Couldn't resist: can Cap and the boys destroy the entire Iranian Navy as they try to shut the Strait of Hormuz? A bit of DCS for you all:
That would be a very good outcome. FWIW oil and gold aren't jumping into the Stratosphere as much as you think they would in Monday's trading so there's that.
Sypkan "yep, and I'd add the ridiculously quick - and largely unexpected - fall of syria opened up an empty highway so to speak"
If you look at how Israel has responded since Oct 7 attacks, they've gone after one threat at a time, Hamas, then Hezbollah & it's infrastructure - then Syria fell and they took the Golan Heights and got rid of Syrian AA systems which cleared a path for their planes to take on Iran as they are doing. Pre-WW2, 1948, 1967, 1973, invasion of Lebanon - they do it again and again.
Pulled a tweet from the account you posted, vj. This is taking the piss on steroids.

"Hi Andy, the wording was a bit muddled after I cut and pasted the paragraph - what I am trying to say is the Iron Dome, like the Iranian AA, has proven to be less than effective. I read stats that it was only getting about 90% of incoming missiles; and conjecture that at some point they will run out of missiles, with 1000+ Iranian missiles left. "
I think the Iron Dome is for defending against short range missiles from neighbouring countries/enemies.
Missiles from further away, such as from Iran, are defended against with a different defense system.

Are you insane?
Have you actually lost your mind to post this?
Fair enough, your opinion.
TBB's always been an astute observer. Says it as he sees it and i'll back him all the way. Doesn't have a bad bone in his typing fingers!! If it sounds offensive, it's possibly because it's an uncomfortable truth. I agree wholly with his above post.
;)
… & meanwhile, back in the land of trump dump ;);)
I mean, maybe you're taking the piss? Surely this is you taking the piss cos you always seemed pretty balanced.
If not, i put this to you.
At the most fundamental level, in black and white,
the US has broken the law.
There's a reason, many reasons the law exists.
I'd love to hear your reasoning to justify that on this occassion, it was ok to break the law, as it now allows a free for all and removes any moral high ground that ever existed with the US and any nations that support it (fucken Albo).
And if you're taking the piss, ya got me....well done. Apologies!

Ok! Solved the Mystery of Why US bombed Iran's Nuke Sites.
From 2006 Iran was sanctioned...
So with Russia's help they repurposed their homegrown Nuke / Space Industries.
Since 2006 There are 2 main worthy peaceful Goals which ride IAEA Peacetime limitations.
Neither are Weapons orientated but equally reward a weapons spin off if required...either / either!
During this 20 year period US & Israel wish to limit Iran's Nuke Tech ability by flagging weapons grade.
Ya see...Iran are profiteering from sanctions by refocusing Nuke tech as a World Health exemption.
(Pause)
Repeat : 60% enrichment can only produce bombs...100% WRONG!
*(Isfahan)
Iran's 60% enrichment enables them to produce over 80 Radiopharmaceuticals to boss global health market!
https://wanaen.com/iran-surpasses-70-locally-produced-radiopharmaceutic…
Major Nuke / Pharma companies are pissed & ask Trump & Bibi to rid Big Pharma competition...Got it!
That's the main reason US bombed [ Isfahan ] ( To knock out World's best Med Scanning producer...)
Major Iran upscale industry...smashed to bits...knock out Iran's exempted honest income base! (Destroy!)
Biggest Nuke Pharmas Bayer / GE / Seimens are wanking over Trump's 50% Global X Ray / Scan Tariff.
World's wealthy queue longer for fuel or X Ray > so pay longer to die wondering...like tbb'n'all are now!
*(Arak) < cools (Natanz) enriches further to 83.7% to produce Plutonium U-235 at Fordow...
IAEA + Israel + Trump + Bibi + Albo : (Altogether!) Can only be for weapons purpose...Kill them...Now!
(World's biggest never ending robot Liars! Why!)
Coz there is yet another reason that Iran enriches & uses Plutonium [ U-235 ]
Tip : It ain't Weapons + It's no longer Heart Pacemakers...(Ok! What then tbb...shh!)
Spacecraft!
Nope! Not to Power their Ballistic Missile Rocket Launches but to power their High Tech Satellites.
When ya on the darkside & all alone & need a boost...just like yer pet pacemaker...it keeps ya warm!
https://www.businessinsider.com/nuclear-powered-satellites-space-2016-3
Any nation that can pilot & plot their Satellites in Attack / Defence mode is a danger to USA / Israel.
Ya see...Iran can program lifelong Plutonium Sats to direct anything anytime to reach USA...if they desire!
In other words...they don't need IAEA as they now pilot stars that shine down upon Israel & USA.
So why the Hurry...why take them Nuke Plants out now & Why did Iran clear out their Nuke gear...
Well ya see...just as USA / Russia / Oz are shifting Rockets to the Equator so too are Iran...on the move!
US were racing to take out whatever remnants that Iran were dawdling to clear...
Crew might recall this recent explosion & now perhaps see the bigger picture...
Yes! Iran do occasionally use Ballistic Missiles & similar Fuel for their Rocket Launches...
Watch what happens to this Fuel Load...crew will recall this recent Iran Port Explosion.

