They aren’t cheap, just racist. The State Department is paying to charter flights out of Israel for US citizens.

They pulled that Labour candidate from Clacton after he started closing the gap against Nigel Farage.

Sorry for the double comment, but you should take a screenshot instead of linking to the post. Google increases a page’s ranking in its algorithm the more it’s linked to by other sites.

Absolutely, I’m just wondering who it was.

Has anyone claimed responsibility? I’m assuming Iraqi Resistance?

I searched “10/7 Hannibal directive” and that didn’t even make the first page.

I hope you and your family stay safe.

I’m not asking Iran to do anything. I stated what is increasingly fact: Iran has not deterred Israel or convinced the West that it needs to bring Israel to heel to avoid a further escalation in this regional war, and further, that its reluctance to engage in any sort of retaliation has only emboldened Israel and the West. And that means they either need to show they are willing to escalate/retaliate, and do so not on the West’s terms like they did the last time, or capitulate. My criticism hasn’t even been pointed at Hezbollah or Hamas or the Houthis, just Iran.

And, ironically, what I am asking Iran to do, which is nothing, is also what you are currently doing: nothing. You get to sit safe doing the same thing everyone here except for few are doing. And that makes it all the more curious as to why, when I state the simple fact that Iran’s current path is not working as they intend, you think I am talking personally to you? You aren’t there. Who is “we”? You are just as much of a coward as everyone else, and you aren’t going to go be a foreign legion in Lebanon or Gaza more than almost anyone else here. And in your anger and shame and guilt, you run around this mega acting like an asshole, and then get even angrier when the people to whom you are increasingly unjustly an asshole to give it back to you. Do you think you are the only person here who knows anyone in West Asia that is affected by this war? You think you are the only True Resistance poster on here, so that might be the case. And just like you are too much of a coward to go put your life on the line in Lebanon or Palestine, you were too much of a coward to respond to LargePenis in the same way you responded to me, even though we both said functionally the same thing. Because you don’t have much to actually say other than to lash out in your guilt and shame and anger, and calling him a cracker wouldn’t really work, would it?

10, we are already in one and have been for months.

to break what’s left of that old man’s mind and heart.

There’s a handful of people who are actually dooming about how the death of Nasrallah means the end of the Resistance, which is obviously not correct and based on a poor understanding of how groups like Hezbollah are structured, and then there is a larger group of people who are basically reacting not only to those people, but to anyone saying anything remotely critical of the Resistance, or certain factions within it, as being “doomers”. It’s been frustrating to see this community increasingly abandon any sort of critical analysis of what is and is not working for the Resistance and turn into a leftist version of The Watchtower over the past couple of weeks.

For sure, I’m not shit talking drones at all. I think the introduction of drones into warfare is going to go down along the same lines as the introduction of machine guns in WW1.

Ask a Zionist how they feel about the intergenerational trauma of black Americans and whether they deserve reparations, and you will quickly find out how cynically they use the idea of intergenerational trauma.

There’s a lot of “non-boom” type stuff you can do/potentially do with aerial drones, like surveillance/scouting, line of site communications, mesh networking, targeting, propaganda/psychological operations, logistics/delivery. I just assumed we were talking about “boom” type stuff.

It achieved nothing besides that.

Well I’m glad we are on the same page that Iran’s actions have largely been meaningless propaganda moves that have failed to establish any sort of deterrence.

Every Iranian is locked in with the IRI and knows exactly where their government is at?

Oh sorry, I guess it’s just you that is locked in with Iran. You are the one true Resistance poster here on hexbear and the only one with inside knowledge of what the Ayatollah thinks and what should happen next. My apologies.

Stupid doesn’t have a border, nationality, or religion.

Clearly not, given your “expert posting” on a seemingly every country in the Resistance.

Do you know what a regional actually is?

Do you know what a regional war is? I guess a situation where Israel, with the explicit backing of NATO and implicit backing of the Arab comprador states, is attacking Palestine and Lebanon, where a joint force of Israel, the US, and Kurdish and Sunni terror groups backed by the GCC/Jordan/Turkey/NATO are waging war against the Syrian government, where the UAE, KSA, and NATO are attacking the Houthis, where the NATO/Israel backed Azeris are ethnically cleansing and looking to sever Iran’s only land route to Russia, I guess is not a “regional war” because what, its not in the Regional War area of Europe. This must just be a sparkling geographic conflict?

