And we’re talking about the most rag-tag of rag-tag “armies”, in fact I can’t even call Hamas an army given all they’ve got are Kalashnikovs and homemade firecrackers! :lol:


This thread is about what's going on re - Israel/Iran. No?

It's another question you can't answer.

So Hamas has survived for decades whereas Iran only lasted a week!

Go figure... :)


Pay attention. This thread isn't about Hamas. Iran hasn't "Only lasted a week". Athough, it's air defence system certainly didn't. Which must be sounding alarm bells in Moscow. Don't you think? :wink:

Iran won’t halt strikes until after Israel pays reparations — National Security Council

TEHRAN, June 19. /TASS/. Iran won’t stop strikes until after Israel is punished and pays reparations, Iran's Supreme National Security Council said in a statement.

"Retaliation will continue until the enemy is punished and reparations are paid," the statement said, the IRNA news agency reported.

The council warned that Iran will retaliate immediately to any country that will step in the conflict on the side of Israel.

Continuing partially with the UN thing.

In the past couple of weeks the UN body tasked with monitoring Iran's compliance re nuclear material matters has both reported that the nation has not complied with their inspection criteria and that they believe Iran has amassed sufficient plutonium of pure enough strength to produce a minimum of 10 nuclear warheads.

Coupled with:

"Iran's new president created a sense of outrage in the west yesterday by describing Israel as a "disgraceful blot" that should be "wiped off the face of the earth"

"The commander of Iran's Revolutionary Guards said Monday that destroying arch-rival Israel has become an "achievable goal" thanks to his country's technological advances."

"Israel is a “cancerous tumor” and is the biggest problem facing the Muslim world, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei said"

Not forgetting Iran's decades long support of terrorist organisations dedicated to the destruction of Israel.

Imagine yourself as the head of a physically small nation of 10 million, 7 million Jewish, watching these lunatics defy all attempts to prevent their developing a nuclear capability. What would you do?

I'm sure GR, the thought of millions of Israelis dying in a nuclear holocaust really gets your juices flowing - because you're a psychopath and it's part of your Christian "ethics" - also, it's much more efficient than gassing them of course - but surprisingly most human beings feel differently.

Really? Doesn't the Iranian regime have enough problems at the moment? Without the involvement of other countries with massive military capabilities.

Don't you think it has the faint odour of wishful thinking/BS about it? :wink:

I don’t agree with any of the above (UN post) Londoner but I can’t be bothered going over each point you made to counter it… I much rather go do some research.

No offense intended whatsoever.

I’m gonna go check if tonight’s barrage has commenced! :lol:

The “barrage” and your associated and inevitable vids/pics won’t matter. The Iranian nutcase Ayatollah regime is fucked.

What comes next is the important question.

Fear not, like busses I’m sure there’ll be another anti-West cause along for you to get stuck into soon. :wink:

“US Transfers THAAD and Arrow-3 Anti-Missiles to Israel”

I must say, Israel is a massive drain on the US economy and its getting worse with Israel’s worsening blood thirst!

Everything (military) Israel has they get free of charge… they’ve got the US working day and night for them like slaves!

What a horrible predicament for the US… and what a dark and sinister entity this Israel is!

Netanyahu has started a war that Israel can never win and he has passed the war on to Trump!

What a wonderful ally!

Wait and see when they take one of the aircraft carriers out. The Yanks will be bricking it.

Iran’s missile strike devastation leaves Israelis regretful for attacking…

Israel's National Security Minister (Itamar Ben-Gvir) blames Mossad Chief (David Barnea) for escalating conflict with Iran amid the destruction caused by Iranian missile strikes.

The incident took place in the ashes of one of the destroyed buildings in the city center.

Ben-Gvir lashed out at Barnea with sharp accusations. “Why did you provoke Iran?!” the minister shouted, pointing to the intelligence community’s failure to anticipate the scale of the Iranian response.

In response, Barnea, remaining calm, admitted: “I didn’t know Iran had such missile capabilities.”

Having lived and worked in Iran for over four years, I think it true to say that if you had my knowledge of the people, the terrain and the remoteness of 99%+ of that land mass you would realize that the IDF can cover only a fraction of that area. Whereas Iran can cover virtually the whole of Israel with a relatively small air force.

But their missile technology seems pretty good!

A comment: Instead of spouting opinion try going back to the 1950's and the democratic time of Mossadeqh! It was the USA and UK that destroyed that democracy and put the Shah in power and all because Mossadeqh nationalised the oil/gas industry. The Shah killed thousands of his own people by machine gunning Muslim's leaving the Mosque after Friday prayers and it was that which saw the Shah dethroned! Then came the US revenge backed Iran/Iraq War! I have listened to many stories of both the Shah's reign and the war that followed by those who were there at the time and had the scars to prove it

As a people I found them highly intelligent, very polite and very friendly ....... and Teheran is (was) a beautiful and safe city. Stop believing all you read in the Guardian. :roll:

By the way Iran did not attack that hospital they attacked the military compound a few metres away ...... the hospital suffered only blast damage......... it's the Zionists that deliberately bomb hospitals and other civilian targets because, as everyone knows all those doctors, nurses and patients are actually HAMAS in disguise! :roll:
