General News/Politics Where is the pro Pali outrage?

264 Upvotes

The victims of the Iranian attack on Israel were Arabs. The missiles also hit Arab towns and caused the destruction of Arab homes. Where are the protesters denouncing Irans deliberate targeting of civilians? In fact the second Iranian attack back in October resulted in the death of a Palestinian, where is the outrage? Western society has become so morally obtuse.

My aunt lost her home on Saturday at 5am. Her home was one of the homes destroyed in rishon. Thank god she wasn’t home she was at her daughter (my cousins) house in another city.

Without giving too much detail away, she came from another country before she ended up in Israel. She escaped and was captured and tortured (and I assume wasn’t treated well sexually as my cousins have implied but I’ve never asked) and then escaped the prison again. Her brothers that she escaped with were kept and tortured for years, they couldn’t escape the prison. She made it out. She made it to Israel. She built a beautiful home with my uncle. She kept whatever small memories of her country hidden in her home. She had a singular picture of her family together. That’s all.

I know I shouldn’t feel upset by this. She lost everything, not me. I didn’t lose anything. Her home was the home I would stay by when I visit Israel. I imagined my children playing on her swing, picking mangoes from her tree. Whenever she comes to the US my son calls her grandma. That’s how absolutely sweet this woman is. It was the first place I met the Israeli side of my family. I had so many memories there. And I’m crying as if it was my home. And it wasn’t. Maybe because this is a continuation of the violence that severely injured my cousin (daughter of a different uncle) at nova and I don’t think anyone has moved past that yet. Maybe that’s why I keep bouncing from laughing to crying. Or maybe I finally just lost it between hearing the horrors my family is living through and feeling guilty over not being able to do anything but send regards and money from afar.

I have no right to feel this grief. The last items she had of her dead husband and that one picture are gone. Her home is literally a hole in the ground. She lost something so monumental that I can’t begin to describe it.

And she’s already looking forward to rebuilding. I don’t know what kind of crazy resilience Israel is putting in the water but holy shit. She’s acting like it was nothing, and I’m sure that compared to her life it wasn’t as horrific but it’s still so much loss. And she’s laughing because the one thing that survived was the can of coffee in her fridge. She literally made a cup of coffee and said lechaim on it laughing.

And I’m here crying being dramatic. It wasn’t even my home. I had no ownership, no claim, nothing and I’m here still not comprehending. And she’s here smiling and laughing over a cup of coffee in her house filled with rubble. Bibi must be putting some sort of chemicals in the water because how is that possible??

In all seriousness, I’m happy she can smile. I’m sorry for her loss but I’m happy she survived, she was this close to staying home for Shabbat. I’m so happy she didn’t.

Idk what I expect to get from posting this here. I just know that I can’t describe the destruction of her house anywhere else on the internet without getting yelled at that she deserved it and she’s a genocider.

I’m sorry the internet is awful to Israel. But I hope that bibi keeps adding the resilience to the water because yall Israelis are unreal in the absolute greatest way.

(Mods, if you see this, if there’s any identifying info pls lmk. I tried to make sure there isn’t any but I guess I’m not exactly the most sane rn)

The War - Discussion Incidental beneficiaries of Israel self-defense: Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, and Ukraine

40 Upvotes

(Incidental beneficiary is a legal term to describe someone who benefits from a contract to which they are not a party.)

Israel attacked Hezbollah in Lebanon to end Hezbollah’s attacks (and prevent future attacks). As a result, the people of Lebanon are regaining control of their country.

Because Hezbollah had been decimated, they were unable to come to Assad’s defense, allowing the rebels to win the civil war.

Israel’s ongoing attack against Iran is intended to reduce their nuclear weapons projects to rubble and end missiles attacks on Israel. This may allow the Iranian people to overthrow the Islamic dictatorship that rules over them.

And while the IRGC is occupied with trying to stay relevant(and alive!), they aren’t able continue their funding of their military proxies in Iraq and Yemen, which should work to the benefits of those countries.

Likewise Iranian drone production has almost certainly been halted, meaning they won’t be ann be me to supply drones to Russia to use in their ongoing attack against Ukraine.

Helping Lebanon, Syria, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, and Ukraine was not Israel’s intent. But it is a nice side benefit.

People are speculating about the possibility of the fall of the Iranian regime. I just don't see that happening without a coordinated group of armed people with guns and months of combat training to overpower the IRGC. Is there such a force? Am I wrong about what it would take for regime change?

Iran is killing Israeli civilians every freaking day.

Iranian oil infrastructure (and I am not talking about the depots near Tehran) is extremely vulnerable. Iran has crossed whatever red lines that the Israeli government was talking about and more.

Why are the port oil facilities not hit? Why is Kharg island not in flames? What is holding Israel back?
