        What a stupid inference. Israel are terrorists. Hezbollah are terrorists. Nobody who kills innocents is good. There’s a lot more that I want to say, but I’m trying not to be a dick.

          Ah yes the classic solution to the trolly problem where you stand on the side of the track and tell everyone you are morally superior to people who want to pull the leaver.

            If Israel was saving innocents by doing this, that might be a more compelling argument.

        It is possible for both sides to be bad. In fact, I’d say it’s pretty common with the retaliation and escalation being “justified” by one side in reaction to what was done by another, resulting in forever-conflicts where stoked by individuals who personally benefit from such.

        In most cases those supporting one or the other never acknowledge that though.

        I’m other words, Hezbollah is garbage. Hamas is garbage. The Israeli government is largely garbage. The fervent supporters of the above that keep them in power… also garbage.

            Man, we’re watching one side commit genocide in real time, and the other side wishing they could commit genocide.

            If one’s primary interest in the region is “No genocide please”, both sides are, indeed, pretty fucking close.

            This drivel is what happens when you just repeat words you’ve heard without grasping the having behind them.

            Any conflict where both sides have been huffing their own farts long enough to forget who they represent while they tear apart the land that normal people are just trying to go about their lives on.

    Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been transferred to a secure location inside the country with heightened security measures in place, two regional officials briefed by Tehran told Reuters.

    The sources said Iran was in constant contact with Lebanon’s Hezbollah and other regional proxy groups to determine the next step after Israel announced that it had killed Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in a strike on south Beirut on Friday.

      Good. I hope he lives out the rest of his days in constant fear. Iran is a terrorist state.
