The page also says Iranian attack failed because the damage wasn't significant. Like, they were talking on CNN about Iran warning everyone beforehand and not sending everything at once to limit damage.

    I mean fair enough, I'd probably be a bit of an anxious wreck if I lived in israel, poor petals, blooming all alone in that desert, damn, must be tough.

    also lol, some IDF wanker talking about how but one little girl was hurt, and if you read into it, they were targeting... oh right, military infrastructure! wow!!

      Wasn't that one little girl a Jordanian who wouldn't even have been hurt if her traitorous government hadn't decided to help the Zionist entity intercept the attack?

      Zionists are using little girls as human shields. Really fucked up of them to put their military installations so close to civilians.

    Anybody else remember the beginning of the SMO in Ukraine where the USA talking heads were like, "Russia hasn't blasted every city off the map and caused untold civilian causalities in the first weeks of the war... so Russia is gong to lose any minute now..."?

      Libs got REALLY mad when you contrasted how Russia was conducting itself in the invasion to how Israel is.

        Oh man, compare Bakhmut (a battle with tens of thousands of soldiers fought over ten months) to Fallujah (a battle with thousands of soldiers fought over six weeks) - 200 civilians versus 800. Obviously there's no good amount of collateral damage but the way America and its proxies conduct their wars is clearly more destructive than the norm for the rest of the world.

        Liberals were insisting that the Wagner Group was doing a straight up Nazi Cosplay as they Blitzkregged towards Poland. But then also Ukraine's Ghost of Kiev had single-handedly shot down half the Russian air force.

        Azov were freedom fighters rescuing all the beautiful blonde-haired blue eyed babies. Russia was in the midst of a pogrom against the Uber-volk. Half the Russian population had just been killed in an ill-conceived human wave attack against stout Ukrainian defenses. Then we got an earful about how the Spring Offensive would end in Moscow.

        I think the craziest part of the war was when Prigozhin tried his coup and the Ukrainian front lines did not move. Like, if there was ever a fucking moment for western forces to reclaim territory, it was when Moscow was being evaluated and half of Wagner Group was racing towards the capital. But they just sat on their thumbs in confused shock, waiting for the next shoe to drop. This was the full extent of what Germany, France, the UK, and the US could bring to bare against Russia. Stunned silence as half of Putin's active duty military turn coat.

        What a fucking clown parade.

    Jordan reported some shrapnel falling on its territory, causing no significant damage or injuries.[42][43] In Israel, one child, a 7-year old Israeli Bedouin girl, was struck and injured by part of a missile.[27] Thirty-one other people suffered either minor injuries while rushing to protected areas or were treated for anxiety.[28] The next day, Iran's envoy to the United Nations said that the attacks "can be deemed concluded".[53]

    so 1 person stubbed their toe on their way to hide, and 30 just needed a hug?

      Yeah, but they are Israelis, that mean tye IDF is allowed to kill at least 100 Palestine children and other 3000 Palestine civilians. That's just the IDF maths.

      So the vast majority of Iran's bombardment were intercepted or hit their non civilian targets...

      Better than bombing a hospital and retroactively claiming it was a military stronghold...

    According to westerners, it's not true bombing when it don't kill at least few dozens civilians, hit at least one school or hospital and don't even doubletap rescuers, damn amateurs.

    Yeah this sounds like Iran was just sending them a warning.

    Unfortunately you know how the west deals with that kind of thing "YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!"

    You know, this makes me think, would they have told us if one of those hypersonic missiles hit a parked F-35? They claim that the damage to the air bases that were hit was "minimal" but I'm not so sure I believe that.

      NPR lead in with the story by claiming "Iran's bombs killed a 7-year-old child". Not so much as a whisper of where they actually landed, before the announcer proudly declared 98% of the rockets were deflected by air defenses thanks to Rishi Sunak's UK Air Force.

      These news stories are migrating from "puzzle pieces I have to assemble into something resembling the truth" to "pure shadows-on-the-wall manufactured gibberish". Just like with the air base bombing in Jordan, I'm at an absolute loss as to what's actually happening. Its just headline gore and a drum beat to war that's practically deafening.
