That OR political Israel aka USA. We, many of us, consider ourselves honorary Israelites if not the real thing. Israel has a history of this behavior especially when there is a promised land idea at stake.
The point here Western media is silent. "Deliberately and knowingly, 160 or more children young girls whose funerals took place today were killed. And no one not a single state department, not a single foreign office, not the Elysee Palace… none of the UK, US, French or German government bodies none of them has expressed a word of regret or asked for forgiveness on their knees," - Maria Zakharova told reporters two days ago
Grok confirms: "Yes, reports from UN News, Al Jazeera, Guardian, France 24 & others confirm: on Feb 28, a missile struck the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls' elementary school in Minab, Iran, during US-Israeli strikes. Death toll now ~165 (mostly children/staff), per Iranian officials & Red Crescent. Iran blames US/Israel. US says investigating civilian harm reports, "would not deliberately target a school." Israel says not aware of strike there. Geolocated footage verified by AFP/NYT. Tragic amid the conflict."
Iran thinks it has it bad today, give it some time.
By the close of the Indian Wars in the late 19th century, fewer than 238,000 Indigenous people remained, a sharp decline from the estimated 5 million to 15 million living in North America when Columbus arrived in 1492.
Iran thinks it has it bad today, give it some time
Time for what? I don't think you understand what's going on here. If the objective was to liberate Iran, then Trump lost the war in Iran the first day of bombing. And Iran won the war through strategy. Khamenei was in his house surrounded by his martyred comrades, who also knew they would die but they understood that there was purpose in their death, because through it they would attain martyrdom. The end strategy matrix means that Iran must accomplish- 4 goals:
first thing it must do is unite the population. The assassination of Khamenei and leadership, plus the killings of 167 schoolgirls. Iran did that on day 1.
second thing is build alliances. Iran started this a long time ago with entry into BRICS, and military alliances with Russia, China, and others.
third thing is win global opinion. Iran is winning this with each passing day. Just look it started with Spain. More and more people all over the world are saying Iran was not a threat to USA. Yesterday the Pentagon confirmed it.
and the fourth is weaken the enemy. Iran is doing that, although Iran is suffering major losses as well. US military admits the Iran strike consumed more long-range munitions than 4 years of Ukraine. Trump is considering moving air defense systems stationed in Korea to Middle East. All the Gulf states are desperate. Bahrain and UAE will run out of missiles in 3 to 4 days.
True, the Iranian people are now in the streets, but they are not to protest the government. Instead, they are chanting in the name of the martyr Khamenei. You don't know, or understand who Khamenei was. It's like killing the Pope for the world to see and expect the Catholics all over the world to kiss the feet of the ones who did the assassination. Killing Khamenei was a very big mistake, IMO. This was a trap set by the Iranians and the ignorant Americans fell for it.
The people of Iran are today defending the Islamic Republic, prepared to attain martyrdom for their men and women alike. They are defending not only their land, their culture, and their history, but the Islamic Republic of Iran itself, and their creed. They don't care how many die defending all this, they are not afraid of death. Why is this so hard for Westerners to understand? they lost the war in Afghanistan, and lost Iraq, and still don't learn this very simple thing.
It was a brilliant strategy by the Iranians to have their entire leadership blown up all at once
I didn't think you would understand, and I was right. You didn't. Let me explain it slowly for you this time. Khamenei was 86 years old and he chose to die. He could have gone to Moscow, but instead he chose to stay in Tehran and die for his people. But not only that, but he died along many of his relatives. Another thing you need to understand Khamenei had prostrate cancer, and not long to live. His entire family agreed to martyrdom. He died along with his daughter, his son-in-law, his grandchildren. So the entire family died in this assault. That's why they stayed in their house, they knew the attack was coming. It wasn't really a surprise to anyone.
So what you need to understand first about the war is that even though the Americans and Israelis claimed great success in decapitating the leadership of the Iranians, from the Iranian perspective this is a martyrdom. In the Shia faith, the core value, the force that binds everyone together and gives them purpose and meaning in life, that galvanizes them into action is the idea of martyrdom, which forces jihad. You sacrifice yourself for your religion, sacrifice yourself for the common good. So think of the death of Khamenei as a sacrifice, a self-sacrifice in order to motivate their radiance in this war.
Yeah, the Iranians insisted the Israelis purposefully attacked the school to kill the school children. Why would the Israelis do that? But then these few years what we've seen, what they've done in Gaza, in Palestine to the Palestinians and it's pretty consistent with what the Israelis have been doing.
Sounds exactly like something Israelis would do on purpose.

Hard to tell what's satire or not.
But anyway, if they had been good instead of evil then they might not be hated by everyone.
Wow. The largest mass killings of schoolgirls in history? you would think this was all over the news.
Nah. The biggest one ever was probably what happened to the ethnic Russians in the bolshevik revolution

Yes. We're still in agreement that erasing the entire family tree all at once has been a blessing for the Iranian people.
We all know why they targeted a school.
Yeah, the Iranians insisted the Israelis purposefully attacked the school to kill the school children. Why would the Israelis do that? But then these few years what we've seen, what they've done in Gaza, in Palestine to the Palestinians and it's pretty consistent with what the Israelis have been doing.
It hasn't escaped mainstream news.
Although NYT is casting doubt - "Iranian State Media Says..."
NYT is Israeli state media, so I'm less inclined to believe their spin.
