Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

They could've literally just done nothing, Iran's strike was just a warning after the consulate was bombed and they showed considerable restraint considering that big-cool idf-cool

Israel: Commits war crimes, perfidy, breaches the geneva AND vienna conventions openly, slaughtering and sieging and starving civilian populations in the millions

Iran: Gave warning and gave a limited strike on military airbases

Westoids: These are the same thing! Actually, Iran is even worse!

strangelove ive always maintained that iran must get their own nukes

Trueanon rule number NaN: Never, ever, give up your nukes. If you don't have any, BUILD THEM. If you absolutely have to get rid of them, always keep ONE hid in reserve.

I always thought Iran was perpetually in the “we don’t have nukes but have the capacity to make one in a week if you piss us off” camp. We won’t really know unless history takes a bad turn really fast which it might idk

The Iranians aren’t stupid, they’ve produced their own domestic drones and hypersonics. They’ll reveal their capabilities on their own time.
