Multiple U.S. military attacks are being reported on many Iranian infrastructure assets - bridges, railways, power stations, petrochemical plants and even Tehran University. A synagogue in Tehran was destroyed when an adjoining building was hit with a U.S. bomb. A reported 50 military sites were bombed on Kharg Island - military bunkers and storage facilities, air defense systems and other military facilities. The IRGC has simply replied with more missile launches and drone strikes, targeting Israel, the UAE, Kuwait and Bahrain. Meantimes, Iran has set the conditions for a ceasefire with a 10 point plan - which includes requirements for the U.S. to cease bombing Iran immediately, and pay reparations for Iranian damage, and to give security guarantees to Iran. The Iranians state that a peace deal must allow Iran to charge "toll" fees for ships passing through the Straits of Hormuz. The U.S. President has rejected the plan without revealing all the details.

You forgot to mention how a readily-available Chinese, AI-enhanced, satellite imagery programme, is helping Iran locate U.S. assets very quickly. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04-06/us-intelligence-chinese-satellite-imagery-middle-east/106508322

This is utter BS, propagated by VC sympathisers. No Australian soldier ever committed a war crime murder in Vietnam - all VC killed by Australian troops were actively engaging in warlike actions against Australian troops - either shooting at them, wearing recognised enemy uniform and running away when called upon to stop, or carrying out booby-trap setting or mine-laying work. Or being found in VC tunnels and bunkers. But the U.S. troops were a different story, as witnessed by the My Lai Massacre.

Jerry, there are Rules of Engagement to be obeyed when carrying out military action against a declared enemy. The problems arise when you're fighting a guerrilla army, and there is no defined "occupied territory". WW1 and WW2 were easy, they were wars of territory occupation with (often changing) front lines. In guerilla wars, there is no "front line", and enemy combatants are often hard to distinguish from civilians. This makes for great frustration, especially when civilians act as "part-time" enemy, and assist guerillas. This is what BR-S's cases will boil down to, whether the murdered "civilians" were actually operating clandestinely as guerillas, or assisting guerilla forces - or whether they just were innocent civilians suspected of aiding the guerillas. https://law.unimelb.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0009/1683135/Rowe.pdf

The Doc should have examined his HEAD, not his feet! Just to see how little was in there!

Hoots, mon! There's nae language like tha Scots language! Ha' ye no read the "Da Tree Peery Grice" to ye bairns or weans? 😄 https://www.scottishcorpus.ac.uk/document/?documentid=436 P.S. My Granddad came from Ballachulish, just near Glencoe - a member of the fine Highland Clan McLean, and my mother came from Dunfermline! Her grandparents moved from Ballachulish to Alloa, during the latter part of the Industrial Revolution, to gain work in the weaving and spinning mills of Alloa. Grandad became a coal miner at Bowhill Colliery in Fife.

I can recall a few Changi POW's telling me how they always used to take the piss out of the Japs at every opportunity - and the Japs often didn't understand the piss was being taken out of them.

You can probably blame your poor results on that nasty disease you picked up, Nev. A lot of people suffer from it. It's known in medical circles as A-G-E. 😄

The Office of Special Investigations has had BR-S charged with the murder of non-combatants, as he should always have faced. His idea of "rules of engagement" is a lot different to most other peoples. He is charged with five counts of war crimes over the alleged murders of unarmed Afghan civilians and prisoners.

Clives party was always all about benefits to Clive, bugger anyone else. Just like Trump. Full of BS and self-importance, and self-interest.

Willie - But it wasn't uncommon for U.S. troops just to hold up their weapons, and empty magazine after magazine, on auto, just firing into a patch of scrub, where enemy were "suspected" of hiding.

It appears most of those Nissan Leafs for sale are Japanese imports - of which there are plenty available. But the older Nissan Leafs are low on power and range and most would only be good for 100kms now before recharge. And they're prone to battery failure because they're old-tech, and have no battery cooling. The newer series Nissan Leafs (from about 2019) are better for range and power, but they still have no battery cooling. On a hot day you're liable to cook the battery cells with high speed operation. https://carfromjapan.com/cheap-used-nissan-leaf-for-sale?position=Side Bar

Well, that's a new slant I haven't heard previously - that they got the C-130's bogged. BOTH of them? Doesn't sound like any level of truth in that story. The "technical malfunctions" seems like a more likely scenario. The only photos we have are of a blown-up C-130 remains. How that happened will remain "restricted information" for quite a while to come. The only photos we have, come from Iranian sources - and they claim they shot the aircraft down, of course. There are three photos of the site below, it doesn't look too muddy or soft to me. https://www.instagram.com/p/DWwE9OhjnaC/?img_index=1

With the U.S. military, it is. Remember, these are the people who expended 40,000 rounds of ammo for every enemy killed in Vietnam.

Marty, he knows full well what he's in for, we've done this before, and we had a good time. Plus, he's a great worker, and we get on well working together.
