Iranian people told to stay off trains. Unconfirmed reports that railroads have been hit in the last few hours.
This shits gonna do nothing but turn what Iranian resistance against the regime internally against us. At the very least we are helping the regime suppress the resistance by randomly bombing the crap out of them, which NEVER works. Thousands dead, 10's of thousands injured, mostly just people trying to live. You don't have to be hit by a bomb to be adversely affected. The constant sound and feeling causes widespread PTSD which results in more and more people susceptible to cult religious fanatics whims.
According to this link the US and Israel have already begun. Maybe FatFuck meant 8am not PM. Wouldn't doubt he makes some sick joke about it.

(24,243 posts)The vocal and growing opposition in Iran, the protesters that were inspiring change, the ones our country wanted to support, are gone now. The brutal regime of hardliners now has support of even most of the protesters. And Khomenei's son is more brutal than he.
This attack has doomed the people of Iran to generations more of living under an oppressive and totalitarian government.

So, their "work day" is over. And their leaders didn't do whatever Trump wanted.

The man is crazy and he will continue to murder until he is stopped.

(38,782 posts)These are civilian targets. This isn't WW2 where tanks are using civilian roads to move to battlefields.
This is Israel's strategy. While the US war crimes Iran's infrastructure, they ethnically cleanse Lebanon south of the Litani River of Shiites and no one pays any attention.
A half million forced out of their homes, while Christians get to stay...

their attacks will be surprising and causing more fear and damage than our attacks. Theirs will cheap and effective, while we blow all our $.
Not sure about the scale, just sure it will happen.
