The page also says Iranian attack failed because the damage wasn’t significant. Like, they were talking on CNN about Iran warning everyone beforehand and not sending everything at once to limit damage.

    Anybody else remember the beginning of the SMO in Ukraine where the USA talking heads were like, “Russia hasn’t blasted every city off the map and caused untold civilian causalities in the first weeks of the war… so Russia is gong to lose any minute now…”?

        Liberals were insisting that the Wagner Group was doing a straight up Nazi Cosplay as they Blitzkregged towards Poland. But then also Ukraine’s Ghost of Kiev had single-handedly shot down half the Russian air force.

        Azov were freedom fighters rescuing all the beautiful blonde-haired blue eyed babies. Russia was in the midst of a pogrom against the Uber-volk. Half the Russian population had just been killed in an ill-conceived human wave attack against stout Ukrainian defenses. Then we got an earful about how the Spring Offensive would end in Moscow.

        I think the craziest part of the war was when Prigozhin tried his coup and the Ukrainian front lines did not move. Like, if there was ever a fucking moment for western forces to reclaim territory, it was when Moscow was being evaluated and half of Wagner Group was racing towards the capital. But they just sat on their thumbs in confused shock, waiting for the next shoe to drop. This was the full extent of what Germany, France, the UK, and the US could bring to bare against Russia. Stunned silence as half of Putin’s active duty military turn coat.

        What a fucking clown parade.

    Jordan reported some shrapnel falling on its territory, causing no significant damage or injuries.[42][43] In Israel, one child, a 7-year old Israeli Bedouin girl, was struck and injured by part of a missile.[27] Thirty-one other people suffered either minor injuries while rushing to protected areas or were treated for anxiety.[28] The next day, Iran’s envoy to the United Nations said that the attacks “can be deemed concluded”.[53]

    so 1 person stubbed their toe on their way to hide, and 30 just needed a hug?

      Yeah, but they are Israelis, that mean tye IDF is allowed to kill at least 100 Palestine children and other 3000 Palestine civilians. That’s just the IDF maths.

      So the vast majority of Iran’s bombardment were intercepted or hit their non civilian targets…

      Better than bombing a hospital and retroactively claiming it was a military stronghold…

    According to westerners, it’s not true bombing when it don’t kill at least few dozens civilians, hit at least one school or hospital and don’t even doubletap rescuers, damn amateurs.
