Agreed, Doug. I've stopped reading a lot of right-wing sites now because they seem to thrive on doom porn. Things seem bleak sometimes, but there is still a lot of goodness in the world. And at the end of the day, there is God.
Also, claiming Iran was behind the attack by Hamas and thus needs to be punished puts NATO, the EU and the US in the same position in the eyes of Russia.
Worse yet, I fear Israel could be walking into a trap in Gaza as there are a lot of high tech weapons out there from Afghanistan and Ukraine and deadly drones from Iran; and we see how vulnerable heavy armor is from what is happening in Ukraine (from both sides).
Since the US was clearly behind the coup in Ukraine in 2014 and a reported (and ignored by the “press”) 14,000 ethnic Russians killed in Donbas and other areas of eastern Ukraine from 2014 to 2022, and Putin’s response was ubiquitously labeled an unprovoked invasion, will these same people call an invasion of Gaza an unprovoked attack or will they once again prove themselves total hypocrites?
Yep. As L:enin so succinctly said, "Who? Whom?" Everything to the Left is about power, politics and top down responses to every problem whether it's male-female relationships or foreign policy.
Cutting off water and vital supplies to 2m people. Way to go, Israel! They will blow any good will they gained after the horrific Hamas attacks and create a whole new generation of radical terrorists/freedom fighters.
I wondered about that. The article I linked states: "The explosives in this bomb are under 700 kilograms." I searched again and found Forbes saying that it is 1500 kg. Tx.
More likely to just tear me a new A hole & bury me at the same time. I saw FAB 1000 concussion waves across a treed valley that looked like old nuke test films.
Mark, why are you covering this? Ukraine is so yesterday. Do try and keep up with the current thing!
Hey S'21! Thanks for a little breath of humorous air. My best regards! (WrH)
One of God's greatest gifts to humanity, Wayne.

US attack on Israel?
FYI - FAB 1500 is "1500 kilograms", equalling roughly 3200 pounds. The "little" FAB 250 is roughly 550 pounds.

I blame it on the "reporters/salesmen" self induced fog of war, facts are always optional.
The actual weight of explosives in FAB 1500 is 675 kgs, aka 1486 lb.
About as clear as the crater it creates..💥🕳🪦🪦🪦...
Thank you for you sub mate. Just thought I'd put the hell raiser in proper perspective, it's like
getting hit by x6 500lb, with a 200 lb tossed in for bad luck.

Correct. Russians use the metric system, they don't reference their descriptive names on lbs.
It's hard not to be conspiratorial these days, isn't it?
Never a dull moment.
