Now That Iran Has Retaliated Against Israel?

Had another country attack a US consulate in any country, I would demand the US government respond in a way design to inflict minor amounts of damage and target those responsible. Launching 200 missiles sounds like overkill, but it’s the necessary amount to get a small proportion to actually land. This is a very appropriate military response by a sovereign nation.


They launched unarmed drones and decoy missiles to bleed the air defense system and disorient the Air Forces of 4 countries. Their ballistic missiles hit the intended target and flattened the airfield.

He knew killing the two Iranian generals in their consulate would set off the Iranians and pull the United States into a Middle East war. That will infuriate the young people Biden desperately needs to mobilize. Some will stay home, others will back RFK Jr. Heck, a few will even vote for President Trump . But really it doesn’t matter, they just need to NOT vote for Biden.

Well-done Bibi. Well-done!


You are mistaken, Bibi launched this war under Biden and desperately wants to escalate before Biden leaves office. Trump is shrewd and understands this is an unwinnable trap.

This. The Houthis, Hamas and Hezbollah are proxies of Iran.


Hamas leadership are sponsored/ hosted by Turkey and Qatar not Iran. The Hamas leaders live for free and in luxury over there just using guilt and sympathy points about being Palestinian especially to Qatar. Iran and Russia are quiet supporters but they don’t send billions to Gaza. Qatar does that . In six months, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Bibi even mention the name Qatar threateningly at all . I would not be surprised if he took payouts as well. Bribes from Qatar and Hamas commanders are right up Netanyahus alley

Why?


If you have to ask why, I suggest you go to a library and read some history books.


This is a pretty well read board. It's weak that you can't articulate your reasons

There are no coincidences in the timing of world events in 2024. Trump was supposed to break everything that keeps our country safe during his first term and implement Dominionism and fascism during his second term. But the GOP fu**ed up and that moron got one-termed.

On his way out he planned an insurrection and had SoS Pompeo meet with the Taliban in Qatar to release 5,000 Taliban prisoners including known terrorists.

Trump had already torn up the agreement to keep Iran non-nuclear while selling US secrets to Russia, Israel, and Iran. Secrets he is still selling to our enemies today.

Trump got almost all of our spies around the world killed so our enemies could go unchecked against our country and those of our allies. They couldn't beat Biden at the ballot box so they set him up the best they could in the final days of the Trump administration.

This is Putin's last chance to take Ukraine. This is Netanyahu's last chance to take Palestine and stay a free man because he's already under indictment. This is Iran's last chance to be a nuclear power and bomb whoever they want.

This desperation of dictators to do what they want now with hope Trump will get his second term and clear the way for war. Republicans did this. You want a safer America? Dissolve the GOP and indict every last one of them for treason. Because that's what this is. It's aiding and abetting our enemies in a time of war.

(all being aided and abetted by Speaker Johnson and many in the GOP)

Israel under Netanyahu is not perfect - he’ll no. But women, Arabs, LGBTQ+ people are protected. Those saying “apartheid state” have no factual understanding of Israel and also no concern for the fact that Israel has been under constant attack from terrorist organizations and countries that want its demise - and often explicitly state their desire to eradicated Jews from the world as did Hamas in its charter until 2017.

These are the terrorist groups so many are standing up for.


I think you should just shut up and take your crocodile tears for Israel to the West Bank settlers. Then you’ll see who the real terrorists are.


I don’t support West Bank settlers. I also don’t support Hamas and other terrorists groups and countries attacking Israel. West Bank settlers don’t represent the whole of Israel anymore than terrorists represent all Palestinians or all Iranians.

This is so much more nuanced than the media and Evangelicals like to play it.

Most do not favor Netanhayu nor Hamas. Most want to live their lives. Most understand it was the far right in Israel who assinated Rabin before a two station solution could be implemented.

Netanhayu MADE Hamas and is using this "war" to stay out of jail, no different than Trump using it to stay out of jail himself.

The reasons have been posted frequently. It's been a back and forth thread for pages. Almost anyone who graduated from a public high school prior to 1990 is fully aware of the reasons.

Iran may be a brutal, repressive theocracy, but Israel is also despicable - a bunch of bloodthirsty savages who steal land, kill women, and butcher and starve children.

Before 10/7, Bibi has talked about this. Before that, it was Iraq. He was screaming to Obama about war in Iran and how Iran would nuke Israel to smithereens if they had the chance. This, despite Hezbollah, a Shiite/Iranian satellite group, being on Israel’s border and Palestinians as well and many Persian Jews /former Iranian citizens . They have absolutely zero interest to do such a thing. Netanyahu was projecting. Iran hasn’t even killed the Jews they have in their own country and in fact they prefer Jews over Arabs and anyone familiar with anyone Iranian can attest to this . Netanyahu tried repeatedly to pay current Iranian Jews to emigrate to Israel but they turned it down. Iran holds elections and hasn’t had a President/PM in power for two decades like Netanyahu.



Even if it is a bluff Iran likes to say they will destroy Israel.
This is taken very seriously in Israel.

You are welcome. Only thing could make this situation worse and more scary would be having Trump in the WH.


None of these wars happened under Trump. Biden is weak and the world knows it.


So Muslims attacked Israel in 10/7 because Biden?
