Israel Launches strike against Irans Nuclear Programme

Loud explosions are witnessed near Iran’s Fordo nuclear site, indicating Israeli strikes at the facility, Iran International reports.

The uranium enrichment facility is considered a crucial component of Iran’s nuclear program, but may be outside of Israel’s capabilities to completely destroy.

I am pointing out your hypocrisy whereby you condemn genocidal statements selectively- when Israeli government ministers have done so you have consistently denied it. To be clear are you still happy to defend a country that goes beyond utterances, that is actually committing genocide , while you claim to be against genocide?

So when you said it was official government policy and the only reason for Iran’s existence. What you meant was after you claimed that you Googled and found out that an MP said it and crowds have chanted it.
So by your definition “Mayo for Sam” is official Irish government policy.

Netanyahu isn't attacking Iran because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. That position is entirely disingenuous and you know it.

Into the bargain, one can be against Iran's support of Russia and also against what Israel is doing.

The only thing that is "clear cut" is that no matter what Israel does you'll support them, up to and including ethnic cleansing and genocidal actions.

Pfft…you asked "But are you disagreeing that Israel's actions in Iran are (among other things) making EUROPE (e.g. Ukraine) safer?" implying that Netanyahu's attack on Iran is, somehow beneficial to Europe because it will aid the Ukraine.

There is no "strawmanning" and no "whataboutery". You made a disingenuous implication.

Israel's "actions" in Iran doesn't make Europe any safer. In fact, it causes instability. Netanyahu's reckless decision to attack Iran now, right when they were in the middle of talks with the US about the possible reopening the JCPOA, results in more uncertainty for both Europe and the Middle East.

If Iran were open to reigniting talks about giving up or limiting any pursuit of nuclear ambitions (which they were already complying with under the JCPOA until Trump ripped up the agreement), you can be sure that there are a lot of heads over there now saying that they should quicken their endeavours because of Israel's attack.

Where in Khameni's words do you see genocide against Israel or Jews? Zionism is a movement. Not all Jews are zionists and there are non jew zionists also which supports the idea. Notably majority of past and present US and Western administrations. Israeli governments have been good at twisting words of others to suit their agendas and to brain wash their people.

According to Israel no one can have nukes in ME except them. One way or other they have fooled US and west into Iraq, Syria and Libya using same context of nukes and wmds and fooling people of those countries to think they will have democracy. Now they are doing same for Iran. After Iran i think Pakistan is next in the line. They already have nukes but one way or other one day we will hear Pakistan is planning genocide against zionists, jews, israelis what ever you fancy to call. Israel is not working nor cares about world peace.

"And coming up next on Iran state TV....."

Israel went from trying to get the Iranians to have a revolution to threatening them inside a few days

Israel's defence minister has warned that Tehran's residents will "pay the price" for Iranian attacks on Israeli citizens

Where has he been last 2 years. He must think IDF is picking olives in Gaza.

What was it Netenyahu said to the citizens of Iran “our quarrel is not with you”.
Now it’s “you will die!”

He is such a scumbag and the Israeli population are equally complicit, nearly all of them support both this war and the endless murder of Palestinians.

“It is the mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to erase Israel from the map of the region.” - Khamenei, 2001

“Israel is a cancerous tumor that must be removed.” - Khamenei, 2000's

Pakistan? They've had nuclear weapons since the 90's. Nothing will happen there.

Israel is a small vulnerable nation historically surrounded by enemies which have made multiple attempts to wipe them out. Israel will never take risks in that regard, especially when they have the ability to do something about reducing or stopping those risks.

Then we have the Iranian regime. Who have spent years firing missiles by proxy at their highly sensitive and nuclear armed neighbour, whilst developing a peaceful program that is showing signs to the contrary, whilst calling for the destruction of said neighbour. A neighbour which holds all the cards in the region. Who is highly pissed off recently.

Poking the hornets nest doesn't even begin to cover it.
