Iranian missile strikes injure 115 in Israel, officials say, puncturing air defenses and shocking the public

Only good nazi is a dead nazi. A decade from now I'll be making a toast to the heroes who finally shot back at isreal.

Won't SOMEBODY think of the genociders????

I'd rather Iran be killing soldiers than innocent too, but I understand why people can't get but feel this way at this point. There's been literally zero justice against Israel, and it's so extreme what they've gotten away with, that I fully understand the schnaudenfreude many will be feeling at seeing Israel seeing any form of repercussions at this point.

That a overwhelming majority of the population isn't strongly against their government doesn't help either.

So while you do have a point, it would kind of be like trying to shame lgbtq+ people for being happy an apartment in Berlin got bombed during WW2... Especially considering we are essentially in WW3, in great part started by Israel, who is also currently trying another genocide run in Lebanon now.

I don't think the US should exist either. If a settler colonial state exists it should be put down like the diseased rabid dog it is. That includes Israel, America, and Canada. The only acceptable terms for settlers is relinquishing control to the original inhabitants of the land.

Yes, one can hope that one day americans get exactly the sort of treatment they have done on the world.

USians on Reddit kept blabbering for four years how “all decent Russians left Russia, only supporters of Putin and the war are still there”. So it must be pretty easy, just need to get on the plane and fly away.

That's blatant propaganda meant to excuse an apartheid state. Jews are as safe in any western country as they are in Israel. I've known many and I garuntee you they don't get anywhere the level of danger and hate the average trans person gets on a day to day basis.

Just to put the scale of this into context, the strike on the girl's school wasn't the first thing they did, those three strikes were among the first 700 strikes carried out on day one (1200 in the first 36 hours).

thanks for calling me a fuckwit really made my day ❤️

Maybe not - though the anti-Israel stance of most / many leftist certainly seems to be getting pretty rabid. And the person I called a 'leftist' didn't dispute that claim.

It's a common Israeli talking point to associate any critique of their government with antisemitism.

It's very transparent.

It's the same people acting as mouthpieces that are silent when Israel actually targets hospitals or their soldiers torture babies and rape prisoners. Hard to pretend they aren't the ones indoctrinated to hate a specific set of people.

Your hate towards anyone that isnt subservient to Israel has turned a massively shitty theocratic regime into some kind of weird underdog worth cheering for.

It's like if Italy and Germany were fighting in WW2 and you dont understand why people are cheering on Italy, but even more, you actually think the Nazis are the good guys. Everyone else is simply going "they both suck but one is clearly worse than the other, because of the genocide and all".

Put all the quotes that you like but you are either against Zionism or pro genocide.

Also, the poor and disadvantaged people are more likely to be outside / not in shelters.

I get the proportionality bias, the feeling of wanting to make things even, and also the survey / voting record based statistics. I still feel that violence towards civilians will only cause more hurt down the road, and so we shouldn't cheer it on. Regardless of which side inflicts it.

I don't know if this news article is referring to civilians, I haven't read it yet. My comment is specific to this comment chain

no...but i'll say it again because you can't seem to read. They'll roll into Palestine and burn homes and attack people. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/terrifying-footage-of-israeli-settlers-on-their-way-to-set-fire-to-homes-on-west-bank/ar-AA1ZauMh

Also fuck off with the "Civilians don't fight wars" IN ISRAEL THEY DO! Israel has a conscription. Holy shit man, every Jewish man and woman has to serve, every male Druze has to serve, every male Circassian has to serve. Their military is LITERALLY made up of civilians.

Their contribution to the economy helps their country wage war.

It isn't pretty, but it's the truth.

One thing many people have surprisingly low comprehension of is that people ≠ government.

Regular Israeli civilians did not partake in the war, did not cause the apartheid, and did not steal the land. They were born there, or went there on a promise of entering a friendly Jewish community - not of murdering people.

People defending this have a surprisingly low comprehension of the fact that Israelis, generally speaking, are literate and educated enough to be aware of the fact that most of the "Oh, we're just a nice friendly Jewish community" is a lie and their taxes and labor will go towards supporting this stuff. Israelis are not stupid people, they are not incapable of accessing news and information from non-Israeli sources. The longer Israel continues to be such a predatory, imperial state, the less sympathy I have for the civilian population that says "Oh, I don't actually support this, but my mom and dad live here and won't move, so I have to stay here." Well, fuck your mom and dad, and fuck you too if that applies to you. At this point, I only have sympathy for the small portion of the population who are either actively opposing this regime from within, or who are planning on leaving and are still in the process of finalizing their departure.

This is catastrophic when it happens to Palestinians, and not much better should it happen to Israelis.

Considering that the longer we avoid this for the Israelis, more of their neighboring countries are going to experience it, I will once again be unequivocal in saying, screw the Israelis in that case. I would much prefer that literally every resident of Israel gets told to screw off back to where they came from, rather than to see the genocide and displacement of the Palestinians be expanded to the Syrians, Lebanese and other neighboring nations, like Israel has already signaled it's intent to do.

My sympathy for the Israeli people is directly proportional to their opposition to the actions of the Israeli government, which seems unlikely to change much, considering that this is just the continuation of decades of Israeli policy, rather than some exceptional state that only emerged because they were attacked once by Hamas. Contrary to what Israeli propaganda would have us believe, this isn't something special that is only happening because the Israelis were shocked by one particular attack.
