Tousi TV: The Iran Strike Is Coming; US Has Delayed Because Israel Needed More Time to Prepare for Iran's Retaliatory Strikes, and US Needed More Troops In the Area

According to Mayhar Tousi, Trump has not called off the strike.

But action has been delayed because:

1, Israel asked the US to give it more time to prepare for Iran's inevitable ICBM barrage on Israel. I will add that I've heard scuttlebutt that Iran might launch dirty bombs, using up their enriched uranium to make Israel radioactive.

2, Tucker Carlson's patrons in Qatar have forbidden us to use our own base in that country for the attack. So... it's not our base then is it?

3, the military wants more assets in theater for the attack. Given that we can't use the base in Tucker Carlson's future homeland of Qatar, it makes it more important that the Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier be in theater to launch planes. I believe that's sailing from the Pacific towards Iran.

I've heard rumors that the attack is still on, too.

I think Trump's statements about Iran having stopped massacring civilians could be an attempt to get Iran to stop killing them, because he needs more time to prep the attack, and he would like Iran to kill as few civilians as possible while we're forced to wait.

Tousi offers more rumors. He says there are claims that the government is dividing up between the Regime and those plotting to overthrow the Regime. He says that, according to rumor, the former president and former foreign minister have both been arrested by the Revolutionary Guard for plotting against the government. They have not been seen in days, so it's possible.

I've been giving Trump a lot of shit for the delay. I freely admit there is much I don't know about what's happening. But I would think that Trump, being the guy he is, would love to be remembered for taking down the mullahs in Iran. He's very into racking up achievements and talking about them after.

27 My concern with Iran is that it relies on people - mostly men - who really, REALLY do not want to lose.
Partly there's the Shi'a martyrdom complex, which can be compared only with the Childrens' Crusade and other hardcores in mediaeval Christendom. Except that it's not the 1100s over here anymore, where in Iran, for these guys, it kind of is.
Also because we are talking about 30 year old losers (again, mostly men, but also some women) who have the status they have because they've tied themselves into this regime. If they lose, they are either getting hanged or else they are looking forward to decades of life being sneered at.

Foreign policy used to be a serious thing. Now it's a comedy show. The heritage foundation is running things. Trump does not care one iota about the Iranian people, they are a tool to deflect from unpopular decisions he's making elsewhere (or the ramifications of decisions), like not releasing all the Epistien files, or the shooting in Minnesota.

There used to be a whole subreddit where it was Trump quotes that contradicted previous Trump quotes. That man's words mean nothing.

If he is neither bluffing nor attacking them, then he has done the worst possible thing for the protesters. After weeks of threats, failing even to attempt intervention only reinforces the regime itself, making future protests even less likely to succeed.

What a historic betrayal after specifically telling protesters to keep going and that "help is on the way" banking on Trump helping you is the worst position in the world to be in. And that is exactly the position Iranians are in unfortunately

Here is the thing that gets me: According to Evangelicals, literally nothing bad can happen to Israel - especially a dirty bomb because allegedly the Antichrist is sitting around in his living room waiting to build a new Temple to be worshiped in.

So if you believe in Jesus, there should be zero fear of an ICBM barrage.

The man of lawlessness is going to prohibit worship in the temple, which implies that there is a temple. And (I think separately), he proclaims himself to be God in that temple, but I would assume he storms it by force. In any case I very much doubt that anyone involved in building it is doing it on his behalf.

There is a Pixy Limit and good sarcasm shouldn't be pages long with proofs and references.

For Dispensationalists to have their dream come true, they need a viable Russia and China, and looking at current trajectories, that window isn't open long.

Besides, Americans aren't supposed to be inconvenienced at all so when the economy collapses and the Left go on their murder spree unrepelled, then Evangelicals can game the system and force Jesus to return by making it bad enough.

