Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

The economic cost of Tel Aviv's aggression keeps going up and up.

Snip:

Israel’s tourism industry, in particular, has recorded massive losses due to the broad cancellation of flights by international airlines.

Israel’s education sector will also be severely affected if the wait continues into September, as institutions will have to “maneuver within combat scenarios,” according to the Israeli broadcaster.

Iran waiting in perpetuity to destroy the Israeli economy galaxy-brain

I would say that it would be smart for Iran to just wait and constantly promise a counter-attack, but that would just invite more Israeli attacks on Iran ANYWAY.

There's an exactly correct amount of time to wait. Hopefully they get it right

as institutions will have to “maneuver within combat scenarios,”

Could someone explain this to me? Are they accusing their enemies of intending to behave like Israel?

[–] the_post_of_tom_joad@hexbear.net 23 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I was confused by this bit too. Other guess is streets/transportation to schools being shut down?

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 21 points 3 months ago (1 children)

(I was kidding; I was making fun of the idea that Israel thinks their enemies are as monstrous as they are and that they think Iran/Lebanon would strike a school)

[–] the_post_of_tom_joad@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago

Oh oops. Got it

They're so bad at being a colony that they somehow managed to completely fuck up their economy WHILE STEALING LAND AND RESOURCES FROM THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE.

How do you fuck that up.... HOW. DO. YOU. FUCK. THAT. UP.?

Many of them first rebelled because Napoleon set a puppet monarch (his cousin or nephew idr) instead of the "rightful ruler", despite the empire being in decline for quite a bit already. When they realized they could be independent states then they moved towards it

Yes also make sure to bookmark the actual Hezbollah website, central media, with your preferred translation if required. Don't rely on "open source intelligence". We are stronger than 1000 of those people

Hezbollah releases footage of an underground massive facility called “Imad [Mughniyeh] 4”

It is constructed inside a huge mountain. It stores large precision and non-precision missiles and rockets, in addition to hosting fighters, equipment, and commands & control center
