Iran Raises Red Flag Of Revenge (kashmirobserver.net)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by Sulvor@hexbear.net to c/news@hexbear.net

Last time the flag appeared on the eve of Iran’s unprecedented missile and drone attack on Israel in April this year.

The flag has been raised for the sixth time in Iran’s history.

Rolling ever closer to a wider regional war doomjak

[-] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 61 points 3 months ago

This is a revolutionary and decolonial war that we can win. I support the struggle to eradicate Israel

[-] TillieNeuen@hexbear.net 44 points 3 months ago

On the one hand, I agree that someone has to stop Israel from continuing to genocide the Palestinians because they're not going to stop themselves. On the other hand, I have very little hope that a regional war will actually make things better

[-] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 53 points 3 months ago

Short term it will likely be worse, long term peace is only possible with the destruction of the genocidal ethnostate

the Nazi concentration camps only really became systematic death camps as the war took a turn for the worse for the Germans on the Eastern Front, before that they were primarily labor camps. Does this mean the Soviets should not have pushed into Germany and destroyed the Nazi state? Allow them to keep permanent labor camps of jews and communist dissidents? Historical justice demands victory and unconditional surrender of our enemies. Anything less is a failure of justice. We are not responsible for the reactionary nature of capitalists, they do that themselves.

how do you think israel is eradicated without a regional war?

[-] TillieNeuen@hexbear.net 20 points 3 months ago

They have nukes and I fully believe they're bloodthirsty enough to launch them.

[-] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 22 points 3 months ago

So? So because they have nukes we all have to sit by as the colonize and genocide forever? That's really the plan? Fuck them I would rather the world burn

[-] TillieNeuen@hexbear.net 30 points 3 months ago

Plan? I don't have a plan. I'm just a dummy on the internet, seeing death and destruction on the horizon for a whole lot of people. Again: doomjak

[-] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 24 points 3 months ago

Lots of wars, including decolonial and revolutionary ones, need to happen and when they start in earnest, need our full support not dooming woe is me stuff. The moment the US involves itself in this regional war we need to bring hell upon the state as a fifth column, prepare for that don't sit around dreading the future that is inevitable

I didn't know they had a revenge flag, that is so cool.

[-] Sulvor@hexbear.net 53 points 3 months ago

It’s honestly such a badass headline it feels a little sensationalist even though it’s just a plain fact

[-] CommCat@hexbear.net 46 points 3 months ago

They raised it when Soleimani was assasinated. In respone, Iran launched missiles at some US bases in Iraq. Wonder what will be the target this time?

[-] Kuori@hexbear.net 38 points 3 months ago

timmy-pray please god let iran turn the knesset into a molten crater

War with Israel is long overdue and needed. Unironically good for them to be wiped off the earth, it must happen

[-] Yor@hexbear.net 61 points 3 months ago

at this point it should be clear that zionists will never stop on their own

God if they launch the missiles in the next 3 hours I’m not going to get any sleep tonight so I hope they wait at least 4

[-] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 18 points 3 months ago

You’re good, they’ll wait till I’m just about to go to sleep

[-] GnastyGnuts@hexbear.net 43 points 3 months ago

Fingers crossed they over-deliver and don't just hype it up and then deliver a fart.

I mean the last time Iran raised this flag something significant did happen. Iran directly attacked Israel and landed several successful hits on military targets in Israel. The US was forced to help defend Israel and intercept drones and missiles.

[-] I_CAST_BEAM_OF_BATS_I_CAST_BOLT_OF_BATS@hexbear.net 26 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

the heaviest radar+air defense in the world, in addition to the US military immediately intercepting, and they still hit the site with missiles they have a shitton of

while it was reported on as hyper-sonic missiles, that's just in their final stage. it's not like Iran used some kind of glide weapon thing. they have a shitton of these missiles. didn't take many drones to get them through

You are wrong, if I explain why then I will be insulting the intelligence of everyone reading your comment

[-] D61@hexbear.net 38 points 3 months ago

Is this the how desperate the c/News com gets when its behind c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns? Risking a regional hot war with the potential of nukes going off just to get the comment count up?

[-] Sulvor@hexbear.net 35 points 3 months ago

They can’t keep getting away with it!

i have always been a flag-skeptical person

despite that i gotta admit "red flag of revenge" has a certain appeal

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 35 points 3 months ago

I should get a revenge flag...
