There is significant skepticism and frustration regarding the diplomatic talks surrounding the Israel-Iran conflict. Many commenters express anger towards perceived injustices, particularly double standards in nuclear policies between Iran and Israel, and a lack of accountability in international relations. While there is a desire for peace, there is also a strong defense of Iran's right to sovereignty and self-defense.

Only Israel and the US can preemptively bomb and/or invade and win the PR war about it.

War should be the two leaders dueling with a gun. Sacrifice yourself.

Hopefully this can end as fast as possible with as little death as can be managed.

So 2 got through out of how many launched? How many dead in Israel?

Hey, are those military facilities in densely populated civilian areas? It looks like those missiles are shooting up from the ground from in and around a city. Is Israel using civilians as human shields?

Bubbly-Money-7157

Iran has threatened israel with complete and total annihilation for decades now. All they were waiting for was the ability to create nuclear weapons. That is not propaganda or fake news. Its fact. Israel determined that iran was too close to achieving said goal. Its just as simple as that.

Enough-Silver-915

Let’s say there’s a timeline where Israel didn’t attack Iran. Iran would have nuclear weapons within a month or two. What do you think a nuclear armed Iran would do? Why don’t one of you Iran supporters play that out for me over the next five years or so?

Optimal_Weird1425

In the 70s, the idea of multiple valid perspectives in the culture (brings lots of progressive ideas, like hippy culture) brought enough resentment to cause a violent revolution, which oppresses women to this day (they dropped to the “Law and order” way of thinking). 

It’s confusing how progressives are choosing to side with Iran when it is so anti-progressive. Reminds me of Queers for Palestine.

Russia just lost its source of drones in the Ukraine war.

This is ridiculous. The planet is burning up and all these middle to late aged men can think about is more war.

Israel is not going to stop until it has defanged Iran.   And it shouldn’t.  It is not acceptable or safe for Iran to have nuclear capability.  And Iran has already tried to attack a US base in the region with drones, so they are trying to drag us in.  God help them if they drag us into this.  Between the US and Israel, we’ll send Iran back to the Stone Age.

It's crazy that the ones who suffer the most are the people who have absolutely nothing to do with it and nothing to gain.

Hey guys I was searching YouTube to find videos and I typed “Israel attacks…” and then sooooo many places came up. Which one is it today?

Thought Trump could prevent wars or end them in 24hrs.  If thos were under Biden they would scream weakness to allow this

Sorry I feel so out of the loop on this a quick break down or eli5 would be great. I thought Israel and Palestine were fighting ...or they were fighting Humas. Now why are they attacking/being attacked by Iran?

So it turns out bombing another country causes war

OpportunityCorrect33

and what is trump doing about this NOTHING AT ALL

Exotic-Control-8821

Bitter-Holiday1311

Yes there is. Gaza is the most densely populated area in the world . So the argument is that Israel is less densely populated than Gaza but that the Israeli government gave permits to civilians to build homes next to military installations so therefore the military is not using them as human shields…they are using themselves as human shields? That argument works much better for Gaza defenses though.  Where are Israel’s nukes, biological and chemical weapons stored?

There are two types of people -- people who support Palestine because they want to see people suffer and people who support Palestine because they don't want to see anyone suffer.

Only one of those would mock and jeer "Iran has the right to defend themselves!"

War is bad in any case but Israel how been going buck wild on Palestinians.

As if Iran will listen to the Israeli after their negotiations in Gaza🤣

Pretty sure at some point their leaders gonna throw nukes at each other....


I just feel sad for all the peaceful people and families on both sides : /

Choose from options: 

1. Let God sort it out. 

2. Let Allah sort it out. 

3. Let Elohim sort it out. 

4. Let YHWH sort it out.

Iran isn't innocent but the civilians dont deserve this. The world has gone mad

Imagine if when Russia attacked Ukraine they would run articles like:

Let us say Iran are sending over their stockpile of all their old missiles that have been sitting in storage for decades…. Just to see where Israel has their anti-missile devices. 
😦
In residential areas it would appear.

It may be an Israeli trap…. But we shall see where they go to next.

 **Iran’s Right to Defend Itself**

Of course Iran has the right to defend itself—just like any nation under decades of sanctions, assassinations, and threats of regime change. The West armed Saddam in the Iran-Iraq War (500,000 dead), Israel bombs Iranian scientists, and the U.S. steals Iran’s oil money—but *Iran* is the "aggressor"?

Funny how "self-defense" only counts when the West does it. Iran backs Palestine, Lebanon, and Yemen *after* years of U.S./Israeli occupations, sieges, and airstrikes. The world cries over "terrorism" but stays silent when Iran’s cities are attacked.

**TL;DR**: Don’t poke a bear for 75 years, then act shocked when it bites back.

Nah... israel needs gods punishment or whatever the chosen get spanked witj lol. They are the baddies.

Isreal is the root of all shit in the middle east. Why doing this shit — lies after lies to eradicate and wipe out cities….since 1922 can someone show one freakin time a war that’s not start first by isreal. Fuck that cancer!

Disastrous-Cow-6487

I hate that America is involved in this at all. Great Britain and France created this problem. They should be the ones funding Israel’s war.  America had nothing to do with this European creation.

Sivlenoraa

The only thing I’m thinking about right now for both sides. What about the innocent people and the kids, bro the fucking poor kids they don’t even know what the fuck is going on.

TrainingMurky9365

Old dumb "chistian" republicans starting another war with zero evidence of nukes AGAIN. I guess they learned nothing from Iraq...

DrunkOnCode

That's by design. After Oct 7th Israel will be engaging in continuous active defense rather than waiting for terrorists to attack it and only then respond. If there are clear signs of Iran attempting to rebuild its nuclear program Israel will do everything in its power to stop it even if its preemptive.

CreativeRealmsMC

Iran is utterly impotent, and now the world knows. 
They had their pants yanked down and their underwear yanked up in front of 8 billion people 

Much-Rutabaga-9984

It will take a year to rebuild the interceptor inventory. Trump has closed the nuclear portfolio on his side. 12,000 israelis were made homeless by Bibi''s 12 days of war, he might be taken to task soon over that. Gaza is unravelling. If Israel goes to war again soon... unpredictable things might happen.

The Iranians gain nothing by war, as before Bibi's war so it is so again, time is on Iran's side. They get stronger every day by just being. Soon they may start leaping ahead as they trade their tech for other tech.

Regionally this conflict may have awoken the arab masses again. My guess is the next conflict might be civil uprisings in arab states.

KappaBera

Well, sort of yes and sort of no. It would be really hard politically for Netanyahu and especially Trump to resume military actions. Funny thing but for all parts most impotent from really internal, not foreign.  Trump really walked very thin line internally on involvement in this conflict. He manage in and out just in time and I think "do not care if it would be a deal or not" is first of all managing expectations, he do not want to double down.

vovap_vovap

I would be surprised if this ceasefire lasts more than a month, although I fear it may go on for a while (kicking the can down the road) until some profound change takes place in Iran, since I don't see any Israeli prime minister at all allowing Iran to restore the nuclear program again.

Hispanoamericano2000

Following a 12-day conflict, the US and Iran are set to engage in talks amidst a fragile ceasefire, with skepticism about Iran's willingness to trust the US.
