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

When did this alleged ban start?? Can you give me the exact date??

The Israeli government has issued new directives restricting how its media covers its current war with Iran.

On Wednesday, a circular from Israel’s military censor, Brigadier General Kobi Mandelblit, announced new rules on what Israeli media organisations and journalists within the country can – and cannot – publish about the effect of Iranian strikes.

How does Israel restrict its media from reporting on the Iran conflict?

The military censor has introduced a slew of new restrictions on journalists covering the unfolding war.

Even with censorship in place, it would be virtually impossible to hide from the public that 1/3 of Tel Aviv was destroyed.
Reason being there are private satellite companies that anyone can pay to have satellite pics taken of the entire city of Tel Aviv.
There's nothing the Israeli government can do to stop that.

Another example of Isreal doing it too


The Ichilov hospital is a military base in disguise with underground military facilities and tunnels to IDF military headquarters in 450m radius of hospital.

Ridiculous fake nonsense. You just post propaganda from twitter.

That the CIA and Mossad HQs are building compounds within cities does not make it "human shielding", that's as dumb as being pro-Russia.
 
An earthquake has been reported in Iran, with its epicenter located in the area of the Fordow nuclear facility.

1) Israel or US took out the turbines.
2) Iran tested a nuke
3) Random eearthquake

Which one is it?

Yeah, 5.1 magnitude. The USGS tracker currently appears to have the epicenter closer to Parchin Military Base than Fordow.




So coincidence or a VERY big bomb?

Enrichment facility, or Ayatollah's bunker?

On a side note, I was doing some reading on the Fordow Enrichment facility and apparently the facility has an Achilles heal, of sorts.

In order to get down to 90 meters through bedrock, the Iranians burrowed a fairly straight shaft that is "camouflaged". If Israeli intelligence has determined the exact coordinates for the shaft in question, it might be possible, with a precision strike, to reach the facility with a single bomb.

Also, I would expect a deep penetrating large bomb would be necessary to register a 5.1 earthquake.

If Hamas boobytraps a building I'm about to clear as an IDF soldier, and I am holding a Hamas soldier as a captive, you better believer I'm using his a a human shield to go clear the building that fecker just boobytrapped.

Why the hell should I risk one of my soldiers or K9's to do that, if he was the one who wanted kill us in the first place??!!!
 
Except, as your article shows, they aren’t using “Hamas soldiers”(which is still a war crime); they are using innocent civilians.

As your article details, not only that, but on at least one occasion other Israeli thugs gunned down the human shield because they hadn’t been told who he was.

Hamas held fair democratic elections a decade ago, so if that prisoner voted Hamas then yeah, he's now my human shield.

Dont like it, then dont vote for terrorists. Simple, really

The elections were almost twenty years ago at this point. Your article describes a sixteen year old being used as one of the human shields.

Israel proudly elected Menachim Begin, a terrorist, PM. Does that mean all Israelis can be used as human shields?
 
You never heard the saying: All is fair in love and war
 
Iran short on long range missiles and launchers

So then how would have any cause to condemn Hamas for massacring hundreds of Israeli civilians, Desert Storm? All is fair in love and war and all that, is it not?
