Reports stating that Israel have launched an attack against Iran
Because some of them value their own lives, if Iran attacks US bases and assets, then you can be sure the US response will be swift and big
I didn't mean to come across as defending the Shah's repressive actions. More to say that all the Iranian people I know, and am still in contact with, and the majority of the people they themselves are speaking to would rather be living under the previous regime.
As far as I know, there is no civilian use or benefit to enrich to 60%. So why have the Iranians done this?
At 70% they have the makings of a bomb, but the goal is 90%.
To say that the Iranians are innocent here doesn't make sense given the fact that they have already enriched nuclear fuel to 60% for no apparent reason.
"This morning, Iran's terrorist dictators fired missiles at Soroka Hospital in Beersheba and at civilians in the centre of the country. We will make the tyrants in Tehran pay a heavy price," Mr Netanyahu claimed in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

Just wondering does Netanyahu actually get the bitter irony of his post considering how the IDF have been indiscriminately bombing hospitals and killing civilians in Gaza for the past two years?
Will the US run away big-
Like from the Taliban / Afghanistan-
NK haven't spent decades saying they will wipe out their nearest neighbour and sponsored terrorist organisation to attack said neighbour on a continuous basis .
Israeli hospital bombed by Iran-
Boo -
When Israel bombed hospitals in GAZA they said it was because of a military reason-
If Iran says there was a military presence in that Israeli hospital- will they be believed-?-
it is a load of baloney
They have zero reasons to be enriching above 5%
This article explains well what uranium enrichment is
You don't get it. If the regime get toppled, they will all be killed. So when they're cornered, their only slim chance to survive is to drag everyone else into a regional conflict, or if they're doomed either way, then they have nothing to lose by bombing America
Propaganda wars are part and parcel of conflict - below is probably a piss take but look at all the piss take from Israel over the decades to justify their ever increasing resume of war crimes
It seems the main targets were close by, if the footage of what was hit is real it would not exist. Unreal footage if it is true, no doubt we will find out soon enough.
Goal posts being moved to satisfy the narrative
it will be boo hoo if trump decides to use something like iran bombing israeli hospital to enter the war
If the 'Iranians aren't innocent' what are they guilty of? I think you mean the Israelis. They are the ones that illegally acquired nuclear weapons and have tried to hide them from the world and won't allow inspections in line with international law. And did it through terrorism.
Quite frankly, the only way to bring stability and peace to the middle east is to allow them to build nukes then the Israelis will leave them alone.
It is likely the medical centre / hospital was not directly hit otherwise there would be casualities. It is very likely Iran targetted a military facility adjacent to the medical centre - now why would any country have military facilities in the middle of a city and beside a hospital?
Only because it will be used as a propaganda piece - Israel has normalised targetting hospitals over the last 18 months so why would Israel and the US complain if that is what Iran did actually target?
And just to add to my point, if they value their own lives, then they would never launch a first strike against Israel, therefore the threat that Netanyahu said demands an urgent response simply does not exist.
It is a contradiction to say 'We have to destroy their nuclear capability because they are crazy enough to nuke Israel', while also believing that they would not attack western assets in the gulf because that would mean America would destroy them
Regardless or whether or not regional neighbours are happy Israel has nukes - absolutely no one wants Iran to get them. The chances of a nuclear conflict in the region increase dramatically.
The "but it's not fair" argument doesn't mean anything when it comes to geopolitical realities.
The USS Vincennes mistook the Iranian airliner for an Iranian F 14 Tomcat.
Just "mistook" it….that makes it ok then. You miss the salient point in your "analysis" in relation to using 'payback' as justification.
Can Iran not move their gear deeper underground while Trump watches Fox news, eats a few burgers and is told what to say?
I don't believe the aim is to destroy their nuclear stockpile. I would say it's more to overthrow the leadership and force a regime change.
Maybe then Israel will leave them alone - you mean like how Iran has left Israel alone since 1979 by pouring funds in to Hamas and Hezbollah and other various militias, and regularly threatening to destroy Israel?
Weird how Israel had completely normal relations with Iran until 1979 and continues to have peaceful relations with previous enemies like Egypt and only has problems with countries with direct links to…..Iran.
Poor, noble, innocent Iran. Just a fundamentalist jihadi regime trying to peacefully get by and Israel's picking on it from 2000km away for no reason whatsoever.
The US have long manufactured reasons to go to war. This is no different.
War is good business.
The IAEA have said that there is no proof that Iran have an active nuclear weapons program. Their report was that for the first time, they discovered some evidence of uranium particles in undisclosed locations and that for the first time, the Iranians were less than fully cooperative with inspections.
Iran are probably trying to develop nukes and given their situation, having been attacked by Israel last year, and again this year, would you blame them.
Israel have no moral high ground here, to say that Iran should meet its international obligations under a treaty they never even signed because they have their own illicit undeclared nuclear weapons program.
America have no moral high ground here given that Iran was fully complying with the nuclear weapons deal that was signed under Obama, when Trump unilaterally ripped it up in his first administration
And strategically, Iran only have to look to North Korea to see the benefit of having a nuclear weapon for deterrence. Trump has threatened to invade and attack the following countries Iran Greenland (and Denmark by proxy) Panama Venezuela Gaza Canada Mexico
Note, none of these countries have a nuclear weapon
Note also, the absence of North Korea from these threats since they have demonstrated that they have ICBMs that can reach America
And to this day, Israeli propagandists still point at that first missile attack on that first hospital and try to pretend that it was actually a Hamas rocket that killed all of those people.
They have absolutely zero credibility
Trump sh1te-
Will America run from Iran like it ran from Taliban / Afghanistan-?-
Big talk means nothing in a real war-
Incredibly stupid and naive.
If the Iranians get nukes, there is a huge threat to Europe from them. Death to the West is one of their favourite slogans.
These are troll CGI posts taking the piss out of IDF propaganda. The last one had a bunch of F-35s or something hidden in an apartment block and a Star Destroyer docked underneath.
One of Piers Morgan's guests pointed out that using Iranian chants is utterly disingenous and a fallback option for all Zionists, a get out card. These slogans of 'Death to the West' are just chest thumping for the domestic audience, not a statement of official foreign policy or their actual intentions.
Unless US can buy of Iranian generals like they did for Iraq and Syria there will be no chance of regime change if it doesn't come internally. I don't think US army will set foot in Iran. Unlike Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Iran is not a nation that was created with measuring tapes.
Non proliferation is the answer to this problem, mutual disarmament. As long as Israel has nukes, Iran is going to want some for self defense
