Reminder that Israel couldn't even defend itself from Iran: they had to enlist Jordan and Egypt, plus the US and UK. All because a stupid warmonger is in charge.
What? Nooo. They would obviously take control of the situation there, put forward a two state solution and everyone would live happily ever after. Now it's Israel with the military capabilities of Israel that's annihilating an entire country.. ..is what a pro-Hamas person would probably say.
My original point being that Israel does have that capability yet they're not using it to the fullest. They could commit a literal genocide if they wanted but they don't. Hamas would but they can't.
Remember when Biden said it was a big deal they only got a weeks notice about the attack, and was only notified of time and target a few hours before it started?
Israel had told the US on Thursday it would be retaliating against Iran in the coming days, a senior US official said.

Netanyahu did in fact not "take the win".

We don't really know that they couldn't, just that they didn't

Yeah, they definitely could. Despite their bogus victim narrative, they're by far the most militarily powerful and active country in the region.

I sometimes wish Hamas had the military capabilities of Israel and vice versa so the world would see what they'd use them for.

So you sometimes wish for the annihilation of an entire country just so you can go "we told you so"?
That's not ghoulish and fucking unhinged at all, no sirree! 😬

Fun fact: you can be against terrorism and genocide at the same time. In fact, most people not blinded by gaslighting and other disinformation are.

The cost was significant though. It's not like Israel can afford to do that often.
DoomBot5@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
Yup, hence the assistance from other countries.

I went right to the source. I have no idea what they are saying though. Agenda free TV is good too.

The US didn't pass their warning on to anyone.
Biden just let it fucking happen
