Well, countries have the right to defend themselves, as Israel likes to repeat often. Even Iran.
Well if Iran retaliates tomorrow let us remember that history starts on April 13th and as always israel definitely didn't do anything to provoke it.
Likud has caused this, Isreal. I hope this doesn't materialize but you need to change fucking course.
Are they just trying to get into as many wars/conflicts as possible to stay in power?
Probably just pushing the envelope at this point since no major Western powers have done much to stop them regarding Gaza.
Don't forget Netanyahu is in the middle of a corruption trial right now. Guaranteed that has something to do with him stalling a cease fire.
Well, well, well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions.
The wording is something else.
Ensuring they can defend themselves... against another state defending itself from them?
Whatever. It's a mess that's gonna get worse and worse.

It’d be terrible if they targeted hospitals and kids wouldn’t it.
Escalation seems unlikely. I'm not sure that there would really be anyone having Iran's back in this.
Honestly, at this point, if I was around, I wouldn’t do shit.
Make them look like they were crying wolf, we can bring back 2003.
So just to be clear...
Fundamentalist government sends financial aid to fundamentalist government's militia, fundamentalist militia attacks fundamentalist government's civilians, fundamentalist government's military invades and attacks fundamentalist government's civilians, so fundamentalist government sends financial, intelligence, and lethal aid to fundamentalist government's militia and gives access to fundamentalist government's compounds for their leaders, so fundamentalist government attacks fundamentalist government's compounds and therefore fundamentalist government says they're going to attack the fundamentalist government.

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. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating 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 10/19
-
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.
