Middle East Conflict

[robbieh]

Very strange for Iran to target Qatar, they have good relations. Even if it’s a direct attack on the US base, it’s still within Qatar sovereignty.

Perhaps Qatar shouldn't be hosting US bases.
Qatar and the UAE and the Saudis have been bought by the US so that they'll be nice to little Israel

 

[The blue phantom]

Well obviously the US by doing what they did have declared war on Iran and therefore Iran's response is war.

I think some posters on here thought Iran would just take the pummelling off the Americans and do fuckall.

All this because of Netanyahu and the terriost cunts in his Government.

For now until Russia nukes us they despise us with a passion

They fecked off when a few fishermen got angry
I’m sure we’ll be fine

 

[Vic]

So is Iran now a terrorist state for firing missiles in to Qatar? Or is it simply a good old fashioned act of war.

Why exactly would that be classed as terrorism?

 

[Giovinco]

Look if China had military bases in Belgium, France and Holland and had just blown up a nuclear power station in the UK how would you expect us to act.

Cower in a corner or come out all guns blazing, which is what Iran appears to be doing.

Yeh but presumably the current regime want to stay in power.

Think it’s about saving face,

I liked it when you danced for me.

I think I'll go with Peter Ustinov's definition.

War is what the rich do to the weak and terrorism is what the weak do to the powerful.

He wasn’t entirely wrong!

I’m sorry it was a dud.

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Times like these make me happy to be in a neutral country.

Do you live in Pyongyang?

 

[Lowtower]

Don't worry, we will have a world leading air defence system in place

Planned in advance with Qatar notified so the base could be evacuated.

 

[ganganvince]

Going to kick off big time now,wouldn’t be surprised even more countries get dragged into this now how long till we have ww3

No as long as no Americans have been injured should de escalate now.

They need the protection from the US.

Sky News are loving it

Thats all that matters really.

Some Qatar folk are out in the street filming it like its bonfire night.

Everyones having a lovely time.

Yep it's been coming all day, most of the MSM has been hinting at it all day, seems to be the new war thing telling the other country your going to bomb them, Both Israel and Iran are putting out warnings before they launch any missiles and it was heavily reported about America planning to bomb Iran, so wouldn't surprise me if they told Iran they were going to do it.
The silence of both china and Russia is troublesome, if they both decide to back Iran then it's time to stock up on pasta and bog roll

Russia have some out in support of Iran. Not sure words of condemnation and best wishes are going to do Iran any good.

Russia's in no position to back anyone right now, and China are more than happy to just sit back and watch. Neither will be getting involved on Iran's behalf.

 

[St.Pauli support]

Cautious symbolic response by Iran against very well AD protected bases is a deescalating sign. Same number of missiles/bombs used as US attack.

I don't quite understand the hysteria. But some like to have more entertainment when footy isn't good enough...
