    The British Defense Secretary John Healey says Iran launched two missiles toward Cyprus. Healey confirmed thousands of British troops are stationed in Cyprus, which also hosts significant IOF reserve bases, air defense, and intelligence infrastructure.

    ■ Cyprus has played a key logistical and military role for the IOF, US, and UK in carrying out the Gaza genocide.

    ■ Hezbollah’s martyred leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah warned Cyprus in 2024, “[Israel believes] that if their own airports are targeted, they will use Cypriot airports and facilities. Therefore, the Cypriot government must understand that opening Cypriot airports and bases for war against Lebanon will make Cyprus an enemy of the war.”

    ■ Now, Iran is striking back at Cyprus for their role in carrying out Western aggression against the region.

    I will add that AryJeay & EyesOnSouth1 are a lot more reliable than some of the other random accounts out there I’m not posting any sources I haven’t got a read on prior to this year. (They’re not doomers but they kind of Prigozhin post at times if you catch my drift)

    Really? How many times do you think you can hit people with “we are going to do things to you that have never been done before” without using nukes or something?

    Israel intentionally puts military targets inside densely populated civilian areas.

    Mossad, their intelligence agency, is one example…

    When you hear Israel complaining that Iran has killed civilians, just know that it’s because Israel intentionally uses Israelis as human shields.

        I don’t support killing civilians. I’m just pointing out the fact that Israel intentionally has military infrastructure in the middle of densely populated areas.

            As an example, in the USA where I live.

            I don’t support racists who use their first amendment protections from the USA constitution to say dumb, stupid shit.

            But I also don’t support killing them.

            Please don’t support murder of civilians, even if they are dumb, racist, antisemitic, mother fuckers (as the Israeli settlers are in the West Bank).

            I do feel your sentiments though. Israeli civilians are not looking their best on the world stage at the moment.

            If you need someone to direct your ire at, look to politicians who support the Israeli government you can work to vote out of office.

      Im jewish and fully agree. Israel has done more harm to the Jewish diaspora than nearly anything else in modern history. I pray that the innocent are spared but there are exceedingly few innocents there.

          Their hacker groups were actually collecting info from conscientious objectors a few weeks ago. As in literally offering to spare their lives.

        Why do women get a pass? They are just as culpable as members of the IDF or supporting the genocide. Lacking a dick doesn’t give you a pass.

        No, that’s not how indigeneity works under international law, and key Zionist figures called themselves settlers and colonizers.

          Interestingly I have met Palestinian Jews whose families have lived there for hundreds of years but they all hate Israel, either left to avoid impressment into the IDF or went to jail to avoid it and wish the Zionist state would cease to exist and prefer a Palestinian government. Weird how that is only the white Europeans who moved there want this.

        Yes, Ewwropeans are native to East Asia. Most people living in the settler entity are Russians, I guess that will change your mind since they are orcs or whatever you people believe.

      In all honesty, neither party deserves any good luck.

      I’d wish civilians don’t suffer, but that’s the only certain consequence in any war.

            They bombed a effing school

            https://www.trtworld.com/article/6647f610c6df

            I thought all the imbeciles would be MAGA supporters but this discussion

            You are the maga supporter by supporting this war

            It’s not even clear if the genocide in Gaza has the goal of killing people (which is the precise reason why it’s not 100% sure the ICJ will end up ruling it’s a genocide *), and you say that “war” (doesn’t matter if you mean this specific one or war in general) has the goal of massacring people?

            ICJ declared the genocide in Bosnia 12 years after it happened. Multiple genocide and holocaust expert agree that it is a genocide. Israeli leaders statements and damage on the ground shows that is a genocide

              Does that prove that “the goal of war is to kill ton of civilians intentionally”? How? Please explain.

                What is the strategic value in bombing schoolchildren intentionally? The goal is clearly to inflict harm on children, to bring death to children.

            • To reduce suffering, a large source of it needs to have their international influence reduced.

              EDIT: In case it isn’t clear, I mean the Israeli government needs to be fucking dismantled, the billionaires need to be taxed to have their class be nonexistent, and free, non-biased education needs to be the norm.

              The optimal solution to that is killing everyone.

              Yeah, that’s not what you meant. But the problem here is exactly that you don’t think enough and talk out of your ass.

                Lmao middle school philosopher here unironically posting a thought experiment as if it actually applies in the real world. No, the act of murdering everyone would create a near infinite rise in suffering as it progresses. Don’t post infantile takes on things that actually matter to the material world. Save it for your professor.
