Don’t forget China. They have it perfected. You probably heard of the great firewall of China; they even have their social credit score system tied into it.

Trump has often ended messages with the phrase Thank you for your attention to this matter since being re elected. It’s nothing new.
Well, I have this Person indwelling me who promised HE would lead me to all truth, not N.T. Wright. N.T. might be brilliant but I’m going to go ahead and read what’s in the mind of Christ, The Bible and via prayer, trust that the Holy Spirit wasn’t kidding and make it applicable in my life for some of tbat Galatians 5:22-23 stuff, all nine pieces. I’d suggest studying the Bible. You’ll understand when you do. God promised.
I have two seminary graduate degrees. I have spent my life studying the Bible. I don’t know everything and I’ll acknowledge I am wrong on stuff. Figuring out which stuff I’m wrong on is harder :).
I have nearly written through N.T. Wright’s first 3 books on Christian Origins. The beginning of JVG can be found here.
That might be true for the 5 books of Moses, but the Old Testament contains many more books that were written during 2 periods when there was a nation state from about 1050 to 857 BC. The original books may have been written in their final form during this period too. I’m not sure if this matters, but it is historically accurate. There was another period of Jewish rule from 140-37 BC.

Yes. Agreed.
I remember seeing on YouTube a video with Biden in it but there was a slit around his throat which makes people conclude that was not Biden but someone wearing a mask imposting as him.
So much has changed between Trump being elected and he seems like a totally different person. Do you think this could be a clone or an imposter?
Where is Melanie, Trump’s wife?

Perhaps what you don’t see is more instructive. If Iran sends 100 missiles towards Israel and you see 3 or 4 or 5 impacts in Tel Aviv or Haifa, maybe the others are either being destroyed by the Patriot or THAAD or Arrow anti-missile systems.
I can’t say that the missile defense is working or not. I’m of the thought that the missile defense is working on the eastern side of Israel or over Jordan.
You see the theatrics. The few missiles that make it to their ‘target’ and the last second attempts to stop them.
I believe that only a few missiles get through and actually cause this damage. You can imagine it is infinitely more complex to stop a missile with another missile but that’s working.
And every day, fewer and fewer missiles are being fired from Iran, few launchers, few missiles in the stock pile and no more production capability. The Israelis say that around 40% of the launchers have been destroyed already and with the air superiority/supremecy and tankers in the sky, the loitering planes and slow flying long durations drones are looking for launchers all the time.
The last days of the Islamic Republic are coming. The people of Iran will soon be free.
The way I see this is that the Western military Technology has proven so far superior to what the Iranians (and the Russians&Chinese) have to offer. This portends to hopefully future peace and for the military manufacturers, much in future sales.

The Mama seal is running out of ‘leaders’ and running out of launchers and running out of missiles and have no missile capacity left.
The IRGC leadership is decimated. A new IRGC head appears and gets dispatched to the Virgins within days or even hours. There are likely so many moles inside the IRGC, no one knows anything. The leadership is decapitated.
Launchers, 40% have been destroyed already. They are being searched for as job #1 now.
Missiles are running in short supply. The storage depots are getting hit. There is no capacity to produce new missiles and for that matter drones and drone components. This last point will really affect those pesky Russians who wont be able to complete their drones for their war.
And this Mama Seal, she has no friends. Not Hamas, not Hezbollah, not the Houtis or the Shia Militias all of which she armed and supported over decades. And for those haters here, there is basically silence from Russia and China and Pakistan. The Regime basically has not allies anymore.
Three more Iranian government planes flew to Oman today probably taking families and IRGC members to permanent Exile.
The last days of this Islamic Republic are upon us.
Mama seal has no teeth anymore. Sorry to burst your bubble.

