Wichtiges Update nach RAF-Stützpunkt von Drohne angegriffen – „Es war nicht der Iran“

Hezbollah for those in doubt.

Makes sense, and pulls into question the motives of the right wing commentators in this country baying for war.

We’ve now had a few iterations of „staying out of it“, which are really just „gradually getting into it.“ Really „staying out of it“ would be doing what Spain, honorably, is doing. But nice to see the pretense ending that we’re not just going to do whatever Trump, and by extension, Israel wants.

could have an out here especially of its linked to Hezbollah.

Turn to Israel and say if you stop striking southern Lebanon and well support Lebanon disarming Hezbollah.

Gets the missile risk off israels northern border, easing tensions between them, helps push peace and stability within lebanon to help them rebuild.

All the “top 1% commenters” coming out begging for it to have been an Israeli drone tonight. Curious!

People saying that the attack wouldn’t have happened if we didn’t support the US just casually, and purposely, leave out that the attack happened even though we didn’t actually support the US at the cost of our diplomatic relations with the US

I think the Iranian regime might collapse before some people finally accept that the likes of Iran don’t remotely care whether we’re involved or not or whether you support them or not, they’ve by their own admission wanted to kill us ever since 1948 as they blame us for Israel existing

So we’re at a point here where you can support our forces protecting the UK and our allies from Iranian attacks while staying out of the war against Iran itself or you are advocating our troops do nothing to stop Iran’s attacks and allow British citizens to die just so you can tell the widows and orphans that their loves ones died so you can pretend you have a good conscience

I’ve been ignoring Reddit coverage of this for a few days because the trend of everyone pretending to be an expert on foreign affairs is so egregious – and I especially can’t tolerate it when it’s on a topic that I am actually knowledgeable about. I get that people don’t like/trust Israel or our government and that false flags have happened in the past, but the idea that the US/Israel struck Akrotiri is utterly absurd. Iran’s grand strategy has always involved using its proxies to lash out whenever it is attacked by the US, it is a key pillar of their deterrence. The evaluation that this was likely Hezbollah is almost certainly accurate.

Who cares who’s drone it is. Let Israel fight their own wars. They don’t treat us like allies.
