Iran funded the construction of the tunnels Hamas uses to move and store weapons, hostages, soldiers, etc. North Korea contributed money to the tunnels as well.
Russia, North Korea, Iran, Hamas, Islamic State, Islamic Jihad, and Mujahedeen, are anti-American besties. All of them either by funding the tunnels and weaponry, or by directly participating, are responsible for the October 7 attack in Israel.
This is why I say it would be a derelection of office for an American president to do anything other than use this opportunity to beef up Israel’s defensive capabilities.
Iran is coming for Israel. When, not if. Western support for Israel is the thing that holds Iran back.
Even if the current Israeli government kills all 2.5 million Palestinians, it would be like a tiny blip on the scale of humanitarian catastrophe that would be unleashed by a hot war between Israel and Iran. Every surrounding country in the middle east, north Africa, and South Eastern Europe would see tens of millions of refugees. The world would see tens of millions of people die in that war and resulting cascade of failed states; famine disease, exposure, maybe even nuclear fallout. The world cannot abide another failed state in the middle east, let alone multiple, additional failed states.
If only Israel could stop massacring innocent civilians and save their weaponry for actual enemies rather than using them to create an entire generation of Palestinians with slaughtered kids or parents, ripe for recruiting by Hamas or any other Iranian backed group, that would be great.

Blame Hamas. It is their strategy to take hostages, surround themselves with women and children to use as human shields, refuse to let them leave, and to engage and intentional martyrdom. They built the tunnels under their city, hid the shafts in schools and apartment buildings, hospitals, and did not evacuate when they were advised to. They used the tunnels, the construction of which was funded by Iran and North Korea, as an instrumentality of terrorism. Dropping bombs on every tunnel entrance–from which the October 7 attackers emerged and retreated into–is the literal definition of a proportionate response: a direct strike on the means of the aggression, on the enemy’s ability to repeat the attack.
Hama’s isn’t helping anybody but there’s a reason they’ve appeared, I don’t agree with anything they do but Israel kinda created this. Zionism is as much of a problem as Islamic terrorism and when the entire MO is to claim a region that somebody already lives in you’re literally asking for a response.
Well, yeah. Zionism is idiotic, based on mysticism and superstition. Wish we had some kind of mind control space laser neurolizer or something that could free the middleeast from such hysterics. 99% of all of this is because these guys here don’t like the way these guys over here do a thing that does not affect them in any way, and also, they cannot agree on the hours of operation or whatever for various piles of rocks. Eventually, mankind will reject religion, unless religion drags us into nuclear winter first. Rocks are not life. I wish they’d understand that. I wonder what the alternate reality is like if humanity had not this ball and chain?
Shut the fuck up. You know why the tunnels exist? Because without them the blockade would starve out Gaza.
Oh really North Korea and Iran funded Hamas and Hezbollah to build those tunnels because they are so generous and caring and just wanted to feed the people Gaza?
Grow up.
how would a hot israel-iran conflict even work? they arent neighbours with iraq, syria and jordan between them
