  • Trump signals escalation in Israel-Iran conflict as he leaves G7 summit early

    From cnbc.com

    U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday said his early departure from the Group of Seven summit was owed to “much bigger” things than planning a ceasefire between Tel Aviv and Tehran, after urging people to “immediately evacuate Tehran.” The conflict also prompted a joint statement from G7 leaders, affirming support for Israel, while calling for a resolution to the escalating tensions in the Middle East. “We affirm that Israel has a right to defend itself. We reiterate our support for the security of Israel,” G7 leaders said in a joint statement focused on the Middle East conflict. The group also condemned ... (full story)

Finally israel has to be destroyed by Pakistan. World will see that day... Israel, Tabliban, Moodi are Evils...
I am sorry to disappoint you but Israel would be too overwhelming, for both Iran & Pakistan - the truth is, even if they merged up and fought against Israel, Israel would still end up victorious.

Frankly, I would even bet that Israel would win in the following: IL v. Iran & Pakistan & Turkey

I would love to watch this, pure cinema.

Anyways, hopefully what you said is true and Pakistan will get involved

I don't think Iran had anything to do with Trump leaving the G7 meeting. What DID motivate him to leave was the fact that Zelenski was on his way, and he was too Chicken to be put in a position where he'd have to be confronted by him with the rest of the G7 standing tall behind him (Zelenski). Trump would rather eat a rare steak than face Zelenski right now.

Israel could be overwhelmed in a massive, coordinated ground attack from all of its Muslim neighbors, who hate it. But that'll never happen as long as the USA is its partner.

This isn’t Trump escalating anything , it’s classic Trump doing his heavyweight act .

His MO doesn’t change irrespective of what he’s dealing with . Some may say , “ gung ho “ , others might use “ calculated “ , either way - in this instance I wish him good luck for the sake of Iranians and Israelis .

{quote} Seems like you need to do a lot of research in that area. If Iran launched every ballistic missile left (should be something around 1.000-1.500 by now) in its arsenal, Israel would look like Gaza does because interceptor missiles like the Tamir or Stunner aren't unlimited, and they're definitely not cheap. Of course they won't do that for several reasons: 1- They can't run out of ballistics (their main - and only?- force). 2- Israel has nuclear warheads so it would turn into mutual annihilation. 3- They fear direct US retaliation. So no,...
They think it’s the Wild West !

Lots of John Wayne characters.

So no, this isn't some Hollywood fantasy where Israel steamrolls a coalition of nations. The real world balance is far more fragile and dangerous.

What you said is very important.
Israel KNOWS this, and hopefully we're all aware of the Elite-Intelligence Israel has, especially cooperated with US-Led Intelligence, they know almost always exactly where these missiles are coming from, and to tell you the truth- they've destroyed 1/3 of their Ballistic Missile Launchers so far, using this intelligence.
Now, if in a hypotethical scenerio Iran would launch (try to..) all it's ballistic missiles on Israel, they would 100% know about it, 100%. It would require A LOT of Ballistic Missile Launchers.
The thing is, they used to throw around 50-70 Ballistic Missiles at once, and now they barely throw 4-5 at once, based on reports it's because Israel's intelligence destroyes them before it even launches, so they launch these 4-5 missiles and run away.

Iran is completly humiliated at this point, and it's best case scenerio, if somehow (probably not..) Israel agrees to it, would be a ceasefire with special conditions led by Israel.

As you said, Missiles is the only course of direct action they can take, and they're running out of missiles and launchers.

I doubt Trump would let this war last for more than 2-3 weeks, if it prolongs this far, he'll probably intervene to bring the 'final blow' - we've already seen what happens when you let Israel have a war for a long time (Gaza) and it didn't look good.

Yep, I think you described the actual situation quite well (mine was just a hypothetical case).
And yes, the US "negotiation" team is on the move, already mobilizing bombers and some fighters, hopefully we'll see an end to this nonsense soon enough.

He had to leave fast. He is probably in a hurry to have another cozy chat with his best friend and inform him about what the others are up to there.

Cringe fan fiction you wrote there. I’m sure he’s scared of the 3 foot tall begger. Do you think Zelenskyy wore his thick heel lifts for the big meeting?
