> And at the double standards applied to Russians and Israelis in their wars of aggression.
I would argue that funding Axis of Resistance from Hezbollah to Houthis is aggression too. Let’s not pretend that IR minded their own business, and suddenly was under attack.
- jraby3 7mo agoNot to mention all the numerous threats to wipe Israel off the map by Iran, Hez etc. Let's not pretend Iran is innocent please. Or Hamas either.
- FireBeyond 7mo agoMeanwhile "from the river to the sea" was actual Likud's election slogan before Hamas co-opted it. There are absolutely elements in Israel - and to be clear, in its government, with the ability to and motivation to make it happen, not just extremists posting on their forums - what are quite happy with the idea of razing both Gaza and the West Bank to the ground for settling. And their idea of what to do with the people displaced by this ranges from collateral damage to a shrug of the shoulders and making them someone else's problem.
- hearsathought 7mo ago> Not to mention all the numerous threats to wipe Israel off the map by Iran, Hez etc. That's a well debunked lie told by zionists for decades. Nobody cares anymore. Besides it's "israel" wiping palestine off the map. > Let's not pretend Iran is innocent please. Or Hamas either. Far more innocent than israel.

The clock was programmed to count down from 8,411 days, corresponding to a 2015 statement by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who predicted that "Israel won't exist in 25 years". He claimed in his statement that there will be nothing left of the Jewish state by 2040. The statement was made in the aftermath of a September 2015 nuclear deal that had a timeline of 25 years to complete. He predicted that it would not take that long for Israel to cease existing. Protesters annually chant "Death to Israel". The installation was part of a much broader demonstration involving over a million participants, where anti-Israel slogans and imagery were prominently featured.

How can you debunk something that the officials of Islamic Republic, Hezbollah, and various Palestinian fractions were saying out in the open for years? Ddi you just make it disappear?

- epolanski 7mo agoThere was literally a puppet regime in the 70s backed and promoted by the US. And since then Iran has always been in US and Israeli crossfire. You also need to try to understand their point of view. There's no doubt Iran has promoted armed resistance and terrorism, don't get me wrong, but ask yourself how much of this is about their own safety and defence. It's not 0%, far from it.
- reliabilityguy 7mo ago> There was literally a puppet regime in the 70s backed and promoted by the US. Yes. But do not think that the current regime in Iran is the one that overthrew the Shah. The current regime is the one that butchered and jailed the people who overthrew the Shah. It is of a less known fact, but it is the case. > You also need to try to understand their point of view. Sure. Every (even irrational) player has a point of view. Moreover, we can even try and understand it. However, it does not mean that we should not act.
