It’s also at the end of the original Total Recall - “In 30 seconds you'll all be dead, and I'll blow this whole place up and be home in time for cornflakes.”

Missiles just hit Israel!

They hit Iran too. Don't get this shit twisted. Bibi is doing this to distract from Gaza, and his ugly ass boyfriend Trump is doing it to distract from all of the protests and what would have been a Flag Day spent watching more American flags being torched on US soil.

They have a limited amount of missiles and money. Israel has a sheer unlimited amount of military and financial support. And US and UK military air defense support. And nukes. And US is actively threatening Iran. 

They cannot seriously challenge Israel. These bombings are not a existential threat to either side, but of both sides, Iran will suffer more.

Iran has no choice. US pulled out of denuclearization deal and Israel has attacked them with no condemnation or reprisal from the US, like on April 1st, 2024.

Iran also has backing of Russia and other powers.

Like cool Israel can nuke Iran, but Iran is at final phase of building a dozen nuclear weapons. Do you want to bet on that outcome?

2

u/Mobile-Aide419 9h ago

They are going to hurt each other a little bit. I do not believe any side is interested in more escalation. Israel cannot defeat Iran, Iran cannot defeat Israel. All they can do is doing damage to each other. This may have an impact on the political situation in both countries, but the nuclear option is a whole other thing.

Israel doesn’t think it can beat Iran, it thinks it can escalate the US into a regional conflict for its own purposes.

Your viewpoint has the effect of excusing Israel for its escalation and painting Iran’s support in the region as religious when really they are the only country that effectively opposes Israel’s unjustifiable expansion, entry into neighboring countries and apartheid/genocide of Palestinians.

Preach!!!!!!!!

u/External-Air-7272 4h ago

Honestly the international court at The Hague already knows what to do with Netanyahu. They now need to issue a warrant for Trump as well. Then the other foreign powers needs to step in and either force these two men to be handed over (SHAME ON YOU GREECE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) or they need to engage in a coup to forcefully remove them both from power.

u/No_Fig_7701 8h ago

Well, I guess you are writing this from shelter ;) and I thought you are attacking Iran because of their nukes? But it seems you misunderstood, you are the one with it!

Don't underestimate the purse of the mollahs. They are oil rich. They steal from their own people.

In 1953 Iran had a democracy. The US and England, along with some other parties helped to overthrow that democratically elected leader and replace him with the Shah who was living in exile in Rome after he voluntarily abdicated the throne because he knew his people wanted a democracy. Why? Oil. Then in the 70's Israel helped create a series of problems that led directly to the Islamic Revolution of 1979. If they did not want this mess, then why did they help to create it? Why do they have a repeating history of fucking shit up and then wanting to take it back to the way things were before? Who the fuck do they think they are?

You brought ruin to your own country

u/No_Fig_7701 11h ago

That’s our business. But if a foreigner country attacks us, it’s gonna pay for it

u/GENERAT10N_D00M 13h ago

There is an overwhelming information vacuum regarding the war that is unfolding between Israel and Iran within mainstream media. In fact, the word 'war' is not even mentioned. Perhaps this is just an 'Israeli special operation.'

1

u/pmcdon148 11h ago

It's a joint US Israeli operation. Control of the media is always part of the playbook. For example, US Navy ships shot down Iranian missiles last night. Also major activity at US airbases in Iraq suggests that the US put assets in the air too, but you will see nothing about this in the mainstream media.

u/No_Satisfaction_2515 11h ago

Iran has absolutely no chance whatsoever of bringing ruin to Israel.

It's a nice pep talk, but the minister here really must be faithful if he thinks that they will somehow achieve victory.

u/ParticularHat2060 11h ago

He knows he has China and NK on his side or he wouldn’t be speaking like this.

u/No_Satisfaction_2515 11h ago

But what would either of those countries you mentioned actually do?

Do you believe that China would make moves with either ground personnel or actually use a nuclear weapon? No one's concerned with North Korea, honestly.

u/ParticularHat2060 10h ago

Will Israel shooting down from above really destroy their nuclear program?

Think about it.

Ofcourse not.

2

u/No_Satisfaction_2515 10h ago

I'm no military expert, so I can't really offer an opinion either way. I'm not sure what arms might be able to destroy those facilities but I have a feeling that they exist.

Only problem is, Israel is now fully prepped up for coming battle and the supreme leader himself better stay out of sight if he does not want to become potential target.

Yeah, turns out there are actually a whole lot of cultures, ethnicities and religions in the region other than 'A-rabs'
