Harrowing watch
Important though
I don’t get why gazans can’t watch the documentary and Israelis can’t watch the one from Gaza and then seek some common language of humanity
Because there probably isn’t a screen in Gaza that’s not been smashed to pieces.

The rapture?
Nah think that’s evangelical nonsense and possibly the cause of a lot of Christians not giving a shit about the earth especially in the states
Just relative peace
Relative prosperity
Lots of stuff
Think we and our kids and grandkids are in for a hard time

Looks like Israel is gonna be getting a taste of his own medicine.

I saw some videos of anti missile stuff. It was quite interesting that it shot the incoming missiles out of the sky.

Is it automated or is it people doing it?

In Sikhism this current age is known as the dark age where life is at its worst.

It's the iron dome, I believe it's fully automated, something like a 90%+ success rate.

It's all okay they had a jolly debate on news night, nothing to see here,they just have to accept a two state solution and get a diplomatic solution and political solution, not that difficult really is it?

UK forces have been used to defend Israel. F*cking outrageous.

Stay the f*ck out of it, they made their bed.

In lieu of my normal reticence, it's better to negate the impact of Iran's attack than it would be to let it happen.

I support the UK using its military to defend Israel to attempt to avoid escalation, whilst allowing Iran to save face.

It's not going to stop the escalation, rather than put us as a target because of Israels aggression.

Plus I don't agree with defending and enabling a terrorist state.

I do not agree, in principle, with Israel, but I also believe in looking at the bigger picture and maintaining the balance of power in the region. Allowing Iran to attack Israel, giving Israel more of a reason to retaliate more harshly than it could, and have less influence on Israel to persuade them not to retaliate against Iran, would be completely foolish.

There is a reason why many Sunni states in the region have formed an alliance with Israel, it's to ward off the effects of Iran. I think Israel's invasion in Lebanon is a flagrant violation of their sovereign territory, and is something I completely disagree with. Defending Israel from Iranian aggression, is probably just about the right thing to do, given the alternative. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, even if they're unpalatable - not as if we didn't defend the Ottomans in the 1800s.

Do we have that?

Do we fuck 😂 as someone whose primary role is UK air defence, we are woefully under prepared for any kind of strike. Massive capability gap in the UK of an actual integrated Air defence system.


(Although most the west has gone with the approach of Aircraft being used for air defence, as opposed to surface to air missiles)

Of course it's much 'easier' for a country like Israel to defend an area a 10th of the size particularly only populated locations.

More importantly, the USA is going to love any chance to attack Iran, even if they do it by giving Israel the weapons and means to do it for them.

The worry for me is how Israel responds to the hypersonic missiles that can get through their defences, I just hope they arnt thinking of sending something nasty like a dirty bomb or some kind of biological weapon.
