Now a fire has erupted at an Iranian refinery at southern Teheran

Seems like they have been hit by bad luck for the moment.

"Bad luck"...?

^ Maybe that's what was written on the missile

Texas Red · 06-02-21, 03:29 PM

Sounds more serious than bad luck my friend

Really I hope this doesn’t end horribly

Missile !?

Have I missed something I have not heard or read that Iran had been attacked.

What about the 2 Iranian pilots who died inside of a hanger when their ejection seats went off. Wonder how fast they were going when their bodies slammed into the ceiling?

Here is a link to one article about it-https://theworldnews.net/pk-news/two-pilots-killed-in-us-made-f-5-iran-fighter-jet-incident

My poor math skills not withstanding, an ejection seat blasts U at 65 ft per second ie: 3900 feet per minute. (1188.48 meters per minute!) Spine compression (18g's) especially with a heavy integrated modular helmet is rough on the neck...much less a hanger roof 200 ft overhead! I note the rear seat in a tandem cockpit goes a tad first to avoid the rocket burn from the pilot's seat rocket! Broken legs are typical...a fair tradeoff considering the alternative

I bet the last thing going through the pilots mind who were ejected was their rear ends.

My theory is that the Mossad is just having fun with Iran.

It could be plausible since Iran supplied Hamas with the weapons they used to attack Israel during the recent conflict between Palestine and Israel.

Could this be revenge by the Mossad? I think so.

Jimbuna · 06-04-21, 10:56 AM

If it was Israel then it would almost certainly be orchestrated by Mossad.

mapuc · 06-04-21, 11:24 AM

Lets play a little with the theory that it was Israel/Mossad who was behind all or some of the accident who happened in Iran a few days ago.

Does Iran have the nerve to retaliate ? I'm not talking about retaliate by proxy.

Does Iran hope other Muslim countries will join them in their crusade against Israel ?

after the missile attack on Saudi Arabia's refinery, I wouldn't rule out a little Sunni vengeance either by Prince mohammed bin S.

Possibly with proxy involvement by the US or Israel. That said, Iran is presently enroute to Venezuela with vessel # 2, Makran, and a frigate possibly to execute a 7 missile weapon sale in violation of American Monroe Doctrine policy...and thus the plot thickens....

They are Persians, not Arabs, and they are Shia, not Sunni.

Shia Persians.
Sunni Arabs.
Turks.

At least between these three groups you have to discriminate. Each of them has tried its best, historically, to brutally subjugate and dominate, if not exterminate, the others.

Go figure.
