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

I liked the fact he said he never supported a terrorist nation. If you're beefing with me over that like, it probably means you're on the wrong side of the debate, whatever it is.

Did you like my post for not supporting a terrorist nation? If not you might be on the wrong side of history. ;)
 
ALL the HISTORICAL DOCUMENTS showing how Zionist Louis Brandeis convinced his good buddy Woodrow Wilson to join WW! so that Israel could get their BALFOUR DECLARATION are depicted there

How were the Jews involved in assassinating the Archduke... and didn't the Jews invent Mustard Gas?

Iran has been supplying arms and munitions to Russia for years to support the Biden war against Ukraine.

It would be idiotic to think Russia would not provide mutual aid. These "hypersonic" missiles that barely reach the speed of sound that Iran is using are at least Russian designed, if not outright Russian manufactured.

Standard Disclaimer: This shows that China did not share the hypersonic technology (they stole from the USA) with the Iranians or the Russians.
There is no Biden war. Making stupid excuses for Putins land grab is idiotic.

Israel’s defence minister Israel Katz on Monday warned that Tehran’s residents would “pay the price” for Iranian strikes on Israeli civilians, after overnight missile attacks killed several.

“The boastful dictator from Tehran has turned into a cowardly murderer, deliberately firing at Israel’s civilian home front in an attempt to deter the (Israeli military) from continuing the offensive that is crippling his capabilities,” Katz wrote on his Telegram channel, as reported by AFP. “The residents of Tehran will pay the price - and soon".

Criticising Iran for targeting civilians, and then saying Iranian civilians will be targeted. In the same post.

Your interpretation of pay the price is that they will be targeted? Israel never targets civilians it targets military and regime infrastructure and personnel. Regime infrastructure such as energy sources being targeted - as Katz threatened will be the result of Iran targeting Israel's civilian population - will cause Iranian citizens obviously and clearly to pay a price for the regime's actions.

"residents will pay the price" is pretty clear -- he is vowing to make them pay the price, which means targeting them.

An Eye For An Eye, A Tooth For A Tooth Will Leave the Whole World Blind and Toothless.

Killing civilians is like shooting fish in a barrel.

 
"residents will pay the price" is pretty clear

Katz on twitter now: "I would like to clarify the obvious: there is no intention to physically harm the residents of Tehran as the murderous dictator does against the residents of Israel.The residents of Tehran will be forced to pay the price of dictatorship and evacuate their homes from areas where it will be necessary to attack regime targets and security infrastructure in Tehran.We will continue to protect the residents of Israel."

Seems pretty obvious. Israel targets regime and military infrastructure and personnel. Iran targets civilians pure and simple.
 
Both sides have plenty of weaponry -- Israel getting replenished by the USA, and Iran is also getting replenished by its friends.
Neither side is running out of missiles anytime soon.

Iran is being resupplied with fresh weaponry from China:

 
They're Neo-Colonial Revivalists

Meanwhile there are Neo-Con counterparts in the US.

Trump's calculation -- he's gotten money & support from Adelson and other Israel-aligned wealthy donors in the past. Also, given his latest trade showdown with China has failed, he needs to change to a new script and change the headlines away from the TACO taunts. Middle East war provides a useful opportunity for doing this. The thing is, this war may get out of hand, with fires burning out of control.
Then what's he going to do?


 
"Between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty". Likud Charter, 1977. Think about that for a moment.

There should only be Israeli control of all Palestinian territory. Palestine is not a nation. It is a group of people ethnically related. They reside on land controlled by Israel.
"Controlled by" illegally, and occupied illegally. You know it, I know it, the rest of the world knows it. Only Israel's rapidly dwindling supporting nations don't want to acknowledge it. By the way, 146 from 193 UN member states (75% +/-), recognise Palestine as a state-and let me remind you that there was no such country as Israel for 2000 years before 1948.

"They [Arabs] see but one thing, we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?" David Ben Gurion, founding member of modern Israel.

That's where the regime change idea could fall flat - citizens could never pull it off imo.

Unless the army stages a coup.
Get the CIA in to orchestrate another coup, just as they did in 1953. America loves to preach 'democracy', but only if it's the acceptable variety and doesn't impact on American 'interests'-like Iran's oil reserves which US and British greed had decided was theirs to exploit, deposing a democratically elected prime minister in the process. It really isn't a mystery why Iran doesn't trust the West (America).
 
You haven't proved a point to disprove, you just made an assertion that the Israeli government is just as blinded by ideological hatred as the Islamist regime in Iran, and that's just factually untrue.

That which is claimed without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
It absolutely is. Netanyahu is propped up by radical far-right Zionists in his government. The entire Likud Charter, and the 'promised land' bollocks is a Zionist screed. Guess who leads the Likud party.


 
Oh, good. We're off the hook.

That's a relief.
He's right; demonising the vast majority for the actions of a very few is dangerously stupid. Look at what Israel has done to Gaza, for example. 50,000 dead innocents, hundreds of thousands displaced and homeless, those remaining alive experiencing genocide, because a few hundred Hamas fighters attacked Israel.

Iran is indeed a terror sponsoring state.
Your above drivel is just empty terrorist propaganda too, the numbers you post are completely fabricated, both the 50k innocents dead claim that not even Hamas makes (they count both the thousands of dead terrorists and the thousands of dead civilians together and their figures are not reliable) and the claim for "only a few hundreds Hamas" terrorists attacking Israel. Hamas has had over 30,000 combatants in its terrorist force involved in attacking Israel, and on the day of October 7 massacres thousands have crossed the border to conduct the atrocities.
 
Israel says it has full control over Tehran's skies as both sides continue strikes


Israel says it has complete control over Tehran’s skies. Given the Israeli Air Force’s ability to carry out multiple strikes over the capital over the past few days, that appears to be largely true. Israeli jets have been dropping guided bombs at relatively short range. In other words, it's not having to rely on long-range stand-off munitions like cruise missiles.
Iran’s ageing few fighter jets have posed no challenge. Even before this Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear programme, Israel had already destroyed a significant proportion of Iran’s air defences. Israel’s attack in October last year targeted Iran’s long-range, Russian-designed S300s. In this latest assault, Israel has continued to hit air defence radar and launchers.

But Justin Bronk, of the Royal United Services Institute (Rusi) defence think tank, says that while Israel may now have air superiority over Tehran, it does not have complete air dominance. Shorter-range air defences, like shoulder or vehicle launched portable ground-to-air missiles - of which Iran still has many - could still prove a threat. US fighter jets quickly gained air superiority over the Houthis in Yemen - but the Houthis were still able to shoot down a number of admittedly much slower US drones. Previous military campaigns in the Middle East, including the US-led strikes on Isis and Israel’s own relentless attacks on Hamas in Gaza, also illustrate the limitations of air power.

Destruction from the air does not necessarily lead to defeat.
 
Work toward a peaceful resolution? I don't even recall Israel and Iran holding serious talks.
There is no reason for Israel to work towards a peaceful resolution.

The ONLY country which can prevent Israel from taking over the entire middle east is , Iran hence it must be eliminated by any means

The CIA was finally successful in balkanizing Syria for Israel so Israel's size is about to double.

President Trump warned Iran not to attack US installations in the ME. That is a loud and clear signal to Israel to use its expertise in conducting FALSE FLAGS and blame Iran. Easy peasy.

The CIA will have no problem coercing or forcing President Trump into actively attacking Iran .

And so it ****ing goes.