Fuck you, stop dictating what western Asians need to do for our own liberation.

A regional war would be everyone bombing everyone, THAT would have casualties in the fucking millions. Fucking excuse Iran for not wanting a million dead Iranians in addition to millions dead in the aforementioned countries.

No one “dictated” shit to you. I told you what are the options appear to be at this point. If you don’t want people to die, and you don’t want Iran to respond or escalate, then surrender. Disarm Hamas, disarm Hezbollah, disarm the Houthis, recognize Israel, and capitulate. That will save all the millions of lives.

I have fucking family across Western Asia

Oh, I know, you have been going around for weeks now shit-talking anyone who makes even the most anodyne criticism of how Iran has acted. You are the only true Resistance poster, after all.

Dropping grenades into a trench is basically the poor man’s artillery strike. Or the 21st century of it, depending on how you want to look at it.

You can do a “kamikaze” attack with a drone, as well.

What do you think Iraq and Yemen are doing?

What Iran is not.

Moody’s dropped Israel to Baa1, the top third of the lowest tranche of investment grade debt. There are three more downgrades to junk grade debt, and even then that is going to likely take at least another year because there will be a lot of political pressure on Moody’s to not downgrade Israel to junk status, despite arguably already belonging there.

Do you know how stupid that would be? That would only serve to isolate Iran further. They would have more enemies in the end and nothing to show for it.

Furthermore more isolate them from who? Who in your mind is currently sitting on the fence with Iran or is friendly with them that would change their minds if Iran killed an Israeli politician/diplomat/scientist in the UAE or Morocco?

You’re the user that yelled at an actual Iranian user here that he didn’t understand Iran when he criticized the Iranian government, right? Just want to make sure we are all on the same page about who the armchair experts are in this community.

So Iran reacts “appropriately” and now there are air strikes in Iran.

Of course. That’s what happened last time, right? Iran launched all those missiles, rockets, and drones, and the Israel started its bombing campaign on Iran?

Who exactly is the doomer here? It certainly sounds like it’s you who is advocating for the Resistance to sit around just take everything on the chin.

Iran is already in a regional war. Israel is currently attacking or has attacked Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, and Iran. It’s arming the Azerbaijani military that seeks to cut off their only land route to Russia and Europe. Israel currently thinks it can do whatever it wants and Iran will sit there and take it. NATO has shown it’s not even going to mildly punish Israel, and there will be no shift in that policy from either Harris or Trump. China refuses to engage, and Russia can’t do much right now even if it wanted to. The comprador Arab states are going to sit around and let the Israelis take out their most feared regional boogeyman while saying just enough to avoid a coup. Netanyahu’s approval rating in Israel is as high it has ever been. The choices now are capitulation or showing the West that the Resistance is willing to escalate and not only pay a greater price, but inflict a greater one upon their enemies than they thought they would have to pay. There will be no movement to change course among NATO nations until their citizens begin to feel the pain and their politicians worry about the political cost. The Arab states will not act until their kings worry more about their own heads than Iran. There is only one way to bring that reality to fruition, and it not by sitting on your hands. That also doesn’t mean launching an amphibious invasion of the GCC nations or firing everything Iran have at Israel, either. But it does mean engaging in things such as limited strikes on economic/infrastructure targets or assassinations in where places Israelis and other westerners think they are safe, the latter of which is a perfectly proportional and limited response to the assassination of Haniyeh.

The best time to strike the oil rigs was a couple weeks ago to make a fucking point and drive up gas prices. The next best time in a now in the month before the election. Biden is going to try and dump then entire strategic reserve in response and likely order some sort of ban or restrictions on oil and gas exports in response in an attempt to control prices before the election.

They still need to look at striking Israeli economic assets that Israel requires to keep its economy running/are used as debt collateral, and start exploring assassinations in third party countries.
