Reports stating that Israel have launched an attack against Iran
Was discussed on today’s Iran the Latest
Oh and apparently Ahmadenijad ain’t dead like was mentioned earlier
You honestly think they’ll do an investigation into it?
If they find out that it was an USA/Israeli missile will they admit to it and release the reasoning as to how it occurred?
There’s already been a debunked “evidence of Iranian missile failure” on this thread.
This will be in the same pile as all those 'investigations' Israel did in Gaza i.e. in the bin
Ireland should really stop allowing Shannon to be used as a stop over for American military. It's only aiding American to keep going with Israel.
In two whole years of these guys standing out there every single Thursday, I have never once heard a single chant about freedom for Ukraine. Not a single sign, not a single chant condemning Putin, nothing about Russia's invasion. It is complete and utter silence.
There was, literally, a large rally in Dublin on the 22nd Feb to mark the fourth year of Russia's invasion of the Ukraine.
You're only seeing what you want to see.
I think it's safe to say at this point that anything coming out of both the US and Israel can be discounted as lies in part or in whole.
Why would Ukraine or Russia had anything to do with it? Was it thrown here just in case to keep fires going? And yes, you are wrong. Israel see Turkey as existential threat. Turkey is just next in line after Iran.
the perception of Turkey as a threat has grown in Israeli discourse, particularly from 2024–2026:

More than likely a terror bombing to frighten the populace.
The nations doing the bombing are certainly not above such things.
The killing of children in any circumstance is abhorrent.
The Hind Rajab case is appalling, horrific and a War Crime. Netanyahu is "at large" from the ICC where he is wanted for War Crimes. He refuses to attend The Hague even though he vehemently denies the crime.
I just hope that one day, when he's travelling, that an emergency landing is required to an ICC signatory country and they arrest him and bring him to face justice. Especially for the killing of Hind Rajab.
She lay dead in the car for two weeks after a 60 ton Merkava battle tank (crew of 4) riddled it with bullets. Then killed the two medics who arrived in an ambulance to save her.
None of this was a mistake. The perpetrators remain free.
Undoubtedly, so will those responsible for the killing of the schoolgirls.
And make no mistake about Israel and the killing of children in Gaza. In two years the IDF killed 1000 children who didn't reach their first birthday. That's 10 babies every single week.
We're witnessing the 'Israelisation' of the US -a terrorist state dragging them down to their level.
Perhaps. But they're desperate.
What Iran is saying with these attacks on US interests in other countries is that we can reach you.
This whole thing is an absolute mess, instigated by Israel with a nodding, compliant, idiot in the White House playing along without the first bloody clue at how any of this is going to proceed.
It's all a deeply, deeply, unfunny joke with no punchline.
And 3 days ago Iranians in Dublin were out celebrating and waving old Iranian and American flags after learning about the death of the Aytollah
Tis great living in a country where you can protest and gather without fear of being murdered, imprisoned or deliberately blinded
And vote for elected representatives, or tactically against representatives such as that bunch of Putins stooges that got booted out last election
Does anybody - especially Navy or Army - know if there was a safe way to have warned the frigate to surrender or go to nearest port - kind of "a shot across the bow" ?
Seems to have been a few thousand miles from the theatre so not an immediate threat.
Could they or another vessel or plane have issued a warning by radio say?
Sure the US are not following stupid terms of engagements now, theyre playing to win these days
Hundreds of thousands killed in Syria by chemical weapons?
Is this from the same source as your figures about the number of Iranian protesters killed or are you just making things up. Again.
Of course instead of a link providing proof of your claim I expect invective, ad hominem, something about the far left, maybe a mention of Wallace and Daly and a further smattering of personal insults.
But ZERO evidence to back up your claim of hundreds of thousands killed in Syria by chemical weapons. Prove me wrong.
winning does not look like a mass-grave of kiddy-sized, white coffins. That is definitely not winning in my book. Kids sent by loving guardians to school, in their little uniforms, with their little bags and play-things, that will never return home to their families. They will remain eternally young and their lives will remain bitterly unlived
Turkey also houses another of the vital BMD AEW radars, similar to the one hit in UAE.
Destroying or defrading those radars, would seriously degrade the THAAD and Arrow long range intercept by reducing reaction times. It also adds further chaos to the mix.
War crimes ARE war crimes. Those committing them may not be brought to justice if they are western but they are still war criminals and will be recorded in history as war criminals.
I see the "war power" vote failed to pass the US Senate.
And when asked about US progress in the war against Iran, Trump said "15 out of 10".
Strong rumours that Iranian Kurds are about to betray Iran. This could bring Turkey into that north-western corner of the war.

Recorded in history as war crimes?
Not at all. They will be celebrated as the victors will write the history.
656,500 dead in Syria, some of whom died due to the use of chemical weapons by Assad and his Russian and Iranian buddies
Is that better for you? I noticed you keep nitpicking to deflect from the crimes for some bizzare reason, in the process exposing the moral bankruptcy of the far left whom don’t realise just how similar they are to the far right in Israel and US they so despise
There’s a clear pattern of deflecting, downplaying and distracting from deaths when it doesn’t suit your narrative because apparently some people’s deaths are more tragic than others when it comes to the Middle East, especially if those deaths are caused by your <insert favourite dictatorship here>
I think what the poster you're replying to means is that the US (along with Israel) don't want to be bound by the rule of law with regards to warfare. "Stupid rules of engagement" as Pete Hegseth put it a couple of days ago.
They want to be free to commit war crimes without international bodies passing judgement on them.
In the case of the senior partner in this war, Israel, they've shown over the past couple of years that they're more than happy to flout the rules of engagement, because they've leveled every single civilian building, every hospital, every aid station, every school in Gaza. They even bombed refugee stations where people trying to escape their bombs gathered for safety and deliberated starved the population.
If it's an angle being pushed by the US as tacit approval then it's probably as likely as Israel's promotion of another Shah. The Kurds didn't suffer in Iran like they did in Iraq under Saddam. Iranian Kurds fought alongside Iranian Jews against Iraq in the 80s.
The murdered have their families, their friends, and people who abhor atrocities. There are many courts and many histories and those believing in a god may find out if their superstitions about a maker are true.

No
The IDF are meeting fierce resistance in south Lebanon. Looks like Musk was leaned on. Very little news coming out of Israel today on X.
Bingo Far left!
You are nothing if not predictable.
Were you not the poster who, before the current war on Iran started said that if Iran initiated an attack any resulting deaths would be murder and then had to concede if Israel or the US initiated an attack it would also be murder. Was that you or a completely different poster?
That's not how submarine warfare works. It's all about stealth.
You're absolutely right. And that's why that incident is definitely a major f..ck up by someone. Most likely American.
