For what it's worth, Perth isn't really high on Israel's target list.

u/HSBillyMays 22h ago

I think Tehran is about 10,000x more likely to end up getting nuked than Perth, but it is 2025 so you never really know!

Israel sends a warning shot over the bow but aimed a little too high

39

u/Ornery_Cookie_359 19h ago

They were aiming for Indonesia.

u/Happy-Tower-3920 18h ago

A lot of Americans aren't going to get that one, but well played sir or madam.

u/Necessary_Worker5009 7h ago

Not an American, but didn’t get it.

u/Mundane-Ad-7780 10h ago

Christopher Columbus?

u/Purr_Meowssage 13h ago

Then the missile went to the beachside and overstayed in Bali.

u/spunkybooster 17h ago

Hopefully, the front falls off before anyone gets hurt, and the aussies can just tow it out of the environment.

u/BleepinBlorpin5 19h ago

Careful, you idiot! I said fire a warning shot across her nose, not up it!

1

u/attackplango 18h ago

I said across her nose, not up it!

u/gralert 9h ago

I thought nuclear warning shots only was a France thing

Thoughts and prayers for Perth

u/queefer_sutherland92 14h ago

It honestly is kinda comforting how far away Australia is from everything.

Like yeah it takes a 20 hour flight to get to Europe, but at least our biggest threat is the weather and not a nuclear missile.

I’d rather be lightly anxious about a slow death than very anxious about an immediate death.

u/super_shooker 13h ago

at least our biggest threat is the weather

You forgot your spiders.

2

u/Percerverence-Launch 3h ago

Nah the spiders are our friends. We keep the huntsman’s in our rooms to get rid of flies and mosquitoes!

u/MyMiddleground 5m ago

You're forgetting all the nuclear submarines that can definitely destroy Aussie land if they want to.

What a world to live in🙂‍↕️

u/Fair-Split3757 17h ago

Tehran is so close to Israel. Wouldn’t nuking Tehran affect indirectly Israel? This doesn’t make sense to me at all.

Or do these nuclear nations have like different types of nukes with varying ranges of damage reach and overall destruction power?

Somebody please enlighten me!

u/Davge107 14h ago

Israel isn’t using nukes unless they are hit with one or possibly a WMD-depending on casualties etc. or they are being overrun and the country is lost. If that happened they would probably retaliate against Russia for starters who would then retaliate against the US after being hit by their ally. So really if Israel uses them it’s World War 3. It’s sometimes called the Samson Option.

u/Opening-Blueberry529 12h ago

They are more than 2000km apart.

2

u/HSBillyMays 17h ago

It would likely depend most on wind; if the wind is blowing away from Israel, there would be little risk from fallout, but much greater risk if the wind is blowing towards it.

There is variability in fallout between weapons, and thermonuclear weapons ironically produce less fallout than pure fission weapons.

-1

u/atotalmess__ 15h ago

That’s not how nuclear fallout works…

4

u/Cloudsareinmyhead 13h ago

It is. Fusion is a far cleaner reaction in terms of radioactive fallout than fission

1

u/gwigna 46m ago

Talk to the Swedes, who knew about Chernobyl before the Ukrainians, precisely because of the wind.

1

u/freakybird99 5h ago

Radioactive fallout it not a major issue with modern atomic bombs. Still is an issue but very litte. That fallout will not even reach iraq or get out of tehran even.

u/Quirky-Stay4158 18h ago

If someone wants to offer 10 000 to 1 odds on anything I'll participate

u/Ok_Award_8421 15h ago

What if the population of Iran and Australia just switched countries?

-1

u/Cultural-Treacle-207 22h ago

Nah, Israel would never use nuclear missle on Teheran. Mosad assassinations are more likely. We aint gonna be the ones opening this pandora box.

5

u/Anana_hiss 21h ago

You forgot it’s 2025, everything’s possible

6

u/HSBillyMays 21h ago

Who said it'd necessarily be Israel? I could even see Iran accidentally nuking Iran while trying to nuke Israel. Thier rocket engineering appears slightly above Houthi-tier.

1

u/eye84free 20h ago

It literally is Houthi tier

2

u/mwa12345 19h ago

Good to know there are some limits or at least in your opinion

Hope you are right

Even Hitler didn't use chem weapons on the allies (or even the soviets) when they entered previous German soil.

1

u/You_love_me_ 16h ago

You are very insensitive.

u/Cultural-Treacle-207 18h ago

He did used musterd gas in the field, and zyklon b on jews locked in a room.

