  • The IAEA agency reports information on nuclear projects to western countries. That being their job doesn't change what they do, it just legitimizes it.

    After having their nuclear sites targeted thanks to this information being known, Iran probably has little interest in making the same mistake again.

    Also their nuclear sites are utterly destroyed and they won't be able to do anything nuclear related for years, so what would they investigate anyway.

  • There's a difference between expecting some form of attack at any moment and knowing the strategy and extent of opening attack to expect (internal Mossad agents activation to sabotage systems prior to a massive bombardment). Iran can now go into overdrive purging Mossad cells and account for the targets and strength of strike to expect next time, they aren't Hezbollah, so they couldn't assume they would get the same form of opening attack.

    Israel didn't destroy, but they did disable the ability to use missile launchers in certain regions, the reason the missile barrages were limited to around 20 at a time towards the middle-end was because Iran had to resort to Guerilla tactics, using smaller launch forces to strike then moving them back to safety before Israel could take them out. The capacity wasn't destroyed, but it couldn't be used to its full extent, because using it would open it up to getting destroyed.

    How can you say there was clearly no punishment for Israel when we were seeing bombs dropped on Tel-Aviv, Trading ports, and military targets, and now the people realizing they can be hit back and they didn't even get what they wanted. Israel wants us/their citizens to think there was no punishment and they achieved all their goals, but the truth is blatant.

    Israel wasn't running perfect defense and avoiding Iranian hits, then just when their defense was weak a ceasefire happened. The opposite if anything, Israel kept taking hits and only when the US showed willingness to be involved directly militarily to save them did Iran agree to ceasefire.

    Obviously Iran didn't end the Israeli regime, but they also withstood the Israeli aggression aimed at ending their regime.

    I'm seeing a lot of defeatism about what should be a celebratory event for those who oppose the Israeli regime. We could build off of this moment.

  • It's not the actual image itself that stops you.

    Just like advertisements aren't designed to make you run out to buy a burger right now.

    It's the cultural/long term education.

    Of course rising prices also helps, it's harder to justify the more expensive it is.

  • Iran was shocked by a massive opening blow in the middle of negotiations which allowed Israel to disable many launcher sites and take air superiority in those regions preventing Iran from accessing their full capacity.

    Regardless of this, Israel still just couldn't handle sustained pressure from Irans remaining weapons.

    Israel started the war with the goal of regime change and destroying Irans nuclear capabilities, they did neither.

    If the war starts back, Iran will still have the capacity to overwhelm Israeli defense and Israel will have to rely on another surprise attack, which is much less likely now that Iran has seen their strategy for doing such.

    It's in no way an L for Iran, much less a massive one.

  • Except this time the empire is so far gone that Tulsi is even questioning/dismissing the idea of Iran having/getting nukes and it doesn't matter.

    We no longer need to manufacture consent, we just do things.

  • Everytime someone tried to negotiate with Israel/the US they are killed/attacked. From Palestinian negotiators to Iran.

    Insisting on "peaceful resolution" is akin to Ghandis 'pacifist' insistence that "Jews should have thrown themselves in the sea" during the Holocaust

  • The constant "there's a dang Cheeto in the white house!" comes with the implication that anyone who wasn't "the Cheeto" would be meaningfully different in the role.

    Particularly in 2016 - 2020 the implication was Hillary, now it's Harris, as that's who he ran against.

    Edit: It's a focus on the individual in the role rather than the system itself, despite vast evidence that the problems are long term and systemic. Whether the intention or not, it's undeniably a liberal defense of the broader system itself.

  • Thats why they aren't just comparing each state just to the US average but to other countries.

    There are 35/50 states on the graph, with 34 of them above the 2nd highest country (el Salvador).

    This shows that even the US states that are lower than average are still higher than other countries.

  • It is 2025. Soviet missiles are no longer the most advanced technology and it's not impossible to imagine that Iran has developed technology better than that of a country that hasn't existed for 25 years.

    There is much evidence supporting Iran as having missiles capable of maneuvering post launch.

  • So true! Germany declared war on the entire world and brought destruction to Europe while carrying out a genocide! Israel only declared war on the entire middle East and destroys them while carrying out a genocide!

    You've traded in German supremacy for European supremacy...the same thing your government did, hence why they support European occupation and genocide of the middle East.

  • You are severely downplaying what happens in Gaza and to Palestinians.

    "No you can't compare two ethnic supremacists, expansionist, genocidal regimes! One committed their genocide against Europeans and the other in the middle East!"
