IRGC Deploys SAM To Defend Nuclear Sites Amid U.S. Strike Concerns: Reports

Click to see full-size image

Iran is strengthening air defense systems located near its nuclear facilities as a precaution against possible US missile strikes, the Kuwaiti Al-Qabas newspaper reported on December 24th.

These reports come amid increased tensions, with many expecting US President Donald Trump to order a “farewell strike” on Iran, in his last few weeks in office.

Currently, the USS Georgia nuclear submarine, and two US guided-missile destroyers are in the Persian Gulf.

Previously, a missile barrage struck near the US Embassy in Baghdad, slightly damaging the building, and this was blamed on Iran.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo blamed Tehran, and the US Central Command said the attack “was almost certainly conducted by an Iranian-backed rogue militia group.”

Iran’s foreign minister Javad Zarif dismissed U.S. President Donald Trump’s allegations that Tehran was behind the recent rocket attack on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad.

“Putting your own citizens at risk abroad won’t divert attention from catastrophic failures at home,” Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted.

According to the Kuwaiti newspaper, Tehran has built up air defense systems and radar locators of the aerospace forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to protect the facilities vital for Iran’s nuclear program from strikes aimed at disrupting the uranium enrichment process.

In particular, the precaution is taken in Isfahan province, where the Natanz uranium enrichment plant is located. The site in Fordo, also is under protection.

Sources told Al-Qabas that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard had deployed a ‘Power 737’ missile system as well as Russian ‘SAM’ air defence missiles in the vicinity of both sites.

In a tweet this morning, Iran’s foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif  said Trump will “bear full responsibility for any adventurism on his way out”.

He added: “Last time, the US ruined our region over WMD fabrications, wasting $7 trillion & causing 58,976 American casualties”.

Currently, there is no confirmation of the deployments of air defense systems, but tensions are at a boiling point, and the slightest misstep may have substantial consequences.

Where the 59k American casualties come from?

viktor ziv

Most of them, friendly fire? Few years back, someone here made a joke when SAS was attacked by USAF in Iraq… When Germans fire, Brits duck. When Brits fire, Germans duck. When Americans fire, everybody duck.

If they wasnt qualified to the job, they wasnt there.

gryzor84

You mean like you are not qualified in basic grammar yet you continue to post here ? Anything is possible, America is the land of miracles, come on :) Shortages mean lower standards because no alternate choices, not because it’s alright, moron.

Jens Holm

I see Your hardly coment are limited and limited again and again by harams of religious and sekular kind.

Even by that You dont understand west and its very visble in Your writings, which also are highly propagandized. You not even know You history, because You only have nationalistic creations of the worst kind from after WW1 or later.

Next You translate in Your mind from a very simple language into a very advanced one. By that Your perfect English only is a corner or real english and by that mine.

You are the one which dont know Our extra casus and grammer as well as. Your great mistake is You dont know that. You might do it now.

English in text also are many versions. Some perfect tranlations in Lawyers and Doctors language is not what we speak here but only a corner and very very incomplete.

We also have sms and mms language.

So I write fast and advanced english and dont care half a rotten potato about my spelling.

I can add Danes has a very high score using english in street level as well as in the top here and in the rest of the world and I am one of those, which think real communication is much better then Your suggestions for limitations not even madé by You.

Tempting to write – as I see it for You – You cant handle Our advanced world and Your own as well if You as a start dont invent Your own primitive language.

I only know arabic well. Its a siple effective language easy to learn and Our children are high above that as children, before they reach 10.

gryzor84

You’re even more unintelligible when you rant so forcefully mate, drop the passion, it only worsens your limitations, I’m being honest with you.

As for me : stop trying complicated demonstration, as you lack basic evidence, knowledge and understanding on my persona and complexity, your post was more en embarrassment than anything real, trust me.

Anyway, there is ample evidence of the popularity of my views and the way they’re treated by the majority of people here of all opinions, left and right, only a fringe that you and your racist retard friend tzatz are part of choose to resort to ad hominem attacks all the time whenever they dislike a given comment, pretty much like a child arguing.

Indeed, unlike uneducated and brainwashed individuals such as you, I have absolutely nothing to prove to anyone on anything when I write down conjectures of my own, as I systematically make sure I research and master the topics I wish to produce an opinion on for all to see. That’s the basic principle that distinguishes me from a simpleton like you, and it shows in every exchange. You can then agree, or disagree, that’s part of the definition of a mature debate.

But claiming I’m a “liar” based on a single round figure and ignored every bit of my posts by pasting a Youtube video while disqualifying my page-long comment by a simple “this is bullshit” will never make you appear even remotely close to anything serious or worthy of consideration in any discussion, quite the complete opposite actually. I once took the time to answer your argument with well-worded bullet points, you never addressed even a single one. Not a single,one. I remember those days very well. You simply answered “this is wrong/not true/propaganda” without every producing a modicum of evidence to back that up. This is the day I understood you’re a fraud : A dumb agitator with issues at basic grammar, and certainly not a real person.

