Quote:Israel announced that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' intelligence chief Brig. Gen. Majid Khademi was killed in a precision strike, with an Israeli official noting that Quds Force’s special operations commander Asghar Bagheri was eliminated at the same time.

In a statement posted on X, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed Khademi's killing, accusing him of helping advance terrorist attacks abroad and overseeing surveillance of Iranian civilians as part of the regime’s crackdown on domestic protests.

"Khademi wasn’t just any figure, he was effectively No. 2 within the IRGC, one of the few senior commanders who managed to survive multiple waves of Israeli and American targeting over the past year — until now," a senior Israeli official told Fox News. "He kept moving, relocating, but ultimately he was hunted down and eliminated.

Reports are coming out of Iran today that Iranians blocked roads around where the US pilot was hiding to prevent the IRGC from getting to him.

If things were going as well as we are being told, there would be no weapons left in Iran. We keep hearing we’ve eliminated this or that capacity, but none of it has been true.

Meanwhile, for the 30th year straight we are hearing how Iran was days or weeks from a nuclear weapon lol. It’s the drum that never stops beating…

Been 2 weeks away since the 90's, and desperately trying to get them the whole time, yet somehow never got them. Time must operate differently there. Maybe it's 2 weeks away on a cosmic calendar.

Funny, we never hear you use that logic with the Russian War in Ukraine which recenty entered year 5.

Reading Bonds and Todors posts is like hearing Cnn. I wonder whose side they're on?

Damn, maybe I need to turn on CNN if they are actually that based! Something tells me though you are wrong. I listen to platforms that have left and right criticisms of this war similar to mine and Todor, but they ain't CNN.

I'm convinced that war makes some people retarded.

Quote:Two Qatari vessels carrying liquefied natural gas (LNG) have been forced to abandon an attempt to exit the Strait of Hormuz in what would have been the first export of Qatari LNG in more than a month.

The Al Daayen and the Rasheeda aborted their attempt to transit the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, with ship-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg revealing they U-turned away from the strait after earlier heading eastward.

The Al Daayen is still signaling that China, Qatar’s largest LNG buyer, is its next destination, though destinations are not final since these tankers can change their indicated port of call at any time.

Quote:Average passage through the waterway has plummeted to 5–7 ships per day, a 95% decrease from the pre-war average of roughly 130–160 vessels. Nearly three quarters of ships that have crossed since the blockade began are owned by Iran or its shadow fleet. Most non-Iranian vessels allowed through are linked to China, accounting for about 10% of recent traffic. Select tankers from India, Pakistan, and Greece have also been granted passage following specific negotiations. On Thursday, a container ship owned by the French group CMA CGM became the first Western-linked vessel to pass through the Strait since the Middle East conflict began in late February while a Japanese-owned LNG carrier successfully transited the strait on Friday after negotiations with the Tehran authorities.

Iranian missile and drone strikes in March significantly damaged Qatar’s Ras Laffan export facility, knocking out roughly 17% of its capacity. QatarEnergy has declared force majeure on several long-term LNG supply contracts, with some repairs on damaged infrastructure estimated to take up to five years. The closure has halted about 20% of the world’s daily LNG flows, driving European and Asian gas prices to multi-year highs.

I feel like it would not take much to topple this IRGC led government at this point. lol---I swear, if the CIA was a good as Tudor says they are, you'd think now would be the time to whip up one of those CIA "just add water" instant revolutions.

Like I said in the other thread, shutting down refineries would help more than blowing up power plants.

Sending their kids back to Iran from the U.S. (and Europe) may compel them to negotiate in good faith.
