MenschOSINT has done yeoman work to geolocate what Iran has dislocated. This is a map of just some of Iran’s greatest hits, with satellite images. There are seven more maps below, but even that’s not detailed enough. The White Empire has taken some serious blows and will never return to the region in force. It’s not just what Iran hit, it’s how they hit. As some spook said, “The Iranian attacks were precise. There are no random craters indicating misses.” Whatever wasn’t destroyed can be destroyed, and the Empire knows it. That’s why they’re leaving.

Historical Digression

The first important point is to flip the map sideways and look at elevation. Iran, by virtue of being Iran, has the high ground, both morally and militarily.

The high ground has been a military advantage since time immemorial, ask any child who’s played king of the hill, if they’re still allowed. Iran can effectively shoot down, with most of America’s bases spread out on an open plain before them.

Besides its natural advantages, Iran has built missile cities under the mountains. Before the Empire even gets to the concrete, they have to get through the mountain. The Great Satan cannot even nuke their way into these missile cities. The best they can do is dust-up the exits, which Iran can sweep clean.

Here are some illustrations of the tunnel cities which are all made up. This might as well be a map of the mountain from The Hobbit. All we know for sure is here be dragons.

These missile cities make Iran a fortified city on a hill, which is doubly difficult to take. Ask the Greeks, who couldn’t take Troy until they smuggled a Trojan Horse in (a metaphor for liberal democracy). Beware Greeks bearing gifts, and geeks bearing gifts (like American Internet). And if you’re wondering why all my examples (The Iliad and The Hobbit) involve losers, consider the source. History is being rewritten as we speak, and a different culture is speaking.

To go back to the mythical Trojan War, you can see that the lay of the land is rather similar.

Troy had the high ground, behind water and the Greeks had to have their main camp far away. Most fighting took place on the plains, the Bridges of War as they say.

In the same way (I’ll repeat the image from above), you can see that Iran is encamped on a ‘hill’ and the White Empire’s main base, ‘Israel’, is a shitty on a lesser hill far away. Most of the fighting took place over the water, on the Arabian Plain, just as in the Trojan War.

The Trojan War was ‘won’ with a little deux ex machina, a hollow horse snuck inside the city walls. But the Empire tried that with their riots in January and it didn’t work. So then they fell prey to the actual lesson of the Iliad. Attacking fortified cities is hard.

Historical Progression

For a brief moment in crime, however, none of this mattered. White air supremacy meant that mountains could be leaped. White naval supremacy meant that oceans could be forded. They had the cheat code on military history and they cheated to win, or to at least wrack and ruin within.

But this is a new historical period we’re in, marked by the defeat of the US Navy by Yemen and the US Air Force by Iran. Their aircraft carriers got diarrhea and their aircraft look like antiquated cavalry. It’s a brave new world, and these cowards can only kill children to try and keep the future from coming. Missile and drone technology have advanced so much that the giant Arabian peninsula is compressed into, effectively, a small ancient battlefield where old rules matter again. High ground and fortifications win.

In the constant battle between sword and shield, one will temporarily outstrip the other, but this goes back and forth. After hundreds of years of White swords being a superpower, that age is over. This is the dawn of the missile and drone age, the tunnel and truck age, and Iran is the risen shield of Islam. As the Quran says, “God has granted you shade out of what He has created, places of shelter in the mountains, garments with which to protect yourselves from the heat and coats of mail to shield you in battle. Thus He completes His favour to you, so that you may submit wholly to Him.”

Present Day Maps

Now, to finally get to the maps. Let’s zoom in on the modern Bridges of War.

Kuwait

Kuwait was how they attacked Iraq, but this wasn’t Iraq. If you look at the topographical map above, Iraq is on a plain and Iran is not. And Iraq just had wobbly Scuds, while Iran has pinpoint missiles. As some Washington ass told the Washington Wipe, “The Iranian attacks were precise. There are no random craters indicating misses.”

This technological leapfrog by Iran (over airplanes into the missile/drone age) has made all US bases sitting ducks. And sure enough, they were plucked.

Ali Al Salem Base was used by Kuwaiti, Italian, and American forces (it’s all one White Empire) but it’s pretty useless now. The Kuwaiti planes defending it joined the Resistance (friendly fire, allegedly), the ‘Americans’ took casualties (just a flesh wound, allegedly), and the Italians fled almost entirely. As the Italians reported,

The remains of the Predator drone are on the ground. It had cost more than $30 million and now our armed forces have only five examples left. Two Eurofighters cannot take off because they are damaged by shrapnel. These are the effects of the latest Iranian attack. The last airmen present, meanwhile, spend most of the time locked in bunkers to avoid worse damage. They no longer even have a mission to perform. And yet from there it is impossible to go away. It became their Fortress Bastiani.

