Iranian Chill Thread

In the end the US can't do much because they know that Iran would retaliate with force and we all know that Trump doesn't have the balls for a real war. He just wants to look tough without engaging but Iran has already called his bluff.

Keep in mind this is a short term exchange and no matter what Venezuela could always turn to China for help in rebuilding its industry. Iran probably just offered them a more lucrative deal, that's all.

Also another issue is that aside from the trouble this would cause for Trump, it would also encourage Iran to go ahead and beef up its navy so as to be able to escort such ships in the future. In case of a seizure, even building nuclear powered submarines wouldn't be off the table.

We are working on Venezuelan infrastructure for gasoline. It will take a while until they become self sufficient and there is risk of sabotage in their refineries.

We need to keep sending them gasoline. The risk is higher if we send monthly deliveries but it is our right to sell our gasoline and we can retaliate for any intervention and take their tankers in exchange. Retaliation is the key.

If there is any intervention on our tankers anytime, it means that Al-Assad attack has not been deterrent enough and further escalation is necessary.

If waters are not safe for Iran, it will not be safe for them.

@sha ah
China and Russia were not options for Venezuela at this point, because their companies were worried about facing US sanctions.

1.5 million barrels of gasoline is enough for only 20 days of Venezuela. We should get ready to send the next batch. It will take a while to fix their refineries.

A nice, short video regarding the unique engine of the SR-71 blackbird:

did you know that j-85 engine nuzzle velocity at maximum power is mach 2. do you remember the Iranian ramjet's specifications?? it theoretically possible to put the ramjet behind owj engine and increase the output power to 30 kn in after burner phase.

There are so many ways one can create new systems when it comes to these engines. What we need in Iran is for more people to understand the serious importance of jet engines and for them to aspire to work in this field. I am not exactly sure what state of this sector is in Iran, but I can only imagine what would happen if we had much more private companies et cetera working on this technology.

Iran is now number 11 on the list following India, despite experiencing a second wave. Other countries rising on the list, Peru, Chile, Pakistan, Mexico

Iran hasn't conducted nearly as many tests as most nations in the top 10. However Iran is under severe sanctions while might be hindering its efforts.

One question which comes to mind is, did Iran ease the restrictions too quickly ?

In the west Iran is being criticized for doing so and is being used as an example that western countries should not follow. At the same time they constantly claim that the real numbers in Iran are much higher.
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/18/world/middleeast/iran-coronavirus-surge.html

However what these western pundits are disregarding is that 1) The Corona numbers, even in many highly developed, western nations can be way off the mark. Why ?

Tests are only 70% accurate at best and even in the US there are countless cases of people being turned away by hospitals without ever being tested. Often times these people are simply told to stay home.

On the other hand it should be noted that Iran's economic situation in the world is quite unique. Iran's economy was already being battered by US sanctions, then simultaneously Corona hit and the oil market completely crashed.

Iran's goverment tried to acquire loans from the IMF and if they had been successful, chances are that Iran would have paid people to at stay home or that Iran would have maintained its restrictions for a longer period of time.

However with the current situation and lack of funds Iran had to take a calculated risk and open up its economy.

On the up side, it does seem that less people are dying on a daily basis than when the epidemic started raging. This could be due to the healthcare industry being better equipped, more experienced or who knows ?

The second wave is due to increased kit production and testing. That is why the death rate is not changed.

I expect Pakistan, Mexico, Peru to get ahead of us. Not that it matters.

For unknown reasons, COVID-19 is becoming less contagious and deadly. Some even think that a vaccine will not change anything in one year from now. We have very limited knowledge.

It's literally the flu

Let the morons in the west wreck themselves over of this, puts Iran in a better position.

IMO they have crossed the line. This is declaration of war. Imagine what US would do if we killed their top general while he was in Mexico. What is next? Do we need to wait for them to invade and bombard Tehran for us to give a proper response? By that time it would be too late and wouldn't even matter how we respond. Our only and absolutely only option is to launch BM's into all their bases, destroy every single one of them. Develop and test a nuke and put it on a modified Khorramshahr missile.

I think Iran is waiting for the right moment and remember is was before the covid-19

for me I think the Iranians should reacted immediately but I think with the reformers in charge they going to wait until the elections

Look at these crybabies.

First the USA cries about Venezuela giving gold to Iran. This despite the fact that the US has stolen tens of billions of dollars worth of gold and cash reserves from Venezuelan accounts in the US and EU. Then when Iran sends oil in exchange for the gold, Brian Hook states "The Iranian regime is giving away the Iranian peoples wealth to Venezuela" WHAT ? Am I hearing this correctly ? Didn't the US say earlier that Venezuela gave Iran gold ? But now all of a sudden Iran is giving Venezuela free oil ? LOL These charlatans will say absolutely anything to cast a shadow on the legal trade between two sovereign nations.

Now look at the nonsense written below. Seriously ? Doesn't the US sell and give weapons to all kinds of terrorist groups ? radicals ? fundamentalists ? Saudi Arabia which uses US bombs to bomb Yemeni civilians ? What is this hypocrisy ? It's really outlandish for anyone that has any critical thinking skills and a little bit of background knowledge.

@JulyBorges: "Iran violates the resolution of the UN Security Council by supporting terrorist groups in Venezuela with weapons."

Just to remember:

American forces hooded Turkish soldiers in northern Iraq and humiliated them in 2003:

This is how Iran did it:
