Hotel's that were hit at the start of the night (see earlier post below) are getting hit AGAIN in the middle of the night now.
As far as I can see Iran is hitting many key military and economic targets repeatedly tonight.
These strikes seem designed to underscore the fact that the US air defense is NOT stopping Iran. Nothing is safe now.
This is a game the US & Israel never should have started.
There's rumours circulating that Trump was gifted the Fairmont Palm Hotel which has been repeatedly hit.
But that's incorrect, Trump was gifted a different property (also nearby).
You know, the fact we have to clarify WHICH bribe hotel our shithead president was gifted at a time like this really should be all anyone needs to understand how evil the US is right now.

Jebel Ali Port, which is immediately next to Palm Jameria where the hotels were hit, also suffered significant damage due to drones.
The Jebel Ali Port is a major port call for US Navy vessels and it appears to have suffered significant damage at some of the births.
Strikes continue to rain down on Jordan throughout the night which large volleys of Iranian missiles being shotdown by air defense systems.
Despire very active air defense several direct strikes on US bases are circulating on social media.
Tel Aviv appears to have suffered several direct hits. I've seen increasing unconfirmed chatter of Naval vessels and oil rigs north of Israel reportedly being struck as well.
Iran's volleys continue to hit each country every hour or so.
A lot of these videos tonight appear to becoming directly from US service members. The OSINT community is really kinda amazed, America the TikTok troops at the moment.
This signals to me that things are getting more real than anyone, or at least any average grunt expected.
Throughout the last 40years working at one of these logistical bases was a fairly safe job for US service members compared to vets who found themselves wandering around Iraq & Afghanistan on foot and convoy.
What's that buzzing?
Earlier in the thread I was having trouble telling the new Bahrain 5th fleet strikes from the earlier ones.
But now its very easy... you see the videos now have the buildings from earlier ALREADY in flames.
Several new angles show these follow on attacks clearly.
Per usual, the locals are pretty stoked to see the US military running for cover.
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi was interviewed on NBC news and says "We were not the one's who attacked the Americans" when questioned about their relentlessness drone and missile response.
We still don't know whether Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is alive or dead.
Trump and Israel of course claim he is dead.
Iran has insisted that he's alive.
On Face The Nation this morning Oman's the lead mediator involved in the US / Iran negotiations cried foul.
Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi says that Iran gave Trump everything he wanted on the topic of nuclear enrichment.
Iran agreed to “zero enriched uranium stockpiling.”
But that Trump without warning or reason just launched an attempted decapitation attack at the countries leadership with in hours of this key compromise from Iran.
Professor Dr. Foad Izadi, who works at the University of Tehran, was interviewed by multiple journalists and says regime is an unrealistic goal for the Americans to pursue.
In Dr. Izadi's analysis he says the way that America struck the country AFTER Iran engaged in good faith negotiations sends a message to the next generation of Iranian leaders. He says it doesn't matter what the next leader's politics are, this gurantees Iran will remain anti-American.

DOD consultants basically concluding the same thing I have throughout this thread:
1. Iran IS successfully pealing back the most long range US & Israeli airdefence layers
2. Iran likely plans to deploy even larger missile drone swarm after fully disabling/depleting US air defense.
3. The US has not done nearly enough damage thus far to decapitate Iran
And finally this leaves a big question mark about the current US position, "is this all just a 'shaping; operation?"
BREAKING: Iran confirms the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei
Early death toll information indicates that thousands of people in the gulf region have already been injured as part of this conflict.
A few hundred people have died.
The death toll from the killing of religious and political leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is already outpacing the map in my previous post.
In Karachi, Pakistan US soldiers and local cops killed six protesters demonstrating at the US Consulate there.
Iran's Foreign Minister says the killing of religious figure like Khamenei will galvinize millions all around the world to oppose America.
Imo murdering more grieving civilians is certainly a move
Upon hearing the news millions of Iranians marched as we slept in the west.
They demanded "Death to America" and "Vengence"
As news of the Ayatollah's death spread thousands march in Iraq and attempted to breach the Baghdad "green" zone.
From Karachi to Baghdad the people on the street are making it clear, the US should not have assassinated Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Three hours ago Trump demanded Iran not to retaliate further.

Wait, what's that buzzing?
Drone and missile strikes continued into dawn and have NOT stopped well into the morning.
Video below is from a US base in Qatar on day 2 after suffer fresh missile strikes from Iran.
BREAKING - Iran fires new cluster ballistic missile at Jerusalem.
It's now night time in West Asia and the illegal assassination started by Israel has resulted in Iran continuing to bomb Israel (and other US collaborators) well into the night.
Iran has unveiled a new multi-attack missile which was seen separating into dozens of sub-munitions above the sky's of Jerusalem tonight.
Iran's response is relentless.
Strategic targets all over Israel appear to be getting absolutely ROCKED by the never ending stream of never before seen Iranian cluster missiles.
The US and Israel never should have started this.
My OSINT feeds are absolutely flooded with videos taken by Zionist in Jerusalem who are in utter shock and disbelief at the air defense failures tonight.
The Iron Dome appears to be making a lot of intercepts but with new cluster munitions in the mix its hard to believe this is sustainable for the occupation.
In Tel Aviv an Iranian hypersonic missile was filmed striking targets in the city.
Wait for it, it's extremely FAST. These missiles iron dome has no chance at all to stop.
Only the THAAD has a real chance at stopping these fast moving bombs but its got a $1B price tag with a pretty flaky track record.

