Israel just bombed the hell out of Iran

Cooler heads are needed to prevail.

Unfortunately there isn't any

Moonglow is a cool head. At least he thinks he is.

Dear Mr Salt ,
We ( me and my fellow cognoscenti ) have bought up the many remaining WW2 Martello Towers and have them manned with machine guns 24x7 .
They have not yet worked out where the Friendly Fire is coming from .
Naturally we use rubber bullets , just to tell them to stop being so naughty .
But we paint the bullets with Israel flag colours -- tedious job but we are a brave group .

BTW our best shop in my international resort home-- for fruit and vegetables--- is run by exceedingly charming Iranese business people .
So , Up Yours , Mr Salt .

Weasel words from a weasel administration.

Israel had told the US on Thursday it would be retaliating against Iran in the coming days, a senior US official said.​

​

"We didn't endorse the response," the official said.​

Israel has carried out a strike inside Iran, according to a US official. Follow for live updates.

The Scranton Screwball was notified about the attack before it happened. I'm surprised he didn't warn Iran.

An Israeli missile strike targeted a site in Iran early Friday morning, two Israeli defense officials confirmed.

A US official also confirmed the attack, stating "We were not surprised, while also saying Israel informed the US in advance of the strike.Israel strikes Iran, defense officials confirm

We also took part in Israel's retaliatory attack last night, flying tankers to refuel Israeli jets. We might have had fighters in the air too, knocking down drones. But don't quote me on that, I haven't checked that yet.

Israel needed to send a message they have concluded. They also must avoid a full blown war with Iran, it does not help them as they are dealing with Hamas. This is not going to make U.S officials happy but I suppose Israel has to operate as they believe they must , it appears "limited" in scope. I will search various media but this may mean "no intended casualties but we wlll damage some of your military infrastructure". Or perhaps they hit a terrorists safe house, I will try and glean information through European media. Prayers for the IDF

Iran has been threatening Israel with total destruction since the shah left in the 70s. It is long overdue for Iran to shut its pie hole. Israel has bigger balls than the US did in 1979. If the US had done what Israel is doing, we wouldn't have the trouble in the middle east that we have today.

Israel provided Iran with weapons and intelligence during the 8 year Iran-Iraq war .

What trouble is the US having in the Middle East?

Or if we were still doing what Orange Man already fucking did.

But of course, the Leftists in their perpetual quest for EQUITY AND INCLUSION had to strike "WORLD PEACE" off their collectivist dockets....

We'd all be better off if we'd kept the nuclear agreement with Iran.

I'm pretty sure Iran got the message.

CNN just reported, citing a regional intelligence source, that the early assessment is that #Iran will not be retaliating for #Israel's strike tonight.

Retard.

Do you really think I give a flying fuck? It's worth a few extra dollars if people feel the full brunt of what they voted for. Call it "tough love."

Or would you rather have another four years of Biden?

 

[jackflash]

Now is the time for statesmen, not clowns. Far too many clowns involved

I've been pushing for quality ambassadorship for quite some time, but unfortunately the powers that be appear to be getting restless, hungry for some action.

So Israel can strike an Iranian consulate then play the victim when they get hit back and now we see this.

Israel says it’s retaliation and dumb Americans say GO ISRAEL. They don’t know or care that Israel started it, with the killing of several Iranian senior military officers.

The hypocrisy of this kind of thinking is these very same dumb Americans like to justify Israel’s genocide in Gaza because Hamas started it.

They must avoid a full blown war by starting a war. Lol. Do you even read your posts?

Israel started this. Just like you think Hamas started it and that justifies Israel’s genocide of Gazan children.

Do better!

“Prays for the IDF.” WTF!

Starting a war would require waves of attacks and/or an invasion. Iran has been nefariously funding proxies for years. Israel has borne the brunt of hundreds, perhaps thousands of rockets into their territory. Hamas spent billions on underground military infrastructure and missiles, funded primarily by Iran. The reason they get away with this is that their big brother is China and to a lesser extent Russia. We need American leadership on the world stage.

No. What Israel did in cold blooded killing Iranians in their consulate, was an act of war. Iran has never done anything like that.

You dupes of the state have claimed for decades that Iran is behind every terrorist group in the world (funny thing…they had nothing to do with 9/11, that was Saudis Arabia our wonderful ally), but always without evidence like good CIA toadies.

You want American leadership…LMFAO. You apparently haven’t paid attention these past 2-3 decades. Have you not seen the results in Libya, Syria, Yemen, Iraq, and Ukraine?

If you thought Cockney was hard to understand, UCB is barely intelligible sometimes.

From what I can gather the very limited strikes were more of a "we can do a lot worse to you if we want to" type of thing.

They can eat their oil. We weren't even importing any oil from Iran until that cocksucker Joe Biden got in office.

Exactly. Iran has billions and billions of dollars thanks to Biden. Trump kept Iran broke.

There was a cease-fire in place on October 7th, when the HAMAS savages violated it to rampage Israel and hunt down, torture, and murder every single Jewish man, woman, teen, child, toddler, and infant they could find.

The HAMAS subhumans you work for started this, you antisemite.
