The Iranian mullah regime has been announcing its desire to destroy Israel daily and loudly for decades. โDeath to Israelโ is a signature slogan.
Israel has never announced any intention to destroy Iran and expel the people.
Thatโs kind of a fundamental difference.
Iran has been attacking Israel through its proxies for decades. Do you live under a rock?
Let's see, we have a regime that claims to be peaceful and defensive, which is actively commiting genocide, and a regime that calls for the death of the genocidal regime. Hmm, I wonder which of these is the bad guy, tough call...
You fucking clown
Yeah, okay, thanks buddy. Israelis don't seem so fond of their neighbours either.
Has it though? Daily? And surely you're not dumb enough to think the rhetoric used is anything but political theater? For Iranian leaders, saying death to Israel makes sense, since their main audience is their population and they need an enemy. For Israel, it's rational to stay quiet, since they want to associate with Western democracies.
They didn't announce much about Gaza in advance (or their expansion on the West Bank). And look what happened.
Whoo boy. Let's not start talking about the history of this conflict. Spoiler: no one will come out as a hero.
