Imagine 20+ months of this without bomb shelters with minimum to no food and with constant shelling and moving. Israel has made bombings and terrorism become normal for people in yemen, lebanon, syria and Iraq. Israel has made the lives of millions unsafe in the middleeast.

Germany, UK you created Israel government and the US enabled its colonization and genocide since day 1. Europe should take them back or stop them.

In 2025, the humans of the world nations still compete in every scientific advancement known to mankind, and mine every precious and rare material source, and employ every advancement and investment in programming, AI, engineering and design on the planet for intimidation and colonization launching metals into each other bodies, polluting and destroying the planet climate and resources, spreading pain and murder to each other for selfish gain. Now those maniacs are threatening with nuclear missiles. People who do everything in their power and utilize everything in the possession to bring humanity and the world down.

All because they want few Zionists to rule in aparthied and colonization and not give democracy to whom they see as inferior races of other humans instead of working and lifting each other. The world nations should stop this instead of heading toward WWIII as if humans cant learn history.

Comment sections have been absolutely fucked since this started. I've seen some reports that these are hitting military targets but apparently I should be cheering about rockets landing a few dozen meters from this apartment?

I remember a video of an Israeli rocket hitting just outside a shop window in Yemen/Iran at a similar distance and people were balking that it could be hitting anything of strategic importance. Suddenly pictures of collapsed apartments and hospitals are fine because it's the guys you don't like?

Apparently it's a bad take for me to think civilians shouldn't be bombed regardless of how much Zionist brainwashing they have. People talking about "they deserve it" and pointing to Isreal opinion polls showing 60% support X awful thing. Last time I checked, a rocket doesn't take a survey before it explodes. So 4/10 people in that explosion deserve to die by association?

You all make me sick, down vote away.

Insert "this one sparks joy" meme?

[–] testfactor@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Woah, that's nuts. I feel like most missiles don't reach target in Israel. Maybe that's cause most are aimed at Jerusalem and the Iron Dome though?

[–] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 32 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The slower ones frequently get intercepted, but every time I see one land it is those hypersonic fast ones.

[–] Redex68@lemmy.world -1 points 13 hours ago (3 children)

I doubt Iran has any real hypersonic missiles, these are probably just balistic missiles.

I don't know if anyone has any real information but I'd think Iran would be shooting air bases and such. Targets that hurt Israel's ability to hurt Iran. Israel's command probably cares less about a residential building (full of people or empty) than a hangar with F35s.

[–] IttihadChe@lemmy.ml 13 points 19 hours ago

Iran are definitely targeting air bases and other militarized targets which are regions Israel has a media blackout on so we don't hear about them as much and only hear about impacts in Tel-Aviv which is a militarized "civilian" zone (human shields was always projection of their own policies).

[–] 3abas@lemm.ee 20 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Iran has spent decades building an arsenal of cheap drones that aren't really designed to hit targets, they are designed to financially cripple Israel by expending expensive iron dome charges.

[–] IttihadChe@lemmy.ml 8 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

From I've seen they certainly used that initially with mostly older, cheaper, and slower drones in the initial waves intentionally to bleed out the iron dome but have been changing their strategy as the "Iron Dome" is weakened and/or gaps are discovered.

With each wave they adjust their strategy. Interspersing more Hypersonics and layering the drones in different patterns/locations to more readily distract/avoid the iron dome.

From estimated ratios of 9 impacts out of/150 launched in the first few waves vs 9/50 in the more recent waves.

Though obviously Israel hides the damage/strikes through media blackouts on military sites so we can't know for sure how accurate these estimates are and we mainly only get reporting on impacts in Tel-Aviv or other militarized "civilian" zones.

And the numbers are staggering. I forget exactly but those early retaliations for assassination last year that where laughed at expended something like 100s of millions of dollars.

[–] bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 1 day ago

israel has military infrastructure in the middle of residential areas.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I feel like attacking civilians also helps Israel's propaganda while not hurting it's capacity to continue escalating.

[–] rumimevlevi@lemmings.world 3 points 20 hours ago

At this point who care. Many Western and arab countries protect israel regardless

Is this the strike from Friday or a new one?

[–] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

According to the people who posted it, it is from today. It is certainly not the same barrage as we saw Friday, but it could be another barrage which was on Friday. Nothing is entirely certain right now, but I think it is from today.

[–] belastend@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 day ago

That's the Friday one.
