Shouldn’t be a surprise.

China supports Iran's military operations against US bases by providing intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) data, including tracking US assets.

China-linked firms use artificial intelligence (AI) and satellites to analyze US base activity for Iran, while also supplying dual-use technologies, such as navigation system components, rocket fuel ingredients, and radar systems to enhance Iran's targeting accuracy.

Not happy that this Proxy War in Iran is allowing China to attack US bases. It’s a convenient workaround for a Global superpower to attack a nuclear armed foe.

No, I'm just surprised we still see Iran existing at all.

I was surprised that Iran still had so many missiles left at this point too. Then I realized that a missile can’t be launched without a launcher. We have taken out a large chunk of the of the mobile launchers. They can’t launch very many at once. So it actually helps them conserve. As long as they can keep the stockpile they have hidden or buried deep enough underground to protect them from air stiles then they could be shooting missiles for a good while before they run out as long as they can keep a few launchers in operation.

Hey look if you want to disagree with the Iran war then ok that’s fair. What you can’t do is say that Iran didn’t attack us so we had no right to attack them. That dog won’t hunt. Iran has attacked us by proxy for decades.

The United States. America. Which means the American people or American citizens.

Ok. But China’s support for Iran is different than US support for Ukraine in a couple of different ways.

1. No pressure for Iran to surrender ( as I mentioned previously).

2. If we had troops on the ground in Iran it would be more similar.

3. Or if Ukraine was attacking Russian bases in other countries with US help it would be more similar.

Did not attack us?

Where the frick have you been for the last 47 years?

As someone who was old enough to remember seeing our citizenry paraded around as hostages in Iran you are 100% full of shite.

And there are hundreds of other examples over the years...

The great powers of the world have been playing games like this against each other for centuries. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

They have killed plenty of USA military and intelligence agency members via proxy. They would kill many more if they had the capability to do so.

Iran is fully aligned with Russia and China. Breaking that alliance and taking control of the global oil markets was objective 1b in the Iranian Excursion.

Yesterday Iran launched 2 missiles at Israel and 2 drones.

None of them landed. What are you talking about?