Funny how he starts a war just as those files popped their ugly head up again.
Would he go so far as to push the red button to suppress those files??
Rat up a drainpipe....fight til you die kinda scenario i'm sussing.
Good work
see latest comments I made about precious metals ..prices..
somewhere in these forums
..yr quote spot on..
Now do u know how to send a pic to swellnet ?
Reading the headline of the reprisal attack being very weak on Qatar and the language of the Don, maybe that theory above could be correct??
Off ramp for both parties and hopefully will cool things down.
My understanding is that they have broken both international law, the very law that the USA were the main architects in developing after WW2 with the UN as well as their own national law.
Another nail in the so called world based order and international law which they developed. They might have a tactical win here, but down the track I fear this will come back to bite the West.
Is it now ok for China to bomb one of our ports as we might have nuclear subs which could threaten them one day??
Maybe unrealistic, but precedent has been set.
Mahmoud Khalil. Out of detention and straight back into it. Boss behaviour.
Courage!
Does the Don really believe that terrorists who support the Iran regime will just peacefully surrender to his will ?
Probably not Supa, but reckon no. 1 priority for Iranian regime is staying in power. Full scale war with US will likely not have that outcome so may settle things down re US bases, and just keep lobbing missiles into Israel until those 2 parties can come to cease fire.
Israel have obviously more fire power, but they are copping missiles and destruction more than ever in their history from what I can see.
Will dual passport holders stay in Israel, will businesses invest??
How long can that go on?
From my understanding, Israel and the US cannot take out all Iran's missile capabilities without so called boots on the ground, and cannot see that happening (lots of dead seppos in that scenario), so how long do the 2 nations keep playing missile ping pong??
Propaganda on both sides, so what to believe?
From Guardian....
President Trump claims a ceasefire between Israel and Iran has been agreed to
In a post on Truth Social, president Trump claims a 12-hr ceasefire between Israel and Iran has been reached. The ceasefire, he says, will begin in 6 hours.
He writes:
CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED!
Officially, Iran will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World. During each CEASEFIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL. On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, “THE 12 DAY WAR.” This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!”
;)
…flip floppin god lovin peace bombin gollumin
Israel censoring what can and can’t be reported as far as damage to infrastructure. Maybe the report I read on 1/2 trillion $ was true , maybe not , who really knows ? Going to cost the US taxpayers no matter how much it is . https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06-22/what-israel-will-and-won-t-let-t…
Twump only needs to UP the sanctions on Russian OIL and GAS,that will cripple Kremlin income.The Ukrainians will do the rest.
lol, its SLEEZY!
I'm led to believe that Russia has a manufacturing plant for Shahid drones but it may just be an assembly plant?...Also read that some components are strictly Iranian made.SO, if Israel has stopped production(??? I hope so)then it benefits Israel and Ukraine because a big majority of the attacks on civilian infrastructure by Russia is via Shahids.
This take on it suggests that this vanity project for Trump will lead to the dissolution of the rules-based order in place since WW2. Crazy days.
https://alastaircampbell.org/2025/06/418-trump-bombs-iran-what-happens-…
Israhell isn't transparent on anything ever. And so it goes.
Wake up and conflict has become pythonesque.
“CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE!” Trump exclaimed on his Truth Social site. “It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED!”
Trump said that Iran will start the ceasefire “and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World,” Trump continued. “During each CEASEFIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL. On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, “THE 12 DAY WAR.” This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!”

very monty morning...
his posts really are just weird and funny
unless you hate the guy...
then they just be irking and enraging
truly hard to believe that this is the guy running the show
but john lyons on abc (a hater) is calling a major win
we will see...
… "I don't like to lie, no. I don't like to lie, no. It's something that -- it's not something that I would like to be doing," Trump said.
;)
lying is his strength
both in blowing wind up bums and keeping people guessing...
the trick is to know when he's lying and when he's 'lying'
which is only really difficult if he's got you all deranged and stuff... which is over half the world...
'strong and decisive' is how john lyons described this 'win'
which is fine, when you get get it right
if you get it right...
…they’re eating the cats
- get get …if ;)
seems albo is getting sidelined to meet the big guy...
poor anthony
seems the big fat elephant doesn't forget past indiscretions...
Yep, couldn't trust Trump as far as you could throw him.
However, hopefully this will hold, he has had and will continue to get major blow back from the MAGA no war crowd if it flares up.
Is AIPAC happy?
Hopefully a peaceful solution is at hand.
Who knows??
I'm guessing Israel may be keen for end of hostilities as they have been bombed pretty bad by look of it.
Saying that if it settles down, won't Bibi being looking at jail time?
What a shit show!
Truth Social for Trump is like KCNA is for the DPRK.
Latest headlines "Strikes continue despite ceasefire announcement" and "Iran says ‘no agreement’ on ceasefire" suggest more hot air emanating than reality.
Ah yes. sypkosis knows when Trump is lying. The human polygraph is in our midst, ya'll. Bow down.
just like CNN is for the deranged...
