Chief among them is the size of Iran’s ballistic missile stockpile. In 2022, United States’ Central Command estimates placed the arsenal at approximately 3,000 missiles, although this would include short-range ballistic missiles with insufficient range to reach Israel. More recent Israeli assessments suggest a figure closer to 2,000 operational missiles. This would allow Iran to conduct only a limited number of large-scale barrages aimed at overwhelming Israeli missile defences. Moreover, this estimate does not account for ongoing Israeli operations targeting launchers, storage facilities and missile bases, which are likely to reduce Iran’s available inventory further.EDIT: Maybe 2000-3000 would be a fair estimate?EDIT2: Maybe they have shipped those ballistic missiles to Russia as well?

TBH I don't trust anything from IISS either (their figures for Russia/Ukraine have been wrong)

6 hours ago6 hr Tehran promises to retaliate. Now they will bomb American and/or NATO bases, or carry out an attack similar to 9/11.
5 hours ago5 hr According to the 2020 American Community Survey (ACS), approximately 484,680 U.S. residents reported Iranian ancestry—around 0.15% of the total U.S. population.
5 hours ago5 hr Trump's speech is gonna go something like this: "Iran’s gotta make a deal or there’ll be hell to pay" — or he’ll soften the blow by throwing out some BS like, "Iran has already agreed to certain terms, and we've been in contact with their leaders."

He's very young and from a wealthy (political) family.His position is that he is a pro-Trump Communist, an unusual combination. He is ultra popular on social media in an insanely short period of time and largely generates mentally ill content. It's like he's some sort of fake social media agent with $$ (paid views) pushing him into the algorithm. There are photos of him with CIA officials.First he posted pro-Russia content, then after that he switched to being Pro-Hamas. He was even invited to Russia, Houthis, & Hamas (he gave a public speech to Hamas too which was bizarre). I really don't get how this guy is so successful on the platform and is even courted by foreign parties- he is obviously a professional political troll.
