War, what is it good for?

I don't suppose you will give this article much credit, but I believe it. Until the so called peace loving muslims rise up against those amongst themselves that cause this violence, I wouldn't trust a single one, especially those in this country, including those that serve in our government. Especially those that serve in our government.

You're right, I don't give much cred to the article, because logistically, a "military command and control centre" would have at least some military vehicles parked outside, or in a motorpool. It would be easy for any government to see such vehicles parked outside or patrolling the perimeter of a consulate/embassy (even on google maps) and prove that it's not being used as an diplomatic mission. And that's all the idf would need to justify the strike. But notice how they didn't provide a shred of evidence?

Plus a foreign mission would be a dumb place to have a military control centre, since foreign dignitaries could pop in at any time.

Let's hope that's the extent of the tit-for-tat on this one. As the article says, "It's the first attack Iran has launched from its soil against Israel", so it's hopeful that there won't be much more if they aren't provoked.

Even Joe has had enough. Finally showing some backbone.

Biden says US won’t supply weapons for Israel to attack Rafah, in warning to ally

President Joe Biden said that he would not supply offensive weapons that Israel could use to launch an all-out assault on Rafah — the last major Hamas stronghold in Gaza — over concern for the well-being of the more than 1 million civilians sheltering there.
