I'll give Iran all of that; still doesn't make it a smart move. This is just a sad attempt at trying to distract the world from the fact that it was largely ineffective and mainly just served to give Netanyahu an excuse to escalate this conflict even further, and in Iran's direction. I'm sure Iran's nuclear scientists and engineers are all in agreement that this was "totally worth it!"

I don't know if any active aggressions is really legal, or rational for that matter, but considering all the provocation Israel's given I can't say it wasn't legitimate.

Considering all the provocation, I can't say Israel might not be illegitimate. Did that offend you or scratch the wrong nerve? Maybe violence is never the right answer, but simpy the easier or even only one.

Sorry it had to be you, I'm probably looking for a fight right now. World's been on my nerve.

It’s the kind of conflict where the answer to the question "who started it?" entirely depends on how far back you begin looking.

That's a fair assessment

You wanna have a cup of tea and vent for awhile?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 18 hours ago

I'll probably have some tea, thanks :) Feel better now that I've slept

People don't care about your opinion as much as you think they do.
