"iran's missile ****nal is the largest and most diverse in the middle east."

Amar Ben Gvir to Amir Bar-Lev: “Why did you provoke Iran?”

Bar-Lev responds: “We didn't realize the power of Iran's missile capability.

Isreal has bitten off more than it can chew lads!

All commentry is designed to assist investors into making informed investments decisions.

DYOR.

I must be really getting under your skin hardup.

Why do British tax payers want to spend 1 million a pop on air to air missiles to take out Iranian missiles, not even aimed at the UK. Seems that British citizens have been led up the garden path into believing that Iran represents an existential threat to the UK,wnen it is clearly not.

How many new hospitals could be built in the UK with the money that is going to be waisted on sending our jets to fight someone elses war in the middle east?

Hardup, how many minutes of your life did you waste, time that can never be regained, researching all that?

Hardup, other than abuse, do you have anything useful to offer?

The aim of this post is to enable others, to make informed financial decisions based on both an understanding and acceptance of the reality of the conflict.

Generally, the Iranian strategy is 'strategic containment'. Some folks on here should look it up...

Specifically on missiles and defence systems, the Iron dome and David's Sling which the USA funded to a huge cost, is just about useless now! Most of what is being intcepted is designed to be intersepted! Thees 20 and 30 missiles have been upgrated with decoy capacity. They deliberately bloom to distract the defence systems. The real missiles sneak in and hit their targets.

DYOR!

Vance: US may join war against Iran

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2025/06/17/israel-iran-latest-news-missile-strikes-donald-trump/

Multipe reports all over the internet that Iran has destroyed Israeli Mossad HQ and Israelis fleeing to Cyprus in small boats.

30000 now reported in cyprus.

No drinking on my part Brixton.!

Be prepared for a large shock to the financial markets!

Trump is currently considering a direct strike on Iran, which will mean in effect USA joining the war on Iran.

Obviously, the coming hourse are crutial!

Iran is having huge sucess in its targeted missile strkes on Israel, which is now being censored by the Israeli government.

Over 30,000 Israelis have departed Israel by small boates to Cyprus.

Mo55ad HQ taken out.

Israel is getting hammered! Their Iron dome has failed! Iran is using 20 year old decoy missiles to flare and Ct as decoy sacrificial missiles, while other more sophisticated faster missiles hit their mark. Haifa port and gasworks taken out! Ben Guerin destroyed and runway with Israeli planes and jets ow relocated in Cyprus. Minimal civilian casualties in Israel compared to Iran illustrates whose missiles strikes are more accurate. Isreal missile defence system is being rapidly and deliberately depleted by Iran. Israel has asked US for support, but usage of US military stock in Middle East will depleat them,leaving insufficient to defend Taiwan. Chain, North Korea and purin all laughing their heads off at the mess the US is getting itself in. Trump military parade was a fiasco.

Please be informed about what is really going on, so you can make informed investment decisions!

Onlyif, I am very happy with Labour in power, except of course their support for the genocidal Israeli terrorist state.

Yeah but, that is covert involvement and yes you can throw in a few refuelling aircraft which the yanks sent over but again that is logictical support...

USING US / UK aircraft to shoot down Israeli missiles is defensive

The big question is if they US or UK will attack Iran directly!

Trump had a dig at Macron, when he suggested Trump was going back to the US to broker a deal between the two warring , and Trump was suggesting he was going back for something much bigger.

The issus is that if US attacks Iran directly, then markets will plummet, except military related investments.

Trump is, it appears, on involvement in middle east conflict, as the MAGA troop are not happy.

We await to see if US joins in the middle east conflict in a big way.

Equally, UK has already additional jets in the region.

Expect markets to move fast, if we see an expansion of the Israeli hostilities, with 'allies' joining in.

Looks like alongside BVA and BNC, BARC are leading the pack!

Any of you folks dithering on whether to buy more, now have your answer!

It is a bit of a stalemate over there at the moment.

They are just lobbing lots of missiles at each other.

Seems the Houthis just in also.

The real question is if the there is going to be a blockade on trade in the straits of Hormuz, as that will cause major problems.

Hardup, when will you stop pretending that you have a large shareholding in lloyds and just admit that you have a token £250 or £500 invested in lloyds.

Bloomers, are you using AI to generate your replies?

By Israel starting new war, so far...
