He dead Live updates: Iran's president and foreign minister killed in helicopter crash and some Iranians are celebrating Why President Raisi's death has sparked off fireworks, celebrations in Iran
Chop Those pics make the pic I saw of Iranian women celebrating his death all the more meaningful. I hope the new dude doesn't retaliate against them. I will try to find that pic again
Just seeing the pictures makes me sick. There's times when you think the human rights violations are so bad the US just needs to go in and wipe out the fascists.
Similar feelings ricochet through my head. But.........................putting our Soldiers and Marines on the ground in Iran to fight Iran in a ground war does not seem like a good idea at all. Maybe arm the rebellion in Iran.
If only we had a well-armed, highly competent, ally in that part of the World to do some dirty work for us...
How about we don't get involved in any more killing. Iran though a bad place for me to live is relatively stable and would cost many many many lives and dollars to fight successfully against. Fighting them would hurt everyday, normal Americans like everyone on this website.
I hope these brave women are safe but the odds are not good. Iranian women celebrate President Ebrahim Raisi's death by dancing, toasting
Whether the actual account is 10k or 35k, that's still much too high for my liking. Israel has the capability of precision strikes against Hamas. What they are doing, instead, is quite reckless and shows blatant disregard for civilian life. One could chalk it up to 60-70 years of distrust of their Palestinian neighbors. And this is coming from someone who has the utmost support for Israel and it's right to remain a sovereign country and home of the Jewish people.
Interesting details about target selection and confirmation. https://mises.org/mises-wire/what-israel-doing-gaza-choice
Oh man. I didn't know that. I guess all Palestinians have no right to keep their own lives and property now. If only I knew some of the history.
More seriously. The Palestinians made the wrong decisions back when they had more of the population and thought that they could control 100% of the land. They were promised that during WW1 and considered the new proposals betrayals. That doesn't mean they made wise decisions along the way. But it does explain their thinking. They sure didn't trust England at that point. Bare in mind that there were already Jewish people living in the land prior to that of which they had no problem. It was the Eastern European Communist Jews that they opposed.
Sure but the Eastern European Jews were in Judea before the Palestinians. Maybe if the Jews didn’t leave they would not have to beg to return.
And with the British Empire the heirs to Rome at the time, it was justified that they tried to right past wrongs.
