There is already a war. If u fire rockets. Do you think it's childs play

[sywilliamson]

The "Paris of the Middle East" now a mullah stronghold. Heartbreaking.

[DKisOk]

UN condemns Israel for targeting the Terrorists directly, but does not condemn the terrorist for targeting children playing soccer???

[netsiteing]

Iran is too busy checking all their walkie talkies 😂

[someonesomewhere]

Hezibolah has fired more than 8000 missiles into Israel, and no one has a problem with that but accuses Israel in its attempts to defend itself. So pathetic!

[chicharino]

Iran doesn't have the balls to intervene.

[AwoChukwu]

Iran are using them as a sacrifices lamb. Knowing that Israel will distroyed them in a moment.

[pberPSR]

[ralphpimentel]

[David]

I remember a local comedy movie in the 90's, the first man urged the second man to challenge the stranger to a fight, he said, I'm gonna help you by the way just start the fight,
Now the second man confronted the stranger and punched him in the face but the stranger catches his fist and put him on his knees, when the first man saw what has happen, he stepped back and act like he saw nothing, now the second man call for help, but the first man said, common you can do it, be strong, used you strength I'm here to support you whatever happens. It's 2024 and here, Iran did the same.

Terrorists are not bounded to any law. Terrorists are outlaws.

[gail]

Hiding among civilians doesn't immunize you from attack. In fact, that in itself is a war crime.

[miracleseidu]

I guess the Iranian ambassador is still nursing his wound. Seems he lost both eyes and his right hand. He also lost most of his teeth, and as a result he is unable to narrate what happened. They are waiting for his recovery or otherwise

Everybody saw this on Live... while Israel was dealing with Hamas in Gaza -> at the same time Hezbollah was attacking Israel with rockets from the North. Now Gaza is cleared, and Israel has time to turn around and push back on the North, this is what happens! So what's the problem?? Is that Oke when 2 country attacks one at the same time, but that's not Oke when the one fires back? Why is that?? 🤷‍♂

[augustoliver]

It wasn't Israel that committed mass murder; it was Hamas, whose violent attacks have triggered the conflict. Israel is now taking preemptive steps to protect itself from a war that it did not start, and the violence is spilling over as Iran's allies become involved, further escalating tensions in the region.

Iran need time to check all their personnel cell phones, walkie-talkie, computers, cigarettle lighters, Toasters, their home vibrat0rs before respond🤣

[gurcharangill]

Where's Nasrallah? Is he in hiding?
