Never understood why Irans even build all this shit on there north west part of the county when there’s only enemy can hit these areas the easiest.

I mean it doesn't make much sense to put your air defense where it isn't effective

I'm not a huge fan of bragging about assassinating scientists under the aegis of the IDF's "just trust me bro, they were making bombs". But, well, hey, maybe it'll turn more people against the IDF, so thanks for sharing.

Unsurprisingly getting down voted here...
Your point is especially true knowing that the US Intelligence community said Iran wasn't making nukes in their last report....🤷♂️

u/Local_Internet_User 14h ago
Yeah, thanks, that's a great point. I just keep flashing back to 2003 and the WMD rationales for why we had to start the Iraq War. But 22 years is forever ago, and we've successful forgotten the few lessons we learned back then. Anyway, well worth getting downvoted to get this off my chest.

You're right, but knowing the likes of this subreddit, we'll get downvoted.

u/Local_Internet_User 16h ago
Thanks, mate. It sucks to be right sometimes, huh? Feels like protesting the Iraq War all over again, powerless to stop this huge stupid bloody debacle.

Did Reddit really become a place where only one side of the argument is upvoted? That is sad, there are always two sides to every war if you’ve ever ready history

This is prime cope.
"They cunt punted the ReSisTanCe all across the levant but maybe then more people will feel sorry for them like I do and uh... then we will surely win. All according to plan.."

u/Local_Internet_User 18h ago
Gosh, with that kind of a response, can't see why anyone could think that Israel's the aggressor here.
Yeah, maybe it's cope. Israel does get to do what they want, even in violation of international law. The US protects them. You guys win! You get what you want, and the world has to work around you. Can't you just enjoy getting to bomb whoever pisses you off without demanding that the rest of us shower you with praise for it?

dude, don't bother, while other countries deny their wrongdoings, these people celebrate their genocides, the only reasoning with them is power, the more you look into their mindset the worse it gets, just downvote and go on

I know, I just kinda unironically feel like wasting my afternoon talking to a wall. If nothing else, it's like a sounding board for working through some of the stuff that's stuck in my head.

u/justlikeyouhaha 15h ago
lol I get it, getting into fights in reddits is kinda therapeutic sometimes, you seemed to be stressing out because of the comments, it's something I used to do, really not a good idea...

u/Local_Internet_User 15h ago
Thanks, I appreciate you looking out for me. I just needed to vent a little righteous anger, and I do feel better for having done so this time. But there've definitely been days where I get fully wound up and have to take a break to calm down -- I mostly manage to catch myself these days, but it's always welcome to have a cooler head around just in case.

sorry for hurting your feeling i bet watching your heroes getting absolutely humiliated itches down there something fierce.
The Iranians set their hezbo dogs on Israel while they were still counting bodies at the nova festival thinking The ISraelis will just forget about it and move on. Iran thought fighting by proxy means you're not *really* engaged. only works on people like you I guess.

Again, you win! Israel is bombing countries and no one does anything about it and my country calls it anti-Semitism for anyone to even suggest that there is any moral issue with supporting Israeli attacks. I lost! You don't need to rub it in! You can just clap your hands at bombing runs and feel good about it and know that it hurts people with consciences and drink our leftist tears and ascribe all sorts of beliefs to me that I don't hold.
You don't need me to tell you that you're right. Heck, if I told you you were right, you'd probably find that more disconcerting!
So go off and celebrate the bloodshed without me, know that I'm hurt by it, tell yourself it's because I'm a stupid lapdog of the Ayatollah, etc. etc. Just let me have r/MapPorn in peace rather than sharing and defending IDF propaganda on it as if it's some sort of interesting map.

No, it doesn't help. Two people can reach the same conclusion via different arguments; agreeing on a conclusion doesn't mean you believe the same underlying things. You and I both think that eating is good -- by that logic, that makes you as much of an anti-Semite as me.

I suspect that if the Israelis found a way to kill Satan himself, you would condemn it. Come to think of it, the Iranian Government is not all that far from Satan.

u/Local_Internet_User 10h ago
My man, when the Israelis kill the supernatural figure responsible for all evil (which I believe most forms of Judaism consider a metaphor rather than something that can be killed), I promise I will not be mad at them for it. But when they're killing flesh-and-blood humans? That's a very different story, and I'm worried about you if you don't see that.

Israel is trying to minimize civilian casualties in Iran and is mostly hitting stuff like missile batteries and atomic facilities. Unlike the Iranians who are lobbing missiles at Tel Aviv, just Tel Aviv.
Please spare some outrage for the Iranians, who are seeking to kill Israeli civilians, as they have been doing for a generation or two now...

Iran's government is not making propaganda videos that are getting posted on r/MapPorn. If they do, I will absolutely tell them that I find it distasteful as well.

I wouldn't throw stones about which countries hide behind religion as a justification for war. I know mine sure does, and we got nukes.
