Israel Launches strike against Irans Nuclear Programme

I doubt very much they would totally stop oil and gas leaving the Gulf, more so what the Houthi's did in the Red sea and limit the shipments going to those supporting the US and Israel. Japan would be totally screwed in that case seen as they import everything.

Yeah, condemning them for genocide and for starving a population deserves no criticism alright.

We should be celebrated them instead.

What an absurd dishonest post. The US and Israel couldn't care less about the Iranian people, they're not doing this to be anyone's saviour and even if they were they don't get to decide this course of action.

The vulgarity of mentioning 'human rights' in a post about one country that is slaughtering children amd starving those it doesn't kill and doing so with the full support of their friends in the US and in the EU is shameful.

So it's acceptable for the US to bomb Iran like that on behalf of Israel but Iran can't retaliate in any way ? It's a sad 2025 world we live in when certain countries seem to have total and utter immunity from every act.

earlier reports of russians removing workers from site .. probably needs to be taken out as part of Israeli defence plan in any event

..

V good - a logical, empathetic, common sense post to counter the bile

Have the houthis disappeared ? I thought they were still a fighting force.

Israel has multiple times played the nuclear card. In 1967, they planned to detonate a nuclear weapon on a mountain in Sinai. In 1973 they threatened to strike Arab targets unless the USA resupplied and rearm them after the initial defeats in the Yom Kippur war.

Nuclear threats are part and parcel of Israel's military history.

Surely any country that threatens nuclear brinkmanship isn't one that is responsible enough to hold the ability to detonate such weapons.

Neither France or the UK have ever threatened a nuclear strike to get their way and both acknowledge they are nuclear powers, are party to the NPT and IAEA. You do see the difference there don't you?

British Airways cancelled flights between London’s Heathrow Airport and Dubai and Doha on Sunday following US strikes on Iran and fears that the situation in the Middle East could deteriorate.

No date for resumption yet

Have you in your 7200+ posts said at least once anything condemning of Russia? North Korea?

all those times you spent drooling at Russian propaganda and their narratives of Europe “freezing” only to be proven wrong time and time again, same again gonna happen here

@Akrasia will be along any moment now to say to you, where is that quote, oh here it is

Was around 3 mins.

I'm not looking for anyone.

You said:

"How is our airspace being used?" and posted the ADSB exchange screenshot

when shown another ADSB Ex screenshot of USAF tankers which were dragging at least 8 x F-22's (which the Pentagon confirmed are being used as part of the build up in the Middle East for a potential Iranian strike) flying through sovereign airspace… you go into gaslight dismissive mode…

It's hilarious.

For the record.. They should just fly them over Dublin IMO, at least everyone pretending stuff doesn't transit Irish (Sovereign) airspace, not using Mode-S, would stop, and we'd get to see some interesting flights.

Right now Iranian regime only has bad and worse options with one theocratic Middle Eastern regime and their doomsday cult backers in the American Taliban heartlands, while it’s Russian allies try to put distance with their “ally”

Now if Iran responds by doing what war hawks like @brickster69 are praying for and targets shipping in the Gulf they endup going from one problem to half a dozen or more problems as Saudis, Emiratis etc are armed to the teeth with same weapons which already destroyed Iranian defences

And of course they will have a problem with China who is the main destination for the gulf oil, sea mines can’t selectively tell difference between ships regardless of whatever daft fantasies our resident Tass loudspeaker harbours
