Just to be clear. If you run from this war and hide you are by definition a coward. Now the Bible says it is better to be a live dog than a dead lion. This doesn't mean I am supporting the war. It is not an "either or" choice because there is a third choice. You can repent and take Jesus Christ as your savior. The movie "Hacksaw Ridge" tells the true story of a guy who went to war as a Christian, refused to carry a gun, refused to kill anyone and still won the medal of honor. That is option 3.
Operational Deployment:
"Operation Epic Fury"
In the current strikes against Iran (March 2026), we are seeing the first combat debut of U.S. hypersonic-class tech:
PrSM (Precision Strike Missile): While launched from the ground (HIMARS), the Army’s PrSM was officially confirmed by CENTCOM on March 5, 2026, as having been used against Iranian ballistic missile sites. It travels at hypersonic speeds (Mach 5+) during its terminal phase.
The B-1B Role: The B-1Bs at Fairford are reportedly serving as a deterrent and a "heavy hitter" for hardened targets (like the underground facilities at Natanz or Fordow) where traditional cruise missiles might be intercepted by Iran's Fattah-2 hypersonic defense claims.
The 2026 Reality: For the first time, the U.S. isn't just "researching" hypersonics; they are actively rotating them into theater. The B-1B’s move to Fairford isn't just about range—it's about having a platform large enough to carry these 6,500 lb "monster" missiles within striking distance of the Middle East.

So more debt and more inflation for what exactly..... oh yeah, we kill people now to save lives in the future.
The GBU-57 MOP (The "Father of All Bombs")
The Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) is the 30,000 lb monster designed specifically for Iran’s underground nuclear facilities at Fordow and Natanz.
The Only Carrier: The B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber.
Why not the B-1B? The MOP is over 20 feet long and weighs 15 tons. It requires a specific "Rotary Launcher" and data-links that only the B-2 has. Even the B-52, which has the weight capacity, is not currently "wired" to talk to the MOP's guidance system.
Capacity: A B-2 can carry two MOPs (one in each bay).
2026 Context: In the current conflict, B-2s have already dropped 14 of these in a single mission (Operation Midnight Hammer) to punch through 200 feet of reinforced concrete.

My advice to young men in the US is don't join the military because they are not serving the US. So problem solved
We have to keep writing in rural Norwegian dialects or else google translate etc will give us away.Vesst jør æ d.
Having that said I’m truly worried about the next step in this war, and what precedence it will establish.
The 2026 Intelligence "Surge"
In the last few days, the CIA has taken an unusual step:
The "Smart-Phone" Node: The CIA’s official Farsi social media accounts have been instructing Iranian civilians on how to transmit photos of "unusual construction" or "ventilator shafts" via encrypted Telegram channels.
Crowdsourced Intelligence: This has effectively turned millions of smartphones into a real-time intelligence network, making it nearly impossible for the IRGC to move equipment or open a new shaft without it being "seen" by a localized sensor.
The Result: A "Functional" Victory
The intelligence community likely does know every entrance. That is why, in the second phase of the war starting this week, the strategy has shifted:
"We aren't trying to find the needles in the haystack anymore. We are just burning the haystack."
Instead of trying to penetrate the 500m deep halls, the USAF is using B-1Bs and B-52s to systematically collapse every known access road, ventilation grate, and power line leading to those mountains.

If you are speaking of soldiers who chose to enlist, then you might have a point. However, patriots are standing against this war; loyalists to the crown, so to speak, are not.
Look.....quit selling your bogus Iranian propaganda. Please use better judgement in the future.
It is very sharp of you to spot that. You are correct to be skeptical; these specific images are indeed digitally altered and have been widely identified as misinformation.
While there was a real-world Iranian missile attack on U.S. bases in Iraq (such as Al-Asad Airbase) in January 2020, this specific "before and after" graphic of Camp Arifjan in Kuwait is a fabrication.
Why this image is flagged as fake:
Cloned Damage Patterns: If you look closely at the "after" image on the right, the black char marks and debris patterns in several of the red circles are identical copies of one another. In a real explosion, debris and scorch marks are unique and chaotic.
Asset Reuse: The "craters" are essentially just a dark texture layer placed over the original image. You can see the original structures still partially visible underneath the "burn" marks in a way that doesn't align with actual structural collapse.
Geographic Mismatch: While Al-Asad in Iraq was hit in 2020, there were no confirmed reports or credible satellite evidence of a mass destruction of radar arrays at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait.
Language & Tone: The Persian text at the top uses highly charged, unofficial language, which is common in "info-war" graphics shared on social media rather than official military or journalistic reports.
The Reality of the Incident
In the actual 2020 strikes, satellite imagery from companies like Planet and Maxar did show precise hits on specific hangars and buildings at Al-Asad Airbase, but they looked significantly different from this "carbon-copy" style of editing. The destruction was localized, not a uniform wiping out of every single dome as depicted here.
It’s a classic example of "cheap-fake" propaganda—taking a real event and exaggerating the damage via simple Photoshop tools to make the strike appear more devastating than it was.
