      This website is completely deluded. Every thread on this topic I see people (I’m assuming tankies and/or actual Hamas supporters) fantasizing about Iran destroying Israel with is… just laughable from an objective PoV.

      I despise the Israeli government but regardless of my feelings towards them, their military is so much more advanced than Iran’s, it’s not even comparable. And they have the backstop of a US carrier group, in case something does go wrong.

      Unfortunately it’s all feelings and no facts on this website. Makes it really hard to actually engage with people.

        All empires eventually collapse, and an empire is like a large cake, most easily diminished at the edges. Israel will fall sooner or later, like the Crusader states and like French colonization in Algeria. It took 198 years for the Crusader states to fall, 132 years for Algeria to be liberated from brutal French colonialism. We may all be long dead when it happens but it will happen.

        You fail to realize all of the countries Israel has been attacking working together, like how Germany fell. It’s just a matter of time.

        Anyways. You’re free to leave.

          Oh sure, Iran is super popular in the region. I’m sure all their allies will be riding to their defense any day now.

        Look man, people just want to experience a little optimism and fantasize about good things happening in the world. We don’t care if it is realistic or not. It keeps hope alive.

        Better than being a hopeless doomer about everything.

          a little optimism and fantasize about good things happening in the world.

          Well if the dictatorship is overthrown in Iran, that would be fantastically great. If Israel also gets rid of its terrible PM, that would be good too. Maybe both the people of Iran and Israel can both come out winners.

        I don’t believe anyone is saying Iran is capable of doing it, just that it’d be a good day when it finally does happen.

        Israel has all the best toys from their sugar-daddy America. Of course a handful of out-dated Iranian drones won’t do shit.

          In the last 24 hours I had the pleasure of interacting with multiple users who are 100% sure Iran is stronger than Israel.
