraklion and is believed to be enroute to Cyprus. The flight is part of routine test operations typically conducted days before official overseas trips by Prime Minister Netanyahu or President Herzog. The aircraft is a Boeing 767-300, operating under callsign IAF002 with registration 4X-ISR. Whenever Israel attacks Iran they send the plane to Cyprus to keep it safe.
UPDATE:

It's on its way back to Israel.


"Saars! Please do the needful and leave Iran!"


Satellite imagery from Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar shows no visible surge in US Air Force assets or indications of heightened or imminent military operations as of January 13, 2026. The imagery shows roughly four C-17A Globemaster transport aircraft and around 13 KC-135 and KC-46 aerial refueling tankers, with no B-52H long-range bombers present, despite such deployments having occurred during the 12-day war.

Islamic golden age

Is a fucking scam and I hate people that parrot this nonsense.

The "Golden Age" was actually a continuation of Late Antiquity. Historians like Robert G. Hoyland and A.S. Tritton have noted that the scientific and administrative infrastructure was largely maintained by the conquered peoples, specifically the Byzantine Greeks, Coptic Egyptians, and Sassanid Persians. It was not invented, maintained, or supported by Islamic theology or conquerors. Much of the "Islamic" progress in medicine and philosophy was the work of Nestorian Christians and Jews who translated Greek texts into Syriac and then Arabic. The Caliphates inherited a fully functioning Byzantine administrative system. The "progress" was simply the byproduct of an empire sitting atop the world's most sophisticated existing civilizations. The Byzantines preserved the original Greek texts that the Islamic world eventually "discovered." Some historians, most notably Henri Pirenne in his "Pirenne Thesis," argued that the Islamic conquests actually shattered the economic and cultural unity of the Mediterranean, plunging Western Europe into the Dark Ages and forcing the Byzantines into a perpetual "siege mentality" that diverted resources from science to survival. Following this method of thinking, Islam is directly responsible for the Dark Ages instead of the more widely believed collapse of the Roman Empire.
