I strongly recommend you to listen to Ilan Pappe. He describes well how Israels society has deep internal rifts as the narrative of Zionism ultimately failed to build a cohesive society.
So ultimately Israel needs the eternal war for two main reasons:
- To keep the support by its western lapdogs up, by presenting itself as the eternal victim under war.
- To keep the internal pressure contained by the necessity to hold together because of war.
See for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9rr3j7vZGo
Special systems = indiscriminate bombing of residential building at night to maximize civilians murdered
Iraq wasn't an "intelligence failure". There was tampered "evidence", singular sources blown out of proportion instead of their veracity challenged and wild computer animations to drive the point home with the public.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegations_of_Iraqi_mobile_weapons_laboratories
They knew they were lying, just that today it is even more brazen. The US needed to produce images of "strength" after 9/11 so it was clear they will invade someone. They didn't invade their allies in Saudi Arabia despite most of the perpetrators being Saudi nationals. It was clear to seasoned politicians that this is a sham aimed at producing the right images and seize the opportunity to reshape the region.
I don't think so. People of palestine action have faced prison sentences for nonviolent crimes. And they have been active well before Russias fullscale invasion of Ukraine.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palestine_Action
Palestine Action was established on 30 July 2020 when activists broke into and spray-painted the interior of Elbit Systems' UK headquarters in London.[2] The organisation's co-founders are Huda Ammori, whose father is Palestinian, and Richard Barnard, a long-term left-wing activist.
Filton 18
An initial ten people were raided and arrested by counter-terror forces under the Terrorism Act on 19 November 2024 in relation to an August action against the Elbit Systems HQ in Bristol,[47] in addition to those previously arrested on the scene who were charged for non-terror related crimes.[48][49] In total, 18 activists were held in custody, dubbed the Filton 18.[50][51] Tom Southerden of Amnesty International said the terrorism powers were misused to circumvent normal legal protections, resulting in excessively long pre-charge detention.[52] Documents released under Freedom of Information suggest that the UK government shared contact details of counter-terrorism police and prosecutors with the Israeli embassy during the investigation into the incident.[53]
https://palestineaction.org/prison-sentences/
Two people who took direct action to dismantle and occupy a weapons company, were sentenced to prison after pleading guilty to charges of criminal damage. A third, who had taken part in the action was acquitted at Chester Crown Court. Out of the two imprisoned, Mike Lynch White, a scientist, was sentenced to 27 months. The other, was sentenced to 16 months. Usually, approximately half of a custodial sentence is served in prison.
This would be a ridiculously ineffective way to waste operatives. Also if there was any plausible links to Russia, there is a strong reason to assume that something would have come up in the "counter-terror" investigations and heavily placated by the British and Israeli government to delegitimize the group.
If we look at actual Russian sabotage we see exploding parcels, drones around military sites, arson attacks...
Nonwithstanding, the fact that two people on an E-Scooter could break into an airforce base, damage planes there and leave undetected will surely be followed closely by Russia and is a huge security failure for the RAF. If people can drive in a fire extinguisher full of paint, Russian operatives could drive in a bunch of explosives and destroy all the planes on the tarmac.
Production license.
Russia got the plans how to build the drones from Iran and pays a certain license fee for every drone they build in Russia.

Production of weapons under licensing deals is quite common in the arms industry, especially as it helps to circumvent national export restrictions. For instance the second most common rifle in the West Asia region (after Kalashnikov variants) is the German Heckler & Koch G3 as millions of units were produced by various countries in the region under licensing deals.
Regarding the involvement of the UK in Intelligence flights for Israels attacks, but also for facilitating US arms deliveries i can highly recommend the investigative work of declassifieduk. The UK while providing less military aid than the US or Germany in the shape of arms deliveries, is extensively involved in Israels attacks through logistical and intelligence support.

