    Why are they acting like this is some unprecedented thing. In a war you target the defenses then go for the objectives those defenses were protecting. Do they think the Iranians are so stupid they couldn’t figure that out?

      Because everyone these days is used to the USraeli style of warfare where you just target schools and hospitals and bridges.

      Because the US hubris led to a point where they literally believed no one would fight back. Venezuela fueled that psychosis too sadly.

    I’m missing the part where Iran bombs a school and kills over a hundred children.

    Oh right, that was Pedophile America,

    So Iran is targeting the military sites that attacked it, while the USA plans a massive post-election attack on civilian infrastructure in Iran? One of these countries is acting more evil than the other.

      I still haven’t forgotten what they did to their own protesting citizens.

      Let’s not start making comparisons because they both suck and it’s the Irani people who are the victims here.

        Yes, the Iranian regime is nasty to its citizens. This doesn’t justify the USA attacking civilian Iranian targets while Iran attacks military American targets.

          This doesn’t justify

          Where on earth in my comment did you read that?

          And “nasty” is telling someone they’re ugly. Killing 10.000 give or take a few protesters is mass murder.

          I’m not having this discussion.
