You guys remember when you woke up and our biggest problem was Disney disappointing people with its Star Wars trilogy?
Kinda miss those times now.
I remember the time before everyone and their mother lived chronically online and were constantly bombarded with (fake) news. Terrible stuff - wars, famine, whatnot - has always happened, now we just know about it instantly.
The Last Jedi and and Rise of Skywalker came out during Trump's first term, UK had triggered article 50, natural disasters, North Korea was ramping up nuclear testing, a new age of fake news was taking shape, trade war, rise of Hindu nationalism... you know what you're right, I do miss those times compared to now... But you know maybe this is the second act when things are most dire before... Well depends on the story arc 😅
All those morons who voted for trump hope you enjoy being even more broke for the next decade and your sons going to war to die so rich cunts can get richer
When people point out the west is far from being the "good guys" shit like this is what they have in mind. USA and Europe supported israel and armed it to teeth making possible for the fascist israel government to conduct such attacks. If you don't accept that our governments are as much rigged and evil as russia or china these useless war will never cease.
Why would you think people in the west would be upset about this?
If anything, the west has armed the shit out of Israel so they can do exactly this. Iran is a major Russian ally/puppet and an Islamic theocracy having nukes would be a very bad thing indeed. That's not to say Israel hasn't lied about why they've done this, because the footage of burning buildings in the middle of cities speak for themselves. They don't look like no "nuclear research facilities" I've ever seen, so we're clearly back to just bombing entire buildings to kill one person (if they were even there).
Iran knew full well what the response would be when they armed Hamas for the October attacks. It would mean Gaza being wiped off the map. Sure, those attacks hurt Israel, but they hurt Palestinians a whole lot more. Iran was just hoping that the resulting genocide stopped the west funding them.
If people in the west want this to stop (and lets be honest, any voting choices are pointless because all our major parties support war in the middle east), then we need to stop using oil and gas, so this whole area can go back to being a chunk of irrelevant desert so that all major players can take their fucking fingers out of it.
Welp, we had a good run. See ya in the trenches. Or whatever.
I don't know what trench I'll end up in if I get drafted. Greenland? Canada? Panama? Iran?
Iran has the right to defend itself.

The exact copy paste comment is weird
yeah. It was when genocide apologists were saying it about netanyahu's genocidal apartheid regime, too. So get used to it.

The Zionist regime will kill us all
No worries, only isolated or poorer countries get attacked. They won’t attack countries they sign deals with, and countries that can actually respond
As shitty as this is, I think Iran is a paper tiger. Israel has been beating the shit out of them for years now. I don’t think they’re going to be able to successfully counterattack in any meaningful way.
