    The British Defense Secretary John Healey says Iran launched two missiles toward Cyprus. Healey confirmed thousands of British troops are stationed in Cyprus, which also hosts significant IOF reserve bases, air defense, and intelligence infrastructure.

    ■ Cyprus has played a key logistical and military role for the IOF, US, and UK in carrying out the Gaza genocide.

    ■ Hezbollah’s martyred leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah warned Cyprus in 2024, “[Israel believes] that if their own airports are targeted, they will use Cypriot airports and facilities. Therefore, the Cypriot government must understand that opening Cypriot airports and bases for war against Lebanon will make Cyprus an enemy of the war.”

    ■ Now, Iran is striking back at Cyprus for their role in carrying out Western aggression against the region.

    I will add that AryJeay & EyesOnSouth1 are a lot more reliable than some of the other random accounts out there I’m not posting any sources I haven’t got a read on prior to this year. (They’re not doomers but they kind of Prigozhin post at times if you catch my drift)

    Really? How many times do you think you can hit people with “we are going to do things to you that have never been done before” without using nukes or something?

    🇮🇷| Iran’s Expediency Discernment Council elected Ayatollah Alireza Arafi as the jurist member of the Guardian Council in the Leadership Council.

    The members of the Leadership Council have been completed: Pezeshkian, Ejei, Arafi.

    According to the Constitution, the President, Head of the Judiciary, and a Guardian Council jurist selected by the Expediency Discernment Council form the Leadership Council until a new leader is appointed by the Assembly of Experts.

    Israel intentionally puts military targets inside densely populated civilian areas.

    Mossad, their intelligence agency, is one example…

    When you hear Israel complaining that Iran has killed civilians, just know that it’s because Israel intentionally uses Israelis as human shields.

      They failed to consider the lack of humanity in settler colonialists, no crime against those people could make me shudder.

        I don’t support killing civilians. I’m just pointing out the fact that Israel intentionally has military infrastructure in the middle of densely populated areas.

            As an example, in the USA where I live.

            I don’t support racists who use their first amendment protections from the USA constitution to say dumb, stupid shit.

            But I also don’t support killing them.

            Please don’t support murder of civilians, even if they are dumb, racist, antisemitic, mother fuckers (as the Israeli settlers are in the West Bank).

            I do feel your sentiments though. Israeli civilians are not looking their best on the world stage at the moment.

            If you need someone to direct your ire at, look to politicians who support the Israeli government you can work to vote out of office.

              You fundamentally misunderstand Israel. It’s a settler colonial expansionist state. Every individual who, after witnessing the genocide over the past 3 years, hasn’t yet left, is an occupier.

              The end goal isn’t reforming Israel, it’s the complete dismantling of the state so the land can be returned to its rightful people: the Palestinians.

              To that end, there’s going to be no “let’s make sure Israeli feelings aren’t hurt”. This is war. Palestinians have been living under it for a century. There’s no place for pearl clutching

    Please reserve no sympathy for the enfranchised part of the population in the gulf monarchies. They empathize with the Israelis for a reason.

      Im jewish and fully agree. Israel has done more harm to the Jewish diaspora than nearly anything else in modern history. I pray that the innocent are spared but there are exceedingly few innocents there.

          Their hacker groups were actually collecting info from conscientious objectors a few weeks ago. As in literally offering to spare their lives.

        Why do women get a pass? They are just as culpable as members of the IDF or supporting the genocide. Lacking a dick doesn’t give you a pass.
