Slow news day involving Iran so far. Wondering if this is the quiet before the storm


India's Prime Minister is visiting Israel today and tomorrow. Also the meeting in Geneva starts/ends around the same time he is supposed to fly back to India. We most likely won't see any kind of strikes take place until he is safely back in in Indian territory. The meeting between him and Israel is big and is about economic and security issues.

If strikes occur this week, I would assume they would not happen until Thursday evening at the earliest in Iran.

Shut off the two most important economic points in the world (Suez and Hormuz nearby) and I promise you no one will have the want after a year.



The other side of that coin is that Iran ships its oil out that way too. A blockade of that would crush their already shaky economy.

The people are already protesting because the economy is shite. Economic collapse is unlikely to change anything.

Have there ever been 24 Raptors deployed at one time before?

Not that I'm aware of. I think last time there only 10 or so in the area during Midnight Hammer.

I’m not a military expert at all, can someone explain if there’s any significance to the ships moving to open sea?

Harder to hit a moving target at sea as opposed to one tied up to a dock I’m guessing. Also, warships don’t do much good during a war when they’re sitting in port.

Basically means they are in an operational posture.
