Iran preparing to attack US bases if US joins Israeli attack, with Iraq first target: Report
- Middle East Eye ^17/06/2025^
Iran has positioned military gear and missiles to strike US bases in the Middle East in preparation should the US join Israel in attacking the Islamic Republic, the New York Times reported on Tuesday.
The US is already defending Israel from Iranian strikes and supplying it with military gear, but is not yet believed to be engaging directly in offensive operations.
Tehran is widely expected to retaliate to any US strikes by attacking American military bases.
The US has thousnads of troops in the Arabian Gulf, but the NYT says Iran is likely to start with attacks on Iraq.
Iraq is home to thousands of fighters who belong to pro-Iranian militias.
Discovered r/newiran today which is basically r/china but for iran. It's filled with the usual whiteboys from Ohio, Zionist Baby Killers and some Iranians celebrating Israel bombing them.
I'm sure most of you know pretty much all the information in Ben Norton's latest video, but I'm really impressed by how clearly he lays out all the historical circumstances leading to this current clusterfuck.
Wasn't Iran Internet shutdown today at midnight? AryJeay still posting on twitter
Itamar Ben Gvir to Amir Bar-Lev: “Why did you provoke Iran?” Bar-Lev responds: “We didn’t realize the power of Iran’s missile capabilities.” .. angry shouting ensues ..
Edit: More Hope - Iranian State Television will brodcast stuff about the downed f-35'S soon.. Edit: IRanian State TV - you wanted to post F-35 downing footage..
This is the country trying to convince the world that Iran is on the cusp of political collapse
I seriously hope people talking about US/Israel going nuclear are only dooming. I can't even begin to fathom the outcome...
Trump might be delivering a big speech from the white house. I don't think it's fully confirmed, just rumors. This could be his GWB moment
Alright I'm late tonight. What's the general situation?
Not Good. Pretty much every asset the United States needs for strikes on Iran is already in place, Trump had a long meeting with the national security council, mainstream sources are reporting that it's all systems go as soon as Trump gives the green light, and it looks very likely that he will. Everybody is holding their breaths.
America is on the verge of entering the conflict, all signs point towards it, US 5th fleet is rumored to be moving out of port
Military censorship on both sides has made things much harder to follow and analyze but Israel and Iran are still hitting each other
Iran's government has taken down all connections to the wider internet except for domestic services, so all Iranian Hexbear comrades are now dark
Missiles over israel, several successful interceptions it seems
