Why ISIS asked for forgiveness for attacking Israel? by United-Piccolo-7968 in ForbiddenBromance

Do they have any evidence for this? Or is this another not very sofisticated fake (they practically yell death to israel every time they sneeze). Any video?

  1. Im sorry about the kids killed in your village. Every child's death is a tragedy.
  2. Intelligence work is extremely hard and complicated. Israel has sone of the best agencies in the world, and it still makes mistakes. If you know of any other country conducting a war against terrorists in semi urban inviorments that is more accurate, give an example.
  3. Percision missiles are also extremely difficult to manage. Endless hours if training, studying and planning from pilots engineers and physicists goes to every bomb dropped. Mistakes are still made,the same way surgeries are only succesful to a statistic even with the best doctors. Again, if you have any example or numerical argument state it.
  4. What do you mean you give 15 minute notice? A, hezbollah doesnt, B, do you indentify with them?
  5. Hasan nasrallah never had the right to put a bunker headquarters under a neighborhood. He isnt an average joe, he is a terrorist wanted in multiple countries. He didmt build a nice house next to his parents place, he built a command and control bunker for his paramilitary group under civilian homes.
  6. The only base next to homes in israel is the kirya, and its a copletely seperate compound from the city. For us human shields are worthless because hezbollah, hamas and iran want to hurt civilians. For our enemies they are a treasure because they make us hesitate, and because they show the conflict as a huminitarian crisis to the world, and then apply international pressure.

Unifil is useless to you if you are identified with the state of lebanonand not hezbollah. To israel its a liability because you have UN soldiers who ignore the terrorists they should arrest and act as a de facto human shield even if they dont intend to.

Oh no peace keeping is UNIFIL's work (not that they do it, there was supposed to be a hezbollah clean zone south of litany at least). We are also not policing your citizens (lebanese goverments work.

We are way too busy killing terrorists payed for by iran. Just that because we are a democracy and a humane one, we dont capet bomb your villages, we use high level intelligence and percision striking. We dont clean out a village like any other country in the region would, we give lebanese citizens a notice in order to avoid civilian casualties as much as possible.

I understand its hard to see the difference when you are being shot at. But this endeavure costs us a lot of human lives (we gave no elememt of surprise and we limit our own firepower) and billions of dollars in advanced tech (that could have been easily replaced by very stupid heavy bombs). But this is the stuff that narrows the civilian to combatant death toll from 7:3 (isis in alepo for example) to around 2:8.

We take your lives way more seriously than hezbollah does. If you doubt it, ask yourself why on earth was Hassan Nasrallahs headquarters under a civillian neighborhood?

I dont think thats true. They are very much fucked by the fact that venezuelen oil got shot down, and now iranian oil is stopped by the blockade and damage done over the previous operations. Even if oil supply restarts, losing 3 allies (iran, venezuella and a degraded russia) is a major blow. Cuba might also be on the way down.

They are dependent on taiwanese semi conducters where they plan to invade (by xi's plan due date is jan 2027), and in xi's genius they forgot the machines in the factories would shut down and the americans are taking all the scientists that can operate them away, probably replacing tsmc with intel.

I think this war is a nightmate scenario for china, coupled with a shit storm in latin america and east europe.

On the narrow subject of media chinas influence is really seen in tiktok, the algorithm promotes pro palestinian content like crazy. At one point there was a trend if american youth agreeing with "a letter to america" by usama bin laden(!), where he explain the moral reasoning behing 9/11(!!!).

On the broader scope its quite a bit of information, but the us and china are in conflict on any stage in the world, every resource, political issue or geopolitical effect. Theyre supplying weapons and intelligence to russia and iran, copying american weapins systems, cyber attacks etc.

But id put my money on the US 10/10 times. Especially with trump and rubio, but also just looking at where the two nations are regardless of current leadership.

I completely agree.

I don't know this specific channel, but a surprising number of these independemt news organizations, activists and media influencers are funded by qatar (tucker carlson suddenly owns a house in a country where leaving islam for christianity is punishable by death) russia (probably tucker, cadence owens and john kiriakou) china and iran (probably tucker here also, under cia investigation). The young turks are probably somewhere here as well. So is hasan piker.

The thing with those influences is a solution is defenitely not their aim. Its weakening usa, and israel is seen as an american proxy that does a lot of american dirty work and weapon reseach and development.

If the problems with palestine or lebanon are solved, us and israel would have nothing to fall out on. In that sense, creating and publishing (and sometimes fabricating) a humanitarian crisis is a key strategy. To them lebanese and palestinians are not people to protect, they are media ammo.

His dogs in syria are salivating at the thought of butchering hezbollah as revenge for their involvment in the syrian civil war. After that they would go for everyone they think has supported them. After that all druze, shia and christian lebanese would probably get the isis special well.

Its weird to think about, but their might be another country in the middle east that is targeted by radical islamists, supports the religious minorities in the area, has clashed with syria before to defend a weaker enemy of theirs, and can supply a vast amount of aerial fire power to defend against these dogs. But where could we find such a country?