There appears to have been a mass shooting in Austin last night by an individual who at least based off of their clothing choices may have been motivated by the war with Iran and the death of the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Texas gunman wore "Property of Allah" hoodie during attack, had photos of Iranian leaders at home, sources say
The man who killed two and wounded 14 also had photos of Iranian leaders in his home, a source said.
In case you missed it the US military confirmed the deaths of three American soldiers. Several other imperial troops suffered injuries.
The US didn't say when or where the casualties happened which would really help understand where the Iraninan's claimed battle damage assessment is over stating things.
Right now Iran is claiming the far more US troops (60-200) are dead or injured. The Iranians claim that they struck a US war ship among other things.
So we'll see what shakes out in a few days
The Iranians today released videos of them successfully shooting down an American MQ-9 Reaper drone.
There's been several videos posted by Iranian civilians of multiple aircraft being shot down around the country.
There continues to be evidence that Iran still has functional anti-air systems and that the US does not have air superiority in the county.
Iran's defenders have not been able to stop every air stike.
Its night time in Iran right now and the US a few hours ago bombed Gandhi Hospital in Tehran sending hundreds of patients, doctors and families scrambling to evacuate loved ones.
Iranians were seen moving infants in incubators to safety.
My current belief is that the Israeli + American attackers were attempting to silence the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) service which is about a 5 minute walk from the hospital.
IRIB was previously bombed by Israel last year killing editor in chief Nima Rajabpour of Islamic Republic of Iran News Network (IRINN)
Around the same time as the media station + hospital being bombed Iranian's report loosing TV service momentarily and seeing zionist+MAGA propaganda video take over the air waves.
Fucking Israeli genocider Benjamin Netanyahu and American Prez Trump had videos roll on Iranian airwaves.
It's unclear right now if this channel take over was directly related to the bombing but demonstrates that significant but distant psyops under way.
I went through and translated the Israeli butcher of Gaza's remarks.
So anyways, if they'll bomb a hospital to silence Iranian's telling their side we'll still listen to what Tehran has to say.
Dr Abdul Majid Hakeem Ilahi in India tonight is one of five spokespeople for Ayatollah Khamenei.
He describes how Ayatollah Khamenei was warned to move to shelter outside of the city, to basements and other shelters that were not open to the public.
He was determined to wait out the US 1st wave just like everyone else.
Religious officials declared Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei a Martyr, some of the ceremony was posted online.
Visitors to the Imam Reza shrine in Mashhad Iran seen fainting and crying as news spread of his Khamenei's official martyrdom.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imam_Reza_shrine
#Mashhad #Iran #ImamReza #Shia #Khamenei #KhameneiAssassination #Martyr
By morning time in Iran countless Iranian leaders and elders went to pay their respects to Martyr Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.
Millions mourned throughout the day. In Yemen alone millions marched. Today the carried a flag for Yemen, Palestine and now Iran.
They shouted chats showing solidarity with the Iranians.
The Israeli's and Americans really better pray that Yemen doesn't join the fight and close Bab al-Mandab Strait.
If the prospect of Yemen possibly joining the war weren't bad enough today it's now confirmed in an official statement that Hezbollah is joining the fight to avenge Ayatollah Imam Sayyed Ali al-Husseini Khamenei.
Hezbollah says this is a warning and that they will hit specific military targets in Haifa.
https://moqawama.org.lb/essaydetails.php?eid=42478&cid=541
#hezbollah #Iran #Israel #KhameneiAssassination #Khamenei #Haifa
Around the time of this statement being posted armed groups were seen firing missiles towards Israel from Lebanon.
It took sometime to get confirmation that these videos were infact of Hezbollah fighters.
The Israeli's have since begun bombing residential areas of Lebanon in response to the news of Hezbollah's declaration of intention to fire missiles targeting Zionist military elements near Haifa.
The situation in Iraq near the "green" zone continues to get more dangerous.
It's the second night of demonstrations and protesters have reportedly been seen shooting randomly towards security forces with small arms.
Security forces responded with a volley of fire, it's not currently clear if or how many demonstrators were injured.
Update - Additional angles appear to show that this was tear gas and flash bangs.
Earlier in the night Iraqi's in Baghdad filmed security forces rolling tanks near the Green Zone.
The US has the world biggest embassy in the zone and it's described as "overlooking the Tigris River". It's not clear the number of US troops in the area but due to the embassy they are some there.
The US still has a few thousand military advisers so the US might be in command of some of the elements.
Aside from the active clashes and missile strikes the propaganda is in full swing.
Iraqi Resistance groups who have been pounding US troops stationed at installations in Erbil Iraq all weekend showed off glimpses their underground base where their store their drones and ballistic missiles.
The video shows their perspective, as they fired missiles this weekend.
Images of Iconic recently martyr leaders line the caves walls.
Not to be out done, Iran published a high quality look at I think just one small section of their underground drone base.
After a tour of the drone storage area Iran stiteches in clips of the drones taking off this weekend.
Iran has shown a TON of these underground bases before. The frequently contain whole ballastic missile systems, boats and fighter jets which literally taxi through the cave before rolling to a runway.
Now most of these videos from Iran and aligned groups are a response IMO to the US's now 30yr approach to showing off their most successful strikes.
I think this particular US military video is interesting.
It shows likely an MQ-9 drone ($16M), probably firing a hellfire missile ($100k) at a fucking F4-Phantom ($3M)
And I want draw our attention back to a certain MQ-9 shotdown over Iran imo the value proposition of this video is not looking good.
It's not just the progressives and left against the Iran war.
The far right shit heads Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes have come out swing against Trump and war with Iran.
Carlson says the only reason we're having this war is that Israel feels this is their LAST chance for a war while there is essentially bipartisan support.
Carlson has read the room and says the tide is turning on Israel, that even being pro-Zionist among US conservatives is waning.
Nick Fuentes on the other hand rails against Trump for not just focusing on ICE raids and tariffs.
Urges: "Don't vote! or Vote Democrat in Nov"
To him Iran is a distraction from the antiimmigrant project and isolationist platform.
He's upset Trump can't find a way to harass migrants and apply tariffs WITHIN the law.
He's upset that Trump will likely have all of his current programs ended by court action.
And lastly he recognizes that Israel is a shitty county to prop up.
More to the point, Fuentes says he can see a viable life as a Democrat if the Trump administration can't be separated from the Republicans.
Which IMO that's a VERY apt assessment on Nick's par, the Dems are effectively just better Republicans.
The Dems STILL are not all aligned on eliminating ICE and many of them probably are OK with tariffs so long as it's not Trump suggesting it.
Nick's literally already sounds like a "we can reform ICE"-democrat ffs.
Oh and I almost forgot, Nick Feuntes is PISSED about the Trump administration burying the Epstein Files.
This sentiment, that Trump is doing everything he can to hide the Epstein files, was echoed by Iranian professor Dr. Izadi last night as well.
I'm starting to here Iranian talking heads refer to the Zionists and Trump administration as the "Epstein Class" meanwhile I'm hearing Americans call this conflict the "Epstein War"

