Israel strikes Iran
(www.axios.com)
I will be draft dodging. I'm not going to fight in the next war on peace.
I'll be here at home. Fucking military wives.
Press x to doubt.
Shut up and raise my son bootlicker.
The bootlickers are staying home, too. The ones whose wives you are allegedly fucking are wearing the boots.
You assume just because they're lonely that they'll want your company.
Me right now:
I don't know what will happen but if the US had fullthroatedly supported this I think we might have locked in WW3 like fuckkk "dodged a bullet" is the wrong phrase, more like adjacent timeline vertigo?
edit can we get independent verification of this? As of yet I can't find any other news websites saying this.
edit 2 thank you for links!
Idk, the US full throated supporting Israel is fighting against the innate urge for trump to rat fuck any ally possible.....
Tbh it seems like a 50/50, based on the article the administration seems to be trying to distance themselves from the event. Pulling personnel out of Iraq and warning allies of the attack may be good news. Hopefully we may have just witnessed Bibi overstepping the line for the last time?
OTOH, TACO
Reputable German newspaper Die Zeit is also reporting this. Though it’s only a short temporary message.
Is this in whole or part because Iran was threatening to leak secrets? If in part, is that just the pretext to doing it, anyway? Are Bibi troubles at home secondary to "I just wanted to do this?”
I don't know, its just things keep happening that seem very scary, kind of rushed and strangely not synchronized with a wave of similar acts in a way I would expect from a coup in the US and Israel drawing the US into a regional war.
It seems like a hail mary, not a confident move by Netanyahu.
Yes please Israel, start some more wars, keep extending yourself, especially against better equipped adversaries
That’s why US troops were getting out of the way, makes sense now.
Americans, don't support this war, go out on the streets, rebel! Without you, Israel is nothing.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