You are so extraordinarily immature that you take offense at people for merely disagreeing with you, and never take the care of building a structured argument to counter them, you simply call names and people cannot make anything solid of whatever you’re trying to reach, you go in every direction, quite often go off-track by pushing the topic towards your home country nobody ever gave a shit about when talking about the ME, and your pseudo “ideology” (if one can even call it that) revolves around a very simple and limited concept : “Israel should rule the ME, and nothing they do is wrong to accomplish that”.

Based on that assertion, history of ethnic cleansing doesn’t exist, present-day abuses don’t exist either, you dig your head into the sand like a dumb ostrich and pathologically ignore anything that tarnishes your idealistic view of this criminal country, that in turn you also dismiss as a myth because your little brain can’t handle the extra thinking necessary. You speak in utter disconnect from reality on every level every time you open your mouth, it’s sad actually. You should really get a life other than looking so ridiculous here with almost every participant you don’t even comprehend.

Anything that goes against your doctrine trigger your stupid wrath that goes nowhere and you get gradually ignored in these premises by a growing number of people. You’re merely left with an echo of yourself and people just move on past you. I did you the favor of staying one more time to explain your situation.

You can choose to either ignore it like the rest of the realities you don’t like, or take a hint. Your call. I’m done.

Harry Smith

Shouldn’t it be “An embarrassment” instead of “En”?

PS look how much of your time you spent for a reply which probably won’t be understood by the person you replied to.

gryzor84

This, and I also missed a couple “s” here and there both for plurals and the occasional third-person singular.

As for your question : Quite true. But having in mind that it was going to be my ultimate reply to anything he posts ever, I thought I could give a shot at conveying the largest possible spectrum of ideas, if you will. Now I’ll block him should he insert himself in threads I start or participate on in the future. This way he won’t be able to pollute my personal activity with his bullocks. Or me wasting a minute more of my time managing him.

US military was geared to fight Russia with firepower, we are not suited for high casualty colonial wars. Should have learnt from Vietnam. Fighting over Arab oil for Israel is simply not worth American lives. We are past peak oil anyway and the future is alternate energy. Let the Arabs, Russians and Iranians drink their oil. No blood for oil or for Zionists. Americans have had enough.

tzatz

You suggested:

“Fighting over Arab oil for Israel” Huh?

That’s BS … explain that American

It’s nice someone made such good joke he brought a shine of light in a ruskie gray life, for many years. Now it’s obvious why Russians have the highest suicide rate of all countries.

Ignorant fool, US death toll is much higher in contractors, daily suicides, friendly fire and accidents is included.

Veteran suicides and homelessness are a big blight on our country. Hopefully, Biden would put some more money into VA.

occupybacon

By that twisted logic all krokodil cinsumers in Russia are victims if Putin.

Trump took care of the VA more than any other president before him, if it was up to me I’d give back all the 3B$ we get annually to those guys. Our GDP is high enough as it is, we don’t need it and it can help other heroes like that guy. And regarding the numbers, compared to other wars American casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan is low, in Vietnam around 60K died. Most of them died from IED’s not even from combat, Shia terrorists can only hit and run. Don’t worry, we will come for them sooner or later and I personally intend to catch one of those fucker alive.

True, You hs to add others, but it will never reach fx 58.000.

Better be safe than sorry….Trump was better than fuking ape looking Hillary that said out loud she would start a war with Iran to “protect” Zion as they are the only ones having a key to her bedroom. Trump have still done a better job, but yet again the fat dogs and Zion including Wahhabi shithead singing in his ears.

Iran has acted wisely and also dispersed its forces over a large region. Most IRGC generals are in Iraq and Syria. Here is photo on General Ghaani in Damascus yesterday.

Just Me

Most realistic Americans know that we have no interest in Syria and shedding blood there is pointless. Let the Iranians have it, if they want to exert influence so bad. In any case Iran will not leave Syria for the foreseeable future as they are heavily invested there.

Jens Holm

Israel loves it as it is now. Iranians are in Syria close to them and they can kill them one by one – an do. They even save fuel. making Assad unhappy.

Furkan Sahin

I support Assad because Assad’s followers girls are lovely and delicious :D :D

It mustbe because You are old and they are the only ones, You can catch.

Glasses might help You too. You and Your wife takes them off, and You both seemes Young again:). We sometimes add whiskey as well.

But good hunting.

Yes I’m 28 and I’m old too come with me to Damascus and we make alcohol and party with girls and score them

Jens Holm

Im older then that. And old jpke of mine says I only need and extra one, if she has claeing as hobby.

