Nothing more will happen

Israel bombs Iran's assets in Syria
Iran retaliates in a theatrical manner without real harm

That's their game

Some things as so predictable:


This scumbag neocon never met a war he did not like.

This filthy man says "Iran has demonstrated it is not restrained."

Well, was Israel restrained when it attacked the Iranian embassy in Syria? Violating Syrian sovereignty and attacking Iranian soil? Was Israel restrained when it started slaughtering thousands of innocent civilians?

The answer is no, so that means Iran has a right to defend itself from Israeli aggression.

It does not matter. Israel is almost certain to get what it wanted, American soldiers in the Middle East. Biden has already promised a response. If America ends up in a shooting war with Iran, it will be disaster for everybody. Israel is like the nerdy kid in high school who can do anything they want because they have the biggest bully in the school as their best friend.

I would expect Israel to do something. Perhaps flatten that drone factory. Also to the other poster who has praised Iran for their restraint....
I don't think the purposeful massacre of over 1000 civilians is practicing restraint. Hiding behind a proxy makes Iran only slightly less responsible. Also, Iran is well aware that if it starts an actual conflict it will surely loose, so that certainly plays into their response calculus.
Edit: Just watched Bolton's response. Yeah that guy doesn't seem to get that this was Iran essentially punting.

If there are "100's" of drones, I'm a little confused as to why Iraq didn't just start shooting them down, with US help, for violating its airspace.
The United States destroyed Iraq in 2003.
The remaining portions split between ISIS and Iranian proxy.
For all intents and purposes, Iraq IS Iran. When it matters.

Example, today... reportedly Iranian cruise missiles were fired from Iraq.
The two nations are extremely close thanks to our removal of Saddam.

Remember that Israel instigated this
Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria started "this". Israel did a decapitation strike where they were meeting with their Iranian military commanders.
Iran escalated by continuing to cross the Middle East to strike Israel. Again and again. First by proxy, and now directly.
Your beloved Iran needs to be wiped off the face of the earth.

Good. Some responsible thinking at least from Biden. The repugs want all out war. They want to out-Israel Israel.

Biden told Netanyahu US will not participate in offensive operations against Iran, US official says​


Hope Bidens stance does not change.

Probably done. Israeli capacity to attack Iran without US assistance is limited. Friendly Arab nations also helped shoot down drones reportedly so unlikely Israel wishes to antagonize them. Accepting this as the price for smoking that consulate is reasonable.

Of course when you follow the Israeli narrative (like when you broke the news here about the 40 beheaded babies), everything starts from the other side. Go back to your Faux News, Daily Mail, NY Post and IDF sources.

I think that everyone should be happy, Iran showed that they attacked Israel, it looks like the attack didn't really do any significant harm (which, if I had to guess, was their intension). Israel showed that their defense systems work well, and that they have a strong coalition that will come to their aid when they need help defensively. Hopefully this event is over.

For anyone interested in an old take of mine on the same situation, certainty on the Palestinian-Israeli situation vs certainty of US policy in the past in Iraq it's like déjà vu:

Iran, you just need to jump in and be Evil.

What possible good will this achieve?


I hope they blow your only oil port into nothingness, and destroy your shipping docks on the Caspian sea.

View attachment 96917

matter can be deemed concluded...
are they deliberately trying to be delusional?

please lets just hope this is it. Definitely dont want to get dragged into a war that Israel would have started. I think the disgust for Israel in this country is only starting.
sadly, this round was clearly started with the all out butchering of a large number of Israeli citizens.

Or, the world is going to see it that way. I know, others might see it otherwise, argue other wise, but that slaughter is what kicked off this round of violence. A lot of arrows did point back to Iran.

They have F35s. Limited is not the word I would use. Israel also has air to air refueling. Israel has the military capability.


The question is do they have the diplomatic capability ( international, international trade, international defense, partners ) and political capability ( internal, economic interests, current government is extremely unpopular* ).

( although, it is interesting they hate him for the judiciary, selfishness, and incompetence rather then his policies towards Palestine )

With less than 40 jets and some of those down for maintenance at any given time yeah their strike capacity is real but is indeed limited. The number of sorties they could manage in a day isn't gong to be a ton. Iraq could also close its airspace during a major conflict.

And what possible good did Israel achieve by blowing up Iran's Embassy, which actually killed people? I'm not a fan of Iran, but this take is irresponsible. Israel is in a posture to drag the US into a regional war with Iran. If Israel attacks Iran directly, what do you think happens next? And I'm hearing some of our elected leaders waving pom poms in support. Have we all lost our collective minds?

The US and other Western allies have been irresponsible in their support of Israel. Israel should have been pushed a long time ago into a 2 state solution and also into shutting down their settlement expansions. Young Adults in the US may soon be fighting and dying for what? To perpetuate an immoral stance by a country that treats some people as 2nd class citizens, if even that, led by a man who is trying to stay out of jail.
