War in the Middle East

Started by: Tommy Two Stroke (15413)

It is looking like it is all kicking off in the Middle East, Iran is attacking Israel, so Israel will obviously retaliate against Iran, but will the Americans get involved ?

He might not have any stairs, he might live in a bungalow or a flat.

I'm sure Peter Israel said he has a safe room. A reinforced security room.
No doubt he'll let you know

Israel shot the drones, missiles etc down, Iran is humiliated, so what are those Ayatommies in Iran going to do now, because militarily Iran couldn't knock the skin off a rice pudding, they can only fight wars by proxy, using terrorists.

It was just a warning shot from Iran, Tommy. Thats all. In retaliation to Israels strike that killed Iranian people
Everybody knows that Iran have a lot more dangerous military artillery at their disposal if they decide to use it.
And I think you'll find that it was the UK, Jordan and the Americans who shot down the majority of the drones

Even for yoo, that is quite a lot of crap to come out with in just one post

I think Cheshirecat, was right. It's said that the attack was just a 'show of strength'.
If you ask me, they'd've been better off sending in the Boy's Brigate. It would've cost less!
As Chesh. said, " it was the UK, Jordan and the Americans who shot down the majority of the drones", although Joe Biden claims it was done by "America". What does he know?

Iran are believed to have a stock of nuclear warheads. Two could destroy Israel and it's immediate surroundings.

Well that was close to answer your questions about who shot what down?? Israel shot down what was over it's territory the rest was shot down
by U.K. and France The USS Arleigh Burke and USS Carney, operating in the eastern Mediterranean Sea, engaged in and destroyed between four and six Iranian ballistic missiles while U.S. aircraft in the region shot down more than 70 drones headed toward Israel. senior defense official noted the majority of the interceptions were made by Israel's Arrow Two and Arrow Three systems. U.S. Army Patriot missile battery shut down one ballistic missile in the vicinity of Erbil, Iraq and then you had Jordon and Saudi Arabia who also had a hand involved but because of the high number of Palestine's living in Jordon it's being kept out of the news for now..... can we now go back to slagging off the Torys

Thanks for the info Peter. I Just one question, What next do you think?

Replied: 14th Apr 2024 at 21:29

Posted by: peter israel (2126) 

first mate hopefully that's it. I believe the Iranians didn't use the best of the best missiles and they knew most would be shot down before they reached where they wanted them to go, but they had to retaliate. On the other hand, they were surprised by who came to the aid of Israel

Joe Biden tells Israel Prime Minister, "the US will not participate in any counter-strike against Taiwan".

consequences!!! At this time of year Passover Israel have 100,000,s of people traveling to and from for the holiday! But this year most airlines have canceled flights in and out of the country.... people not happy
Israelis are very big on traveling with most taking 3 to 4 trips out side the country a year because hotels are so expenses here ... average price for hotel in Israel for 7 nights at Passover 1300 pound!! for that price you can fly + hotel outside the country
