    I hope the Iranian people do have a regime change, they deserve better. But not under a foreign invasion trying to force a change and install their own puppet

    We’ve seen how that playbook unfolds

    I think the best hope for Iranian revolution atm is that the heir of the shah gets enough support behind him for the military to ditch their support for the regime and back him instead. Once a leadership has lost their military backing, then it’s time for them to admit the game is up

    it could get very very messy in the intervening period though.

    Absolute nonsense. I’ve said nothing of the sort that all of the world’s problems are because of Israel That’s simply you projecting, because you will not accept any criticism of Israel.

    I was making the point that by bypassing congress and choosing to act on his own unstable decision making process, cajooled by a man intent on war to protect his own power base and placate some of the most ultra right wing nationalists, these two men have now made the world a far more dangerous place than it was.

    Do not forget that they have broken all sorts of international laws by attacking another sovereign country based on contradictions from their own intelligence that Iran was not producing nuclear weapons. But that’s par for the course from Netanyahu now isn’t it ? A man wanted for war crimes who acts with impunity, because he’s backed by billy big bollocks with his $$$$$ of weapons

    Yes Iran is a problem, its regime is a big problem. But this course of action does nothing to address that, it simply ups the ante for them and their backers to make life for western countries less secure and more at risk.

    There was a dialogue in place, remember that

    the old adage rings true here. Keep your friends close and your enemies even closer.

    dunno about specsavers but try reading the actual article might help

    And Unicef estimates that between 3,000 and 4,000 children in Gaza have had one or more limbs amputated. That small tract of earth is now home to more child amputees per inhabitant than anywhere else in the world.

    and even that is an estimate as most of the world won't have reliable figures

    Headline in the Guardian mate ... blame them if your focus is seriously more to do with the mathematical accuracy rather than being appalled by the unnecessary carnage inflicted on innocent kids ...

    I think you need a little bit more self-awareness.

    You routinely claim to have no respect or support for the Iranian regime, yet you singularly fail to direct even a fraction of the criticism you direct at Israel against said regime.

    As I pointed out the other day before your handbags with brb, in the space of seven minutes you posted that no one could defend Iran, and your very next post was a paragraph listing what you call 'context' about why Iran does what it does.

    You never offer even a fraction of such 'context' to Israel, even when it is blindingly obvious.

    I agree my flag is very firmly nailed to a particular mast, but at least I don't hide behind semantics, conjecture and obfuscation to make my opinion appear different.

    The more you write, the clearer the disparity between the way you view Israel and the way you view literally every other country in the world becomes abundantly clear.

    No matter how atrocious those countries are, you will rally to their defense, speculate unforeseen and unknowable consequences on their behalf, offer cautions from history and portents of the future, and - wherever possible - draw the line of causality firmly in Israel's direction.

    Maybe it's taken this recent escalation for me to see it, but it isn't fooling anyone anymore.
