@hahussain So killing a few hundred women & children is completely fine, so long as 20 or 30 Hezb members die? I would love to see how you would feel if your family was blown to pieces whilst driving innocently only to be randomly killed. I don't think you will have the same logic then

A quick search shows that of the 200 Lebanese killed in 100 Israeli airstrikes, yesterday, 14 were Amal (green posters) and 11 Hezbollah jihadis (Hezbollah stopped issuing martyrs posters to make all losses look non-combatant). When AFP reports the number, it should qualify how many combatants (that’s relatively easy to do). But even newswires come with agendas these days. It’s unfortunate that non-combatants lost their lives as collateral damage, but this is what happens when Hezbollah drags Lebanon to war “in support of Gaza.” Will American members of Congress who falsely accused Israel of committing war crimes in Lebanon correct their libel? Or does politicking trump facts, no matter what?

@zriboua It took a million Syrian lives and 13 years of devastating civil war to bring down the Assad regime. If almost 50 years of sanctions, war on Iran, protests couldn't bring down the regime, I highly doubt this will be enough. There has to be some sort of civil war to achieve it

I have a different position, ceasefire, no ceasefire, I just don’t think the regime can survive, it’s a revolutionary one with a very specific set of military capabilities that have been obliterated and that domestically has broken its social contract after the January massacre. I just don’t see them surviving. The moment they open their economy everything will crash.

@DrewPavlou You should be in handcuffs for these vile views you spew online. You’re actually no different to the isis, irgc, ccp and russian terrorists that you claim to be against. Hopefully you get thrown in prison for a very long time

No Australian soldier should ever be prosecuted for war crimes, EVER - full stop. Our enemies - the CCP, Russia, Iran, jihadists - are all laughing at us. They would never try their own people in a million years. So why should we uphold non-existent standards that they spit on and mock? I don’t care what Ben Roberts Smith did in Afghanistan, the simple fact of the matter is that if the CCP invaded Australia tomorrow we would be handing him a rifle and telling him to go out and defend our nation. So how can we betray him like this? Australians sleep peaceably in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf. Ben Roberts-Smith is that rough man.

@DrewPavlou Iran is pushing its limit while testing the US/Israeli limits, so long as they believe they can push these limits, they will not surrender anytime soon. Iran actually holds more cards than the US. Its only weakness is actually internal dissent / opposition. Time is on Iran's side

Persian civilisation is beautiful, I really don’t want innocents hurt. So I call on the Iranian regime to immediately surrender, tonight, in order to save lives and protect Persian civilisation. The Iranian regime picked a fight against a much bigger power that they simply cannot win. They violated American red lines and kept pushing against America’s sphere of influence, baiting a much stronger military power. And now we are at this incredibly dangerous point. Trump won’t back down, this will only get worse, the only option is for the Iranian regime to surrender immediately. Please, see reason, and end this madness. Stand down and surrender. Save lives.

@rationalaussie Trump will attack infrastructure and takeover Iranian oil, it's happening, more to come... this war will only get bigger & more violent. This is a TOTAL war, it only ends in collapse of the regime or after heavy Israeli/US losses over a long period which forces them to give up

Trump will Taco. The tell is that his rhetoric gets increasingly deranged the worse things are going for him - that's how he negotiates. He has to make everyone believe he has genuinely lost the plot. If the Iranians think he's mentally unwell they might actually believe he'll nuke them. Hence why his tweets the past few days sound like a madman about to destroy their civilisation. He's not gonna drop a nuke, this is just how he negotiates when he has no actual leverage. He's trying to create leverage that doesn't exist by artificially creating what is most scarce: fear of consequence. I fully expect to wake up 8 hours from now to a headline something along the lines of 'we were so close to giving the orders, I called them and I said - listen listen we can always take them back to the stone age next week if we need to but I'm hearing good things - tremendous things - from the much more reasonable Iranians we've been speaking with. Excellent things. Very positive developments. And so I've informed my team to hold off on dropping the BIG bombs just a little longer. Let's see! PRESIDENT DONALD J TRUMP' And just like that stonks will rip and we'll be waiting until the market closes end of week for more aggressive escalations.

@Ostrov_A Lol Israel decided to attack Iran in the holiest month for muslims, in Ramadan, I don't see how you can try to get any sympathy from anyone at this point...

🚨 It’s 03AM in Israel, during Passover - one of the most holy periods of the Jewish year - and Iran is raining missiles down on Tel Aviv. World outrage? Nope. Just DEAFENING SILENCE!

@DrewPavlou This does look like the US Air Force is currently operating out of Tel Aviv, Israel? Maybe do some research next time before you put up these BS posts.

There are no American pilots based in Israel, she’s just a liar. 26,000 people still liked this though. Many of them would be bots. Others would be Third Worlders. And the rest are just literally mentally retarded

@ausstockchick So now paying cash will basically subsidise those paying with cards... as all retailers will just build in these surchages into their price... So if anything this is even a bigger rort.

Finally the surcharge rort will come to an end. Surcharging on debit and credit cards will end in six months. But… We will ultimately pay with higher prices at cafes. #ausbiz #auspol

@glwatchdog @allenanalysis Kevin's an idiot. The government is constantly 'stealing' from everyone through income taxes every year. He doesn't mind this, but when its a tax on wealth, it becomes a problem? Wealth tax is so much fairer than income taxes, as income taxes make it much harder to become wealthy

🚨WATCH: Kevin O’Leary, who’s estimated to have a $400 Million net worth, got MAD at podcast hosts Graham & Jack after they suggested that there should be a wealth tax, explaining that people like Elon Musk deserve everything they get. “You’re going to hell for saying that… It’s un-American, it will destroy the fabric of the economy.”

