LOL, ignoring the fact that there are sanctions on Iran, and restrictions on many of its groups, the false equivalency is truly incredible. Iran are bad guys. Everyone knows it, which is why there are things like sanctions and travel restrictions. Nobody is excusing their breaking of international law except themselves and their proxies. Nobody is ignoring the evils of Iran’s regime m we’re not discussing them because nobody is defending them. If someone was, they’d get a heap of pushback.
The USA and Israel claim to be good guys. And have plenty here defending them. So, of course when that happens others will point out they’re breaking the law and doing bad things. I’m not really sure how what the USA has been doing in the Caribbean shouldn’t be considered terrorist acts and theft.
So on that basis since Australia’s indigenous peoples were just there, but not sovereign nations or anything, it was fine to steal their land. Nice.
Well duh. The question is peace on what terms and whose rights are trampled under it. Putin wants peace too; it’s just his preferred peace includes the USSR being reinstated.
I actually think there is a decently sized US voting block that moves with the economy. And I think they voted against inflation under Biden and will vote against Trump unless the economy improves significantly.
Is it really a conspiracy? Israel has a history of false flag attacks in the past. Even if you accept that israel stuffed up by allowing Hamas to breach their border in multiple places, the attack lasted for many hours before Israel regained control of the situation.
Because it was Sabbath and a Jewish holiday.
The only soldiers on base were the ones unlucky enough to not be released for the holiday.
This information is all readily available.
Before spreading silly conspiracy theories on a footy forum that no serious person would believe, do a bare minimum of research.
This was a royal ■■■■ up that demands an enquiry that Netanyahu is trying to avoid because he will most likely have to take responsibility.
Do you think I would post without doing reams of research. Anyway, the more you post about the unlucky group of circumstances that occurred on that day makes me wonder more! Maybe you cna answer this question. Why is Israel leading this war on Iran now? After all Iran has acted the same for over 40 years?
Because they are about to bury their nuclear development deep underground where it will not be possible to attack.
They are also building more and more sophisticated ballistic missiles and reaching a critical mass that are able to penetrate the air defence systems.
So they are reaching a point where they not only have the desire to seriously harm Israel, and even threaten its very existence, they will soon enough have the capability.
The attacks from their proxies were also becoming more sophisticated, accurate and deadly and would soon make life in Israel near on unbearable.
For about a year or more much of the north of Israel was evacuated and basically ghost towns.
As were the Gaza envelope towns.
This situation is the direct result of Iran.
This situation is unconscionable. You may or may not believe in Israel’s right to exist (I don’t know), but as someone who lives here, the Islamic Republic has to go. And now.
Additionally, Netanyahu has been talking about Iran his entire political career, but no US Presdent has been willing to take the necessary action until now.
The US is saying since the start of the war on Saturday Iran’s ability to launch missions has been significantly degraded to the point that the number of missiles being fired have dropped by 86%. Attack drones down 73%. Iran’s airforce is destroyed and navy too - according to the US.
US sub sinks an Iranian frigate that had been in exercises with India, killing ~100. Sri Lanka respond to a distress call to rescue survivors and retrieve bodies.
It’s hard to get confirmed information but looking at the available data it appears about 220 passengers onboard the Emirates flights which can hold around 500 passengers.
Etihad have an Abu Dhabi to SYD flight scheduled this afternoon if all goes well. I’m doubtful this one goes ahead
and funny how trump has pretty much taken control of Venezuela’s oil reserves right at rte time he is attacking Iran and disrupting the entire middle east . boy that’s a pretty wild coincidence .
