The Big Middle Eastern Thread

Recommended Posts

Unfortunately this isn't considered "news" anymore as it has started to just become normal and accepted but Israel continues it's massacre of both Palestine & Lebanon.

With all these governmental bodies they've not been able to do a thing against the modern day Nazi nation. Israel should've been dealt with a long, long time ago but consequences don't exist if you're an ally. Israel will kill as many as they want and if there's any retaliation they'll go "OMG that's so dangerous, they're terrorists, this is why genocide is good". Depressing.

All that there is to look forward to is old bastards like Netanyahu and Biden to die of old age. Maybe also as many IDF terrorists as possible to die as well.

Unbelievable what the people caught in between Hamas and the IDF have to put up with.

Insanity if true, insanity if false.

Imagine believing Israeli reports on anything... all they do is lie but you have been trying to run this "both sides are the same" angle for a while. 😅

The IDF terrorists bomb them, tell any survivors to leave their homes to anywhere, then they bomb wherever anywhere is, they run over alive men, women, and children with bulldozers, gather them up in concentration camps, rape them. On top of all that they kill UN aid workers and journalists. And they're now also doing it in Lebanon. And none of this is new, this is just a extremely brutal example of Israel's latest mass killing of Palestinians and the Lebanese people. Israeli citizens, politicians, and soldiers openly celebrate it all while playing victim to the international community and pressuring/bribing politicians and news media to ignore everything they're openly celebrating to say "Hamas bad, mass killing is defence".

Majority of people aren't going along with the  it and rightly demonise Israel and acknowledge Israeli supporters as extremely morally corrupt.

Now the media are trying to go with "committing genocide is giving IDF terrorists extreme cases of PTSD" and everyone's supposed to feel bad for them? 😂

This whole "they're as bad as eachother" act is such a bullshit cop out.

You literally quote Al Jazeera in here all the time and that's Qatar state media... Qatar and Iran being the 2 financiers of Hamas 😂 - you can't really take Hamas tied sources or IDF sources as accurate... but you also can't just flatly dismiss one side while taking everything the other side says as truth.

I've also not run with the both sides are the same angle either. Israel has been committing human rights abuses on Palestinians since 1947. Hamas has been committing human rights abuses on Palestinians since 2006 - while also doing it's best to kill Israelis every once in a while... mostly as an attempt to invite death to Gaza's doorstep so they can try to milk it for support. Then Gazans keep suffering and their leadership enjoys good lives when they're not hiding amongst the hostages they've taken.

They're similar in that they're both massive cunts. They're not similar in that the scale - what Israel's done is worse and Israel are in the position of power... so if anyone's going to break the cycle of violence it's them.

The majority of people truly don't give a fuck. Almost nobody likes seeing dead kids in the news constantly, just like almost nobody liked seeing bodies paraded after October 7th... but if most people gave a fuck, there'd be a hell of a lot more impetus on western governments to pressure Israel to stop.

Main difference being that Israel's version of events consistently gets proven to be untrue and are widely viewed as unreliable whereas Al Jazeera don't even have to try to make things up as Israel is doing a lot of terrible shit. Israel themselves don't stick to one lie for too long and just move on to lying about their next war crime.

Al Jazeera’s been caught lying several times 🤣 - they’re great for news outside the Middle East, but their journalism within the region is basically just Qatari Fox News.

It is quite strange how good their international coverage is. Also strange at how left leaning its reporting can be. I suppose it’s all to make Qatar look smart?

AJE spent a lot of money bringing in good journalists who are well respected and quality reporters and research staffers - I’m pretty sure this was done to bolster AJE’s reputation and credibility.

Their Arab language reporting is supposed to be much different to AJE’s coverage though. And AJE’s Middle Eastern coverage is blatantly whatever Qatar’s perspective is.

Trusting it for honest reporting in the Middle East is akin to trusting RT for news on the Russia-Ukraine war or PressTV covering any big issue in the US.

Nazi Israel now launching air strikes in Iran. They're calling it precision strikes but everyone knows they always lie and they don't do precision strikes so they're likely going to kill as many as possible and Israel & the news media are gonna run the same script as the one used against Palestine & Lebanon.

Nazi Israel to kill and rape as much as possible with any retaliation labeled as terrorism. Seen this one before.

I'm sure we'll also get a lot of "Iran should be okay with Israel attacking them. They shouldn't be bad guys by having a problem with it" from people that want to push Israel's narrative of being the little guy defending himself.

Israel was prepared to do a observed ballistics test on the bodies to determine if it was caused by a ballistic used in Israeli firearms but they got rid of the bodies before that could be done.  Why would they not want ballistics tests if it wasn't likely caused by Hamas shooting their own people trying to leave.    It is not the first nor will it sadly be the last,  Hamas are just more desperate now.

More information coming out of the Iran strikes and while Iran is trying to bury it under the IRGC controlled media, the strike was impactful but not dramatic.   Images from independent Iranians have showed multiple factories hit including a crude oil production factory however the major hits were against Radar and SAM systems including Hawks, and S300/s400 batteries.    This was more of a show that Israel can fly through Iran with impunity and there is nothing Iran can do to stop it.   

There was a captured video of an F15 I Ra'am over Tehran so this is not even a F35 issue.    The message is sent,  Israel know how to beat Iran's air defence. 

I saw a report that Iran will not respond which I think is a smart deal.

It is likely to be the maximum extent of a conflict between Israel and Iran,  neither has the capacity to do anything to the other nor is there strategic value in it.    He does mention Russia as a potential pot stirrer but you can throw the US into the mixer as well but I think Iran will stay in their own lane.

Something genuinely wrong with Israelis. I guess this is what happens when you give immunity to scumbags.

Eyewitnesses said the convoy was attacked by masked men who threw grenades.

Unrwa commissioner general Philippe Lazzarini did not identify the perpetrators, but he said the “total breakdown of civil order” in Gaza meant it had “become an impossible environment to operate in”.

It doesn't say anything about Israel doing it so why do you assert that it is Israel's problem?

The other article didn't have much other than "eye witness says"  but I find it strange that a place where people are running around with their phones recording somehow has no recording of it?  an eye witness alone is not sufficient to pass the probability test unless it can show beyond reasonable doubt that there is no other explanation as to what could have happened ie: Hamas burned it down because they have more incentive now to cause mass suffering so as to force something of a favourable outcome.

I suppose if you want to MCU and twist reality.  They (hamas) were offered clemency if they surrendered,  they were to be allowed to leave Gaza indefinitely and allow the day after to carry out.   Since that wasnt considered suffice to say the more likely outcome is they will be trying even harder to kill their own as the walls close around them. 

Jubalia is Hamas's Baghouz,  the last stand,  it failed for ISIS,  it will fail for them.

It's been over a month and more and more information, images, satellite imagery, spy plane footage, iranians that resist the IRGC photos and recordings showing the hell Israel rained down on Iran.

Iran knew it was coming and still couldn't do anything,  confirmation is out that IAF struck a nuclear research centre which had active centrifuges.  

Khomenei is also said to be in bad state, and it may see a end to conflict while there is a transition of power and to see what his successor brings to the table.
