The death of Ali Khameini

"They lost the war with the very first six missiles they fired in the war because their calculations were that by eliminating Khameini they would trigger immediate responses in the streets of people cheering 'Death to khameini', 'The end of the ayatollas' etc.
I sort of have to laugh where Trump says you know the CIA was tracking them and they found him and we killed him.

Ali Khameini was at home having his weekly meeting with his granddaughter, 14-month old girl, beautiful girl.
He meets her every week at the same time, same place.
And so he was home meeting with his granddaughter when these six missiles fired from Israel hit him.
Now, according to the Iranians, uh they had told him that he should evacuate, but Ali Khameini allegedly told them that as soon as you evacuate 90 million Iranians from harm's way, then you could evacuate me.
They said, "Well, let me take you to a basement."
He said, "As soon as you could take 90 million Iranians to a basement, you can take me to a basement."
Um, it sounds like a man who was resigned to his fate.
And here comes the essential aspect of this.
He was, this is a man who has cancer, who was dying, and his greatest fear was to go out a feeble old man.
He wanted to go out a martyr, he wanted to go out as somebody who made a difference with his death."

Israel and America,
Be careful what you wish for, now you reap what you've sown.

“Is Ahmadinejad Alive?” - Ex-Iranian President Reported DEAD After Israeli Airstrikes
http://youtu.be/t6T2flsfRDw

>>By the way, yesterday the the news came out that former president of Iran, Ahmadinejad, was killed. And if you guys haven't seen this report from New York Post that came out and it was going viral all over the place, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran's ex-president, who said Israel must be wiped off the map, killed in Israeli air strike. Um their team, we were supposed to have him on the podcast last Friday. He was scheduled to do a 45minute interview last Friday on the podcast. And we've spoken a few times about doing this. Every time we did, one time we were supposed to travel to a destination in Europe to uh do a face-to-face interview. A last minute he canceled because he was worried about his life. And then the reports that he was killed. I We got an update from his team.
I'm telling you what his team told me.
So this is their team telling us this is not true. That he is not killed. He's alive. They hid down the street from where he was at and they didn't kill him. So, this is their report to us as of first thing this morning.
Okay, that this may come out. And remember, I'm telling you, their team is telling me this. So, we don't know for a fact. This may or may not be accurate.<<

Since 1776 America has involved itself in 416 wars, and military conflicts. Pre 1776 the penchant for killing others got off to a very quick start, with the Virginia colonists massacring the Powhatan Indians starting in 1609. The most famous Powhatan was Pocahontas. The Indian wars lasted over 300 years with the final conflict resulting in the defeat of the Ute and Paiute Indians in Utah in 1923. In its history America has involved itself in wars on every continent except Antarctica, but just give them time, how fortunate for the penguins!

It'd cost trillions of dollars Indy
Armchair critic,
No, it wouldn't & definitely not to start off with. I can see why career bureaucrats would be against it but ask any soldier that has to hang his butt out the window & I guarantee you they'd be for it ! For the cost of ust one of those useless subs you could defend half the northern coastline of Australia alone. Don't ask for the opinion of people who only want to make money but not take risks ! Careers in the armed forces are the armed forces costliest part but not necessarily the most effective. Literally like everything else bureaucrats & career mongers are involved in !

Hi Indy,

Here, you do the math...

Australia's total coastline is approximately 59,681 to 59,700 kilometers.
The Patriot missile system has an effective engagement range of approximately 150-180 km for detection and tracking.
Interceptor ranges vary by type: PAC-2 missiles reach up to 160 km for aircraft, while PAC-3 missiles are designed for tactical ballistic missiles at closer ranges of 35-60 km.
So how many batteries would we need?

Now lets look at cost, effectiveness and production capabilities.

Cost

How much do interceptor missiles cost?

A full, newly-produced Patriot missile battery costs over
US 1-1.1 billion, with roughly $400 million for the system (radars, command station, launchers) and over $690 million for the interceptor missiles. Individual PAC-3 interceptor missiles cost approximately $4 million each, with some advanced variants costing more.
A Patriot missile battery also requires approximately 90 soldiers for full operation and maintenance.

Effectiveness - do they work?

Watch

http://x.com/Indian_Bronson/status/2028238799902244955
11 Patriot missile interceptors flown to miss one Iranian hypersonic missile.

- You just watched 44 million dollars wasted, they can't touch hypersonic missiles.

Production Capabilities

http://x.com/Iran_Agency/status/2028655064433492160
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the US can produce only 6 to 7 interceptors per month, while Iran can produce more than 100 missiles and thousands of suicide drones.

So the first video above, not only did it cost US 44 million to launch those interceptor, they just used a month and a half of their annual production just trying to intercept that 1 hypersonic missile.

And finally even if they were stationed all around our coastline, (anyone care to tell me what that will cost) one big problem remains.
- THEY DON'T WORK.

And if they don't work, they are just a military target waiting to get blown up.
Forget the cost, do you really want Aussie troops standing anywhere near one, because you know exactly what will happen to those Aussies.

I saw a good video of a patriot battery targeted in Tel Aviv yesterday, direct hit, interceptors cooking off in every direction like a tank full of munitions.

"I've seen some footage of barrages of missiles hitting Israel, you don't even see any air defense."

Yeah. So have I. Its amazing how realistic AI generated propaganda is these days and how easily it ropes in the perpetually gullible.
