Sometimes I wish Iran would pull out all the stops and just attack Israel in the same way Israel attacks them, Lebanon and Gaza, but then I stop myself and say regardless how monstrous zionists are, that is cruel and unacceptable regardless and I’m glad Iran has the restraint to fight professionally. Israelis on the other hand absolutely want to be as monstrous as possible and celebrate their government engaging in absolute butchery; heck, they get upset if they perceive any restraint on their government’s part.
If the news had any integrity they would report on Iran’s professional conduct and would make that comparison.
it’s fucked that israel will institutionalize and officiate terrorism and the use of human shields, through things like the Dahiya doctrine, Neighbor procedure, Mosquito protocol, etc. and get off scot free.
UN reports have found that sex and gender-based violence commited by the IOF is so rampant that it can only be explained as standard operating procedure

I still recall when (an organization? A UN program?) that studied child SV in Israel lodged some complaints about their findings, their offices were stormed and their computers seized.
What’s more is that Israel has a very serious SA and SV problem and this is when the victims are Israelis themselves; they don’t even view Palestinians as humans, and you know that means it’s infinitely worse against them. Heck, just look at that riot that occurred when an IDF soldier was going to be prosecuted for the SV he was filmed engaging in, a riot that was in defense of the soldier (who became a bit of a folk hero now).

Does Iran even have that capability? They don’t have an Airforce that can operate in a meaningful way, let alone offer a threat vs Israel and they don’t have sleeper cells that can operate within Israel.
They best they’ve got are low-tech drones and Ballistic Missles that amount to less of a threat the Germany’s WW2 terror bombings of London.
I think that’s a crazy analogy to make considering that Iran’s last attacks on Israel made the distinction between random terror bombing and modern, precision strikes on high value targets more clearly than anything we’ve seen outside Ukraine. Similarly, Iran has the ability to target Israel power infrastructure over years of war. How do you think these war tourists will fare in genocide Disneyland without electricity?
They aren’t random like WW2 missiles, but not a lot of them get through, which means they can’t really do that much even if they did hit a building in Tel Aviv (which they did). if it took 100 missiles to hit one building that’s not a lot of threat there. Hitting a power plant is great, but again, 100missiles to do it means the are very quickly going to be out of missiles. I don’t know what the stock-pile of Iran looks like, but I do know that Iranian missiles launched >> Targets hit.
Based on numbers from Operation True Promise 2 in October ~200 missiles were launched, <50 hit their targets.
