Several loud explosions were heard in Iran's capital, Tehran, and the nearby Karaj city early on Saturday, semi-official Iranian media said.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A very small percentage of people have this nature... The problem is, because everyone else has a more docile and cooperative nature, the sociopaths are able to just trample them.

It's the concept of a world war.

I can't say it comes as a surprise but... so they did move forward with this.

I wonder how Iran will respond.

So I guess we're doing that this weekend.

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.
