And all that stops the minute the Us or Israel invades Iran and kills their families. It’s very easy to change people from secular to right wing with a war |
Most of you are too young to remember the Iranian hostage crisis from 1979-81.
For 444 days, they held 53 American citizens and diplomats hostage. Iran has been a terrorist state for a long time. They haven't changed. Only become more terroristic. |
Yes, but the Iranian regime is not remotely reflective of the Iranian people. It would behoove the US to not do anything to change the sentiment of everyday Iranians. Fortunately, the rocket attack on Israel was merely a face-saving gesture and didn't change anything. Iran definitely does not want a regional war. Nor do the Iranian people. It's Sinwar and Netanyahu and their followers that want to blow up the region. As long as that conflict stays between Palestinians and Israelis, the rest of the world will march on. No one really cares about that sh#tshow. It's only been going on for 75 years. |
I’m old enough to know that those of you stirring up war with Iran are not to be trusted. |
How is sending missiles towards Al-Aqsa Mosque 'defending itself'? |
Nobody want war with Iran. But, telling them "Don't" isn't going to do squat. Biden is clueless and weak. Iran knows that. |
So 3 drones or missiles got through? That's like 1/3 of one percent. As defender, I'd be happy with those results all day long. |
The big tell that he’s been clueless and weak is that he hasn’t told Bibi and the Israelis to stop their genocidal crap. Since Biden is their supplier he is totally in a position to stop this crap. Maybe Biden actually means it when he says the Israelis shouldn’t respond to Iran’s attack? Maybe if the Israelis do the stupid thing and attack Iran Biden will be strong and cut off their weapon supplies? |
NP. 3 bases, not three drones/missiles. There are multiple different videos of clear strikes of multiple missiles hitting each of the bases. It’s pretty clear those are the main intended targets and they got the best weapons. Iran learned a lot about Israeli defenses. Iran also gave advanced warning and didn’t use their best weapons. Shorter: now is *not* the time to become an Iron Dome salesperson! |
All were cheap decoys to draw out the air defense system. Iran only used a dozed mid-range ballistic missiles and almost all hit their intended target. This was a military game for Iran. They tested out an amply warned and fully mobilized Israeli and ally defense, and broke through to high value military assets with ease. They didn’t even try their high tech missiles. |
Iran telegraphed the attack allowing Israel to prepare and only used a fraction of their stock. Israel could have use ballistic missiles, fired 800 missiles a day for a few days, coordinated with hezbollah, etc. Their defense would have shattered after a few days. Do not kid yourself. This was just a warning shot. |
Warning shot makes sense.
Please spell out the implications. Does it reveal defense systems, allies? Does it say: we’re not simply accepting the April 1st hit? Also, some military strategist, please help: what is the significance of the countries with closed air spaces? In some cases it seems to give support to one faction or another, and in others it declares no desire to be involved? Thanks to anyone who can explain this. |
Lol, it's been a minor miracle that WW3 hasn't broken out already. That's thanks to Biden and Blinken who have very quietly been the best administration at foreign policy in almost 40 years. |
