  1. Not only can I read, I can do math. To save time, let me just explain your deception. You reference last year's old data (your links) with a 2:1 kill ratio at that time (already good for urban warfare) mix with partial new numbers, add some slight of hand math, then present unsubstantiated civilian death tolls, with no reference or basis in fact. (then you have the gall to scold others about references.) Here is a (recent) refutation of your numbers: Hamas data on civilian casualties in Gaza war is misleading and easily disproved
  2. I googled "drones from Lebanon strike Israel" and got 100s of hits for Israel drones take out 2 Hezbollah commanders in Lebanon. Seems the N. Israeli strike got overshadowed. I did see a Times of Israel story "2 Hezbollah commanders killed in IDF strikes as attack drones injure 3 in north". So the stories seem simultaneous.
  3. I have a link, but it's the Israeli version, not Al Jazeera version. In the Israeli version, Israeli drones in Lebanon take out another Brigadier General level terrorist, Ismail Yosef Baz, Field Commander of Hezbollah’s (read Iran) Coastal Sector. Watch! https://twitter.com/sentdefender/status/1780270439895281869 Searching for your story finds only the Israeli strike. Pull that TV plug!, TBL.
  4. "Sounds very reasonable articulated." , he said. [WIKI] Nicholas Joseph Fuentes (born August 18, 1998) is an American far-right political commentator and live streamer who is known for his white supremacist, misogynistic, homophobic, antisemitic, and Islamophobic views. A former YouTuber, his channel was permanently terminated in February 2020 for violating YouTube's hate speech policy. Fuentes has promoted conspiracy theories against Jewish people, has denied the Holocaust, and advocates for the genocide of Jews.
  5. You have now been provided reasonable proof three times that the old information from US intelligence has been superseded. And you continue to imply that US intelligence is the most trustworthy of sources. Do you know what they say about the Tehran regime?
  6. I repeat the information from yesterday which included a reliability reference: Reference [here]. Reliability of the reference. [here]
  7. Twice now you were provided with new and reliable proof that the late Iranian general Mohammad Reza Zahedi had a “strategic role in planning and executing the Al-Aqsa Storm.", the massacre that led to the slaughter of 1000s of innocent Israelis and Palestinians. From Bkk Brian just now and from me yesterday at 12:22pm. Yet you post old disformative information to mislead. But at least I see from your link that you now trust US MSM and government. 👍
  8. Seems relatively cheap militarily. At $50K you can down 1000 incoming for $50M. Compare that to 3 Israeli F35 squadrons (prob. 35-50 planes) airborne also shooting down drones and cruise missiles. The planes cost ~$5B. That's equivalent to 1,000,000 incoming.
  9. The extraterritoriality thing is more an old wives' tale. Consulate territory is not really Iran territory. reference Contrary to popular belief, diplomatic missions sometimes do not enjoy full extraterritorial status and are generally not sovereign territory of the represented state. The sending state can give embassies sovereign status but this only happens with a minority of countries. Rather, the premises of an embassy remain under the jurisdiction of the host state while being afforded special privileges (such as immunity from most local laws). [also note consulates don't even get the same protections as embassies] Given that, do you still wish to protect the guy responsible for the Oct 7 operation that eventually led to the horrific deaths of thousands of innocent Israelis and Palestinians?
  10. You have it backwards I was criticizing his posting and how he keeps changing the goalpost. When a poster changes the question, that's when you, we win. It's from the saying. "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they argue, then you win". Was that Gandhi?
  11. First they challenge you, then they argue with you, then they change the question, then you win.
  12. It's not about stock, it's about transport, prep, and launch bandwidth. How many how fast. There are missiles and there are missiles. Big computer guided missiles/drones can take much more effort. And of course they must all be targeted. For a data point, again look at my reference on the Russian effort to launch 158 in one day. That was part of a larger attack that lasted 5 days. Total for missiles and drones for the 5 days was 500.
  13. Completely different question. It does not counter the first opinion, just says it would be nice to talk things out before bombing. LOL. Talk things out with Iran's IRGC, who are trying their best to kill you...
  14. Some have suggested the principle of embassy inviolability is in itself inviolable, that is omnipotent. It is not, it is omnipotent only in a specific set of circumstances, those related to diplomatic relations. Why would it it be otherwise? It's a complex legal question so for clarity let's ask ChatGPT, which can access all information.
  15. Math doesn't work that way. How many countries officially designate IRGC as non terrorist nice guys, 0. (excepting perpetrator Iran) 4 Yea, 0 Nay: Thus state terrorist organization.
  16. You need to ask Jimmy Carter. BTW the 'many killed' inside the ancillary consulate annex were mostly non consulate IRGC global terrorist senior officers up to illegal activity. This included general Mohammad Reza Zahedil who helped plan the unconscionable October 7 massacre of women and children in Israel. Reference [here]. Reliability of the reference. [here] I would like to ask you up front, do any of these facts make any difference to you? If not, why not?
  17. There is a 98% probability your text is AI generated according to GPYZero, a helpful AI analysis tool.
  18. HOT: Israel bombs Iran's IRGC global terrorist generals in Syria planning attack on Israel. -- Iran embassy losses Geneva protections after harboring military activity. Oops.
  19. Been there many times. Worked many years for an Irani owned high tech company. Lovely people. Persepolis is beautiful. That's the problem, it's the regime.
  20. None, as long a they are not used for military purposes. Iran's top IRGC terror generals plotting attacks on Israel in the annex lost them their protections. Note: reference
  21. So you mean it's all OK? You would apply different rules would you?
  22. Well, no its not correct, is it. Embassies and consulates are generally not the same. Read, not Al Jazeera. On 1 April 2024, an Israeli airstrike destroyed the Iranian consulate annex building adjacent to the Iranian embassy in Damascus, Syria, killing 16 people, including a senior Quds Force commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi and seven other IRGC officers. WIKI So, knocked off top Irani generals assigned to attacking Israel. Which you ignore.
  23. Both will have learned about the other. Mostly Iran learned what doesn't work, and Iran tried most everything they had. Israel now has parts, including electronics, from many of Iran's weapons. They are probably already on a plane to the US. Never underestimate high technology in modern warfare. That's were the West dominates.
  24. Reading comprehension precedes math. He did not say 5 of 30 cruise missiles hit Israel. He said, of 30 cruise missiles fired, 0 (zero, none) entered Israel, and that Israel's air force shot down 25 of the 30. The remaining 5 may have been shot down by US planes active in the area or jut crashed. Just crashing often occurs with electronic countermeasures. You also ignore the majority of the 320 objects he described. Are you quoting Al Jazeera?
