I mean yea, launching a bunch of missiles that you know will never land isnt that bad.

you do realize that it is literally first time that so many ballistic missiles are shot together and nobody even knew till today if it's possible in general to defend against such attack ?

What do you think Iran shouldve done?

Stop supporting terrorist.

I dont see what that does to quell the domestic calls for a response to the embassy attack. Of course I want Iran to stop the bullshit, but the realty is that they couldnt let this attack go unless they wanted massive unrest. So the question remains, how should Iran respond to the embassy attack? To me this seems like just about that absolute minimum they couldve done.

there was no embassy attack. there was building next to consulate.

with regards to "domestic calls", you should go and read some data on support levels of iranian government, etc.

I’m curious if you think this is bad, what do you think of the number of missiles that are sent to and hit targets in Gaza?

To my eyes, compared to what Israel is actively doing against Palestinians, this really doesn’t seem that bad. In fact I would even go so far as to say it is expected. Countries engaging in genocide rarely do so in peace.

israel doesn't use ballistic missiles in gaza. you also need to look at how many rockets hamas and hezballah shoot at israel. the only reason that there is not more damage and dead it's because israel is vested in protected it's citizens.

What does that matter in the context of how bad things are. What matters are the types of targets and the yields of the explosives

this is what decolonization looks like, sweetie

i see dozens of accounts constantly posting political, anti israeli content, anti semitic content for months and engaging in same type of discussions. somehow it ok but posting pro israeli content always gets downvoted and accounts banned.

it's not new. i observed it through the years. and it's not only for political topics, but also for anything that doesn't correspond to "majority opinion"

at this point of time this website is worst than reddit and twitter, where plurality of opinions is tolerated.

please permaban my account.
