Iran

In Israel all citizens use the bomb shelters. Jews, Muslims, Christians, atheists, everyone.

If you mean Gaza, do they have shelters or are they too busy building rockets to attack Israel and building underground tunnels?

So a directed energy interceptor. Very cool, if operational.

Yes, it was used in action for the first time today. Success!

She has a good point.

The most unforgivable, outrageous and bizarre moment of the day occurred when Blair, for some inexplicable reason, volunteered the following revelation about his all-important meeting with George W Bush in Crawford, Texas, back in April 2002:

"As I recall that discussion, it was less to do with specifics about what we were going to do on Iraq or, indeed, the Middle East, because the Israel issue was a big, big issue at the time. I think, in fact, I remember, actually, there may have been conversations that we had even with Israelis, the two of us, whilst we were there. So that was a major part of all this."


Pressure from Israel and the Lobby was not the only factor behind the decision to attack Iraq in March 2003, but it was critical. Some Americans believe that this was a war for oil, but there is hardly any direct evidence to support this claim. Instead, the war was motivated in good part by a desire to make Israel more secure. According to Philip Zelikow, a former member of the president’s Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board, the executive director of the 9/11 Commission, and now a counsellor to Condoleezza Rice, the “real threat” from Iraq was not a threat to the United States.

The “unstated threat” was the “threat against Israel”, Zelikow told an audience at the University of Virginia in September 2002. “The American government,” he added, “doesn’t want to lean too hard on it rhetorically, because it is not a popular sell.”

On 16 August 2002, 11 days before Dick Cheney kicked off the campaign for war with a hardline speech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Washington Post reported that “Israel is urging US officials not to delay a military strike against Iraq’s Saddam Hussein”. By this point, according to Sharon, strategic co-ordination between Israel and the US had reached “unprecedented dimensions”, and Israeli intelligence officials had given Washington a variety of alarming reports about Iraq’s WMD programmes.

As one retired Israeli general later put it, “Israeli intelligence was a full partner to the picture presented by American and British intelligence regarding Iraq’s non-conventional capabilities.”

Israeli leaders were deeply distressed when Bush decided to seek Security Council authorisation for war, and even more worried when Saddam agreed to let UN inspectors back in. “The campaign against Saddam Hussein is a must,” Shimon Peres told reporters in September 2002. “Inspections and inspectors are good for decent people, but dishonest people can overcome easily inspections and inspectors.”...

At the same time, Ehud Barak wrote a New York Times op-ed warning that “the greatest risk now lies in inaction”. His predecessor as prime minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, published a similar piece in the Wall Street Journal, entitled: “The Case for Toppling Saddam”. “Today nothing less than dismantling his regime will do,” he declared. “I believe I speak for the overwhelming majority of Israelis in supporting a pre-emptive strike against Saddam’s regime.” Or as Ha’aretz reported in February 2003, “the military and political leadership yearns for war in Iraq”.

What role did Israel play in the run-up to the Iraq war?

Blair, Bush, Chilcot and the Israelis.

No. The main reason is to protect Israel from Iran's missiles. The Google AI lays it out clearly. Our government is totally owned by Israel which is why we're prioritizing protecting the citizens of Israel rather than US servicemen stationed in the Gulf.

America is an occupied nation.

If the Ford is there to protect Israel why hasn't it been doing it? No reports of the US ships shooting down missiles over Israel.

You do know the Ford carrier group isn't sitting in port or just off shore but steaming around the Eastern Med likely 75 to 100 miles plus off shore.

using the planes we sold them when we liked them?

In other words, target practice.

Question:

Has anyone considered what percentage of the population actually favored the regime? Easy for us to say small but I doubt that's the case. These people have been brainwashed. This shat ain't anywhere near over or clean

The Iranian people created the regime with a popular uprising in 1979. I'm sure its a very large percentage of the country even if the ruling party isn't that popular. Americans hate our government if you look at polls but how many of us would support an uprising? Very small percentage.

If the Iranian government was extremely hated they would have been toppled already.

 

[CagleMtnVol]

We're literally defending a child pedophile ring involving politicians and celebrities because it implicates Israel. If that does tell you the amount of control they have over entire government nothing else will.

If the Epstein files haven't woken you on who really controls this country nothing will for us goyim.

To Jew-haters, when a Jew does something positive their Jewishness is irrelevant to what they did, but when a Jew does something negative their Jewishness is essential to what they did.

 

[MAD]

This same strategy is happening somewhere else to gain the world’s sympathy, I just can’t remember where

 

[ETV]

agree not being over or clean but skeptical there was anything approaching widespread support for the regime - particularly after they murdered 30K citizens for protesting

30k? Maybe within the last 30 days only. I can't imagine what the number is for all of those executed since the regime took over in '79.

 

[SquirrelOrange3]

The squirrel and D4H want us all to believe that all Muslims & Arabs hate all Israelis.

I've never said anything of the such, especially with Arab Muslims and Zionists having so much camaraderie and so much in common.

Right here -

Google AI says this when asked how advanced the missile defense system is on the USS Gerald Ford: Google Search

The USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) features the most advanced self-defense and sensor suite ever integrated into a U.S. aircraft carrier. Its missile defense capabilities are designed as a layered, automated "shield" capable of neutralizing high-speed cruise missiles and drones.

So once again exactly how was I wrong?

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

You clearly don't know my comments on Epstein

Well then please educate me. Why is our government hiding the 3 million files from 1999-2001 in the Epstein files? What could they possibly not want us to know that occurred during that time span?

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

The world is a better place without people who lie about the colleges they attend

American soldiers dying versus where someone went to college. Yeah those don't seem to be on the same level of seriousness.

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

So you gonna tell us more about how the Ford has the most advanced anti-missile technology in the US Navy, or nah?

You know you can ask your favorite AI model anything and it'll give you a pretty accurate answer. Here what Google says about the USS Gerald Ford's missile defense capabilities: Google Search

The USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) features the most advanced integrated self-defense suite in the U.S. Navy, centered on a new digital "bubble" of protection. As of early 2026, it is currently deployed as a critical defensive shield in the Middle East.

Anymore questions?

These are the most heinous people imaginable. I feel sorry for those Thai nationals.

Cause nothing can completely stop intercontinental ballistic missiles. What we're doing is lessening the damage Israel could be facing. As usual we goyim are being sacrificed for the betterment of the Israelis.

Bro nobody hates yall. We just don't want to die for yall anymore. Leave America alone and go fight the Muslims by yourself. If you did that we would even cheer you on.

We just want America to be for Americans only. Not for the betterment of Israel.

 

[CagleMtnVol]

Seriously! Looks like two good shoots at least.

Edit: There are pics that both the pilot & WSO made it to the ground safely.

Right here (again) -

The USS Gerald Ford has the most sophisticated anti-missile technology in our entire navy.

The USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) features the most advanced self-defense and sensor suite ever integrated into a U.S. aircraft carrier.

So once again exactly how was I wrong?

Right there above where you incorrectly equate “US Carrier” with “our entire navy”.

And the Ford’s self-defense sensor suite is for…. “self-defense”. They don’t intercept missiles destined for other targets.

SM-2 & SM-3 are what the US Navy intercepts threats such as ballistic missiles with - US Carriers don’t have the VLS cells required to launch them. They don’t carry them.

Yes. When are you going to stop posting AI, or at least misinterpreting its answers?

It's to protect the ship. It's not an offensive weapon.
Like I posted earlier it's like a 100 miles out in the Med and not near shore.
