like we see in Gaza.
Putrid bastard can't even own his own genocide. It's what You're, or We're meaning Israel, is doing to Gaza.
The worst kind of coward, a bloodthirsty one.
Threatening violence against civilians in the pursuit of political aims, huh? If only we had a word for that.
Disgusting.
Can someone explain to me how this is going to help get the hostages back? I was told this was about hostages.
No, this war is about Total Victory, whatever that is.
Netanyahu and his cronies don't care about the hostages. They care about retaining their power. He knows he's done for once this war ends. He's hated both by the world and his own citizens.
I just can't see why anyone would hate him/Isreal. They cleared so much space for schools and hospitals by destroying old, run down schools and hospitals. I mean such hazardous work being done for free! Such a generous man, and all that military protection. How can you not love this regime!?!
It's just plain old antisemitism. No need to dig any deeper than that.
Hey, I said no digging!
Maybe he should focus on maintaining peace if he doesn't want his own country to turn into bloody ashes
I don’t think he wants peace at all. I think if there’s peace, he will lose his position as PM and lose its power with it.
He would be fine with a full out war because he knows US will help him.
He will also go to jail for corruption if he loses his position.
He was about to lose power before 10/7...
And has been refusing to allow elections because of the genocides he won't stop committing ever since.
Yeah Iran's Axis of Resistance will destroy Israel any day now... any day now... soon... someday?
Iran's bullshit Axis of Resistance is like a scrawny guy that constantly gets his shit destroyed by someone that's simply stronger faster and more skilled at fighting than he is . Everyone tells him to throw in the towel, but still just keeps on wanting to fight. And keeps getting his asses kicked.
It would be laughable if it weren't for the fact that these assholes embed themselves in the civilian population and get a lot of people killed besides themselves.
The Axis of Resistance has been a complete failure for Iran. Hamas is hiding in their holes in the ground, Hezbollah had their entire leadership wiped out in two weeks. If the Houthis were smart (they aren't) they'd stop their attacks on shipping and hope everyone forgets their part in all of this. Iran itself hasn't shown much capability in attacking Israel with their rockets. The only thing they've achieved is to make people feel sorry for them.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