Havyhh2@nullagent ...have to take your word for it....I cannot stomach even looking at that puke for 5 seconds....
LukefromDC@nullagent This is funny as hell: he's a hard Nazi but doesn't like the international war that is a core part of the Nazi program
mosttoast@nullagent I feel conflicted about this. One, it's always good to see disruption in the fash camp, but two: if he actually convinces a lot of people, it shows he has a certain anount of sway, and like a stopped clock, you know he's in it for the wrong reasons.
Todd Knarr@nullagent I think what we're going to see is a split in the parties. The MAGA and religious conservatives are going to form one faction, the moderate Republicans and centrist Democrats the second, and the progressive Democrats the third. The names will depend on whether or not the MAGA/RC faction can hold onto the "Republican" name. The centrist/moderate faction's going to be stuck with a name that isn't popular with a good chunk of their base either way.
sonja@nullagent but these people are the reason why this is all happening.
Dustin D. Wind@emily_rugburn @nullagent In our ancestor the Roman Empire, there was an expression: "nolens volens", aka "not wanting / wanting".
I used to think it just meant someone was indecisive, but considering all the other parallels… I wonder if it was used to refer to people like Carlson, Dems, etc who claim to be for/against X while actually working against/for X.
@MySideIsHumanity @nullagent ambivalence?
@emily_rugburn @nullagent Maybe, but I'm wondering if it might've been more akin to how we see "two-faced".
(Those words would've had a more positive connotation back then, with the god of doorways/beginnings Janus looking into the past and the future.)
@MySideIsHumanity @nullagent i just dont understand what the long term goal is with these people, including mtg, with "standing up" against the president of the US when they were some of the most vehement supporters. all i can think of is that theyre trying to weasel their way out of punishment when it eventually happens.

Laukidh@nullagent odd how they seem to flare and disappear. I assume the camera can’t keep up after the light adjustment
There's some unconfirmed reports that a number of missiles were (those here) were actually hit with a high power Israeli radar+laser system.
Still researching and waiting for more info...
@nullagent interesting. No surprise they have them too, I guess.
@nullagent have you heard anything more about if Israel has the laser tech?
@nullagent Sane people with a lick of common sense: "Don't say we didn't warn you. There's a reason people say FAFO."
