i love it when "journalists" say unprecedented . they really love that word

[lemondays]

When Israel attacked Iranian embassy nobody reported, but when Iran retaliates its breaking news?

[twesj]

So telling Iran "don't" didn't work? Who would have thought?

All I can think back to is the video of that Israeli girl saying the sounds of Gaza being bombed in the distance is a musical melody to her ears . She is about to have the volume turned up.

[ginab.g.]

Please keep our troops out of this mess! 🙏🙏

How is this an “unprecedented” aerial attack by Iran?

"You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places." Matthew 24:6-7

Surprise: A country retaliated after being attacked by another country.

They attacked their embassy, what they were expecting? The argument that it was to the building next to the embassy is just an excuse when we know who was killed in the embassy. People forget that Israel has been attacking Palestine for years and bothering Iran because they want that region.

[ravanos]

You attack an embassy and you expect Iran to just sit there and think thats ok?? Any escalation at this point would be the fault of Israel.

[HuskerFox]

Does this is shit ever end? Could we just have 1 year without people fucking each other up?

[mcearsovn]

I hope other countries do not interfere in this conflict.

[Pilts]

Did you cover Isr*eli unprovoked aggression this closely when they attacked the Iranian embassy or what they're doing to Gaza

[martinishakerxxl]

Netanyahu wanted this so badly. He wants the US to fight Iran for them!

[ezshmee]

This anchor cares more about Israel than the U.S.

[davidallan]

The drones cost a couple of hundred bucks and can be produced ad infinitude. The himars systems cost 4 mil and the missiles 60k a piece. The is going to be very expensive for somebody, most probably us taxpayer as usual.

[cheretodd]

Israeli response? This was the Iranian response... And so we continue a cycle of violence 😞

[abdullahkhair]

Well, Iran got all rights to defend themselves

[syedferozshah]

Iran has the right to defend itself. According to the UN article

[draggodraggon]

as long as the earth is occupied by humans peace is not possible.
