  • There are theories online that say it was a symbolic attack and that they even warned Iran where and when they would strike.

    First some technical stuff and facts:
    There is much doubt even bunker busters would do significant dammage to Iranian facilities.
    At an estimated 90 -120 meters depth they are well below the range of their capabilities (60 meters).
    And they are heavily protected by various layers and nobody knows where they are exactly.
    Only the entrance and building on the surface is visible.
    The US have only used them once against Yemen and claim they could go deeper by doing double taps.
    This has obviously never been tested.

    Now some speculation:
    The Americans knew they only had a small chance of success (despite the reported mission success propaganda) and 100% certainty of committing an act of war.
    Then why would they do it?
    Fact is the genocide state is getting hit harder and harder, as Iran announced they would.
    There is huge devastation and the situation is untenable.
    They realise they have bitten off more than they can chew and already showed signs of weakness.

    The US ‘taking out’ the imaginary threat and casus belli would solve that problem and give the genociders a way out of the war without losing face.
    As the Iranians said they would stop attacking if they did.

    For Trump it would OC be a huge media victory showing how powerful they are and how they saved the poor genociders.

    Too soon to tell what is true for now.
    We’ll have to see what the actual dammage is, if Iran strikes back and if the war ends.

    You are the one from the coward country invariably bombing weddings from far away.
    Can’t explain anything to someone who’s american dumb and had crappy propagandised education and news on his banana republic.
    Waste of time, like explaining quantum theorie to a dog.
    Enjoy yor shithole, now fuck off

    The US and Israel have a partnership.
    While the zionist representation is very visible in US politics and creates the belief that they contol it it is not so.
    Can you honestly believe that if you objectively compare the two?
    A tiny country with a small population and a small army (despite again being disproportionally and relatively big) vs a huge country with the largest military in the world that was already a world power before the other even existed.

    " doing whatever is good for Israel and is inevitably bad for the US"
    Can you give an example?

    If you’re thinking now that the bad thing is israel may drag the US into war with Iran you’re mistaken.
    That may happen but it’s bcs it is the US intention to have war on Iran.
    They have provoked them many times all on their own without using the israel proxy.
    Hijacking ships, small attacks and unilaterally breaking the nuclear deal, etc. to increase tension.

    Anyway here’s a good article I recently read.
    Whatever is happening now has long been predicted.

    “Did you just …downvote and run away from the question? It was an honest question.”

    I sometimes sleep, and never run away from a discussion if it’s civil or useful.
    Which is rare here since .world is infested with reactionary clowns throwing insults and platitutes when they lose an argument.

    Let me know what you think.





  • I don’t see many ethnic Egyptians in places of power that can influence policy or get laws voted concerning their country.
    Egypt hasn’t always been loyal, certainly not the population.
    They overthrew the previous puppet despite US efforts to keep him in place.
    When they saw it was hopeless they threw him under the bus and ‘supported’ the arab spring movement.
    In reality they hijacked the revolution and simply put another puppet in place.
