It seems like a Jewish right wing are determined to start a Middle East war and WWIII . Israel is the equivalent of a Fascist state and it’s time to call them out as such .
Yes you have similar posts.
No idea what metropolitan centres relates to.
You both have simplistic "end games". It will never end. Constant hatred and terror.
Israel would be fools to hit Iran hard, over some firecrackers , Iran will strike back for real if provoked.
Xxx
There was a never ending debate about colonies having metropoles.
Things often don't end. Sometimes they have to be ended, sometimes the other side have to be wiped out.
Sometimes treating women like second class citizens and having death by stoning for gays only matter if you are an enemy of the west. If you are an ally, anything goes.
Well they didn't think that on that one.
They are going to get 7 shades kicked out of them and if they can respond and the likely will they'll see every military asset levelled.
Israel has a chance to end the threat of the mullahs, it may not get it again.
I'd say you are very wrong on this.
It's Israel's hostile neighbours who started it.
Remember: Hezbollah and Hamas are terrorist organizations ( even by definition of the Irish government), who were having a go at Israel for more than a while.
Israel has a right to defend herself.
Israeli women, yes, other nationalities, no. It's an apartheid state for sucks fate. Educate yourself.
A lot of casual racism on this thread, I would hope that this thread will be moderated correctly
Russia and Iran signed a deal recently, or are about to sign, mutual defense, so Israel attack Iran, Russia attack Israel, USA defend Israel, Russia attack USA.
That equation makes no sense.
Yes It does,but not to commit war crimes in Gaza while doing it . Also the occupation in the West Bank is not self defense.
I'm seeing a huge amount of pushback on UK social media against Starmer for his 'We stand with Israel' comments this evening. Apart from the usual English far right types, there doesn't seem to be much support out there for Netanyahu and the IDF.
The US, UK, and other NATO countries supplied the weapons and Intel for a brutal regime which treats women like second class citizens and stones gay people to death in their attack on Yemen. Killing thousands of civilians. Its total hypocrisy for the US and UK to condemn some regimes as brutal and aggressive while arming similar or more brutal and aggressive regimes themselves.
No they haven't. And such an agreement is definitely not imminent either.
They have a bit of a military trade understanding and that's about it.
They're actually in competition in oil sales to China. Which Iran aren't happy about.
Armenia and Russia's agreement evaporating recently should highlight the futility of anything of the sorts anyways.
Those people criticising israel on UK social media need to be careful. Two tier/free gear Keir is liable to send the police to arrest them.
Does Iran have a right to defend itself?

Bit of a double standard here. CNN reporter claiming the HQ of Mossad was a target and that it's in a densely populated area of Tel Aviv.
This must of taken years of planning between many states, Oct attack on Israel well known in advance and allowed to go ahead, me thinks Israel not the main player here .
Militarily, Iran doesn't want a war, as it will push back the many decades of progress it has made. However, if cornered, Iran will be no pushover. It's not like Israel can just roll over a border into Iran. Iran has significant armed forces and they are an extremely proud nation. Airstrikes are the only way Israel and its dubious allies can try to harm Iran and Iran knows and expects this. It has had decades to plan for both Israeli airstrikes. Its quite a long way from Israel too, and even with air-refueling, it's quite a stretch for Israel to reach all of Iran. As many military advisors have already said, the US definitely does not want a war with Iran. It would not go the way many people think it would.
For example, just 200 ballistic missiles were fired today. Iran have almost 3 to 5000 of them in stock.
The 'self defence' argument is a weird one. The regime supporters appear to be saying that Israel is the only country in the Middle East that has the right to defend itself and can invade (or attack with missiles and bombardment) any country that supposedly poses a threat to it.
Israelis have been retaliating against fake attacks for years. The Iron Dome does not exist and today's attacks are evidence of this. Why would Lebanon/Hezbollah/Hamas waste missiles over the years if they knew they will be intercepted? Why would they waste thousands worth of missiles for empty pot-shots? Truth is, they never fired anything. If it doesn't make sense, then it's not true.
Why are the US and UK only acting with such outspoken condemnation now? It's because this is one of the few times that actual missiles have been launched into Israeli territory. Everything before this was completely fake and used by Israelis as a basis for "retaliation".
Here's a video from a few days ago showing the so called "Iron dome" intercepting enemy missiles:
https://www.bitchute.com/video/a1GfPk14Asfv
Clearly shows they are nothing but fireworks launched from within Israeli territory. There is no Iron dome, such a technology that can intercept projectiles going at such speed simply cannot perform the way the israelis claim.
Sky news reporting Israelis using white phosphorus on civilian towns in Lebanon. It's bad if Israeli sympathisers are even criticizing them.
It's very clear that Israel are trying to escalate the situation as much as possible while self-proclaimed Sleepy Joe Biden is in power (the single worst president in US history, without question) Because they know if Trump gets into power, he won't have scenes of dead children being pulled from rubble happening on his watch. It's already too late, however.
Its not honestly meant. It's almost invariably demanded of pro-palestinian, or even just neutral figures to right at the start of the discussion concede that israel has a right to defend itself.
If a pro-palestinian figure say yes, israel has a right to defend itself they are immediately conceding that israel is defending itself, and the conversation is now about what israel - the victim in this narrative - must do to defend itself.
The only right answer is to say israel is an illegal occupation of Palestinian land and it has no right to defend itself. These people wouldn't grant that the Palestinians have a right to defend themselves.
Iran does not want to get into a full scale war with Israel. Israel is not afraid of Iran as they have more weapons missiles and advanced military tech and unlimited support from America Israel also has advanced surveillance tech theres probably anti government people in Iran who are sending info to mossad .Of course it's hard to say what will happen as both sides attack each other
Israeli casualties are likely when they invade Lebanon
I don't think Biden even knows what Israel will do next
Lol, I didn't "disappear", I just don't live on boards 24/7. But regarding your questions of numbers, I'm not sure the relevance.
One is either at war or they are not. As for Hezbollah, they've been attacking Israel non-stop starting 8 October last year, so they can't complain now that they are in the "finding out" stage of FAFO. (F around, Find Out)
Like all conflicts, lots of propaganda from both sides.
The death toll now stands at …..
So much misinformation being pumped out, its hard to know what the exact truth is. Example; six months ago, maybe more? it was reported that a hospital in Gaza had been targeted & hit with a missile. Pictures of death & devastation at the hospital, total carnage & the building destroyed. The next day it transpires the "missle" had landed in the carpark, and the hospital hadn't been hit.
Both sides are at it, so expect lots more dramatic accusations which may, or may not be true?
Correct, and all these colonies of Israel are complicit in the genocide of the Palestinians. Let's hope one day they pay for their many crimes.
This is nonsense. The Iron Dome exists it just isn't magic and is resource intensive.
Of course Israel is afraid of Iran. They are evil genocidal lunatics but that doesn't preclude them from understanding that Iran are a capable regional power. They've been saber rattling against Iran constantly for years.
You are correct though that Iran doesn't want a full scale war with evil maniacs that have a gun to the worlds head in the form of nuclear weapons. War also means war with all the countries that Israel controls like the US, UK, France and so on that are there at the drop of a hat to protect Israels ongoing genocide from being interrupted should anyone dare retaliate.
Months later and the hospital was a destroyed shell with patients and medical staff killed and buried in mass graves in the grounds
Labour Friends of Israel is a powerful group. Starmer has used accusations of anti-semetisim to purge those who don't toe the line.
Isreal poking the hornets nest.
This will not end well.
