Waiting for Iran to strike back at Israel thread

[Colonel Frank Grimes]

You really are a waste of oxygen and pathetic excuse of a lifeform, aren't ya?

What I am is well informed. Every time you tangle with me I slap you upside the head with facts, and your response is always an emotional tirade. I'm glad you skipped pretending not to be stupid and have gone straight to the emotional tirade instead of wasting my time.

Now go to the corner and be quiet. Learn not to speak when you have nothing intelligent to say, which in your case means a life as a mute.

I listened to the first 5 minutes of your video and what is being said is the belief of many familiar with the region.



I hope Iran does not take the bait. Enough Americans (and people in the region) have died because of Israel.

I don’t expect Iran to do any serious shit.

They couldn’t do shit when the US killed Qasem Soleimani.

They also sold out Hamas, when shit got serious.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards seize Israeli-affiliated ship

State news agency says MSC Aries was taken in strait of Hormuz and is being transferred to Iran’s territorial waters

A vessel has been seized by Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guards in the strait of Hormuz, 50 nautical miles off the coast of the United Arab Emirates.

Commandos dropped from a helicopter on to an Israeli-affiliated container ship, the Portuguese-flagged MSC Aries, and Iran’s state news agency said the vessel was being transferred to Iran’s territorial waters.

It said the special forces unit of the guards’ navy carried out the attack on the container ship, which is associated with the London-based Zodiac Maritime ship management company, part of Israeli billionaire Eyal Ofer’s Zodiac Group.

Geneva-based MSC later acknowledged the seizure and said 25 crew had been aboard the vessel.

The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) agency said in a post on X that the incident had taken place north-east of Fujairah.

UKMTO had earlier said: “Vessel reported to have been seized by regional authorities. Vessels are advised to transit with caution and report any suspicious activity to UKMTO.”

The statement followed shortly after an initial report that the vessel had been “boarded”.

The strait of Hormuz lies between the Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, with Iran to the north. It is one of the world’s most strategically important shipping locations, providing the only sea passage from the Gulf to the open ocean.

The seizure comes amid escalating tensions in the region, with the US president, Joe Biden, saying he expected an Iranian attack on Israel “sooner rather than later”.

“We are devoted to the defence of Israel. We will support Israel. We will help defend Israel, and Iran will not succeed,” Biden told reporters on Friday.

Earlier the White House national security spokesperson, John Kirby, had warned that the threat of a significant Iranian attack on Israel remained “viable” despite Washington-led efforts, including calls to Tehran from the UK and Germany, to deter a serious escalation in the conflict in the Middle East.

The German airline Lufthansa said on Friday its planes would no longer use Iranian airspace and extended its suspension of flights to and from Tehran until Thursday.

Qantas has paused its direct flights from Perth to London because the 17-and-a-half-hour journey is possible only by using Iranian airspace.

Iran has threatened reprisals against Israel for a strike on the Iranian consulate in Syria on 1 April, in which seven members of the Revolutionary Guards, including two generals, were killed, sparking fears that an already volatile situation in the Middle East could quickly spiral further.

IRGC seizes Israel-linked container ship in Strait of Hormuz



The special naval forces of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) have seized Israel-linked MSC Aries container ship near the Strait of Hormuz, official news agency IRNA reports.

The ship was impounded by the Sepah Navy Special Force (SNSF) in a heliborne operation and rappelling of forces on the ship's deck, the agency said Saturday.

"The ship has now been directed towards the territorial waters of our country," IRNA said.

The Portuguese-flagged ship, operated by Zodiac Maritime, is owned by Israeli real estate, energy, technology and shipping magnate Eyal Ofer, it added.

Zodiac Maritime is part of the Israeli billionaire's Zodiac Group.

A video released by IRGC shows SNSF commandos rappelling down onto a stack of containers sitting on the deck of the vessel.

A crew member on the ship could be heard saying: “Don't come out." He then tells his colleagues to go to the ship's bridge as more commandos come down on the deck.

Reports said the MSC Aries had been last located off Dubai heading toward the Strait of Hormuz on Friday. The ship had reportedly turned off its tracking data, which has been common for Israeli-affiliated ships moving through the region.

The incident comes amid Israel bracing for Iranian retaliation after the regime's April 1 strike on a building in the Iranian embassy compound in the Syrian capital of Damascus, which killed seven IRGC military advisors, including two generals.

I still believe that Iran is not going to do any serious attack against Israel because if they do, Mullah regime is going to be fucked.
