Not every international occurence deserves yarn on your conspiracy board. The tit-for-tat between Iran and Israel long predates the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Sure, the two countries (Iran and Russia) have a common enemy, but there is nothing new there either.
In short, this is another of your innumerable post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacies.
Ukraine/Russia is not the only factor in apparent US support for the attacks on Iran. The BRICS membership application for Iran and warming relations between Iran and the Saudis are also factors. The Iranian strikes may be a shot across the bow for the Saudis.
Israel is surrounded by countries that hate it, with the more extreme countries vowing to wipe them off the map. Itâs a sure bet then that any Democrat administration is going to side with Israelâs enemies.
This is really stupid. Israel has been willing and able to kick the asses of every country that has attacked it since it was reformed, and probably would be doing so to the terrorist countries if the US would stop interfering. Let Israel loose on the terrorists. It would give them something to worry about besides plotting against America.
Israel is not going to lose. We ought to be supporting themâŚ
Yeah, that only follows if you ignore the decades of antagonism between America and Iran.
Another post hoc ergo propter hoc bit of yarn for your board
The relationship dates back to the time of the Torah.
Cyrus the Great was one of the Israelites greatest heroes. He defeated the Neo-Babylonian Empire and returned the enslaved Jews to Israel.
During the time of the Shah both Israel and Iran were very close allies. Iran was one of only two majority Muslim countries to recognize Israel; the other was Turkey. They also had a vibrant Jewish minority population that was treated fairly.
Then the Revolution happened in 1979 and ended all of that. They remained allies in regards to Iraq. But after the Iran-Iraq war was settled the Islamic Republic became extremely hostile to Israel and began financially and materially supporting Palestinian terrorist groups.
Itâs a shame how it all turned out. And it wonât return to the previous status quo until the Mullahs are overthrown. Hopefully the Iranian people can do that one day.
Stunning
Iran has as much standing as Russia to complain about countries interfering in other countryâs affairs.
Yes, only the US is allowed to do such things.
So we are in an undeclared war with Iran. That puts protesting about attacks on Iran as not something they can reasonably expect us to be doing.
Iran says that the attack came from the Kurdish area in northern Iraq with likely involvement of the Mossad. Iran also claims that the attack caused little damage.
Israeli reports claim much more damage from the attack.
The US still has troops in northern Iraq, so it is likely that the US was complicit in the attack.
So what?
It is the bolded portion I am disputing. This back and forth betweeen Iran, Israel, and The U.S. has been going on for decades. Your attempt to blame this recent attack on Ukraine is ridiculous.
So there you go. Little damage. Not a problem.
My daughterâs ship, took them over 10 hours to record each serial number and lay out.
Why? Israel has been in a state of war with Iran (and several of their other ME neighbors) for decades. The official policy of Iran calls for the annihilation of Israel. Thatâs a major purpose for the cruise missiles that they build. Although they seem to have enough of them now that they are selling large numbers of them to Russia to be fired into Ukraine. Is that perhaps your beef with Israel blowing up their missile factory?
High-fives and a âwe told you soâ from Ukrainian government indicate otherwise.
Ukrainian advance knowledge is consistent with US involvement in the attack on the Iranian drone plant. The US and Ukraine have accused Iran of supplying drones to Russia for use in the war in Ukraine.
If this was the first timeâŚthe second timeâŚhell, even the tenth time that Israel had attacked Iran, Iâd think that you were onto something.
Israel has not officially confirmed that they were responsible for the attack.
It is possible that the US conducted the attack but is using Israel as a cover story with Israelâs approval. Iran is claiming that an unnamed foreign intel agency was involved. People are assuming that it was Mossad, but it could also be an American three-letter agency.
If the attack really came from Kurdish areas in northern Iraq, the US was almost certainly complicit.
Sure. But also: pure speculation
