I'm not sure how Iran benefits from orchestrating such an attack. I definitely think foreign entities were at least partly involved, but the investigation should really focus on who benefited from the aftermath of this tragedy and would thus have a motive. |
You don’t see any reason for Iran encouraging or sponsoring attacks on Jews? |
They had the means to repel the attack but they blew it. |
For Israel’s own sake I really hope they don’t invade Iran. They are grossly overestimating their strength and the will of the U.S. to engage in long term military combat. |
Iran can't defeat anyone, which is why they act through terror groups as proxies. In a direct conflict with any modern military, they be quickly crushed. They have outdated and relatively primitive weaponry, no capacity to resupply themselves, and a near total dependence on similar regimes who would be uninterested in propping them up any further. |
Iran follows the standar Islamist expansionist playbook. Fortunately, they have little capacity to actually do anything to promote their perverse ambitions. Sponsoring proxies to act for them has accomplished nothing, which doesn't seem to deter them because Iranian lives aren't being lost. |
I never said exceed, they need to mount an effective response. To be effective they need assault rifles. The linked story says three specialty units already have assault rifles. According to the article they petitioned for rifles for regular police but that was denied. If the officers at Bondi had rifles how many lives would have been saved? One? Five? Ten? If just one officer had a rifle lives would have been saved. |
There are plenty of Jews they could attack nearby. No need to go to Australia. |
And yet the Australian government expelled the Iranian ambassador in August as they determined that Iran was behind two attacks on a synagogue and a jewish deli. |
Wasn't the synagogue attack a false flag? The perpetrators were Jewish |
Bro, don’t get bogged down in facts. |
Suppose you can say that about anything if you’re a sh*t stirrer. |
|
How many Palestinians have died? You get to kill more Palestinians, and we have to be more effusive in our grief over the death of Jews?
Perhaps if the fascist, far-right, theocratic Israeli state didn’t equate religion with nationhood, this wouldn’t be such a problem… |
| I recall being told that attacks like this are simply "part and parcel" of living in a modern Western city. |
|
This attack is just a peace day in Gaza. Yet there is no coverage of Gaza and reporters are not allowed in to Gaza.
We should treat both sides the same. |
