What's going on in the Middle East?

[Dizzy28]

Yemen has also launched some drones northward.

Iran is only attacking in retaliation for the Israeli strike and not to defend Palestine which if they had done could have saved some of the 30000 innocent lives lost. If they inflict casualties upon Israel it's about time and rightly deserved. If Israel does the same to them they deserve that for not lifting a finger to help Palestine. Either way I hope it takes the heat off raffa and eases the settler attacks in the West Bank

[Dizzy28]

The regime has issued a statement

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

Airspace around the region has been locked down

I saw yesterday that Kalain Hosein received a death threat at his home address all for the crime of posting about being excited for a new Starbucks branch.

The "from the river to the sea" crowd once again showing here and globally they are the most unhinged and violent of supporters. Could very well have been a usual poster in here cuz there are quite a few on the cusp Hamas loonies on the board.

All it takes is one flag for allyuh to lose allyuh mind so?

I have an Israeli star of David flag. Thinking of planting it directly opposite of the mosque.

Unity and brotherhood, right?

I see Inshan post a vid of our Hindu brothers and sisters showing solidarity with Palestine by planting a bunch of Palestinian flags outside the Carlsen Feild temple, what do make of that? Will you be willing to plant a star of David flag there as well? Unity and brotherhood, right?

Is this true???

I have not been there in 6 months and I do alot of social with them and had agreed to help fund their divali and Christmas programs.

If this is true, I am heading there in the morning and will see. I will pull my funding as I believe to support this will be supporting murder and rape.

That's not to even talk about the Muslim hate of hindus. Why are you supporting a group that actively hates you? That's like a synagogue putting up a nazi flag. Actually it's exactly the same.

Controlled de-escalation by Iran to save public face in a dictatorship, just like the last announced "retaliation" on the USA bases. It's like when North Korea fires off those rockets in the Sea of Japan and then controls the internal news to its population. Everyone knows USA and Israel had very capable defense machinery to easily allay some low yield drones flying for 2 hours from Iran.

The politics game is afoot, however~ nobody can truly predict how a genocide madman will react.

[Dizzy28]

The motorbike drones were never meant to be serious. Lots of other better hardware used by the regime today.

The day fusion can be harnessed as a power source, is the day the middle east becomes irrelevant

[Dohplaydat]

Iran will like to enact evens stevens now

[shake d livin wake d dead]

As soon as Eid done.....play time

[matr1x]

They cry about sanctions and everything, but hsve plenty money to buy drones and rockets.


World War 3 is coming soon to a cellphone near you...

Ww3 doesn't start with Iran, they can't wage a full scale war if the US supports Israel.

Ww3 only starts if Russia attacks NATO or China invanses Taiwan. And both ain't happening this year, though 2025 is a possibility as Russia might have a pretty decent army and territory gained.

[Dizzy28]

The bigger picture from last night would be the Saudis and Jordanians were actively involved in shooting down Iranian drones. On top of the Jordanian airspace access to the IAF this shows that key Arabs are still open to being partners to the Jews.
With last week's announcement that the world's largest Muslim country, Indonesia wants to normalise ties with Israel for reciprocity for their bid to join the OECD the Israeli foreign relations appears to be a bit healthier now.

Us and UK need to caution Isreal from escalating....

[maj. tom]

UNITED NATIONS, April 13 (Xinhua) -- Iran's mission to the United Nations said Saturday that the attack on Israel "can be deemed concluded."

"Conducted on the strength of Article 51 of the UN Charter pertaining to legitimate defense, Iran's military action was in response to the Zionist regime's aggression against our diplomatic premises in Damascus. The matter can be deemed concluded," the mission said on social media X.

"However, should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran's response will be considerably more severe. It is a conflict between Iran and the rogue Israeli regime, from which the U.S. MUST STAY AWAY!" the mission added. ■

[sMASH]

I believe, (I didn't hear) that Isreal wants to act harder in gaza especially raffa, so ramping up regional to distract away from their atrocities. They pulled out their troops and passed laws to ban media, so they coudl reduce troop Loss and fly outside of media coverage.




The problem is, last night was not a show of FORCE so much as just a demsotrstion of reach and coverage. It wasnt meant to do damage.

The iron dome can be overwhelmed and then they have little protection.

Recent Israeli Threats Follows Verbatim of a 2009 Brookings Institution paper titled "Which Path to Persia?"

Israel bombed the Iranian embassy on April 1, killing 16 people. This was a violation of international law and a declaration of war. The US has asked China and other countries, including Turkey and Saudi Arabia, to urge Tehran not to launch a retaliatory attack on Israel. After numerous assassinations and bombing by Israel, no one condemned Israel for their aggressive behaviour. Iran retaliated with a direct attack on Israel. This attack marked the first time Iran has launched a direct military assault on Israel. In fact, Iran demonstrated that it is capable to confront Israel despite of the support of the UK and the US of A.

Israel allies including the US, UK, Germany, and other Western nations, were quick to condemn the strikes.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has condemned the Iranian attack as a “serious escalation".
Biden the liar ( I saw decapitated Children) condemns Iran and vows G7 response, and ‘ironclad US support for Israel".
France saying Iran is" risking a potential military escalation".
Britain "calling the attack reckless." Rishi Sunak called for "calm heads to prevail".
Germany saying Iran "must stop immediately".
Canada's Justin Trudeau "unequivocally condemns" Iran's attacks on Israel.

Iran has every right to defend itself.

[Dizzy28]

For the ppl that think attacking an embassy is an act of war

[matr1x]

Iran needs to calm down

[sMASH]

How it looking, Iran and hesbolah will take on USAI, and Yemen will take on the et alia part of the g7.

And Russia will handle any submarine activity discretely.

Odessa and Taiwan will be free to annex

I remember being banned last year. And now my predictions have come to pass.


Iran trying to flex and play that they run things in the Middle East. Time for US to drop some nukes and put them in their place.

I like how you mention dropping nukes so casually, as if is just a normal thing.

Nukes have only ever been dropped twice in all of history, and doing so would kill tens to hundreds of thousands of people instantly as well as immediate international condemnation.
Not even to mention the potential of a global nuclear war that kills millions.

You not serious.

[sMASH]

America had to abandon Afghanistan to supply Ukraine, then abandon Ukraine to prepare for Taiwan.
And had to put that on hold to supply Israel.

Prosperity guardian didn't go so well, unless they wanted to look incompetent.
Yemen controlling the seas from Somalia to the Indian ocean.

Nobody wants to start the nuke game... That's a different power dynamic.

Isreal sends one fighter to Syria, destroys the Iranian consulate annex building killing 16 people, including a senior Quds Force commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi, and seven other IRGC officers, along with two civilians.

Saturday’s retaliatory attack from Iran includes 185 drones, 36 cruise missiles and 110 surface-to-surface missiles. Of all of those munitions used in the attack, only three missiles actually made it into Israeli airspace. There is only one casualty: a critically injured, seven year old Israeli Muslim girl .

That is all the proof that you need that Hezbollah and Hamas have been trained by the IRGC.

And while waiting for the imminent Iranian airstrike, IDF actions in Gaza resulted in another 43 Palestinian deaths.