Kevin O’Leary’s advice for becoming a millionaire: “Take 20% of your $69,000 salary and invest it every week. Don’t touch it.” 20% of $69,000 is $13,800 per year. The median American rent is now over $1,700 per month — $20,400 per year. Before food. Before utilities. Before healthcare. Before childcare. Before transportation. A person earning $69,000 cannot invest 20% because 20% does not exist after they pay to exist. .@TheICHpodcast

@JEChalmers You do know this just means businesses will hide the credit card surcharges inside their pricing. Meaning even people paying cash will now get charged this surchage. This just made the credit card fee problem even bigger...

BREAKING: Australians will no longer pay $1.6bn in card surcharges from October 1. People shouldn’t be punished for using a credit or debit card. That's why the Reserve Bank will today take steps to end credit and debit card surcharging from October 1. This change will make a meaningful difference with Australians no longer paying $1.6 bn a year in surcharges, and small businesses will save $910m.

@translatingpal Where was she when her beloved HezbIran was massacring & helping Bashar al assad massacre thousands of children in Syria. At least Israel warns the civilians most times before it attacks, Hezb never showed Syrians this kind of mercy. Now they cry when no one is sympathetic

🇱🇧“You are nothing but bootlickers of America and Israel.” In a fiery message circulating online, a Lebanese voice calls out Lebanese public figures and influencers who rushed to condemn Hezbollah rockets but remain silent as Israeli occupation attacks continue to massacre civilians in southern Lebanon. She says that those who truly love Lebanon stand with every inch of it and every person in it, not only when it suits their politics or their followers. The speaker accuses these figures of claiming patriotism while ignoring the killings of children, pregnant women, and families under Israeli bombardment. She also criticizes what she describes as their eagerness to praise and defend Gulf governments, especially the UAE, while remaining silent about the destruction in their own country, saying their loyalty appears driven by visas, money, and influence rather than genuine love for Lebanon.

@MenchOsint Definitely not underground, this is at night, probably somewhere in the remote mountains of the Southern Bekaa, drive this launcher quickly out of the underground base or secret house, launch & then hide it quickly.

⭕️ Scenes from Hezbollah targeting the Glilot base (headquarters of the 8200 military intelligence unit) in the suburbs of Tel Aviv with a barrage of guided Rockets. (Looks like a massive underground facility)

@KrysiaJ @thetimes Probably carrying a few million dollars worth of Jewellery & Gold, so makes complete sense... lol

Absolute sensationalist rubbish here from @thetimes. It does not cost 5-10k to drive to Oman unless you’re an idiot. Why would you need ex-military drivers? Where do they think Oman is? Afghanistan?

@DrewPavlou This has nothing to do with Jews & everything to do with Zionism as an ideology. Same way Nazism has nothing to do with German people. Zionism is a threat to the Muslim/Arab world as its a foreign & expansionist ideology that has its sights on conquering the entire Middle East

It’s amazing how much the Jews break Arab nationalist minds. Robin’s family and friends in Syria were terrorised by Iran for ten years, almost a million dead. But now he’s praying that the Iranian regime holds on. Simply because he hates the Jews more.

@MarioLeb79 They seem to love these meetings... like most Lebanese they seem to love sitting around all day talking & drinking tea.

Army Radio: it was a Meeting for High Ranked Zoom Meetin anyone ? 😬

@clashreport Now go ask Israel & see how many nuclear bombs they have... and see how much shame they have to say it

Steve Witkoff: Let me say this, because I forgot this small little detail. In that first meeting, both the Iranian negotiators said to us directly, with no shame, that they controlled 460 kilograms of 60% and they're aware that that could make 11 nuclear bombs, and that was the beginning of their negotiating stance. So that's - they were proud of it. They were proud that they had evaded all sorts of oversight protocols to get to a place where they could deliver 11 nuclear bombs.

@propandco All this is fantasy... you don't think Israel would go out with a bang and start nuking major ME cities like Cairo, Damascus, etc killing millions... look up why the Arabs lost 1973... Israel threatened the US with Nuclear war if it didn't come to its aid.

You see how they cannot handle Iran? Can you imagine if the region united together and took the fight directly to Israel? They would fold Egypt in the south, Jordan and Syria from the east, Hezbollah from the North, the Turks at sea with their drones and jets in the sky and of course the Pakistanis that the Saudis would hire to fight for them. With Iranian missiles and the most underrated pilots in the world, aka the Pakistani Air Force, Israel would fold. They would be done for in a month. The opportunity is literally right there in front of them. It’s right there!

@UnitedStatesWar @HealthRanger You act as if the US has unlimited money, a long war will destroy the US & Israel financially & politically... they both need a short war, something Iran might not give them...

@HealthRanger One problem we have C-17 Globemasters aircraft that can fly more weapons to the Middle East so this post have failed miserably we won’t be running out anytime because we are producing them here in the US daily

Iran's war strategy is fairly straightforward: Blind U.S. forces by taking out radar installations, then fire low-cost, low-end missiles and drones at various targets to deplete U.S. air defense interceptors. Once U.S. air defense batteries run out of ammunition, then Iran will launch the larger, more dangerous hypersonic missiles or even ballistic missiles. I created this infographic to explain this. Full article coming tomorrow.

@MarioNawfal Stop sharing fake AI footage lol... so stupid

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 American tanker aircraft is refueling Israeli fighter jets mid-flight en route to Iran. x.com/visegrad24/sta…

@j4ppleby You clearly don't understand the ME wars. Sinwar knew that Israel would eventually launch a pre-emptive attack on Hamas & Hezbollah (like they did multiple times before) so he chose to "use it before you loose it". This war was inevitable & has been decades in the making

So Oct 7th was the dumbest fucking move in a long history of Islamist dumb fucking moves 🥴
