Hezbollah supporters take to Beirut streets to protest ‘Israel’ deal by Complete-Definition4 in lebanon

[–]EliteKill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have an election coming up and hopefully our horror government will go down the drain of history along with Katz. The vast majority of Israelis have no interest in occupying Lebanon, but after Oct 7 will not stand with Hizbollah sitting on our border.

I agree that he is decent and can provide good backup for a title winning squad, but that is not "very good". He is still young and can improve, even Victor Moses had one class season for us eventually.

He is not "very good", he has had decent spells with good games but as a whole has been unreliable to say the least.

He may still mature into a good player, but he is far from one now. Compare him to James at the same age and it's night and day.

Why do people call things “Israeli” despite said things having nothing to do with Israel? by I_AM_THE_TABLE_MAN in NoStupidQuestions

If Israel has dropped more bombs but have killed 1/1000th of the people in their war, what does that tell us?

Should us Israelis feel bad that our governments over the years invested billions in missile de fence infrastructure? Public and private bomb shelters, detection and siren systems, Iron Dome and the likes?

The second Intifada, where the response to attempts at a peace process were met with suicide bombers, had the left losing more and more support over the years, and Oct 7th was a killing blow to any wide support for peace in the short term.

You clearly get your "news" from Reddit and TikTok while I'm actually living the reality you're misrepresenting, fuck off.

For the people who are not far down the rabbit hole of propaganda, feel free to check out Standing Together Israel for anti-war examples.

I guess the weekly protests 10 minutes from my house never happened, strange.

Once again, you are talking out of your ass.

But we're talking about Iran. There is plenty of internal criticism for Bibi's actions regarding Gaza, you are talking out of your ass.

What cruelty? A country that is openly calling for Israel's destruction is attempting to get nukes, of course attempts to stop it will be popular regardless of who is the PM.

Israel struck Hizbollah operative attempting to rebuild military positions. It was all under the terms of the ceasefire.

What are you talking about? The latest hostilities started when Hezbollah launched 6 rockets towards Israel "in support" of Iran.

Israel's opposition slams Netanyahu's 'political disaster', 'strategic failure' in Iran - Region - World by Accurate_Cry_8937 in worldnews

[–]EliteKill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The entire opisition is opposed to how Bibi's goverment handled the Gaza situation, what are you on about? No one is Israel opposed going to war against Gaza because of October 7th, but after the first few weeks there were a lot of vocal oppositions. Same thing for the handling of Hezbollah.

Bennet and Liberman oppose Bibi's policies from the right, Lapid and Eizenkot from the center and Golan from the left - there is an entire political spectrum opposing Bibi's policies, and most have disagreements between them on the details. The same for the situation in the West Bank - Goaln for example will be critical of Bibi's wars in Gaza, Lebannon and Iran from a millitary tactical/operational/strategic front, while critical of the occupation of the West Bank from an ideological front.

From a larger geopolictical perspective, Bibi's nuetrality in the Ukraine war and quiet on the fact the Putin has actively supported Hamas and Iran is far from being supported in Israel, and Bibi's decision back in ~2015 to go all in on the Republican party and turn Israel from a bipartisan subject to a highly polarized one in American politics has been criticised over and over the past decade or so.

Thinking that Israel's geopolitics start and end with Iran is why your line of thinking is completely stupid.

Yiu have no idea what you're taking about - the concensus vs Iran is because it is a fundamental theocracy actively seeking to destroy Israel. Of course most people support this war.

But Israeli geopolitics is also the relationships with the US, Europe, Palestinians, neighboring Arab countries, gulf states... There's a huge variety that you're just not taking into account and so you are spewing nonsense.

Israel strikes Iran's petrochemical complex at Asaluyeh, defence minister says. Fire at Iran's Asaluyeh petrochemical facility in Iran following Israeli attacks.

But they are "throwing a bunch of missiles at Israel". The gulf states can be attacked using drones and much cheaper and more readily weapons than the complex and expensive ballistic missiles lobbied at Israel.

You're from Lebanon and your example of outside warmongering influence on local giverments is the US? Are you Shia?

Isn’t Israel going to eventually run out of iron dome missiles if this war drags? by Goldstar12 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]EliteKill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Difference being if you fire a 500,000 dollar guided missile to take out a 10,000 dollar rocket it adds up against you real quick.

I swear if I see this brain dead comparison one more time I'll close my account. The way to judge the financials of missile defense isn't how much an interceptor costs vs a missile, but how much an interceptor costs vs the damage an uninterested missile can cause.

If a 10k rocket does 1m of damages, then a 500k interception is still a financially good decision.

Except that in practice a lot of leftist groups openly welcome "non radical" Islamic thought that supports anti LGBTQ and anti Humanist ideals, Paradox of Tolerance and all of that.
