Israel is at War - General discussion (pt3)
Paul Catton replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
How many Palestinian hostages have been taken under the guise of an arrest being an "Administration Detainee" for decades. Held, without charge, and no legal recourse to be absolved. Free all the innocents on both sides. -
Classrooms in Louisiana Must All Display Ten Commandments

Regardless of any historical superficial need, it was then deemed for the incorporation as a backing into the subscription of the US$ determined as the traded world currency. Ooops, we no have BRICS. -
Classrooms in Louisiana Must All Display Ten Commandments

On July 11, 1955, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed H.R. 619 – a bill that required the inscription, “In God We Trust,” to appear on all paper and coin currency – into law. When the resolution was first introduced in the House by Representative Charles E. Bennett of Florida, he stated, “Nothing can be more certain than that our country was founded in a spiritual atmosphere and with a firm trust in God,” further adding that “While the sentiment of trust in God is universal and timeless, these particular four words ‘In God We Trust’ are indigenous to our country.” Same-same, but different. -
The Iranian response for the Israeli bombing of its "Diplomatic Premises" was launched and recorded "Universally" in real time was to enact an enabling response using a fraction of recorded armaments, this was followed by a salvo of cruise and ballistic missiles being hours later, testing the concept of the "Iron Dome" for protection. Iron dome was breached upon test, regardless of any inclusiveness from both the Saudi and Jordanian interventions employed.. Israel and its unconditional backer actually lost face regarding this foray.

Any use of a nuclear armament would be a nuclear holocaust within the region. All parties need to show maximum restraint. Apparently, backed by "Big Brother", shoot and kill your Palestinian neighbor you have a a bigger background to play in. I admit I have 24/7 access to "Al Jazeera" being piped in under auspices for a recognized "World News" to Freeview NZ. And I do find them to be the authority for reporting upon developments happening in real time.

I do not believe Iran would use them for any "first strike", and neither would North Korea (which is still at war but subject to to the July 27th - 1953 armistice agreement). Enola Gay springs to mind. Use of nuclear armaments as a "first strike" measure has only been used in history by the "USA" against an "Japan", Twice. Albeit, Japan at the time were then being beaten under conventional armaments and surrendering wasn't militarily optional. However back to today's reality, should you force either of these dystopian regimes into a corner for kill, why not go out with a bang! If Saddam Hussein had weapons of "Mass Destruction" which were the reported criteria for an invasion of Iraq, would he have been eventually found hiding out in a hole.

Thought I did. Any localized "nuclear explosion" decimating an immediate population will have further long term adverse effects to all within a radius from any expert guess. We have had had two nuclear bombs dropped by the USA whilst in a war footing on both Nagasaki and Hiroshima, whilst Japan were well and truly on the back foot. There have been testing of "Nuclear Armaments" that we know have been conducted. France was conducting them at Muroroa Atoll in the South Pacific until Greenpeace stepped in and thwarted the acivity. Bikini Atoll should also come to bear.

Israel cannot use any of a purported nuclear arsenal "it may hold" to resolve its domestic issues within its "Neighbourhood" boundaries, (read Middle East). To do so would expose many millions of persons to an excruciating slow death from radiation poisoning either N.S.E.W from the target site depending on mother nature and weather factors.

BREAKING NEWS! Iran potentially triggers World War 3
Paul Catton replied to george's topic in The War in Israel
How about this forum, gets back to the "reality of fact". The initial reporting had many "Israelis, being raped, pillaged, and beheaded, Babies cut from womb and thrown into a pyre. No real condemnation of 33,000 persons lives being vanquished. Let us now focus on Israel v Iran. instead -
BREAKING NEWS! Iran potentially triggers World War 3
Paul Catton replied to george's topic in The War in Israel
As the Iranian response (payback for the perceived violation of their Embassy/Consulate) unfolded in real time, Numerous drones were launched first, with a lengthy time (of many hours) for transit to any of their pre-programmed targets, signifying an alert to any interested parties (read Israel / USA). This was followed by a much later launch of both "cruise and ballistic" missiles being directed at "Military Targets". Testing the "Iron Dome" and interference by any Islamic neighbour was exposed. Iran concluded "Matter Closed". -
