How much longer do you think the Iran conflict with missiles and bombers will last?

[Mount Athos]

How long do you think this level of conflict will last? Days, weeks, months, a year or more?

End of conflict defined here as no more major missile or bomber attacks for an extended period. The kind of attacks that take down buildings.

Three weeks.
Once the $$$ is gone, the ruling class will be off to Russia.

I would advise that Israel drop additional and incendiary bombs into the 6 holes we made at Fordow, and depleted uranium shells at the other nuke sites.

As long as the Holy Koan exists and people do their duty as it commands there is no "end."

You can only stop it for periods of time by using overwhelming force.

[Mogger]

“Koan” = Koran”. My “r” key on on its’ way out.

[PGR88]

What I find strange is that the lights are still on in both Tel Aviv and Tehran

Both sides seem to be sticking to military targets - for now anyway.

Beats me. Iran is threatening to shut off the Straits of Hormuz, which is how Europe gets most of its oil. Since we have to take care of all of Europe's military issues for some reason, we'd have to break any Iranian blockage of the Straits. And if we didn't worldwide oil prices could rise drastically, so I guess we'd need to do something.

But Iran would be cutting its own throat economically if it cut off the Straits - oil it can't ship isn't going to pay any bills. So let's see what happens.

I think it’s over unless the Houthi in Yemen attack another US ship (cargo ship or navy ship). It doesn’t matter whether the Houthi do it on their own or, yet again, as Iran’s proxy. That might be enough for Trump to drop more heat onto Iran.

[Mount Athos]

What do you mean when you say “I think it’s over”.

You mean you expect no more missile attacks and bomber runs between iran and israel right now?

[Fungi]

If Israel destroys Iran’s oil refineries, it is over; rulers will be gone to Qatar and population will take to the streets.

Forgive me. I thought the question in the main post was how often should we expect bombings between Iran and U.S. If it's asking how long to expect bombings in Israel / Gaza / "Palestine" / maybe Lebanon, then I say that there are months left.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Israel already said that they are hopeful this ends in about a week

[A Navy Vet]

A week at most. The Mullahs are bugging out to Russia.

[MinorityRepublican]

This battle will be over soon. But I doubt that it’ll be the end of the war. The regime appears to be holding on in Iran. So they’ll just rebuild.

[Wilderness Conservative]

Since we all know all the facts it will never come to an end. S/

[Ronald77]

Until it’s over, how long depends on democrats taking charge of the government and raising the WHITE FLAG of surrender.

[Mount Athos]

OK, so you don’t expect Iran to respond to the US bombing at all?

[Pete Dovgan]

When the money dries up, and the people get angry, then the ruling class will flee and the war will end.

[Libloather]

With 10 launches per day, maybe six months.

In 2022, U.S. Central Command’s General Kenneth McKenzie stated that Iran possesses “over 3,000” ballistic missiles. This does not include the country’s burgeoning land-attack cruise missile force.

[Tell It Right]

No, I don’t expect Iran to directly bomb the U.S. As I said in a prior post, I expect Iran to do it through their Houthi proxy in Yemen. IMHO Iran doesn’t have the range to reach U.S. positions right now from Iran’s borders with much of their attack apparatus damaged from Israel. I do, however, see them doing it from what attack structure the Houthi have in Yemen still working. The question is, would it be worth it?