I don't think that for Russia an US invasion of Iran would be bad. Russia builds most of the drones themselves on a license now. As Israel is already bombing Iran, Iran won't be able to deliver a lot to Russia for quite some time.
Meanwhile if the US and its EU allies get bogged down in Iraq 2.0 for the next twenty years, Russia will be able to deal with Ukraine much easier, while China can increase its presence in South Asia. Furthermore a full blown war with Iran will likely block the strait of Hormuz, skyrocket the Oil and Gas prices and bankroll Russia as the EU will either directly come crawling back for Russian Oil and Gas or will scale down their efforts to limit sanction circumvention through India, Turkiye, Azerbaijan and others.
If the West commits to "regime change" in Iran, they will likely sacrifice Ukraine to Russia.

In a better world the driver wouldn't be exploited in a gig economy and have little incentive to risk criminal charges for a fucking laptop.
You are completely running past socioeconomic factors to be the main driver of small scale crime.
That a lot of people have a problem with drinking and drug abuse and we have a toxic drinking culture doesn't make it a good idea to join in on it.
Many women are victims to sexual violence and domestic violence during their life. While these also happen without alcohol or other drugs, these increase the chance of violence significantly.
If you are serious about the other person, stay sober.
It is only anecdotically but none of the people i know had a club/bar/festival relationship survive. And when they ended, they ended with a lot of drama. One couple i knew briefly that went to parties together all thf time later accused each other of being violent.
Meanwhile the people that met through shared hobbies and friends do quite well, or managed to end their relationships in a respectful manner when things didnt work out.
But i guess not doings drugs and warning of their detriment means i am being "terminally online". After all, all the cool kids do drugs. And the older they get while doing that, the cooler they get...
My experience is that such relationships usually end badly and quickly. Also sleeping around is not curing being an "incel". It is just masking the insecurity, lack of maturity and lack of responsible behavior.
However if you meet at a bar and decide to meet for a date later, having alcohol or drugs involved in that date also is a huge red flag. That means the person doing drugs has issues with their emotional regulation. Also especially for women doing drugs with some relatively unknown men is increasing the risk of being date-raped.
If you aren't a creep, don't do creepy shit. Involving alcohol and other drugs definitely is worse for everyone involved than being sober.
If you cant do the right thing in such a situation you are simply unfit to drive and should have your license revoked.
Did you even read what it wrote? Nowhere do i say that.
If you only strike conversations with people at a party with the intent of getting into their pants, you will not be invited to many parties. If you hold a conversation and then start to like each other, asking for a date is something different.
Well, Israel and its allies provided a lot of statements that justify attacks on hospitals.
As the BBC reported, there is military and intelligence sites nearby, which is consistent with Irans claim of having targeted legitimate military targets. I guess the Israelis should be condemned here for using their hospitals as human shields, like they have accused their targets of, usually falsely.
I hope that as little Civilians as possible get hurt, however the attacking nation crying wolf about collateral damage, after butchering Civilians in the tens of thousands during the past years and well before that too, cannot help but raise an eyebrow. This comes especially as many people in the Israel civilian population have cheered on massacre against Civilians.
You will end up with leaders that will not meet each other or leave their countries. You will end up with leaders eternally paranoid that at any moment they could be assassinated by a foreign power.
This will be a guarantee for much more wars, killing many more people than we already have.
The Nazis used the promise of food to get Jews in Warsaw and other ghettos onto the trains to the death camps without much resistance.
Going house to house to kill people is dangerous. Drawing them out in the open and shooting at them with tanks is easy.
The UN as an institution is distinct from its member states. Unfortunately most member states got a hard on for crimes against humanity again.
That doesn't make sense. Villagers know perfectly well how to make cheese and the cow is the most expensive part of the process. You add some acid to make the curd, add your starter culture from the sheep stomach, and have that rest for some time in a cool and dark space. After a while start salting it, if you have salt available.
Well in this case they don't want people to accurately report on Israeli sites being hit.
While i understand that in the context of military sites, this should not be relevant in the context of civilian sites. Unless Israel is using its civilian sites as human shields for its military...
Attacking Civilians and killing yourself are haram.
Also note how they guy initially planned to target Shia muslims.
Fuck Wahhabis, Salafis and their toxic influence on Islam while being in bed with the US and other imperialists.
