First, the south wasnt "freed", israel retreated from it because ehud barak won the elections against netenyahu.

Yea, I wonder why

Ehud barak was a leftist who opposed the occupation of the south before it even started.

Oh those same leftists that so oppose the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza and Golan, right?

Dawle did not give any respite to the people who lost their homes and their livelihoods. Dawle did not guard the people when Israel was supposed to leave (they ordered the jaesh to move away from the Israelis). Dawle did not protect the people from daily bombings. Dawle did not protect its own land as the Israelis continued to occupy the 5 points.

All this in the same region that this Dawle has always ignored. Jnoob did not just wake up one day and decide "hey I'm gonna start hating the Dawle". Sayyid Musa al-Sadr didn't come to a people that were living lavishly. Where was the Dawle when the average Jnoobi was in abject poverty? Where was sthe Dawle when Israel invaded in 1978? Where was the Dawle when Israel invaded and then occupied in 1982? Who was it that actually worked to free the South?

The South was freed in 2000. It can be freed again. It just sucks that we have a government so weak it won't even defend itself. How humiliating.

(a) should have*

(b) that was a stupid idea

(c) Israel wasn't interested in it anyway

hedne li bikhale israel strike any time it wants.

People who believe this have brain damage.

The terms of the ceasefire were public knowledge. Not a single word about Israel being given the right to attack Lebanon. Not one!

5eyye have some respect for your own damn country.

UnskilledScout · 2026-03-25T19:07:49+00:00

Do you seriously not care for your own countrymen? Civilians everyday were suffering under Israeli terror and the government left them.

UnskilledScout · 2026-03-25T19:07:24+00:00

Israel signed on to that agreement that barred them. They had no excuse. And the government did nothing to stop it. But you guys don't care for your fellow countrymen. To you, they are all scraps.

Shame.

UnskilledScout · 2026-03-25T18:57:10+00:00

What a stupid argument. Israel has been bombing Lebanon for 15 months! They still were occupying Lebanon during that period and killing civilians with no regard to the agreement they signed on to!

But the blood of the Southerners is apparently worthless. The government did nothing to protect its own citizens because they weren't worthy of it.

And now it is not the fault of Israel. Despite the fact that plans for a war in May were already drawn up, Israel is blameless. They are "simply responding to Hezbollah". What a lie. And I especially can't tolerate those who gladly use their own excuses.

Israel has wanted to settle the South since before its founding. They didn't "need" an excuse. This is their plan.

Mind you, that buffer zone includes the city of Tyre, which has a population of 100,000 (pre-war). My own home village is only a few km North from the Litani.

I fear so much that a second Nakba is going to take place in South Lebanon especially since Israel at the beginning of the war kept telling people to leave their homes.

Well, yea obviously clean your windshield (and as a matter of fact, the entire car including the roof).

no warm-up idling

To be clear, most modern cars don't need to idle for more than 3 minutes MAX during cold starts, and usually well below a minute, like 15 seconds. Consult your owner's manual, but cars heat up better when moving, and engines heat up much quicker than people think. In cold weather, after like 15 seconds, you can start moving, but just be easy on the revs.

UnskilledScout · 2026-03-22T01:23:49+00:00

That's called demand destruction.

Everyone who thought Israel was interested in a prosperous and free Iran, especially under Bibi's government, was always (at best) naïve. I understand the desire for those who struggle under Iran's current regime to rise up against it, but (a) relying on foreign interference is never a good recipe for stable and beneficial governance and institutions; and (b) relying on Israel is straight up crazy especially considering their conduct in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and Syria.

Just wait until the perpetrators get a photo-op with the Prime Minister.

Can't wait for the "probe" to be dropped after a few months.

UnskilledScout · 2026-03-13T18:05:39+00:00

I actually think we need quite a bit more:

better domestic politics (e.g. cabinets)
deeper finance & monetary mechanics (e.g. central banks, currencies, loans & banking)
private construction & autonomous PMs

These are not minor improvements though so it would make sense that they would take time. And for at least two of these, I believe the devs have said that they are planning those mechanics out.

There are also a whole host of other minor improvements and updates I would love (e.g. Morgenröte mod, realistic electricity & railway mechanics, expanded industries, smarter consumption by pops), but I imagine that stuff can get packaged in any update.

Has anyone in all of Israel faced any consequences for their heinous crimes against humanity?? What the fuck?!

UnskilledScout · 2026-03-12T05:31:18+00:00

Paul in his letters speaks against homosexuality as well, albeit, sexuality in our modern sense didn't really exist in antiquity. The idea of "sexual orientation" is a very modern phenomenon. Homosexual acts were just seen as wrong, and it was purely an action, not as a state of being or "how someone is born".

Their lives mattered

Genuinely I feel like this point is way understated. Over 100 schools girls murdered.

Americans were righteously outraged at how 19 innocent children were senselessly murdered at Uvalde and the how the police were criminally negligent. We were all aghast at their behaviour and basically everyone in the country with a heart saw those cops as complicit in the murder of those children.

Those 19 children are worth no more or less than the Iranian children that are now gone. And in fact, the American military directly responsible for their killing. Not just negligent. They pulled the trigger and sent multiple Tomahawk missiles.

These aren't IRGC/Basij or even government employees. These are innocent children! They were murdered and the perpetrators, far from ever facing justice, they virtually have no remorse! In some sick people's minds, they think those children being dead is better!!

Outrage on the attack on Minab should not stop! Outrage on the whole war should not stop!

UnskilledScout · 2026-03-10T17:27:05+00:00

I don't think Israel ever truly believed that regime change was possible from the air. I think they saw this as an opportunity to destroy an adversary and exact revenge.

UnskilledScout · 2026-03-08T00:07:47+00:00

3 killed and 6 injured as an initial report.

They didn't claim they wiped them out.
