How many capitals can Israel bomb in the space of a week? They must be running out of countries in range by now.

Israel is going for a domination victory? Don't they know razed capitals don't count.
You can't raze original capitals. (At least in Civ 5, not sure about others.)
Yeah but you can still bomb them down all the way to 1 pop
Is this WW3?
It's the concept of a world war.
Trump is a yuuge zionist
It'd be regional, for sure. I don't think Israel is going to pull the US into it, nor Iran pull Russia (mostly because they don't even have the power to fight a war on their own border). Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the rest are going to try to stay out of it as much as they can, but still contribute a little material support. I don't think it's going to be a global conflict.
Yep.
We're due.
As a species that got to be number 1, we have nothing left to express our dominating nature on except ourselves. You don't just evolve out of that in a couple hundred years—you gotta have a nature that is highly successful at doing what it does best deeply instilled. It seems every now and then we have to let it out. It's like masturbating to weird porn. We're ashamed after, say we'll never do it again, but over time the nature needs exercise.
It's just what we are. It's in our nature to kill each other if there's nothing left to dominate. We need it. The best you can do is reject it and try be a better person every day, and not hate yourself if that species number 1 nature comes out at times. Evolution is incredibly slow.
Edit: Sorry if no one wanted to hear that. And it's obviously a personal opinion.

I can't say it comes as a surprise but... so they did move forward with this.
I wonder how Iran will respond.
I mean, Iran already bombarded them, and this is Israel's response.
In response to....in response to... ad nauseum
Are you saying Israel should not retaliate against attacks against them? Let Iran and their proxies just kill their people?

See what I mean when I said ad nauseum?
No, I don't. And wtf are Israeli proxies? That sounds very much like the global Jewish conspiracy.
It is the Iranian regime and their terrorist proxies that attack Israel and want to genocide them. Since when have you all become so hot and bothered for Islamists? Just because you hate Israel does not mean you should suddenly become little jihadi mouthpieces.
Jesus christ, what a stretch. Please tell me you aren't seriously incapable of seeing how this will just result in more aggression from Iran and their terrorist buddies, and israel and their buddies (the US since it has to be spelled out to you). Being capable of seeing the consequences of this doesn't mean weren't hot and bothered for islamists or jihad mouthpieces lol.
This is you.
So, aside from all of your false equivalence... What are you proposing that isn't appeasement politics towards terrorists to solve this? Because if someone came and attacked you and your family, surely you would not let them just do that out of fear of constant retaliation, right?
Ffs. Its sad that you can't see how "their side" can use the same shitty argument. And it doesn't matter what I propose I'm not the one who can solve this millenia long conflict. You examples is why crime families keep attacking each other. And eye for an eye makes the world go blind bud.
Israel isn't a crime family, it's a recognized country of people who were already persecuted and genocided for all of history. Every country has a right to defend themselves against getting attacked. If Iran launches its proxies to attack Israel, then Israel is of course going to retaliate. What you're doing is spewing antisemitic propaganda. You're equating terrorists and terror regimes such as Iran with Israel. You're saying that both sides are the same and you're basically saying that Israel has no right to defend their country and their people. Regardless of what you think of the extend of the response of Israel in Gaza, or even the shitty policies regarding their settlers, you're still defending aggressors and blame victims.
You might as well cry about the allied forces bombing Nazi Germany, or the US bombing the IS.
And you saying that what I am saying is belittling the actual very real problem of anti semitism. Are you incapable of realizing that Iran is going to hit back? That's literally what I said to start this whole this. And then it's been strawman after strawman with you. Please show where i "defend" Iran? The issue I had with allies bombing the enemies there was the bombing of population centers with no care for civilians. That should he a problem for you too. Please stop strawmanning.
I literally told you how you're doing it in the comment you're replying to. Stop the bad faith shit.

Again, learn to fucking read because it is literally clear that it is.
Except you didn't. Talk about bad faith. And, if you could read you would see that I never said it wasn't a problem for you. I said it should be a problem for you. I'm not the one putting words in people's mouths.

Also you know funded Hamas terrorists and propaganda.
Just like Israel
So I guess we're doing that this weekend.
Enough of a reason to stand against Israel yet Harris?
Enough of a reason to stand against Israel yet Harris?
Or Trump.
The region is not safe under either of them as long as their is bipartisan support for Israel.
The anti-war candidate wins this election.
sorry to burst your bubble but you only have 2 choices
I choose Kodos.
You know they said that when Biden was running too.
They were wrong.
Who is that?
The candidate that has won a majority of elections since I think forever:
Vances' ex-gf.
And when you ask:
Who is that?
I have to ask if you are serious about wanting to win this election. Because the constant battering that "voters have no choice" is literally losing this election for Harris. You can either address their criticisms, or recognize that you, when making this false dichotomy, you are part of the reason why Harris is losing.
This argument is so fucking tired, and such an obvious failure, I can't believe any one still making it is making it in good faith. Any one relying on this trope is either an idiot or a liar.
How does that terrorist dick taste?
I didn't know "precise" was in the IDF vocabulary.
As far as I can tell they have great aim, they just don't care who is in the building they precisely targeted.
Why is Isreal bombing a sovereign nation? Do they think Palestinians are hiding there?
Iran launched at least 180 missiles into Israel on Tuesday, the latest in a series of rapidly escalating attacks between Israel and Iran and its Arab allies that threatens to push the Middle East closer to a regionwide war.
Precisely striking Schools and Hospitals and Homes! Kids are HAMAS! HEZBOLLAH! BAD!
