Israel/Palestine

I don’t think I can remember a war like this. Involving leaders on both sides who are internationally disliked.

One backed into a corner trying to distract from those missing 70 pages that include allegations of child rape and murder, along with evidence of corruption, human rights violations and war crimes, the second backed into a corner due to murder, corruption, genocide, war crimes and human rights violations and the man on the other side facing allegations of human rights violations, mass murder, corruption and war crimes.

I hope the rest of the world continues to stay out of this cock fight between the world’s most well known insecure “men”.

Unless it AI, I’ve seen buildings in Dubai getting hit

Seems crazy

They may get lucky with a rocket or two, but the reality is they don’t really have the capability to hurt those that are attacking them.

I have no clue what their drone/rocket inventory is like currently, I thought they had used the bulk against Israel and scored alot of hits against Tel Aviv a couple months ago.

I’d like to think the UK could stop a drone attack from hitting major cities, I’m not sure tbh

Listen to Sky News’ Wargames podcast to disabuse yourself of the notion the UK has functional air defences.

I was quite amazed to discover we have no anti ballistic missile capability apart from on a handful of Royal Navy destroyers.

The majority of the UK’s air defence has always come via the RAF and the Navy, rather than ground systems on the UK mainland.

We 100% could not. The RAF and Navy would struggle to take down even half of a significant Shahed attack and it would deplete pretty much all of our missile stores, we’re total sitting ducks - thankfully we’re just quite far away from most of our enemies.

BBC reporting unconfirmed reports the Supreme Leader of Iran is gone.

Oh no what an awful shame, I’m sure the thousands of innocent civilians executed by him are so upset and distraught

Look, Trump and anyone helping him can as always go fuck themselves. But that news would deserve a very sincere:

“Oh no. Anyway.”

I have no love for the Iranian regime but I will not get behind and support the actions of America and Israel. They are NOT doing this because they want to free the Iranian people and give them a better life they are doing this because they’re the only people in the region who stand up to the rogue state of Israel.

There is nothing well intentioned about this.

Mate, I don’t say this to get on your case, but you don’t strike me as someone particularly concerned with the wellbeing of Iranian civilians.

Yeah, no-one buys that this is about freeing brown muslims for the bloodthirsty zionist regimes in Tel Aviv and Washington DC who have engaged in a live-streamed genocide for the last 2 years.

Well, except a few maga retards* who are going to be really upset when their new Iranian neighbours move in.

*simply change the name for European equivalents, same thing applies.

I actually am for what it’s worth.

I went to school with a few Iranian diaspora and worked with a couple of others, who have done a great job of helping me to understand how secular Iran actually is and how this religious rule has been forced on them and the consequences it’s had on them and their families.

Now do I think Trump gives a shit? Absolutely not. He’s had a grudge against the Iranians since his first presidency.

But in this instance I think he’s doing the right thing for the wrong reasons, again.

Now if the Iranians topple the regime and then fall into and get the Prince back into power and they then behave in the same manner as the regime and nothing changes, well then I couldn’t give less of a shit. But they deserve the chance to go back to a secular society and way of life like they used to and so many of the diaspora can remember.

I also wouldn’t support putting troops on the ground there in any circumstance either - give the Iranian population the cover they need to rise up themselves.

You need to read some history about Iran’s Shah. The scenario you’re presenting already happened a long time ago and the people chose not to be ruled by a western puppet.

Name a nation that was better off after U.S. “regime change”.

The theocracy wont die because Khamenei is dead. Someone will simply take his place.

They would have prepared for this.
