Live updates: Iran’s retaliatory attack on Israel has begun

There is no way that murdering top Iranian officials in an Iranian embassy on Syrian soil was ever going to be anything but a gauntlet thrown down. If it was almost any other country than Israel the world would be outraged. Countries like the USA and Germany didn't pull support because of things like destroying hospitals and killing innocents, so bombing the embassy of a country as reviled as Iran inside Syria wasn't going to stop them.

Netanyahu knows his days in power are done very shortly after Israel leaves a condition of all-out war. Biden has told him that, his polls tell him that, and protestors tell him that. I think he's poking the local bears to escalate and stay in power by extending the conflict. Both Biden and Trump have promised support so Netanyahu is acting with the backing of the world's largest military no matter who wins. Pulling the USA and other Western countries into another war in the Middle East is his best bet of pushing that day of reckoning way down the road.

Thanks, Israel for dragging world into a war just because your genocide.

Holy shit, the thread about this on .ml is absolutely disgusting. Masks are completely off.

Donate to legal funds for those who get captured by police on April 15th or get your ass to a demonstration. This needs to stop.

Nutshell:

• Iran has launched more than 100 drones toward Israel.
• The Biden administration expects Iran will also launch dozens of cruise missiles and dozens of ballistic missiles.
• It will be hours before the drones arrive.

This entire war is a lesson that politicians who promote "security" over peace will end up with a less secure country than what they inherited.

I worry we’re weeks or months away from nuclear war at this point :( Sad day for humanity that these wars keep getting bigger instead.

I hope they'll get what they deserve for everything they did in the last months. Genocidal state.

It's not retaliatory unless Israel has (recently) attacked Iran, which they haven't. It should be considered revenge, not retaliation.

Presumably Israel will respond in force. I'd hate to be living in Tehran right now.
