Some cool footage of the attack.
Looks like they couldn't intercept all of them.
Cool video thanks for linking it.
Looks like taxpayers are footing a nice bill again
I know not much about global politics. Could this be cheeky ww3? Or is this sort of thing pretty common?
What israel did, attacking the consulate of iran inside Síria is really really fucked up. Iran played it cool and did this attack today, wich you could consider a very light response because attacking an embassy is casus belli (reason for war). But the usa will turn this into ww3 sooner or later, theres no doubt about it
I support Iran’s defensive actions against Israeli aggression. I hope Iran chooses military and intelligence targets instead of civilian ones, in compliance with international law, despite Israel targeting primarily civilians in their war of conquest.
Well said. Lawful engagement is the only way if anyone is going to hold that kind of power. American hegemony has proven itself thoroughly hypocritical, time and time again. It’s attack dog in the middle east is holding the leash. Rule of law must reign - but never forget its our collective responsibility to write and uphold just laws for the collective.
Hopefully this retaliation will be enough to scare Israel straight. However, I am concerned that it will lead further escalation and greater US involvement…
They sent drones? From Iran?
Si. We’re about to see how the iron dome stands against it. Maybe Iran has figured out a way to bypass Israeli defences…
Probably not. It’s one of if not the most sophisticated air-defense on the planet. Without overwhelming it, attacks have little chance of any significant successes.
Just look at Ukraine, most attacks never reach their target and they are probably not equipped as well as Israel is (and also spread out much further). Even Russia’s “hypersonic” missiles are shot down by plain ol’ patriot systems on the regular.
So unless Iran pulls out some really fancy tricks, they will probably just hit low-value targets or maybe manage to overwhelm the defense in some limited areas (at the cost of a lot of drones). If this was to drag on however, it’ll start to hurt eventually…
USA should keep there feets and hands down on this one. This isn’t an affair that need their involvement.
There’s an argument that the Moscow wing of the Republican Party has emboldened countries like Iran due to its lack of support for Ukraine. Just because the US might not get involved, it doesn’t mean its adversaries will also sit this one out.
I think countries like Israel and the US enacting and enabling a genocide and constantly bombing countries in the middle east has “emboldened countries like Iran” (hmm, I wonder what you meant with that phrasing…). Israel just struck an Iranian embassy last week, and this is retaliation.
“There’s an argument” you have no idea what you’re talking about.
Way to completely miss my point.
