Agree. The older population has seen this before and deposed the US puppet, and the younger ones have learned about it their entire lives AND saw Saddam get blasted by his own puppet masters. There is no appetite the military or civilian populations for regime change, and the attacks were brazen in their lack of logic. I think any assassinations will harden resolve rather than weaken it.

Israeli media reporting what everyone knew. Unclear what this means about morale of the media class there.

Should be noted that the US confirmed this position less than 3 months ago

I also think Israel getting hit harder than it has in decades may make them think twice about doing the exact same playbook we've seen before.

Whose the second guy? Trustworthy?

Biden moment

They might be headed to Finland for NATO exercises or are repositioning but the timing is definitely weird

Whenever I see Donald Glover I wistfully remember him dropping This is America, refusing to elaborate on its meaning, and endorsing Andrew Yang lmao

Had no idea. Edited

They've been the most likely entity to use them since their founding, threatening even the US to use them in the 70s unless Nixon gave them funding. This only slightly increases that chance which is still unfortunately too high

From ME Observer: Israel announces failure of assassination operation against al-Ghamari, Chief of Staff of Ansar Allah. It's clear that the goal was to divert attention from the Haifa strike as it happened - by pure coincidence - at the exact same time.

Edit: sorry for the double post

That's where Israel's gas fields/refineries are afaik. Tit for tat

Follow up: "Channel 14 correspondent reports that the target of the attack in Yemen moments ago was Mohammed Al-Omari, Chief of Staff of the Houthis, and the results of the attack are being examined."

edit: was apparently a failure and diversion fromthe intensity of the Haifa strike

From AJ: No damage at Fordow nuclear site, says UN watchdog

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) says there is no damage at Fordow, one of Iran’s main uranium enrichment facilities, despite reports of Israeli attacks.

“Based on info available to the IAEA, no damage seen at site of Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant nor at Khondab heavy water reactor under construction. No further damage at Natanz since yesterday,” IAEA chief Rafael Grossi said in a statement.

But only 2 injuries and 2 casualties!

Won't someone think of Ukraine at a time like this

ICBS

I doubt they do this mostly because it's probably stupid, but I want them to conduct a nuclear test tonight

Amid long, uncomfortable pauses, Joe Biden struggled to recall when his son died, when he left office as vice president, what year Donald Trump was elected or why he had classified documents he shouldn't have had, according to audio Axios obtained of his October 2023 interviews with special counsel Robert Hur.

YouTube link (tough to listen to tbh)

The Houthis appear to have struck Israel's Ben Gurion airport with a missile.

The missile launched from Yemen by the Houthi armed group has struck about 550 metres (1,804ft) from the main control tower of Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion International Airport and about 650 metres (2,132ft) from the nearest aircraft parking area, according to Al Jazeera’s fact-checking unit, Sanad.
