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 .
This country's economy depends on American tech company's. The Jewish lobbying influence on American politicians is strong especially in the democratic party .most of tax revenues in irelandcomes from American company
I the IDF has bombed many hospitals in Gaza and is blocking aid workers from going to Gaza to provide food or medical help
Its almost like they would prefer if Palestinians will simply die of starvation or lack of access to medical treatment
Those Arabs will I think be re-integrated easily enough into Palestine (and the Golan Heights back into Syria, etc). In many ways, they never left. There might be a few collaborators and some communities that willingly participated in the israeli occupation that will need careful handling, but there are experiences from other post-conflict societies that can help.
In other news, the head of the IRGC and the Iranian defence minister have both threatened retaliation on israel for the recent aggression so it seems like Iran wont be ignoring it. The defence minister further stated that there had been no disruption to Iranian production of either defensive or offensive systems - apparently they were aware of the attack and had taken counter measures - and noted that a single air defence system (presumeably the old Hawk) was replaced the following day so there had been no reduction in the air defence network. They also said the israelis hadn't been able to enter Iranian airspace.
All in all, it seems like the israeli airstrike, for 100 planes and terrible threats beforehand, didn't do much.
These disgraceful and ultimately myopic policies will ensure Hamas will never be completely destroyed; they are in effect a recruiting sergeant for Hamas longer term . This is probably why we see the IDF repeatedly having to go back into areas they say have been cleared of Hamas members after 13 months of war
Meanwhile in Saudi Arabia:

All in all, it's kind of embarrassing that you're pushing Iran State TV propaganda to suit your narrative of Iran's might.
Do you get your Ukraine-Russia news from Russian state TV?
I think we all remember Iraq state TV claiming the US had been pushed back in a counterattack in 2003.
So just like terms like far right, Islamophobia and racist being thrown about. It’s funny given the Irish government’s policies today is what they themselves would have called far right a year ago.
I'm Fairness, it's the lack of any gloating or proof of damages from the vile creatures in Israel that shows nothing much happened,
seems like the iranians are threatening to attack the americans this time too - that will go down well in the states at election time
So I suppose US intelligence are lying, and the satellite images are all fake, alright then. Gotta believe what Iran state TV says I guess.
Do you remember Iraqi weapons of mass destruction factories story?
Do you understand the words "nothing much happened",
How do you destroy an ideology?
Bloody Sunday wwas one of the IIRA's biggest recruitment drivers, how many kids now who have seen their families decimated by Israel will take up.arms and continue the fight?
Tbh, the entire Arab world looks weak and toothless compared to the Israeli war machine. Who'd want to be the next leader of Hamas or Hezbollah? One way ticket to martyrdom and the 40 virgins I suppose.
The only way this (ultimately) ends is with Palestinian statehood and a two state solution. The idea that Israel can impose its iron grip on the region and oppress the Palestinians for the next five decades is a non runner - they have totally blown it at this stage. They are already despised by the vast majority of global nations and are being propped up by a few corrupt and morally bankrupt administrations in the West.
all hamas and hezbollah have to do is stop/surrender its the quickest way to two state solution
No, that's just gives the thieves an easier route to steal more land
That's naïve to be fair. Israel will never allow the 2 state solution. No chance. That ship has sailed long ago.
It's not as long as Likud are in power . The situation in the West Bank regarding settlement expansion prior to October 7th attests to this. Your friend Bibi even boasted to collegaues about placating Hamas in order to undermine the PA and stall any move towards a two state solution.
That is demonstrably false
Those damn antisemetic Jews pushing fake news.
well theyre wont be any two state solution with iran, hamas, hezbollah, houthis, iraqis etc. firing missiles at israel thats just fantasy stuff
You're right. It will be a one state solution. Palestine.
and that will be you, hamas and whose army
No one seems to have an answer for what happens if there is a two state solution and then Hamas start firing rockets at Israel again. It’s the same issue with Iran, they fired hundreds of rockets at Israel, they funded and armed extremist militants that made life worse for anyone in those regions.
That won't happen.
I'd say Hamas has more members now than they had before Oct 7th. With all the videos of the IDF and Israeli government Sh1thousery and all the kids growing up in this present situation they will have many more.
A " two state solution" is now a fantasy , Israel has to go
Probably, thanks to their own (talking about hamas), as you say, Sh1thousery. It certainly looks like hamas got more than what they were looking for, or they certainly don't care about their own people. For me they don't care option it is. Haven't seen any attempts on hamas side to improve the situation. Just keep digging bigger hole for palestinians.
Two things certain - Sh1thousery from Hamas and Israel. Neither side seem to care. Neither side will have peace.
In a palestinian state Hamas would be a small fringe group. They aren't even part of the PLO, which-in the main-is far more secular.
I propose a gedankenexperiement. Suppose we could have a situation where the zionist colonisers pay the Palestinians a fair price for all the property they have stolen since they first invaded Palestine, and want to steal in the future.
Then, Western countries allow the zionists to permanently revoke their Western citizenship/passports. For every zionist passport revoked, one can be issued to a Palestinian.
Let the US/UK/German citizens who want to take their "right" of aliyah do so, but they lose their Western citizenship. One-in one-out. Pay the Palestinians the value of their property and the Palestinians can move with their new citizenship to the West.
Any person who revokes their citizenship under the scheme is permanently disbarred from acquiring it again. That is to prevent a scenario where one member of a family keeps theirs in order to reapply for the revoker under a family reunification process later.
