Israel launches attack on Iran

[4thgenheel]

How that is overlooked while he is arguing about Israel violating human rights is just insane.

lmao, spare us.

your side wants the fundamentalist Christian version of that type of thing in the united states.

if you gave a flying fuck about women or the lgbtq community you wouldn't vote republican, PERIOD.

 

[RaiGuy]

Why are they being starved (your words)? What has happened to the aid that was sent?

My words, huh? so you don't believe that the population is being starved?

As for the aid, Israel has blocked the aid going in and then created a fake aid group with the US called "Gaza Humanitarian" and armed an ISIS-adjacent gang to run it.
Aid was being delivered fine during the ceasefire when it was actually controlled by humanitarian groups.

. . .. Israel would never harm the US. . . ..

Link: Jonathan Pollard - Wikipedia
In addition to the information in the Wikipedia article, Pollard gave information to Israel about movements and patrol areas of US ballistic missile submarines. Israel then traded this information to the Soviet Union in exchange for Jewish nuclear weapon scientists who then greatly improved Israel's nuclear weapons arsenal. I fail to see how disclosing movements of US nuclear missile submarines to the Soviet Union and greatly improving Israel's nuclear weapons inventory do not represent harm to both the United States and world peace.

ETA1: The Israeli spy who was Pollard's handler and who Israel repeatedly refused US attempts to extradite for trial in the US was granted a full pardon by Donald Trump on the afternoon January 20, 2021. Whatever Kompromat Russia has on St. Donald of Mar-a-Lago, apparently either the Soviet Union or Russia shared some of it with Israel.

ETA2: During one of Bill Clinton's negotiations trying to defuse tensions in the Middle East, Israel asked President Clinton to pardon Pollard on the condition that Pollard relocate to Israel and never return to the US. President Clinton initially agreed to the request in exchange from some compromises from Israel. However, military and civilian members of the US national security apparatus quickly briefed President Clinton on the full extent of what Pollard had actually done. Once informed of the magnitude of the harm Pollard had inflected on the United States, President Clinton withdrew his offer to pardon Pollard.

Sounds like Iranian counterattack may be imminent …

Lol at your characterization of no regulatory oversight as if that deal actually achieved regulatory oversight. When you allow the inmate to dictate when and what part of the cell the guards can inspect you have no oversight. Trump rightfully ditched it because it was completely feckless. So if you are making the argument that obama's deal would have kept Iran from acquiring a bomb then you are just wrong.

Another thing Callatoroy is an expert on.

This is the kind of stupid that throws away an umbrella during a thunderstorm because you're dry.

What’s the answer? I am interested.
I said Palestine and Iran kill people for being gay and treat women like property. You said that’s Islamophobia. I asked if what I said was incorrect. You didn’t answer.

Do Palestine and Iran support gay rights? Do they treat women equally? Should be easy to answer. Just yes or no.

You are conflating Palestinians with Hamas.
Also, Palestinian women are treated equally.

So basically, you justify the actions of Israel (including the starvation of a population) because you believe that strongly in gay rights?

Final question, who did you vote for in the last election? hmm

What about in Iran?

I have never voted for Trump. Not once. Nice try though.

 

[Callatoroy]

I didn't mean it as absolute equals. But Isreals leadership is far from perfect and without reproach.

ALL of these countries need to wake up to the destruction their inability to co exist creates.

Isn't that a little naive. Its only been thousands of years

Your solution is to allow hamas to hide behind the skirts of Palestinian women so Israel won't eliminate them so they can attack Israel all over again? That is what it sounds like to me. Palestine needs to stand up to hamas in order to help themselves.

Well, yeah. It has been thousands of years. But it has only been in the last couple of decades that they acquired enough nuclear weapons to start an Armageddon that could engulf the entire world.

 

[Ramrouser]

At the very least, the US has established total credibility with the Iranians in the ongoing negotiations. Trump stopped Israel from conducting this raid in April asking for time for negotiations to take place. He then spends the next 2 months telling the Iranians to cut a deal or "very bad things will happen" and that Israel has the very best equipment supplied by the US. Iran goes with the hardliners and drags their fee. They've now paid the price with their scientists and hard liners killed.

You are just like silence and the rest.

You are literally celebrating unnecessary death.

It's the fucking 21st century and these moron leaders still act like the world is just a bunch of waring tribes.

I'm celebrating a successful military raid/campaign that might end up saving millions of lives if Iran is prevented from developing the bomb.

I'm sure there are civilian deaths but most appear to be the Iranian Revolutionary Guard generals.

There is so much idiocy with that statement that I'm not wasting my time with you.

 

[Ramrouser]

Yes Iran has issues, so does Isreal.

How is this good for the US?

It's generally a good thing if Iran and its allies can be weakened. They are the cause of most of the conflict in the region via Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis. Israel and the other Arab states are moving closing via the Abraham Accords.

Iran isn't going to be able to do anything significant. Their proxy allies have been decimated.

If I was an Iranian mullah, and of course I'm not, my attitude might be something like, "oh you don't want us to have plutonium? OK, then, we'll deliver it you" in the form of a radiological bomb.

I believe there is a humanitarian crisis in Palestine created by hamas's tactics of hiding behind skirts and under hospitals. I also believe Israel is justified in eliminating hamas as much as humanly possible. Stopping now only ensures hamas will attack Israel in the future. You seem to be hung up in this narrative that Palestine is completely blameless and Israel is the bad guy. I'm not arguing Israel's virtue or it being blameless for past offenses. I'm talking about what threats it faces today and what it should do today to secure its future.

Ordinarily, I would dismiss this story as nothing but fear mongering from some liberal webpage seeking hits and subscriptions by enflaming and twisting St. Donald of Mar-a-Lago's words into some idiotic rant by a pre-teen boy trying to prove he is the toughest kid on the playground. Except this rant is just another day in St. Donald's incoherent dotage, impotent rage, and illogical ravings.
