    Again with platitudes while ignoring basic human principles.

    Iran is involved in proxy wars funding militias and doing bombing raids just like the US and Saudi are doing in the region. We call the Iranian acts as terrorism because they don't play with US rules in regards to trade while Saudi does.

    Terrorism today is a useless term that is spammed by the more powerful influential entity in order to de-legitimize their opponents.

    The term "terrorism" means whatever the world's hegemonic power wants it to mean.

    The aim, in my view, is to sabotage the incoming US administration’s ability to negotiate a deal that could bring economic relief to Iran. Israel is not interested in legitimizing such deals. It wants a weakened Iran, whether they have WMD or not. A number of other countries in the region, which Israel is fostering alliances with, want the same thing.

    A weakened Iranian terror regime is a good thing. Just ask Lebanon.

    Should people in Yeman want a Saudi terror regime or a Iranian terror regime? Do Iraqi citizens want a US terror regime?

    They would all be better off if they were run by Israel. I agree.

    So I'm assuming you tuned out of sincere discussion because you know you are wrong and your pride can't compel you to just admit it?

    Got it.

    I think the French, Spaniards, South Americans, Pacific Coasters and Italians got it right with their terroir regimes.

    Being a supremacist is bad even if it's Jewish Supremacy.

    I was definitely speaking more of a pluralist society than a supremacist society.

    Just under 20% of Israel's population are Muslims. They have freedom of religion. They are better off than Muslims in Iran.

    Huh? I was referring to ATW wanting the entire Middle East being run by Israel and Germany also.

    Huh? I was referring to Germany (or any State) being better off run by Jews (or any single race/group), though back in the day some of us college types wondered if the world would have been better off if, after WWII, instead of Palestine the Jews were just given a huge chunk of Central Europe.

    Iran is nothing but innocent victims. They wouldn't have done something like have their rebels in Iraq launch rockets into the Green Zone in Baghdad about 10 days ago breaking a truce, killing a child, and wounding at least 5 others.....

    Was this assassination an appropriate response to that attack? Probably not, but I'm willing to bet nobody in here knows the intelligence on what is really going on and this became a high value target of opportunity for Israel.

    It wasn't self defense. It wasn't in the heat of a battle. It was murder.
