which would be preferable to the torture and inhumanity they'd be subjected to BY HAMAS.  

That very well may be the case, Being a Hamas prisoner would likely be a fate worse than death

Israel has closed its airspace in anticipation of an Iranian drone attack which i think is already ongoing. I just walked inside.

Time for Israel to get serious. Destroy everything in site.

Fast and furious and just get it done. Unleash the Kraken.

Iran launched 150 missiles against Israel today.

Discovery of missing 14-year-old Israeli shepherd’s body sparks wave of violent settler attacks in West Bank:



The body of a missing Israeli teen shepherd was found in the West Bank Saturday morning, and officials are treating the killing as a terror attack.

Benjamin Achimeir, 14, was last seen leaving the settlement of Malachei Shalom early Friday, Israeli media reported. The sheep he was shepherding later returned without him.

His body was spotted by a drone on Saturday. The teen is believed to have been shot, but that report has not been confirmed.

The Israeli army has classified the killing as a “terrorist attack.” No one group immediately claimed responsibility for the murder.

Iran tells US to stay out of it.

https://redstate.com/bonchie/2024/04/13/iran-may-have-just-overplayed-its-hand-by-attacking-israel-n2172722

from the article: some other islamic countries aren't going to put their necks on the line for Iran.

So what happens if Israel and Iran engage in a more protracted war? From the jump, we know Israel isn't going to invade Iran nor does Iran have any ability to invade Israel. That means an air war is the only real possibility, and one that Israel would easily win. Iran's air force is multiple generations behind. We are talking about less than 200 very outdated fighters, with ancient F-14s and Mig-29s being the pinnacle of their technology. American-made F-35s and even older F-15s would have a field day. Does Iran want to engage in such a fight? I tend to doubt it given they know they'd lose everything they have. I bet they want their attack to be the end of this, but Israel may not give them a choice.

That's where Iran has likely overplayed its hand. The Islamic nation could now see many of its most important strategic sites hit, including its nuclear facilities. In return, they can only fling low-tech drones and missiles over at Israel, most of which will never make it through. The status quo of its proxy militias launching largely ineffective attacks will also continue.

Overall, though, Iran could be left significantly weakened after this, with other nations in the region looking to capitalize. This isn't World War III. It's not even a regional conflict at this point, and the combined air power of Israel, the United States, and the United Kingdom represents a huge technological advantage over anything Iran can put into the sky. The Islamic Republic has officially pushed too far to try to save face, and they'll now pay the price.


interesting piece....i guess we'll see.

Biden keeps saying "Don't. Don't ". That is a pretty tough declaration!
