Israel / Iran - updates, no politics

I'm sure that he'll call it a "witch hunt" when someone starts an investigation into insider trading.

I'd be curious to see how many of his cronies make a fortune during this time.

"Hard to prove" seems to be the way they'll get out of it, though any kind of federal investigation would subpoena communications and find the evidence pretty easily you would imagine if they were inclined to do so.

Yeah two thousand years of shared ethical, historical, and theological foundations shattered because of the idiotic actions of one soldier.

Bollocks, Judaism and Islam have the same feelings towards Christianity, and youre being incredibly naive to think otherwise.

I follow a Lebanese Christian and from his own experiences he says there is liitle to distinquish between the two.

No, you're wrong -it was a daft hyperbolic comment and a few anecdotal opinions does not change the fact our shared ethical, historical, and theological values are the backbone of Western civilisation and have been for centuries.

‘Navy SEALs were airdropped into the mountainous region to find and extract the soldier’.

Hmmmmm maybe not. But I await your response because I know….we all know you hate being wrong. But il indulge your fantasy and hang around.

You said the paras where training at battalion level, first time for many years, implied we were going to send a force.

I see the us are sending their airborne soldiers to Iran, and I see the glorious 3 para have just carried out a full battalion practice jump (1st in over 20 years). It’s almost as though they were listening to me. A proper 800m get in there and blitz it jump. Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that.

How many of our lads were dropped?

Like I said weeks ago, wont be a mass airdrop into Iran, its suicide.

As much as you think its the right thing to do, its never going to happen, we wont send anyone.

With regards the US rescue mission, that seems to have been a bit of a cluster, if you read between the lines.

There you go, thinking I’m implying stuff…..reading between lines. You suffer from narcissism pal. You talk down to people to protect your fragile ego a lot. You said in your last post I was wrong about troops being parachuted in. I’ve given you an example of troops being parachuted in and rather than say I was right…ish you replied with absolute codswallop. As per usual. Moving goal posts to British troops and saying the USA ones that got parachuted in messed up (reading between the lines).

The uk has 3,000 troops including 16th airborne brigade and Royal Marines at the ready. Put that into context, why paras and marines? Why not tankies and cavalry?
You do realise that reading between the lines to make yourself look right isn’t good for you don’t you? It’s not healthy.

Just pointing out from the start you wanted us to drop troops into Iran, you replied to me out the blue weeks later implying we were training to go in.
Why do that if you were not implying something?

I said then wait and see, well we have waited and seen.

You do seem very keen for us to throw away lives mind.

We wont and should not get involved, pretty happy with that stance myself like.

But its been weeks now and still waiting for your wanted air drop suicide mission, I am telling you now, it wont happen.

Must have hit a nerve as your back to the name calling, as I said weeks ago, lets wait and see, but so far we have a sensible leader who is keeping our troops well away from it. No need for us to get involved, if I am wrong and we do drop in to the middle of Iran, I will come on here and admit you were right, wonder if you can admit you were wrong?

Anyway you still supporting Trump and his actions, or have you seen sense yet, you were very pro Trump because of his actions iirc?

Oops just noticed this is on the news thread and not the one on the politics forum.

Yep, no such thing as Judeo Christian values or whatever those on the pay roll tell you. Non Jews in the west are seen as goys and are just meat fodder for their war.

Ehud Olmert is an Israeli politician and lawyer who served as the prime minister of Israel from 2006 to 2009.

Israel’s failure to prosecute settlers who attacked Palestinians in the West Bank led to the country’s former prime minister, Ehud Olmert, calling for the international criminal court to intervene to save Palestinians from “Jewish terrorists”, in an interview with the Guardian.
The report on sexualised violence as a tool of forced displacement drew on 83 interviews with Palestinian communities across the occupied West Bank, including those facing settler violence and movement restrictions.
Participants included people at risk, those already forced to flee their homes, women, youth activists and community leaders. The findings are not meant to be a statistically representative sample of the West Bank.
The Israel Defense Forces did not respond to questions about allegations of sexual abuse by soldiers.

Now Trump has decided to extend the ceasefire which ends tomorrow

I didn’t say it would mate. I said it should have. And I never said they were training for it either. They did a battalion jump in preparation incase it’s needed. That’s why you train. Unless you think the British army practice for conflicts we won’t have. And I’m keen on lives being lost? Ive not said that either. What I’m keen on is swift action and not years and years of half arsed attempts of talks, scraps, hundreds of millions of pounds being spent and terror attacks on our own soil just to end up in exactly the same position or worse off while apologists blame everyone but the people carrying it out. You are reading between the lines again aren’t you?

There's a reason that a ground invasion hasn't already happened over the last 40 years...

Nope. Risk v Reward. Iran is not Afghanistan or Iraq and the senior military advisers know this, which is why Trump and Hegseth are getting rid of them all.

This video is Trump in the 80s. There is no doubt that he still thinks like this. But the key question is "how". He couldn't answer it then and he can't answer it now. Any ground invasion by USA on Iran would be a bloodbath for US troops. It has been a strategic geo-political goal for the USA to achieve regime change in Iran since the Islamic revolution. They have opted for economic sanctions and misinformation campaigns by Farsi language satellite channels in the hope of creating enough destabilisation to cause a coup or revolution. It is is only because this has failed, that we are seeing the next stage of direct conflict.

The direct conflict in it's current form is also failing, so the next natural steps are either a ground invasion, use of nuclear weapons or a withdrawal.
