Taliban defeated US?
The kind of weed some nincompoops on this thread are smoking never ceases to baffle me.
It remains a known fact that US troops withdrew from Afghanistan and were not defeated. All thanks to Barack Obama's administration.
The Taliban overtook the government the moment the last US troops left.
Why didn't they overtake the government when the US troops were still there?
Do you know what "defeat" means?
Did US achieve its military and political objectives in Afghanistan? They ousted a Taliban government only to replace it with another Taliban. Did they hand over properly before leaving?
They left hurriedly overnight without even informing the Afghan govt and the military they had been training that they were leaving. How many expensive military hardware did they leave behind including vehicles helicopters etc?

Think about it and go back to your dictionary to check the meaning of defeat.

Even the satellite images they released show little to no damage.

After all the threats, all the tankers, jets that poured in from US and Europe, this is all they could do.

If they really hit Iran hard like they say, we all know Iran would have been threatening fire and brimstone by now.
Even if they hit Iran hard which they didn't it doesn't change anything. Every overground military structure in Iran has another type buried deep beneath the ground. Iran has been under Western military threat for decades so they know that their overground structures are vulnerable to airstrike so they have buried the main ones that will be needed in a full military confrontation with the adversary.

I just laugh at western media and pro Israel supporters shouting Iran missile production capability has been degraded by Israeli airstrike and won't be able to produce missiles for at least 2 years grin

There is no critical Infrastructure in Iran that does not have an underground alternative.

🔽Military analyst at the Hebrew newspaper Maariv, Avi Ashkenazi :

Israel has also lost its deterrence capability in the region, and it may take years to regain its deterrence superiority.

But most importantly, Israel and the army must form an independent commission to investigate the events of October.

Without discussion and learning, we will once again find ourselves facing the next catastrophe.

[Ak]
That's just it. Oct 7 2023, Iranian April and Oct 2024 missile barrage have destroyed Israel false "invincibility and detterence". Israel should have behaved responsibily by not hitting Iranian consulate in Syria this year it would have retain its partially damaged false "invincibility and detterence" and it would have saved itself from these face saving futile retaliations.

I've scoured the entire web and I couldn't find a single reference of Israeli jets in Iran airspace

They launched long range air to ground missiles from about outside Iran.

They launched from Jordan, Iraq and Syria from what I'm gathering.
Yes the attack was carried out from a standoff location.

Media quoting an Iranian security source:

We will respond to the Israeli attack with hundreds of missiles because of the disturbance of our citizens and waking them up from their sleep with missiles that fell in empty places.

The camp that was targeted is the Fatah camp in Islamshahr. It is empty and is used only for filming. The series of the Prophet Joseph was performed there.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Israel don suffer
Israel does not want escalation as it can't afford it with its ongoing war with Hama, Hez, Houthis and resistance groups from Iraq. This was done for face saving.

🚩@ResistanceTrench | Boost us
Israel is avoiding an escalation so this weak attack is just face saving so the world won't see it as a coward which it is. Even U.S sef is shouting "US military didn't participate in this attack" that should tell you they fear an Iran retaliation and escalation that would bring Middle East to its knees. Israel and U.S understands Iran offensive capabilities and the failure of Israeli air defence system in the last Iranian attack on Israel hence the deployment of the THAAD to Israel. Even at that they still fear an Iranian retaliation.

No isreali jets over Iran, why will Israeli risk her jets be shot down over PR, the airstrikes were launched from Iraq airspace as Jordan open her airspace to allow those jets to pass through then Israeli attacked Syria air defence systems before onward to Iraq airspace.
Israeli military conducted 3 attacks against 3 countries within 20 mins
Syria then Iraq before their main target in Iran.


The strikes were limited according to Israeli spokesperson and they hope that will send a strong message to Iran.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Gallant are Overseeing the Strikes against Iran from the Underground-Headquarters of the Israel Defense Force in Tel Aviv.

They were drones quadcopters. Jordan didn't open its airspace neither did Israeli missiles nor fighter aircrafts were used.

bro what is my own problem with a Jewish prof......his way of life, his choice. I know know you want to sound intelligent but you said terrorism and freedom fighting is the same thing, that is dangerous for people of different religions living around you bro.
I didn't say terrorism and freedom fighting are the same. Every act of rebellion by a resistance movement is to strike terror and fear in the heart of the oppressor and which our fellow Black slaves brothers did until they got their freedom. South Africa ANC did it to fight apartheid. Hamas is doing it they won't be the first nor the last. There can't be rebellion without oppression deal with that bro.

What if the goal is the total destruction of a country that has every right to exist
Israel's aim is to destroy Palestinian people we can see from its Dahiyeh / Shock and Awe Doctrine of mass civilian casualty. I think Israel is the one that has the ability to wipe out Palestinians and it has been doing it systematically for decades. Palestinians have no means to destroy Israel. They don't have warplanes or tanks They only throw stones during peace times whenever Israeli troops kill one of their own or forcefully take their lands.