105 Despite the Russians launching three Iranian satellites into space from Russia using the Russian Soyuz booster, the Iranians have no ICBMs just IRBMs. They can still potentially get their missiles to Israel, of course. Even partially enriched uranium is not that radioactive. U-235 has a half life of 704 million years, so it’s not very radioactive. U-238 has a half life of 4.463 billion years. Potassium-40, which is what makes bananas radioactive, has a half life of 1.248 billion years. Potassium-40 is a rare isotope, so there’s not much of it in any one banana, but a truckload of them will set off sensitive detectors.

Actually, Dispensationalism is pretty new. Most people ignored Darby, and Scofield's Bible was unknown until people started panicking around WW1 and WW2 and wanted answers from the clergy.

The Great Revival proposed Post Millennialism because at that time they thought the whole world would be saved. But that fell apart.

All the while, some form of Preterism and at least variations on Amillennialism has capture the minds of billions of Christians since even before St Peter wrote his epistles.

Dispensationalism is heretical in a number of ways and is almost exclusively a product of the American Religion.

Sometimes I'm on the bullseye, most of the time he surprises me. Most of the time I just watch and learn.

Some have mentioned it on here before that you really can't go by the president's words, and only follow his actions.

That's true enough.
He's the most unpredictable president of my lifetime, probably anybody's lifetime.

The only thing you can be sure of is that he prefers quick, deadly, and effective strikes that get to the heart of the matter over any sort of invasion or occupation.

And he likes to warn targets, and then telegraph what he's up to for months before he makes his move, usually doing things people never thought he'd do.

158 After watching how Trump and Hegseth handled the precise strike on Iran last year, and the 007-style takedown of Maduro, I have a feeling they have a smart plan for this op as well.

But it's going to be a much more complex operation, whichever way they jump.

I remember the 1979 takeover of Iran by the evil Ayatollah Khomeini and his thugs, and the American hostages being held for 444 days -- until the very morning Reagan was inaugurated, and there was finally a pair in the White House again. Once Goober Carter was out, they knew they'd better release them, or else.

Probably get help from Gulf countries and maybe even Israel but you know we will be involved at some level. And we already have Venezuela with Cuba tilting. And then there's Greenland. Rubio can only do so many jobs.

Posted by: GWB at January 15, 2026 07:14 PM (hR36P)

Yes, and no.

GLCM = Ground Launched Cruise Missile. A cruise missile is practically the opposite of a ballistic missile.

179 “Some have mentioned it on here before that you really can't go by the president's words, and only follow his actions.

That's true enough.
He's the most unpredictable president of my lifetime, probably anybody's lifetime.”

I was noticing last night that if you take Trump’s statements on Iran over the last 2 or 3 days, and look at them all together, not separately, it becomes obvious that he’s been putting out a perfect verbal smokescreen - where anything is possible but nothing is definite.

180 After watching how Trump and Hegseth handled the precise strike on Iran last year, and the 007-style takedown of Maduro, I have a feeling they have a smart plan for this op as well.

That will all be written off as luck if Trump bombs the f*ck out of Iran and the Mullahs are still standing while sleeper cells are shooting and blowing up malls and stadiums all across the USA... Believe me, Democrats are praying for this.

188 The Iranians should probably go back to some kind of constitutional monarchy.

It's the norm in that area of the world, and they have a long history with a king or emperor in charge.

Maybe the Persians could surprise us compared to their dysfunctional Arab and Afghan neighbors.

201 You guys are making it easy for Tucker Carlson to lament MIGA is a higher priority than MAGA.

Some very big US companies have major operations in Israel, including Intel and Apple. If I'm Trump I don't want to have to explain to Tim Cook why I let crazy Muslims blow up the M-series processor design team.

202 Assuming it is correct that a US was called off last night for some reason, that doesn't mean that the attack will happen tonight instead. Unless the massacres actually DO stop, the attack will certainly happen, but probably sometime within the coming week, not necessarily within a day or two.

Everything going on there has obviously been set in motion by Trump, coordinating with Israel, so anybody who thinks he's going to let the Iranian people down, or that this Revolution will not be successful, needs to be treated for TDS.
