Good for them. Defending their country from an unprovoked invasion. The hypocrisy of the west is astounding. I hope this is creates a breach between US / Israe

Good for them. Defending their country from an unprovoked invasion. The hypocrisy of the west is astounding. I hope this is creates a breach between US / Israel relationships. Israel has become pure evil.

Israel always was, at least for the last 2 decades. We all (including me) were just too blind and stupid to see through it. If you want to form an opinion around Israel, I would've suggested, in better times, visiting the Red Crescent center in Doha accommodating and treating Gazan women and children.

  Lots of people did see it, but politicians were way too tied up with Israel to allow even the slightest criticism. I hope that's finally going to change now, because Israel really needs to be reined in. (Iran too, the US too, and Russia too.)

  Yes, and Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, I know. Shalom.

    Did the Biden administration cook up an assassination attempt to provide Trump a pretext for invading Iran? Maybe, but Iran has a track record of provocations like that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1983_Beirut_barracks_bombings https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1983_Beirut_barracks_bombings Iraq had no similar track record of attacking the U.S.

        Nationalizing infrastructure that had been built by and at the expense of foreign countries was pretty provocative too.

How is it at all hypocritical for the west to want to stop a regime of terrorists like the one in Iran? > Israel has become pure evil. Israel didn't murder over 30,000 of their own citizens in 2 days by firing automatic weapons into crowds of protesters, that was the Islamic regime in Iran. When it comes to western values in the middle east Israel is very obviously doing better that any other country in the region, despite Israels issues.

  While Israel is not a regime of terrorists ? They are starving out children for christ's sake. Are these the western values you're talking about ? Or, okay, I understand. They are expanding and occupying the colony of Israel, that is quite a western value indeed, I'll give you that.

Do you share the view of the Islamic Regime in Iran that Israel should not exist?

      > Israel has facilitated sufficient aid into Gaza to prevent starvation. Should I believe the UN, or some random zionist online ? > Do you share the view of the Islamic Regime in Iran that Israel should not exist? I certainly believe they are the source of aggression, violence, pain and misery in the region. They are constantly invading and occupying the homeland of other people, as they are doing RIGHT NOW in lebanon and constantly in palestine. I also believe that what is written in a two thousand year old religious book does NOT give anybody any valid claim to land, and that israel at this point is a planted western colony in a place where people have been living for thousands of years. Do you believe that israel has a holy mandate to be there and carry its actions ?
