Reports stating that Israel have launched an attack against Iran
Wave 3 just landed from the look of it. All these fancy weapons can't do anything can they, looks like they have just about run out of air defence already or they have been blown up.
Fake news
“Kill or be killed” sounds brave until you realise it’s the same logic used by every empire and dictatorship in history.
Hitler wrote “The stronger must dominate and not blend with the weaker.”
Just because you can strike first doesn’t make it righteous. It just means you’ve convinced yourself that domination is the only option.
Absolutely none of the above challenges what I said, even if I agree with the bulk of it.
The fact still remains that Israel wouldn't be attacking Iran if Iran had a way of dealing with Israel in a meaningful manner, irrespective of their "sabre rattling" or anything else.
Yeah in a sunshine a lollipops world . But we don't live in one.
clucking bell
Israel are the judge and jury for all their acts of terrorism and here you are giving them a free pass
This is exactly it.
But thanks to the brainwashing by the American right everything is punted as "us vs them" so clowns think that anyone who thinks Isreal's actions are disgusting must absolutely love Iran and their own terrible bastrds in charge.
Are you talking about Isreals Iron Doom or the Iranian missiles?
I think both countries are just as bad but Isreal is the worst and the most advanced as well as capable. They are still war mongers though especially Natanyawho. They way they went about iraditicating and trying to destroy Hamus in Gaza was and is just wrong and there must be a million war crimes there against Isreal. Hopefully someday Natanyawho and Isreal will have to stand triall for what they have done to the palastinian people in Gaza and the West Bank too.
I will have to buy a new microwave and a mountain of corn if it’s not fake news and the remains of missiles Iran using contains components with Cyrillic writing
Yeah what friends Israel are to ukraine. Even Iran abstained. Not denying Iran are supplying weapons to Russia and both of their leadership are scum but let’s not make out Israel is some righteous good agent in this.
Israel joined the US and Russia in voting against a United Nations General Assembly resolution calling to reaffirm Ukraine’s territorial integrity on Monday, rejecting a strongly worded condemnation of Russia’s invasion of its neighbor on the war’s third anniversary.
Alongside Israel, the US and Russia, opponents of the resolution included Russia, North Korea, Hungary and 13 others. Argentina, the United Arab Emirates, China and Iran were among the 65 those who abstained.

So Israel strikes Iran first and then the US steps in to intercept Iran's retaliation on Israel. No end in sight for this, it's so depressing
No we dont.
But maybe the problem isn't the world...it's how you've decided to live in it?
Have you seen any recent photos of Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
My son is in Tolka Park, he text and said The Shels fans burst into a chant of Tel Aviv is falling down and the Rovers fans joined in
Followed by a long Free Palestine chant
Sweet Jesus

Whoever said football fans aren't the brightest
Looks like the destruction of Israeli's air defence proves they are positioning them in civilian areas
Talking pure shite.
Iran are not suicidal. If they want they want a nuke as a deterrent because they are constantly being threatened and attacked. They wouldn't strike Israel first.
If Israel want to stop others from seeking nuclear weapons, they should dismantle their own nukes and sign up to a mutual non proliferation agreement
No way are they positioning them there afterall we have nothing but bleating from Israeli apologists over the years about how others position theirs in civilian areas therefore those civilians had to be slaughtered in order to get to the military targets
Iran are constantly being threatened and attacked, because they're constantly funding proxies to attack Israel for decades, threatening the existance of Israel for same, and attempting to build a nuclear weapon for much of same.
You can be assured that no-one in the region or wider world wants a fundementalist country like Iran to have nuclear weapons, it's not unique to Israel.
Pretending that Iran is just peacefully existing while Israel is war-mongering on them does the argument no favors.
I haven't in fairness, I understand that they are thriving though. I would think that Israel, considering its stance so far in Gaza, would be fairly aggressive and would not stop until it ran out of nukes or was stopped from firing them. I believe the weapons themselves have become far more powerful, hopefully we never see it.
If we can return to reality for a moment there's a difference between firing offensive weapons from civilian areas and regular military buildings and defensive AA batteries being located in urban areas.
Yeah yeah yeah… bleating bleating bleating
If you can't distinguish between a regular military building in an urban area, or a defensive AA battery in an urban environ for obvious defensive reasons, and an insurgent command post embedded in an apartment building or other public building, or people firing offensive weapons from civilian buildings, then there's no point discussing it.
You do realise that every military in the world has regular military buildings in urban areas, including Ireland.
Anti air weapons are legitimate military targets
Israel won't be turning the Middle East into a charnel inany case. Saudi and most of the large players are Isreal-aligned.
Trump was a guest of honour at big shindig in Dubai recently and praised his hosts to the hilt.
Clash reports might be sniffing glue...

Ok thanks. How did Iran get such advanced missiles?
The archeological evidence is there to show they lived there. Same can't be said for the Gazans.