That is the Western view/propaganda of things but don’t forget that Iran has Russia and China as allies and they can supply Iran with weapons. Just to show the other side of the argument, Journalist Pepe Escobar who has his contacts in Euroasia is saying just the opposite. That Iran has plenty of weapons left at its disposal and that Israel is getting hit hard and that Israel is not allowing that information to leak to the outside media. Also Israel is not letting its people leave who want to get out of harms way. If Israel was not taking the damage from Iran, then there should be NO reason why Israeli’s would want to leave the country. But that is the spin the Western press loves to put out. It’s pretty similar to the warmongers in Trump’s Cabinet such as Keith Kellogg who tells him that Ukraine is winning and Russia is losing and down on manpower. We know from independent journalists that Ukraine is losing badly and Russia is taking its time to finish the job.
The problem for western propaganda is that China gets a lot of its oil from Iran. Neither Russia nor China wants to see Iran overrun by the West because they know they will be next on the list. As London based Alexander Mercouris has mentioned, that he suspects that both Russia and China can and are probably supplying Iran with weapons. Which could include Nukes and the wildcard here is North Korea who no longer trust Washington and have rejected Trump’s advances to meet 4 times. Could they provide Iran with Nukes? Don’t be too surprised if that happens. Mercouris has also mentioned that Iran has replaced those leaders who have been killed and they are now operating back to normal.

Fresh round. You can decide if this is signifcant damage or not.
It looks legit. Wait for Hasbara and Indian bots to deny this strike.
Now it all makes sense. Thanks for the disclosure.

Nobody can make long lasting peace with Muslims. As a group, they are at war with their neighbors, always and forever. Ever hear the phrase “bloody borders of Islam?”
But the Jews have it worse - they are singled out for hate in the Koran itself. There is NOTHING they can do to “get along” with their Muslim neighbors.

Reading the comments leaves me with the feeling that few, if any, commentators have actually lived and worked in a foreign country. Each country has a different culture. So, what is culture? How does culture influence one’s outlook, one’s values, ones politics? For example, why is the European Union in such disarray? How is a Spanish soldier going to communicate with a Polish soldier in the defense of Europe? What goal would both have in common, regardless of language issues. After the egregious actions against Trump in his first term, followed by equally unethical, egregious actions by the likes of the FBI against Trump after he left office, our miserable education system, a people who do not care enough to read the US Constitution, and are we even a “people”… you know, a people with a common language, common values, etc. As in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, etc. it is unfortunately true that Iran may be the next “nation building” disaster. What is going to happen there if the US takes it upon itself to destroy their system of governance. My point is that we are once again approaching war with no understanding, no tools to fix it afterwards, no funds to even cover what is broken in our own country. As a MAGA supporter, I see nothing but bad coming out of this… whatever it will be.

Anyone else here old enough to remember when Iranian students stormed the US embassy in 1979 and took a bunch of hostages?
No one else here seems to remember that Iran has carried out any actions of aggression - ever.
If you guys don’t think Iran has been subsidizing Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis, please say so, and better yet, provide evidence that it has not done so.
I’m not saying I’m sure having the US bomb Iran is a good idea, but I think there’s a good chance Iran was very close to developing nuclear weapons. And if the leaders decide to bomb them, then I’ll accept their decision.
This is a country that regularly chants “death to America” in parliament - it’s not peaceful. And Chris - Maybe Teheran has some beautiful parts - but ask your wife if she likes the almost nonexistent rights women have. They don’t necessarily get to choose who they marry, and they don’t get to leave an abusive spouse. Yeah, and Islam has polygamy. That pretty much sums it up right there.

Films such as Top Gunn Maverick have been lionising/normalising illegal incursions into sovereign states, all in the « greater cause of good ».

I have to admit, that 2015 video of Netenyahu is chilling. When he said to Congress, “I know that no matter which side of the aisle you stand on, you stand for Israel” my first thought was, 'this bastard knows they’re all bribed or blackmailed!"
He’s had a hard on for Iran for a long time.
I don’t blame the Israeli people, but I do blame the Israeli government - same for my own country. The little people have no agency. At. All. To make any kind of policy changes, and we’re soooooo easily manipulated. All we can do is take care of our own business: our own health, our finances, our relationships, our spiritual lives, and pray we’re on the right course.
