Does the US really want to play this game? 90% of Israel's water comes from desalination plants, and now we've given Iran the justification to strike back in a similar manner.

a bit weird how the beacon of democracy will bomb schoolchildren and water supplies for the population, but the regime terrorists are only striking military facilities and infrastructure so far ๐Ÿค”

beacon of democracy? when was that?

They should have put that phrase in quotation marks.

Just because the US calls themselves that doesn't make it true.

The US briefly tried out democracy during Reconstruction but the white terrorists quickly defeated that experiment.

We can already ascertain (I trust certain sources) that the US has likely lost more military personnel than the Iranians, to say nothing of the trade in production (including trade war limits making some hardware functionally irreplacable), cost, depletion of stockpiles, economic leverage of the strikes. They're really "smoking 'em while they've got 'em" since the Mossad network and Starlink strategy collapsed. Seems like they lost hope.

If anything this attack could be one last stab to slow the development of Iran, which is intruding into very high tech industries dominated by the US and western Europe, such as pharmaceuticals and even nuclear fusion in due time.

The west fears having to unleash the power of certified genius women (and men, but it's much more pronounced how their talents benefit Iranian industrial capacity and affect this war, they are a huge driver of the missile program) the way Iran and China have. Girlbossing and slaying is more about inflating the size of the high value service industry.

The future is bright, actually. Our horizons were limited. I think humanity will become something unrecognizable. One day all people will understand death on their own terms, without metaphor. Do not fear the genius women. Sexual selection is the reason we aren't scraping bugs out of tree bark. This will be even better.

And even weirder that EU condemns Iran's attacks and not USA's. Only Spain had some dignity, the rest are crap.

You mean there same country that vaporized two cities' worth of civilians?

Weak virtue signaling, real chuds know the firebombs were worse.

Yeah, firebombing of Japanese towns and cities was more atrocious given the majority of housing materials. As well easier for the USA to do at that time.

They had a satisfactory rehearsal in Dresden before that.
