    Definitely strange bedfellows.

    This shows though that Israel certainly considers that Iran is a serious threat and not toothless.

    I honestly don't know how much of it is that or just both sides trying to gin up their base to have a enemy to direct from domestic issues. Netanyahu is a corrupt grifter also and would love to hand wave his corruption towards a foerign enemy.

    @AroundTheWorld there’s a Netflix documentary called Inside the Mossad where they interview current members and past heads of the agency. You’ll be surprised to find out what position the leaders take on Iran and the past acts Israel has taken (killing scientists, Bibi Congress poster presentation). They make no secret of the fact that there’s one person behind these moves, and he repeatedly acts in opposition to advice from intelligence.

    I also recommend it outside of all that as it’s an intelligence agency that operates much differently than any other in the world

    Assination sounds like some Red Sparrow hanky panky from Putin's Golden Shower brigade.

    Better put that secret service to full use ex-president Drumpf!

    Most Israelis aren't any less or more brown than the guy who got stopped from making nukes.

    And? You have a problem with Muslims. It's been known here for a decade now dude. It shows how comfortable you are with it as you had no objection to that part. You aren't objective and your lack of nuance and just telling people they are wrong and naive without any explanation helps strengthen my claim. You cheerlead for Israel because it's right wing government does aggressive things to Muslim people.

    Total nonsense.

    Israel doesn't want to wipe Iran off the map. Iran wants to wipe Israel off the map. Israel has a right to defend itself.

    Israel is a bastion of freedom in the region. This guy was part of a regime that throws gay people from tall buildings, murders "apostates" and is a major global sponsor of terrorism.

    For you leftists to talk about "Iran having a right to self-defense like Israel" is laughable.

    Dude you arean adult who can type in complete sentences. You can't be this naive.

    Iranian leadership has one thing on mind above all else: self-preservation.

    Like I said before, Iranian leadership rhetoric of Israel is nothing but Kabuki theater to direct frustrations of its citizens to a foerign enemy.

    If you sincerely believe that Iran would literally destroy Israel without a thought of their own self-preservation since that would be the immediate end of their regime also, then you have a very nice orthodox religous view of morality where humans are either evil or good. That's not how the world works big boy.

    Your appeal to emotion lacks zero rationality. Does the United States not have self-preservation instincts when they topple foreign regimes and fund their own state sponsored terror by funding foerign militias and being engaged in proxy wars?

    We call Iran's proxy influence in regions in the Middle East like Iraq and Yeman "state sponsored terror" while US and US ally involvement in these proxy battles such as Saudi in Yeman is just state across in acting their foerign policy. How much of a niave idiot do you have to be not to see the double standard? I'm pretty sure the innocent civilians who died from a Saudi or American bomb are just as said about dying as someone who dies at the hands of Iranian bombs/militias.

    A regional power stretching their muscles with proxy conflicts is a tried and true tradition of modern neo-liberalism politics. We just call that "terrorism" when Iran does it.

    Last time I checked, no countries has invaded Iran because they find militia groups to execute their foerign policy desires in countries like Iraq.

    Also, when is the last time a shia extremist mass murdered people on Western soil?

    Saudi has been far more responsible for international terror but since Saudi plays ball with the US in terms of trade on US terms, they aren't a terror nation. How convenient.

    Again, you must be a naive idiot if you think that Iran is some unique place where the Maslow Hierarchy of needs isn't followed where self-preservation isn't the number one goal.

    He worked under the Obama administration. @AroundTheWorld thought Obama was a secret Muslim insider trying to appease Muslim extremists around the world. He probably thinks that Brennan is a secret Iranian spy.

    WTF, stop making stuff up. I never thought Obama was a secret Muslim. He is just pretty far left, I like him anyway. As to Brennan, he is an extreme leftist, yes.

    If your father goes ****s prostitutes and then yells at you for having a pre-marital relationship, would you respect that person's wish or command?

    You are also too dumb to realize these actions are against your own stated interest of Iran not getting nukes.

    This stuff tells Iran that their sovereignty is threatened. What does a nation-state want when they fell their sovereignty is threatened? Create a device that is essentially the ultimate "don't step on my property" sign. This does nothing besides egg them on to accelerate their weaponized enrichment program.

    Just read the website I posted. Iran's leadership are sponsors of terrorism. They are trying to gain weapons of mass destruction. Stopping them from getting that is a good thing, despite the moral dilemma of someone being killed.