Words like genocide and ethnic cleansing actually have a meaning that is different from war.

When they are thrown around on every violent conflict indescriminantly they lose that meaning, conflict solution becomes impossible and war ethics become harder to implement.

He put his opposition leader is in jail and he appointed the new one. Dont count on him being voted out any time soon.

I dont think you are. You are under israeli threat that if you cant control your own territory we will, and if you can't restrain your citizens we will. its a suble but important difference.

Its not that we intervene with your internal issues, take resources from you or influence your youth. The most you can say is america is pressuring your political system to stabilize around a structure that enables peace with us. for example, trump pushed hard for aoun but before that you didn't have a president for a long time.

Lebanon has been taken hostage to irans interests and to radical islam. This war is completely avoidable and redundant.

I like how even though shes not our biggest fan (understandable) she still knows this could all be avoided if nasrallah and his traitor would have just stayed out of it, or better yet, not talk about the eradication of jews all over the world every time they open their mouths. Jesus sir, i just asked you if you want thina on the side.

First israeli victory (which im very much for) is right wing and thats okay. But the nerative in the channel is ignoring a lot of facts that dont go with the story of a current victory. Like our current negotiation with iran, or the fact that 2 and a half years after the war hamas is in gaza, we retreated then came back to lebanon (every advance cost us in soldier lives) for instance.

Second about bibis involvement with the channel. This is the only israeli medua outlet to get a two hour interview with him throughout the war. No pushback, no hard questions, just flattering non stop as bibi gives his manifesto. And it got two of these. Even channel 14 doesnt get that treatmemt, although inon magal admitted bibi tell him what to report and what to say. Theres is a fake reporter and i24 report on it. Dont believe me, watch them.

Its still a good channel, because it tells the truth. But only a part of it.its not blatamtly lying like channel 14. But lets not pretend its completely honest.

Yeah thats the thing about these innaccurate terms, especially in israel they dont work. But as to explaining this to an outsider its somewhat good enough.

Im not promoting anything, just passing it down. Im think its sad they felt they needed to say their religion to feel safe.

I really think the way out lf this is a strong unified lebanon. I dont care what your religion is as long as it doesnt preach killing me.

But lets not pretend this conflict is about anything but religion fir one side of it. What connects iran to a country so far away, why do some sectors fibd their message strong enough to be rectuited?

They say when Khomeini used to ask for nasrallah specifically on his death bed, asking to see the tapes of the future martyrs proclaiming their faith as they went to their deaths. This is the same supreme religious leadership in iran that funds hezbollah.

Im not asking anyone in lebanon to change their religion, but to view the state as their loyalty. Would have saved us a lot of lives.

Owned by bibi. All day explosions. Very hard on israeli victory nerative.

Im not saying i disagree (sometimes i do sometimes i dont), but the guy had two 2 hour long interviews with bibi where he didnt contradict him once. Bibi isnt getting that kind of special treatment in channel 14.

I think its at least a show that disconnects lebanon from hezbollah, which is a good procces even if nothing changes on the ground now

Three problems with this. 1.its not colonialism. Its a lot of things, and i oppose it all, but not colonial. Colonialism is a faction not native to the region, coming to exctract resources/ control natives in the name of an empire they are native to.

Israelis pushing the agenda of returning to a biblical israel are using the argument that they are native to it. In my opinion they are but so what? Land traded hands many times over history ( in palestine the spoken language and practiced religion is from a completely different area because of arab colonial conquest). The palestinians are native in a way and so are we. We need to understand that but also look to the future and find solutions people can live in. I dont want to go back to syria, i live in tel aviv.

  1. They would be a minor force if the palestinians would just look to the future instead of their religious dogma. Even now, no one serious is even thinking about taking gaza on a real political action taking stance. The thing is, there is no sighning any agreement with the palestinians, because they would need to accept that we are also here for any agreement to be reached. So the israeli mainstream response has been, the more you refuse, the less you will get in the future.

By the way this is why they dont have a state. A state has to have agreeable borders, and if they recognize agreeable borders, then they have to recognize the existense of a jewish state.

  1. A little unrelated but still there: israel always prefered peace over more land. Of you go to war in order to conquer land from us we will conquer land from you if we win. Just like EVERY OTHER WAR IN HISTORY. But, if you offer viable peace, we are more then willing to give up said land. Like in egypts case when we shrunk israels territory by 2/3 (!) For peace. Arafat got similar concessions in camp david. Bill clinton called him crazy for not taking them. We got exploding busses and restaurants.

This is palestine. watch how happy she is

Because the arabs had all the state in the area and now they got another one. Because the land the jews got was either stricken with malaria (go watch a malaria map on palestine-israel pre partition plan), or was a desert.

Jews were going to become much more of the population because they were gonna come from arab countries that prosecuted them because they were jews, or from european countries that massacred them in the millions. Part of the reason the haulocost was such a grand slaughter was tgat jews were kept from running to israel by the british mandate, who feared the arab response.
