Breaking: Israel launches 'preemptive strike' against Iran, declares state of emergency

Sure, and Germany was just reacting to the way it's been treated by its neighbors before WWII.

He highlights multiple articles going way back that kept claiming Iran was on the precipice of having nuclear weapons:

 
What do you think of Modi funding Putin’s war buying his oil?
How about Trump needing higher oil prices for ‘his’ oil workers.
Bibi starting another of his wars to stay in power helps his triangle

In some ways it was. War reparations and hyper inflation didn't go over very well..

So then why do you think Iran would use WMDs if they could?

This is what I don't understand as well.

I think it's pretty obvious that if Iran used nukes against Isreal then not only would Isreal nuke them back but most likely the US would as well so they would be completely wiped from the map.
That's like me punching the wolrd heavyweight champion in the face and then thinking things will go really well from that point onwards.
I have a feeling things would go very badly for me.

Being the only few Iranians alive in a bunker somewhere in Iran is not what I'd call winning.
Surely they aren't that stupid?
 
Indeed. Nukes would just serve as a defensive deterrent like it does with everyone else.
 

This is where the Islamophobes point to suicide bombers as if Ayatollahs and Presidents carry out suicide bombings.
 
Where Iranian air defense? Not good for customers of Soviet hardware.

Are you saying they didn't claim all these times that Iran was close to having nuclear weapons?

No. I'm saying that you should really stop listening to stupid sources (and liking posts featuring antisemitic conspiracy theories).

For example, the way you were given this list here:


Strips these statements of their context, and ignores the fact that Israel and the US have been in a 20+ year covert effort to delay and disrupt that development, so as to put off today as long as possible. It tries to ignore that in order to give folks a deliberately wrong impression.


Well, that day is here, now, but, whoever gave you this list without the context of things like stuxnet and other semi-public efforts is either stupid themselves, or assumes that you are.


So that's why you should stop listening to those kinds of accounts, Nola. They make you look bad.


Tucker fan?

So it was accurate and I don’t care that you don't like it.

Pointing out that Israel and the US has been lying about Iran is about to havr nuclear weapons is antisemitic? That only works on dumb people.
You can't even come up with a good excuse. Ignores context? Nope it's just lies similar to Sadamm had WMD.

You probably have some excuses why Israel hasn't really been committing genocide.

You aren't interested in context because I posted a clip that had plenty of context which you ignored:

Anyone with a brain and who isn't brainwashed by the military industrial complex knows that they have been lying about Iran for years. Russia and Iran are the military industrial complex favorite boogeymen to warrant sending more of our tax money for weapons and war.

You cant even back up your own arguments. You should stop shilling for Israel.
 
You’ve already admitted Iran wouldn’t nuke Israel because of MAD. Therefore, your entire narrative holds no water

There have been numerous riots and uprisings against the government in recent times.
Iranians in general want democracy. But the Islamic elite retains a strong grip of power.

Starting in 2017 here's a list of recent protests:

A protest against Hijabs or inflation is not a "I hope the Little Satan and the Great Satan invade us!"

As somewhat terrifying as the above may be, I'm inclined to a agree with you.

Even if Iran HAD nukes, they wouldn’t attack Israel because Israel has nukes. Or if the Iranians DID attack Israel, they’d get nuked themselves.