Hamas doesn't use suicide bombings anymore, they disavowed its use several decades ago

Even now in Gaza, there's been no report of its use in battle...try again later. Personally for me even if they did use it, it'd make no difference

Just off the top of my head, let me outline differences between Hamas and ISIS/Boko haram:

1. Hamas is a registered organization in Palestine with multiple wings that serve different purposes i.e. it has a charity wing, women's wing, political wing, military wing, educational wing, student wing etc. Boko and ISIS reject being a part of modern systems and society

2. Hamas believes in political participation and democracy. They came to power through the vote, Boko and ISIS reject democracy

3. Hamas is a national movement, its fight is limited to Palestine. Boko and ISIS don't even acknowledge the existence of borders

4. Membership of Hamas is voluntary, as for Boko and ISIS, rejection of them even by Muslims is a death sentence

5. Hamas has legitimacy and International recognition from many Governments of the world. Boko and ISIS do not

6. Hamas is an integral part of Palestine, it's homegrown, born out of the struggle and it's members are all Palestinians and that's why it'll never be erased. Boko and ISIS don't have the backing of locals, contain a lot of foreigners in their ranks and locals actively help in fighting them

7. Hamas believes in negotiations and collaborations with parties of different ideologies e.g. attempts to form a government of national unity in Palestine, negotiations with Israelis etc. Boko and ISIS do not tolerate differing ideologies anywhere they are

8. Hamas believes alot in Western education. Gaza's literacy rate before the war was at 98%, one of the highest in the world and it was known for having many schools. Many members of Hamas are very highly educated. Boko haram and ISIS are very anti-west, especially Boko haram (even their given name indicates that)

9. Hamas tolerates opposition existing within it's areas of control. There are different groups in Gaza with different visions of what a free Palestine would look like, which differ with Hamas' vision. Many of those groups today have put their differences aside and are fighting against Israel together. Boko and ISIS notoriously do not accept any form of dissent

10. Hamas is open to change. Hamas has changed its position from complete destruction of Israel, to recognizing Israel side by side with a Palestinian State along the 1967 borders. Hamas revised its Charter in 2017 to reflect this new position. Boko and ISIS do not bend their views

There are many more, but these are a few off the top of my head
Even if Hamas uses suicide bombing that doesn't make Hamas a terrorist organisation here is why. It's just our mind set. Let's say suicide bombing does not exist in the world and they only use guns and other means what will people call them? Guns take lives too. Remember suicide bombing is not the only means terrorists use they use guns too.

What differentiates a Liberation movement from a terrorist organisation is their objectives and goals regardless of how both carry out their attacks

Hamas is fighting for a just cause which is the liberation and freedom of its people from oppression whilst Boko Haram, ISIS fight for unrealistic and barbaric ideologies that they want to impose on the society.

I was expecting this. Any body who exposes the fraud behind Israel even an Israeli himself is a communist right? That is why you won't gain knowledge. He has received many awards. He has lectured world over he is highly sought after. He is a force to reckon with world over and I am very sure you didn't know him until I just mentioned him because you don't even read books. And you'll be bragging here as if you know. Your opinion here does not matter at all. Just live with you ignorance.

All supporters of Israel are driven by religious bigotry. Why was Mossad threatening him that should tell you he his revealing the truth. The truth will always prevail. I think Macron who said Israel was created by the UN is a Communist too? SMH

How can someone put freedom fighters and terrorist in the same room.
You and obedience4 are the ones who need mental evaluation. A Jewish professor of History from the University of Haifa known as Ilan Pappe has been crying out for years and has written a lot about the lie behind the fraud nation called Israel he is one of the few Israeli intelligenstia speaking the truth he was receiving death threats from Mossad and Shin-Bet that was why he left Israel and relocated to the UK here to continue his lecturing.

He has written a lot on the Israeli-Palestine issue.

The ethnic cleansing of Palestine
Gaza in Crisis
The Biggest Prison on Earth: A History of Occupied Territories
The Forgotten Palestinians
The Idea of Israel
Ten Myths About Israel
Israel and South Africa: The Many Faces of Apartheid
A History of Modern Palestine
Lobbying For Zionism on Both sides of the Atlantic


He is a professor of international repute if he keeps exposing the lies and evils of his country then your opinion as a Nigerian who is an ignoramus does not matter. Go and read all those books and come back to engage me. Watch his interviews and lectures online then may be you'll be able to cure your ignorance by an Israeli intellectual who tells the blunt truth.

Guy you should take your advice, I told you before to read up the ideologies and objectives of Hamas.
And see if it's manifestos isn't in conjunction with the Jihad pricincples of leading terrorist groups around the world

I already see you for who you are, your last correspondence with me shows your stance already I don't have time for a fruitless back and forth. You said it doesn't matter how Hamas go about it's business of killing civilians, bombing civilians, kidnapping civilians as long as the they are fighting a "righteous" cause. They should keep the freedom fighting going with the killings of civilians.

If killing civilians is how you get independence, or fight for freedoms, then nigeria won't have gotten independence, india through GANDHI won't have gotten independence from the British.
Martin Luther King won't have gotten blacks the rights they enjoy today.

Killing civilians, suicide bombings and kidnapping is now the new tools for freedom fighters.
Who started the killing of civilians?
Even before the war started a day does not go by without you hearing in the news that Israel forces have killed an innocent Palestinian. You keep taking their lands forcefully because they are powerless and stateless and you want them to sit idle and watch or say thank you for killing us like chickens and forcefully taking our lands. Keep avoiding the truth. When you push people to the wall they'll fight for their freedom and avenge themselves regardless of how they carry it out.

Terrorism seems to have a different definition to some of you here

Different terrors groups have different origins, but one thing is constant about them. And that's is there ways of operations there modus operandi are always the same, striking terror through suicide bombings kidnapping and killings of civilians.
Is suicide bombing the only method you can use to strike terror?. Israel's Dahiyeh Doctrine of mass civilian casualty by using its military especially its airforce is what? Is it not to strike terror. So who is the real terrorist here?

Israel was the one who even started terrorism in Palestine. Have you read about Haganah, Irgun, Stern which now forms what is know as IDF today? They were terrorist groups formed by Zionists in Israel to kill and plant explosives in the homes of Palestinians who protested against their presence in Palestine after Britain handed the land to the Jews in 1947.

Bro you better go and read. You are not discussing with an ignoramus here.
