Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

[tsunset]

A February has 28 days and the sky is blue and therefore you are wrong and the US is evil.


I'm sure Iran is less genocidal and criminal, and evil, than the US and if we ever decide to target those systems, we will make sure that parents will not be forced to evacuate their children from a hospital dedicated to kids with cancer.

You know, if it were the thread for the US perspective on war, you had already been thread banned for petty bickering. Be thankful to @Persian Gulf that he's handling here quite well and professionally, unlike your friends on the other thread.

It doesn't matter

Iran at this point has to right to target anything belonging to the US, civilian or military, pre-warning or not

Fair enough. I will accept that statement at face value without contesting it.

Do you think that being less evil will help, or hinder, Iran in its present war?

Absolutely agreed.

War is war.

Iran must fight as best as it can against an adversary that will do the same thing.

Any thoughts on what Trump will announce Thursday night during his address to the Nation? I am guessing making a case for ground forces?

apparently it’s something about Chinese interference in American elections. Not related to Iran.

 

[Persian Gulf]

Even if the US/Israel hadn't, it would be unwise of Iran to not do it, if it believes that it can attain its desired results.

However, the absurdly dense arguments that are being presented here just for the sake of cheerleading one side, or the other, are reaching Indian levels of self-awareness.

Yeah, it’s not possible to reconcile with the MOU wording, at least during the first 60 days.

As if Russia, or EU, or everyone's favorite Israel, or any number of other countries, do not do the same thing!

Rational and civilized countries should act less evil because if the values we humans have created for our societies fall apart, all of us will eventually suffer from its consequences in the long term.

That's why as humans we have reached the conclusion that even wars need to have rules. Of course, these rules can be violated but it will lead to more suffering for all sides in the long run.

Those are noble words indeed, but what is the answer to my simple question:

Do you think that being less evil will help, or hinder, Iran in its present war?

Reported for "petty bickering".

Guys let's talk about any updates from Iran please.

 

[BananaRepublic]

What "rights" does Iran have within Omani coastal waters?

Oman is a vassal state facilitating murder and mayhem on Iran.

US was attacked by Bin Laden.

US used that as pretext to occupy two countries.

Iran is being extremely generous to Oman.

 

[BananaRepublic]

LOL. Do you wish to apply to same standard for legitimacy to the present map of the world, or just to the few countries you wish?

I do agree Iran is an ancient country and civilization, relatively speaking. But that does not negate any other's countries to the same rights, at least based on your selective logic above.

Therefore, your rationale to justify Iran's acts while denying similar rights to others in the region is merely hypocritical.

I want to apply that standard at least to the ones facilitating genocides!!!

Funny how some people do not see their double standards.

The US is attacking Iran because they consider Iran to be a threat to, wait for it..., Israel!

So, not only the US invaded two countries over 9/11, countries that had almost nothing to do with planning or coordinating the attack, but they are attacking countries because they're deemed a threat to some other country.

Guys let's talk about any updates from Iran please.

Iran's responses to the current wave of attacks, that are steadily decreasing its abilities to attack shipping in the region, do not seem to make sense to me, but I am sure they have a plan whose wisdom escapes my limited understanding.

The results will tell us whose strategy is working out better in meeting their goals.
