In the Lazur's 256 colour rendition, it is curious that they got the details in the front very well but messed up the third guys face completely.

To me all the faces look messed but I believe it is mostly because the image seems to be distorted, it is stretched in the vertical direction. I suspect it was created on hardware with non-square pixels and is just displayed wrongly.

I was curious and took a look in an image editor. It indeed fits much better with y axis scaled down 15-20%

If look good if you look at the image in original resolution. Click on it.

This is an attack on Turkish territory regardless if there's a US base, and Iranian missiles usually miss the bases anyway.

Turkey is led by a strongman leader and these are very sensitive to acts of public humiliation. So that's unwise when thinking about any negligible strategic advantage they may gain from these attacks

Iran is Turkey's neighbor and had relatively good relations for very long time, even with the strongman it doesn't make a shred of sense to change this. Especially for USA which has a tendency to back stab Turkey in any occasion (They could not get away from the time when Turkey did not allow them to invade Iraq from north, the previous BS war)

Hence my point that Iran's "strategy" is very questionable

Like they flattened Afghanistan? It is funny people thinks land war in an huge mountainous country with 90 million people is easy.

Never get involved in a land war in Asia but only slightly less well-known is never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

Inconceivable!

I wrote "flatten", not "invade".

flatten with what?

Like what is happening now, completely decimating their army, navy, and air force. If that isn't enough, destroy their only source of revenue (oil fields), or go even further and destroy their electrical grid and send the country back to the stone age.

Finally, if the regime does not surrender after all this, a nuke could still be used.

Think about what you're saying. That causes hundreds of thousands of deaths of innocent civilians. Suffering of millions. Weren't you supposed to help the Iranian people? This is the opposite.

We all know he doesn't care about civilians he just want Muslims to be killed in masses and that's it, and Israel/US are carrying his dream and 50% of Americans dream to annihilate the faith of people who don't like.

> destroy their only source of revenue (oil fields)

That’s the worlds source or revenue.

It didn't set the vibe though, After the strong start it is slow, wobbly and incoherent. It is ok, but could be much better.

"Ah look but they haven't carped bombed Iran" was their argument and it sounds really weird.

That was not their argument at all. Their argument was that we're not carpet bombing Iran.

They're quite explicit that they're on your side, why question their motivations?

Absolute nonsense. If you have a smidgen of proof please tell us.

Overrun by muslims? Complete BS. I checked what he said, I don't see anything absurd, what are you talking about?

Unlikely, large proportion of population is brainwashed for 40 years. They will elect a "moderate" supreme leader, then business as usual.

I can totally see why you should quit, but we see different things apparently.

Such a weird thing to say, if this makes you uncomfortable, imagine how uncomfortable it makes the other side reading this.

It is common courtesy, not a big deal.

Common courtesies often have a ratchet effect, only increasing in expectations over time, and we need a correction every once in a while to avoid sinking into the expectation abyss.