The novel (The Tartar Steppe) they’re referring to said,

Now it was he, Drago, the old captain who rode up to Fort Bastiani for the hundredth time while the new lieutenant was a certain Mora, someone he did not know. Then Drago realised that in the meantime an entire generation had been used up, that he had now passed the peak of life, belonged with the old men, where it had seemed to him Ortiz belonged on that distant day. And Giovanni past forty, having done nothing remarkable, with no children, really alone in the world-Giovanni looked around in dismay and felt that his destiny was running out.

Destiny has run out for the White Empire. You simply cannot mass this density of matériel in the open anymore. You will get shut down.

Camp Buehring—named after some war criminal from the Iraq War—was blown up like its namesake. As you can see, Iran can also see, and they know exactly what bunkers they are hitting and what is contained therein. There is no strategic depth here.

Buehring was so exposed that Iran hit them with manned aircraft, F-5s and F-4s, if you remember those (I don’t). This is like someone doing donuts on your lawn in a 1950s Mustang. Iran really rubbed their nose in it.

UAE

Ah, the United Arab Emirates, the biggest cucks in history. They got hit the most and will be stuck with the reparations bill because that’s how little White Empire thinks of them. They’re lucky they still exist at all.

The UAE pretends like it’s a real country and not just a stopover for the US military like Las Vegas, which is exactly what it is, just look.

And ‘America’ pretends it isn’t based there, while releasing photos like this from an ‘undisclosed location’.

Al Dhafra Air Base is the home of the US Air Force 380th Air Expeditionary Wing, which is really the eyes and ears of the thing. And they were effectively blinded.

In the second attack from the top-left (above), a Saab GlobalEye airborne early warning and control aircraft was destroyed, according to multiple sources. The GlobalEye looks like a private jet carrying a coffin and does what it says on the tin. It’s a nearly half-billion dollar plane but now it’s dust in the wind. Iran knew what this was, where this was, and they hit it.

Bahrain

Bahrain was the home to the US Fifth Fleet, which has largely been evacuated. The Fifth Fleet has now permanently retreated back to Tampa, Florida. ‘America’ took casualties here. As the Iranian Armed Forces Spokesman said, “The Americans are censoring their casualties and wounded. ‌Ambulances are constantly transporting bodies and wounded from the sites hit by Iranian missiles and drones, especially in Bahrain.”

After its defeat in the Red Sea, this was a chaotic retreat from the Persian Gulf and really the region entirely. As the text alerts to the thousands of occupiers read, “THIS IS NOT A DRILL,” and “Effective immediately all Department of Defense (DOD) sponsored dependents in Bahrain are authorized to depart.” Then, “MISSILE THREAT WARNING. Seek hardened shelter immediately. Real World.” Real world indeed, where ‘America’ is nowhere near Iran, and has no business there.

At Sheikh Isa Air Base, the IRGC “claimed it destroyed the command building and headquarters of the US air base in Bahrain.” What anyone can see is that Iran repeatedly targeted fuel supply depots (top right), ammunition/equipment depots, US P-8 spy plane hangars, and possibly some P-8 aircraft. Also radar repair and maintenance hangars and drone hangars. This is all in addition to the radar themselves, which are covered in the last section.

Commentary

Iran obviously had good intelligence, and you don’t even have to be that intelligent. All of this stuff is parked out in the open. You can see men and matériel coming and going with either satellites or drones. These bases are built for wars against unarmed weddings it’s their funeral now. These bases are simply not defensible, as the US military establishment knew. Their entire existence as a bulwark against Iran was based on not using them against Iran, it was a Catch-22.

I want to repeat the overarching lesson of this defeat. It took 25 years, but we’re in a new century of warfare now. Manned aircraft are looking like horsed cavalry and above-ground bases look like pure dumbassery. The idea that you would have a $400 million dollar plane A) at all and B) park it out in the open is completely anachronistic. Out of time, in more ways than one.

That day is done. Talking about 5th or 6th generation fighter aircraft today is like talking about a 5th generation T-Rex after the asteroid hit. Cool, but the read the room. When that asteroid hit, the only life that survived was able to scurry underground, and it was much smaller and hardier than the dinosaurs. We are at a similar stage in the evolution of warfare (artificial life) now. As Charles Darwin didn’t say, “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change.”

However, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Warfare is also reverting to the model of centuries, where attacking fortified high ground is hard, and besieging a people on the other side of the world is well-nigh impossible. That day is not quite nigh and, indeed, many more people will sadly, probably die, but this is the high water mark of blood, inshallah, after the flood. The White Empire has been pushed out of its bases in Persian Gulf and, as much as it debases itself, it is on its way out of the history books. This is not written yet (except here), but look at a map. They’re cooked.

What Iran hit is important, but that Iran hit is more important. These troops will never come back and this equipment will never be replaced because it will just get blown up again, that much is obvious. In his JINSA report McKenzie advised pulling back to ‘Israeli’/Jordan/Saudi which is just what ‘America’ did, chaotically, but that’s still in range. It may take them a few more rounds of warfare, but ‘America’ has to leave the region entirely. Iran has enough great hits to take them on a reunion tour, again and again.
