Hmm, now replace Iran with the USA, and tell me how would you feel if someone has bombed your embassy and killed a bunch of its employees? Would you still tell us that the US should not retaliate?
I mean both of you are correct. I find it difficult to say that Iran would be wrong to retaliate. They have all the right in the world to do so.
Would it be a wise decision? I don’t think so. A war against Israel wouldn’t be beneficial for them. But if they start one, they are fully within their rights.
Iran is not the United States. We have the military might to strike anywhere in the world. We can invade any country in the world.
Iran can’t do any of those things. I get why they want to strike back but strategically it’s a bad move.
I think they should pitch their case to the UN. Israel should not have attacked their consulate. It wasn’t an embassy that was attacked.
Hell I support Israel but I can’t defend attacking the consulate. I won’t even attempt to defend that.
Hmmm, you realise that your actions have consequences, right?
If you oppress people for decades and then act surprised when they strike back, or when you strike a foreign embassy in a foreign country, you can’t really expect to get a carte blanche for all your shit, you know.
And honestly Netanyahu is doing all possible to prolong this war, otherwise he is toast and hopefully imprisoned toast for all the shit he has done.
Regarding Iran, think about, how would you feel if Iran has bombed your consulate in let’s say Armenia and killed a bunch of people? But at this point I highly doubt you are capable of critical thinking and/or human empathy.
Iran isn’t an Arab nation, nor Afghanistan or a plethora of other countries we’ve fought.
Your point stands though. That’s why they revert to terrorism.
I think we should have allied with Iran to fight isis

I don’t know that is the best analogy.

And that’s exactly the double standards I was talking about. Letting someone act with impunity creates a very dangerous precedent.
It’s not a double standard. It’s just a fact.
If they escalate with Israel. It won’t benefit Iran. Netanyahu isn’t afraid to use further force. He’s shown that in Gaza.
Might makes right is the dumbest position, bar none.
Glad nobody claimed that.
Let him use it more. He will get the hitler treatment
You are right. Iran doesn’t know that Tehran will be turned into a hot sheet of glass if it fucks around too hard.
Edit: true know-nothings downvoting this post. We’re on the verge of war with Iran right now, wait and see. Hope you’re right.

Israel has been oppressing Iran for decades? Delusional. Who do you think give Hamas all its suicide bombs and rockets?
Are you trying to tell me that Palestinians were living the life in Israel before the 7th of October. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_violations_against_Palestinians_by_Israel#:~:text=Reports of human rights violations against Palestinians by Israel include,illegal interference with privacy%2C family%2C.

I don’t know what it would take for Israel to use nukes but I hope we don’t find out.
Yeah. Because Arab nations don’t have the resources as Western ones, they typically have to resort to terrorism to fight back.
This is why the “war on terror” is such a big deal. It means that any poor nation who tries to fight a wealthy one is immediately in the wrong.

Right now you are talking like a high school bully.