Do You still grow dades there or is it houses all over?

Cromwell

There were no Iranians IN Syria before the US decided to wage a War of terror against the Country.

Jim Allen

When the invaders have been driven out of Syria, and the pretenders pose no threat, Iran will evaporate from Syria as quickly as it materialized to assist it’s long time ally. Militarily speaking. As will Russia, Hezbollah, and other forces allied with Syria. Is there something wrong with your head ? What do you mean by, “we” ? US Government has interests in the Middle East. Serving the criminal Banking Cabal at The City of London. In fact serving the Zionist Khazar pretenders are US Government’s only interests. We the people have no interest at all, beyond good trade relations.

Ashok Varma

Iranians and Russians were invited in Syria by the popular legitimate government of Dr. Bashar al Assad to fight US and Zionist supported Wahhabi terror emanating from Turkey. They both intend to stay of 99 years of more as they signed defence and training treaties.

AIPAC and the Zionist lobby are pushing for a war, but Pentagon is not so gung ho on the idea, also US internal situation is unfolding violently as a bomb placed by the alt-right just went off in Nashville as a warning and ominous shape of things to come. Trump may even declare Martial Law and hang on to power as the pardoned General Flynn suggested at last week’s meeting at the White House.

Well, they already are as the window for war is closing and US deployment in the region is at its lowest ebb since 2010. A war with Iran is a very big proposition, entailing millions of men mobilized during the worst pandemic in US history. It would be fool hardy for US military to destroy itself while China and Russia take advantage of a sapping war in the Persian Gulf. I would hope that more mature and saner heads at the Pentagon will prevail.

Going by Trump’s isolationist America First propensity it is doubtful that he will initiate a major war in the most flammable region at the twilight of his presidency in the middle of the devastating US pandemic and economic meltdown. The chances are virtually zero that Trump would start a war with Iran. He hasn’t started a war with any country. He’s continued Bush and Obama wars against countries he has inherited but he has not begun a new war on his own with any country.

So why on earth would he do it now and he is packing up and getting to leave Washington for good to an uncertain future and perhaps a myriad of legal entanglements. From the weak US force posture in the region and rising China It does not indicate in any way that Trump intends to start a war. And, again my dime is on the house that the chances of that happening are virtually zero.

Americans are planning to deliver a painful strike on Iran and blame it on the defeated Trump. Iranians, if not careful will be lured into not responding in hope of normalizing ties with Biden Administration which will turn out to by nastier on Iran. Biden Administration is likely to seek for all excuses to not rejoin JCPOA, lift sanctions of restrict Zionist terrorism.

Harry Smith

December 24-25 is Christmas time, but USA increased aviation activity near Iran. It’s quite unusual.

Ashok Varma

And nothing happened or will. Indian diplomats who have very close ties and reading of Iran, don’t believe that the US military wants to escalate as Iranians will set the region on fire and US has very limited options against Iran, short of a nuclear war.

Harry Smith

USA didn’t really cares about the region, I think. We have to put USA internal situation in a priority when we are trying to forecast USA future actions. Many of high ranked USA military officers think that 2020 presidential was a treason. I won’t say that anything is impossible until Biden inauguration.

gryzor84

Somehow I don’t see the Pentagon simply nodding heads and accepting a war of potentially epic regional proportions coming out of the blue pushed by angry toddler on his way out of the command room. Most high-ranking officials both military and civilian know full well Trump has become erratic and irrational even by his own standards, and is now more a nuisance and a danger to their own stability than anything else. My personal view is that they will contain him until he is officially out the door. The only compelling act that would push the US into open confrontation with Iran at this point is the latter doing the folly of drawing first blood either on US forces around it or its most crucial allies in the Gulf or Israel, which it will never do, nor has it ever done. But of course, that’s in theory, I’m not at the discretion of internal dynamics high up in their circles of power, obviously.

Ashok Varma

I don’t think the US military is suicidal, Trump has expired shelf life. A war with Iran will accelerate China’s rise as even a idiot like Modi has warned them to tone it down. The Chinese are now every active in Afghanistan and want US to die by a thousand cuts and a war with Iran, a very large and powerful country will be a blessing for them.

King Cliff

The United States of America can’t or have the stomach at this time to go to war with Iran.if they had the willed or the opportunity they would’ve done longtime ago. The Iranian are a strong nation and if one missile fly ovethem that will only United them stronger and give them a greater determination to fight the United States of America and its allies. The only things left is negotiations left between the United States of America,China is the rise and the European nation need market to export they goods do they can grow,the Indian deep down can’t wait for sanctions to lift and they will take opportunity to oppose the United States of America. like I said the United States of America need to negotiating a means for United States of America to return to Iran and not to loose the market opportunity to China and who ever else.
