CW: Military SA occurs the most during deployments
So anyways, fuck that CENTCOM imperialst crusader shithead.
A lot of people are about to be seriously harmed by the US military and that doesn't stop at the enemy or civilizians. This sadly includes the US solders themselves.

The address which Ali Khamemei made on June 4th 2020, shortly after the death of George Floyd, is making the rounds again today.
In his remarks Khamemei says the knee on George Floyd's neck is the same one which has been on Iran's neck and many other countries around the world.

Folks may not know but this but Ali Khamemei's predecessor, Ruhollah Khomeini, showed solidarity with Black Americans and especially Black South Africans.
During the Iranian Revolution Ali Khamemei personally saw to it that all but one of the Black American hostages taken during the crisis were released first.
He specifically cited the history of oppression of Black Americans as his reason for commuting their sentences.

There's so much to be said about the course of battle, but I think most of us hardly know the guy whose death is really sparking this all off.
Despite the internal accusations and reality of the Iranian regime, their spokespeople moved through the leadership class in a way that Americans have clearly forgotten how to do.
In 2017 Ali Khamemei say that Malcolm X was a martyr and took the time in the UN to pay his respects.

One of Ali Khamemei's final remarks to his followers shows how steadfast his belief in the Iranian Revolution remained to the end.
The crowd cries as he states:
"My life has little value. I have a disabled body. I have a little bit of dignity, which you yourself have given me.
I put all of this on the line.
I am ready to sacrifice everything for the sake of this revolution and for IslamMay all this be sacrificed for you."

"You are the owner of this revolution"
Collective mourning for Khamemei continues, social life in Iran continues despite the intense bombing campaign all around this religious spaces.
A crowd was seen crying at the mention of "May Allah protect the Leader" during a sermon. The common refrain, no longer needed reminded the followers of their steadfast leader's brutal assassination.

Young people across Iran continue to demonstrate in support of the Iranian government's right to defend it's people and to avenge Ali Khamemei's death.
YES even the Iranians who don't ware hijabs say they want the country to continue on the path of the Iranian Revolution.
-
And because my comments have been full of this Hijab commentary for the past year I wanna remind folks where Khamemei stood on the issue.
According to Ali Khamemei wearing a Hajib or not, or wearing it well vs badly was NOT a sign of being Anti-Revolutionary or against the state.
It was a simple personal choice to him, he reminded his followers that they are talking about their daughters and sisters and that they should respect this simple fashion choices.

The more I read about Ali Khamemei the more it really seems like regardless of his politics earlier in life he seems like a moderate who many westerners would expect leaders to be able to negotiate with.
He's a revolutionary, no doubt, and after seeing how the US elites felt after Luigi I can well see why they were terrified of Khamemei and the extremely militarily diligent regime he oversaw.
But at this point, he's just giving Luigi in old age grandpa vibes you know.

I keep looking at Iranian media and am just in shock with how organized their government is despite an assassination and thousands of US bombings in only a few days.
Meanwhile the Americans government is a total clusterfuck.
There is NO support right now for US citizens stranded in West Asia.
Many commercial airports are closed and the US really should be operating its own flights to get stranded citizens out.

While I rag on the Trump admin I know for a fact Democrats would have started this war too, they just would have kept the government customer service office open while doing so.
How do I know Dems would attack Iran?
Bc Hillary Clinton repeatedly said she WOULD no matter the stage of development be willing to attack Iran if she were in power.
There's been debate if that remark is out of context but I think she meant it.
Video of Clinton on Iran Taken Out of Context - FactCheck.org
An out-of-context clip from a 2008 interview with then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is circulating on Facebook. It shows her saying the U.S. "will attack Iran" if she becomes president. But she was responding to a question about a hypothetical nuclear attack by Iran on Israel.

Iranians are continuing to take to the internet to explain how the regime under both Ali Khamemei & Ruhollah Khomeini resisted the urge for Iran to develop its own chemical weapons during the war with Iraq.
Iraq, with the backing of the West, committed countless war crimes gassing civilians.
EVEN during those conditions Khomeini & Khamemei remained steadfast AGAINST developing and deploying weapons of mass destruction.

DEVELOPING - Overnight Iranians posted this video of what the claim is an F15 of F35 shortly after it was hit by antiair fire. Two pilots can -just- be seen parachuting into the mountains near Tehran.
The problem for Israel+US with enacting the "Dahiya doctrine" is that they simply do not have air superiority yet.
According to Iranina reports they claim to have shot down around 30 US+Israeli attack drones like the MQ-9 Predator in addition to this manned jet.

Israeli OSINT accounts are already accepting the report as likely true but are claiming it was an American pilot shotdown and not an Israeli.
We don't have solid confirmation either way just yet, to my eyes it doesn't look like any jet Iran operates but there's still a chance it could turn out to be an Iranian jet which was shotdown.
Will update as I hear more.

In Lebanon Hezbollah has started releasing a stream of professionally edited videos depicting precision strikes on invading Israeli troops.
This video shows the defenders of Lebanon hitting an Israeli Merkava tank with a missile from position kilometers away.

Hezbollah has been releasing extensive drone footage from their planning of strikes.
They regularly fly drones over Israeli installations to collect intelligence for missile strikes and videos like this from years ago still seem to be providing Hezbollah critical intelligence.
Israel and the US down play the fact that decapitating Hezbollah's leadership and even invading Lebanon has had little to no effect on the combat readiness.
