Iran launches dozens of drones toward Israel

Supporting either side in this idiotic war over religion is stupid. That said, I don't know what anyone expected Iran to do after Israel bombed their embassy.

Inb4 lemmy supports Iran

Lots of false equivalances related to this war but being against Israel bombing an embassy in another country is not the same as supporting Iran. You don't have to choose between Israel and Iran, you have to choose between Israel and international law / human rights.

Phrasing it as "if you don't support Israel then you support Iran (or Hamas, Hezbolla etc.)" is to disregard the importance of international law and the fact that it applies to everyone.

This is just more tankie bullshit. Russia and Iran have been getting buddy-buddy like crazy, especially right before the whole Hamas attack on Israel thing in fall last year. And of course, Iran feeds Hamas war materiel.

Russia is trying to make a war on multiple fronts to exhaust the US and make Biden unpopular while also running a campaign on social media to make Biden look bad and interfere with the 2024 election.

In other words, Russia REALLY wants Trump to win so they can end their expensive and punishing war in Ukraine and come out looking like they won something. Also, trump has made it clear that Israel would get free rein to "finish the problem."

Let me just say fuck anyone who targets civilians.

I guess this is the next chapter in the endless middle-east war. The British & French got exactly what they wanted when they drew up those borders. It’s truly tragic how many people are going to die in the next decade because of religious and nationalistic despots and their egos.

I support Iran’s defensive actions against Israeli aggression. I hope Iran chooses military and intelligence targets instead of civilian ones, in compliance with international law, despite Israel targeting primarily civilians in their war of conquest.

A more militarily active Iran is never a good thing.

The US House will vote on Israeli aid next week because of all this. Hopefully it'll include Ukrainian and humanitarian aid.

Big influx of Hasbara bots here today

I'm glad Biden's saber rattling, instead of attempting de-escalation when it was hand out on a silver platter was effective!

No one could have seen that coming though, obviously.
