The Latest | Israel vows to defend itself if Iran responds to attack on its consulate

I must be missing something here. "We will defend ourselves violently if you respond violently to our violence."
Not exactly a peacemaker statement.

 

Agreed, they should be nicer to Biden Backed Nuclear Regime Iran. I agree they should have worded that differently. I sure as hell would if an American President wanted to see my country burn so he could get more Michigan votes

 

Israel doing their best to cause Iran to attack them. Netanyahu knows that the Gaza issue is coming to an unwanted end meaning that his trial will restart but a new war with Iran will postpone this trial once again. He also knows that the US will protect Israel no matter what he does.

 

Iran pays for missiles that rain down on Israel day after day. The missiles are launched indiscriminately. They could hit military bases, but there are equal chances that they could hit apartment buildings, private homes, hospitals, anything.

The Iranians are PO’d because Israel bombed an Iranian consulate and killed a top Iranian military commander who might well have had something to do with Iranian missile program. If you sponsor terrorism, you can expect to pay for it.

 

Actually one of those commanders was part of the team working on a peace agreement between Israel and Hamas

 

Why would Iran respond except to admit that they were the behind the initial attack against Israel to begin with. Why wouldn't Israel be within its right to self protection at that point?

And why wouldn't you attack Iran for invoking the aggression in the first place?

 

Peace through steel raining down on Israel?

 

Link? Now Iran is for Mideast peace? Right.

Now I suppose they are if they can save their Hamas terrorist clients so they can attack again sometime in the future.

 

The only reason why the Iranian missiles don’t kill more people is because of the “iron dome” which intercepts the attack before it can land.

 

When does the US start holding China accountable for their support for Iran? Given what we're seeing from both the Houti's and the Hamas use of the Iranian weapons supported/supplied by China, why does Joe Biden continue to allow China to experiment in the real world with their weapons?

 

So Israel should declare the opposite and promise to do nothing if Iran decides to attack them?

I don’t think some of you really think things through…

 

I'm sure this is another DNC backed dog and pony show to frighten their reactionary base and all the other fear conditioned Americans created over the last fifty years..

Buy stock in fallout shelters, I hear they're coming back bigger and better..

NOW WITH BIO LOCK DOWN TOO!

 

A: Iranian missiles launched indiscriminately? Daily? Try never. Threats sure but actually bombing? Are you sure you're not confusing Russia using Iranian missiles in Ukraine?
B: An Embassy is a target? Since when? Ask Mexico their opinion of that.Ask the entire world that.
I would agree with Netanyahu avoiding his own trial long before anything else presented here.

 

Your not surprised I hope? We are at point that American don't even realize when they're being manipulated..

 

And from your neck of the woods!

Words of wisdom from the most repressive and dangerous country on the planet

 

Nice propaganda post! It might work with low information voters, but it will not work here. We are taking about missiles from Lebanon.

At any rate, you should be against ALL missiles launched by Iran proxy groups against Israel. If not, then we know whose side you support.

 

Well, Iran attacking Israel isn't either.

a time for war and a time for peace.​

The trick is knowing what time it is.

If the Muslims were smart they would leave Israel in peace. Israel is no bad arse but they take no crap off bad arses.

 

Gee, it's almost like Islamists attack Embassy's with some regularity. I don't think I saw Iran overrunning the US Embassy and taking a bunch of Americans hostage, ending Carter's presidency and bringing Ronald Reagan to power.

'A U.S. official with knowledge of the matter said Thursday that American intelligence reports indicate an Iranian retaliatory strike within days, “possibly on Israeli soil” as opposed to Israeli interests elsewhere.'

Ayatollah Khamenei is said to be “concerned a direct attack could backfire with the projectiles being intercepted and Israel responding with a massive retaliation on Iran’s strategic infrastructure.”

Yup. That's 'a legitimate concern all right.'

I very much believe Israel would blow Iran's military back to the dark ages if Iran was dumb enough to attack Israel.

 

I saw some news today that the USA has warned Israel of an impending attack by Iran. So far nothing has happened, but it's going to be a tense time this weekend and into next week. The US warnings have so far been right-on in the most recent history. The USA even warned Iran of a pending attack, which was later discovered to be an ISIS attack. So, the world can join club USA and get warned about impending attacks, or fight against the USA and get swallowed up by oppressive and violent forces.

 

Just like when u stop paying the mob their protection money and your shop gets 'mysteriously' trashed.

 

Know what Zorro? If someone rapes a sweet little 6 years old girl I can't use that to justify myself doing so. It's called being civilized and law respecting not to perform evil because others have.

 

No, it isn't. In fact the statement is weird. Why do the violence in the first place??
