Iranian attack hit water desalination plant in Kuwait

No, reporting posts is not authoritarian.

If it was then MN would discourage it rather than encourage it.

There are site rules to keep the site a (relatively) pleasant place to engage which is why they have rules around personal attacks, racism, homophobia and other unpleasant things.

Mn has always been moderated like that, if it’s not wanted then I suppose other sites / platforms will be freer to post whatever.

Yes, thankfully there is nobody here reporting posts etc. Cos that is authoritarian.

Good to see you have mellowed a bit from hitting desal plants is a war crime to could be.

No one is obliged to answer every question you ask @RedTagAlan and I observe that engaging with you often leads to a load more questions even though you often ignore direct questions yourself. MN is not an authoritarian regime where people can demand things of others, thank God.

Hitting oil facilities could potentially be a war crime, so could hitting water desalination plants of course. Iran have done both so I think could be sanctioned further after the war by those countries that disagree with how they have conducted themselves.

I am pretty sure hitting oil facilities is not a war crime.

By the way, did you think about that desalination plant legal conundrum.

Remember, I asked if you thought if it was legally black and white ?

Not at war with, no.

Bad enough to target civilian infrastructure of countries you are at war with, which US & Israel are also guilty of. Potential war crimes by all concerned.

Not at war with, but houses about 8.5k US troops in peacetime, and has a major US navy base. a command HQ no less. There is a US airfield too.

Now I am not 100% sure on this, but if Bahrain was host to an Iranian Navy HQ and an Iranian airfield, I am not sure they would declare "neutral country" and leave them alone.

This thread has become very difficult for me to scroll - so I'm just posting to try and clear the glitch

Iran continues to hit civilian infrastructure in countries they are not at war with.

As reported by Gulf News and other sources,

Two petrochemical and energy facilities in Bahrain were hit by Iranian drones early Sunday, sparking fires at operational units and storage tanks.

Gulf Petrochemical Industries Company (GPIC) confirmed that several of its units were affected. All fires have now been extinguished, and the situation is under control.

No casualties have been reported, while damage assessment teams are on site to evaluate the full impact.

Similarly, BAPCO Energies reported a fire at one of its storage facilities following a hostile drone strike. The fire was fully contained, with no injuries reported. Damages are under assessment.

They didn't. I did.

Well of course you’ll post that.

But no I was surprised to see it gone, happy days re the person who reported and mnhq deleting it.

Don’t let it get to you though, enjoy your evening.

Of course you didn't!

Interesting, I didn’t report that post.

Thanks to whoever did, I was thinking CITME board is… intense at times.

This thread is weird.

Of course DT is crAzY 🤪. Of course the IRCG are a cruel and repressive. Of course hitting civilian infrastructure is wrong for all sides.

I think we all agree on these points. I think this conversation gas run its course from my point of view.

Your post doesn’t get close to how I feel so stick with your views not trying to summarise mine.

So 'no' what? I'm not sure what you are answering there tbh.

Well you don’t reflect what I think so no.

I have to say that is certainly the impression I get from @EasternStandard whether she intends to or not her posts do read as using the suffering of the Iranian people to justify this war. I haven't seen any acknowledgement that this war is making things worse for Iranian people just the same we mustn't forget that people are being executed etc with no context as to how it is relevant to this war that is helping no one.

OK.

May I ask what you thought of Ageinglikegazpacho's post?

Sorry meant to quote your post @EasternStandard

Of course if it’s the radio or a paper, you can work out Instagram I’m sure.

Do you follow any international events on there? Just use the same strategy for finding what you want without a mner.