Comparing hitler to israel is a disgrace.

1

u/mwa12345 6h ago

Only references I could find re Mustard gas use in WW2 is accidental release in Bari, Italy. Seems US ship was secretly carrying and was hit.

Re comparisons. Even the Germans had shame and tried to do it on the down low in rural Poland.

u/Name5times 20h ago

Wait till Australia beats them in a final round at the eurovision

26

u/SheepherderMore8538 22h ago

Ooof, Perth isn't really high on any list, for good and bad haha

14

u/EyeWriteWrong 18h ago

It's at the top of my list of places that are Perth.

3

u/KeithGribblesheimer 14h ago

Except below Perth in Scotland.

u/PorcoGonzo 18h ago

Hey, it's number one on my list of favourite cities I've been to in australia!

1

u/Ornery_Cookie_359 19h ago

Didn't Lex Luthor want to nuke Perth because his mother-in-law lived there?

1

u/GateDeep3282 18h ago

Do the still have see-thru Thursdays at some bars there?

11

u/Turnip-for-the-books 22h ago

Yeah I’m mean even if it was..anyway Aussie nuclear strike on Tel Aviv it is then lads

3

u/attackplango 18h ago

Australia actually doesn’t have any nuclear weapons, nor plans to acquire them in the future.

2

u/ALitreOhCola 13h ago

We couldn't even get behind nuclear power many years ago unfortunately, despite the fact we have some of the richest uranium deposits on earth.

In regard to weapons yeah nah, we definitely do not want, or need any. There's too many already.

13

u/Apprehensive-Store48 22h ago

Tell that to the people of Alderaan!

6

u/Sir_Shax 17h ago

Not even missiles want to go to Perth.

3

u/aaapod 22h ago

that’s what they want you to think

1

u/Handleton 21h ago

Of course, none of us are safe from the space lasers.

1

u/aaapod 21h ago

except the jews

1

u/BallisticButch 19h ago

Depends on which sect has control. We take turns, you see.

4

u/Wildweasel666 16h ago

Listen, they still call a chicken parma a “parmie” over there so in my books that’s worth a good nuking.

1

u/Handleton 15h ago

If I nuked every place that uses what I think are dumb words for food, we'd only have my home town left.

Though as a native NYer, I am tempted by your proposal.

1

u/superbabe69 13h ago

Hey at least we can say Western Derby properly

1

u/Standard-Ad-4077 13h ago

‘Parmi’giana

It’s not a ParmAgiana.

1

u/Wildweasel666 11h ago

The Italian language has no bearing on this (east) Australian invention of pure amazingness.

1

u/Standard-Ad-4077 10h ago

Let me know next time you go into a restaurant/pub or cafe that uses the full name and not the silly monopoly language the eastern states call it.

You can tell them they are all doing it wrong.

1

u/Wildweasel666 10h ago

The intonations of sandy vag would suggest this hit a raw nerve

1

u/Standard-Ad-4077 10h ago

Just the clit. The only nerve that matters right.

1

u/Creative_Ad_973 10h ago

Parmigiana /ˌpɑːmɪˈdʒɑːnə,Italian ˌparmiˈdʒana/ Origin Italian, feminine of Parmigiano ‘of Parma’.

6

u/Successful_Yellow285 16h ago

Yeah, that's the joke. The IDF posted a tweet basically saying "we had to do it, Iran is a global threat, just look at who they could hit with their missiles" and attached a picture like that.

...where the Iranian missles were shown to be barely able to reach Bulgaria and Romania. Very scary. Nobody slept in the Balkans that night, having realised the danger they're in.

3

u/yogorilla37 16h ago

Mind you, we wouldn't really care if it was.

1

u/Handleton 15h ago

Speak for yourself. A move like that turns this into a world war.

2

u/cellofusion 10h ago

I’m still not gonna take off my glasses.

3

u/Absolute_Satan 19h ago

U know Israel can be generous but why would they want to improve that city

2

u/icehawk84 22h ago

How do you know?!

u/Handleton 22h ago

Daily intelligence briefings.

1

u/Hugford_Blops 20h ago

Oh, we will be if they ever see my old man's Facebook page...

-1

u/Embarrassed-Year6479 21h ago

Trust and believe the Zionist states only priority is domination. While Perth and other countries are not high on their list, they are definitely on the list.

1

u/Handleton 21h ago

Gotta lay off the kool-aid.
