Can't disagree, every nation has the right to defend itself.

To repeat immortal words of the sage
PiercePiers Morgan, "what should the Iranian government do?".-
They could try not constantly funding and training groups commiting terrorist acts.
-
Absolutely. And the Israelis should dismantle the apartheid, end the occupation, get the fuck on their side of their 1967 border, and recognize the sovereign Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza. Plus, they should hand over their war criminals to the ICC and start a Truth and Reconciliation process. Throw in paying reparations, because why the fuck not.
Somehow I don't think though that
PiercePiers Morgan would accept that as a valid answer when he was asking "what should the Israeli government do". Do you? Because if you do, I will also accept your answer about the terrorist groups. 100%. -

It's unlikely they'll attack before the election, if they do. They know every escalation is another vote for Trump, and even Iran doesnt want Trump in power. My guess is they're going to see who wins and what comes out of it before making any decisions.

Iran doesn’t want Trump in power
Why not, would you say?
-
Trump is an even bigger Zionist supporter than Biden, which is pretty impressive considering how much support Biden gives them.
On top of that, he also did a lot of bad things towards Iran when he was president like sabotaging a deal Obama setup meant to ensure Iran has no nukes in favor of less sanctions and better relations. He also assassinated their top general Soleimani.

No lies detected.
Godspeed.

What were soldiers doing in hospitals and schools? It's almost like they wanted to get themselves blown up!
Oh, my bad. Wrong place. I got it confused with this one:
Or maybe it was this one:
Israel strike on Gaza school-turned-shelter kills 17, hospital says
Damn, maybe it was this one:
Israeli attack closes last functioning hospital in north Gaza
Found it! I was thinking of this one:
Israeli shelling of Gaza school kills at least 22
Well, it's at least one of those.

What Iranian hospitals or schools did Israel hit?
Based on intelligence, IAF aircraft struck missile manufacturing facilities used to produce the missiles that Iran fired at the State of Israel over the last year. These missiles posed a direct and immediate threat to the citizens of the State of Israel. Simultaneously, the IDF struck surface-to-air missile arrays and additional Iranian aerial capabilities, that were intended to restrict Israel’s aerial freedom of operation in Iran. Source

Exactly. I guess the missile accuracy varies depending on the direction launched.

So all of article mention that the claims comes from the most immoral army in the world

I wonder how long these two will keep attacking each other in the name of their right to defend themselves. They should attack at the same time so both can say it was retaliation for the another's simultaneous attack, it's a perfect plan, both can say they got the last word and stop. Waiting for my Nobel peace prize.

So...what really happened? Israel says it did a "crippling" attack on all of Iran's air defenses and ability to make drones and missiles. Iran says it intercepted most of the attack, limiting the extent of the damage, though with some fatalities (as definitively noted in the article). I've heard conflicting accounts of whether Israel fired from outside Iranian airspace or whether they were doing laps around Tehran. I've seen multiple videos of Iran's air defense in action, but these can be cherry-picked.
Obviously there is going to be an enormous amount of censorship, propaganda, and straight up misinformation. Good luck getting actual good info.
-
I agree.
-
Damn straight.

“Alright, Israel has been a thorn in our side for too long! Launch the missiles!”
“Yes sir! Where shall we strike?”
“The outskirts of their cities in unpopulated, barren land. They need to know to fear us.”
“But sir, what if this merely causes them to accept that we are only a potential threat through our missiles and, given the absence of damage from our previous attack, they feel emboldened and destroy our manufacturing sites, silos, and launch pads.”
“Impossible. Strike their wastelands.”
Who could have seen this coming?
Edit: am I really the only one that saw this coming? Didn’t realize Hellen Keller had so many accounts.
-
Iran was playing by Western rules, drop rockets on areas not likely to have casualties or be strategic. It's supposed to be a de-escalation. They didn't account for Israel clearly wanting to escalate this war into another regional conflict of them against the entire middle east.

Iran is correct.
Israel is destabilizing the region further with this shit.
We hear about Israel’s right to protect itself so often we almost forget that everyone has it.
Everyone, except Palestine and Lebanon
Can we just let the leaders duke it out? 1 on 1 knife fights. Leave the people out of this shit
If only.
Eye for an eye for an eye for an eye for an eye...
Except for the last guy who will still have one eye. How's the blind guy gonna take the eye of the guy with one eye left? All that guy had to do is run away and hide behind a bush. Gandhi was wrong.
The great war is coming!
The war to end all wars!
I don’t think Iran had to attack Israel in first place. Hezbollah sought this when they started attacking Israel after Oct 7th.
Ignoring all the assassinations and strikes by Israel, including the unprovoked bombing of the Iranian embassy in Damascus?
Iran is supporting it's allies like the West does
On the surface - perhaps. But Iran's regime has to keep its image of power for its domestic peace. Israel's gov knows this and they do steps they know would elicit response from Iran in the hopes Iran would actually hit hard and the US would be dragged in official capacity. That would be dramatically destabilizing for the region. I reckon the US threatened Israel with real steps in order to get them to not hit targets that would have led to such escalation.
you straight up have not been paying any attention
