I think a lot Iranians here are Persian and don't like the Iranian government.

At this point, there should be a Brutus in the Netanyahu cabinet and someone should just take him out.

Pretty sure Israels bombed most of them to death, during the last negotiations Hamas said they think only 30ish are still alive

Markets seem pretty unaffected as of this morning - other than the usual daily selloff. Sounds like we should stop letting a bunch of savages in the desert dictate the direction our economy.

Ok yeah, I don't understand why Netanyahu insisted on sending a direct attack into Iran. Would Israel really move to take him out of power? I imagine most of their country doesn't want to start WW3...? hopefully?

I feel like this is a pretty gross way to talk about any person in 2024. There are real, normal people who have been dragged into this conflict on both sides of the fence and to reduce them to that kind of description is a bad look. Let's not get caught up in trying to emulate the lowest quartile of Trump's voter base.

After Israel and its international partners shot down all of Iran's slow moving drones, Iran has pretty much came out to announce that they will not send any further attacks to Israel as long as Israel doesn't strike Iran again. The press has widely reported that US was persuading / pressuring Israel to not retailiate and take the successful defending effort as a win since Israel didn't suffer any damage from the attack at all.

But yesterday night (our time), US has confirmed that an Israel missle struck Iran. So now the ball is in Iran's court again -- are they gonna eat their words and not retailiate? or are they gonna send another wave of attack to Israel somehow? The former seems very unlikely to me.

So effectively, that fxxking no good Netanyahu could have avoided opening a 2nd front in addition to their Gaza military operations had he taken the US' advice, and held off from attacking. But of course, he just can't help from backing down from a fight.

Personally, I don't see how sending that missle to attack Iran would bring more benefits to Israel than to hold off and just let the Israel-Iran front cool off. Opening up an additional warfront is almost never a good thing to do, but that's exactly what Netanyahu has chosen.

You're right, no one group should be reduced to being called Savages.

However, every decision maker invovled here since Oct 7 and before have been absolute idiots and are acting like CHILDREN. They need a fucking time out.
