Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Has the red line been crossed yet? Are Palestine's allies, besides Hezbollah, just going to continue to twiddle their thumbs and talk about how they won't stand for Israeli war crimes while the continue to happen?
What can anyone do when the US has 2 carrier groups posted up in the Mediterranean? The unfortunate fact is, to fight back is suicide
Embargo 2.0
Iran, China and Russia all have next generation supersonic anti ship missiles that there is literally no viable defense against.
The carriers are sitting ducks. Parking them there is not the flex old man Biden thinks it is. I suspect at least one of those carriers will never leave the Mediterranean.
Iran is in the position to do something hilarious.
Iran could also field 250 motorboats each one packed with explosives like the Red Team in Millennium Challenge
God i hope
None of the leaders of neighboring countries want to get involved but I hope that popular pressure after this makes that position untenable
Yes
Turks are heading to a US base en masse, Jordanians gathering in huge numbers demanding the border be opened, Zionist Entity consulates set ablaze or surrounded in Iraq, Turkey, and Lebanon.
This might not be a red line for governments, but it sure seems to be one for many people. It might soon get to the point where Arab governments will have to choose between fighting the Zionist Entity or fighting their own people.
