    The abduction, detainment and then execution/torture of civilians is a pretty gnarly look. More so then civilians being unfortunate collateral damage while effectuating legitimate war aims.

    There are a couple other posters we cannot @ anymore. I guess they committed graver sins.

    A long read but was well worth it. Thanks for posting this basso. Like spaceghost posted earlier, people in here that seemed to be the experts of this war did not know jack about history of the Middle East conflicts.

    Half the people on the d&d can’t figure out pronouns and keep calling Latinos either ‘latinX’ or ‘breakfast tacos’
    @AroundTheWorld the fat whities are racists toward Asians.
    South and east . They mad their kids are smarter than theirs. They don’t know what looting and shoplifting is, think it’s ok for dumb kids and crack heads to do.
    this Middle East conflict is real war, it’s not a bunch of people offended by Dave Chappelle making funny jokes about lesbians not wanting some D from the trans dude who thinks he’s a girl

    Iran Helped Plot Attack on Israel Over Several Weeks
    The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps gave the final go-ahead last Monday in Beirut

    https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/iran-israel-hamas-strike-planning-bbe07b25

    DUBAI—Iranian security officials helped plan Hamas’s Saturday surprise attack on Israel and gave the green light for the assault at a meeting in Beirut last Monday, according to senior members of Hamas and Hezbollah, another Iran-backed militant group.

    Officers of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had worked with Hamas since August to devise the air, land and sea incursions—the most significant breach of Israel’s borders since the 1973 Yom Kippur War—those people said.

    Details of the operation were refined during several meetings in Beirut attended by IRGC officers and representatives of four Iran-backed militant groups, including Hamas, which holds power in Gaza, and Hezbollah, a Shiite militant group and political faction in Lebanon, they said.

    U.S. officials say they haven’t seen evidence of Tehran’s involvement. In an interview with CNN that aired Sunday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said: “We have not yet seen evidence that Iran directed or was behind this particular attack, but there is certainly a long relationship.”

    “We don’t have any information at this time to corroborate this account,” said a U.S. official of the meetings.

    A European official and an adviser to the Syrian government, however, gave the same account of Iran’s involvement in the lead-up to the attack as the senior Hamas and Hezbollah members.
