Is this the same Iran was enriching uranium for the express purpose of building a nuclear bomb?

Is this the same Iran that was plotting a terrorist attack on a British base in Cyprus?

Is this the same Iran that send missiles against hospitals?

The same Iran which actually has a lot going people in Iran hoping the bombing of military facilities can somehow dethrone a hated Islamist regime?

Wtaf?

Then there's the pro Palestine group that vandalized those aircraft. Not military ones. The ones that were for delivering aid. To Palestine.

This.

the audacity of Netanyahu to stand outside of an Israeli hospital and complain about it having been bombed.

Yes, it really is despicable. Glad he knows that, shame he doesn’t see the parallels.

Absolutely this. The blatant hypocrisy.

Are they the ones on the RAF base? where did you see that were flying aid? . I only read on Sky News they were military planes Puma helicopters and RAF Typhoons. Maybe you were talking about a different incident.

The only incident I know of similar to that is the one at Brize Norton a couple of days back
..if that'd what is being referred to the two aircraft that were damaged:

  1. Were military...a version of the A330 airliner.
  1. Can carry cargo and passengers (so have been used to carry aid and also useful for evacuating people.
  1. Can do air to air refuelling but FWIW the system used for that function is not compatible at all with the system used by the Israeli's or the US Air Force.

I mention the last point because it seems to be an issue that has confused some people.

Why would anyone of sane mind in the western world want to support Iran. Hateful, backward regime. Wipe them out. I have Iranian friends and they are desperate for their once beautiful country to have an opportunity for change.

Because the hatred for Israel is so virulent in the West that people are willing to back Iran - a murderous Islamofascist dictatorship which is anti-LGBTQ and anti-women - rather than support it.

ACynicalDad · 22/06/2025 12:00

There are some really weird people in the UK, but because of our freedoms which the countries they support don’t have that can do what they like!

Can you explain how wanting a de escalation of violence and a negotiated solution is not supporting Israel? Why would wanting bombs and missiles to be fired be supporting Israel?

I agree with you. Anyone who allies with Israel, also gets ripped apart.

I don’t actually see supporting Israel’s government right now is supporting the Israeli people. It’s just making both Israel and the world a more dangerous place for everyone.

Were it not for the depraved actions of Hamas, we wouldn't be here talking about it, would we. I'm not sure what's hard to understand about that. Where were all you saviours before 7/10 if you felt that strongly about the situation in the region? I won't embarrass you by expecting you to give me a reasoned answer.

And if it weren't for the Israeli occupation and repression of the occupied territories, Hamas would not exist.

But then Israel only occupied those territories because of the 1967 war with its Arab neighbours

But those Arab states only fought Israel because it was brought into being in the first place, by external colonial powers and in the wake of the Holocaust

And the Holocaust was able to happen because the Nazis capitalised on Germany's defeat and punitive treatment in the First World War....

Don't you get it? War leads to war, it is not a permanent solution to anything, unless you are willing to destroy your adversary completely which means killing an astronomical number of innocent people.

Enjoy your bombing today, it is only ensuring the continuation of the Middle East conflicts and incentivising all sorts of people to go nuclear before they are bombed too.

LottieLovehandle · 22/06/2025 13:25

If only women were in charge I don’t think the world would like this. All these old men who will die soon anyway and want to feed their ego and create a “legacy”.

No, that was Israel (or Britain, or the USA...)

Possibly

No, that's also Israel (if you do mean "hospitals" plural).

Do you mean the slaughter of Muslims and Christians in Gaza and in Lebanon? The slaughter of Muslims (and possibly Christians too) in Syria? All recently bombed by Israel.
I don't want anyone to be bombed. Who does?

Wasn't it the bombings and atrocities carried out against ordinary civilians in WW2 that so horrified the world that it created international laws and defined war crimes within this to prevent it happening again?

But this is a thread about a demonstration protesting the bombing of Iran in London. If you care so much about other atrocities, please feel free to create a thread for them or join existing ones.

I think I will decline your request for posting elsewhere 😁
But do you not care about the persecuted Christians in the Middle East?
The bombing of Iran is now a global issue and asking those like yourself who seem very anti Israel rather than very anti persecution is going to happen.

I'm talking about the territories that Israel seized from its neighbours after victory in the 1967 war, Gaza the West Bank and Golan.

They were literally called the Occupied Territories.

..and way before that?

dreamingbohemian · 22/06/2025 15:31

Ottoman Syria?
The Mamluk Levant?
Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem?

You can go back as far as you want, it is historical fact that Israel occupied those territories in 1967 and that occupation was not legally recognised internationally.

You may think it's a legitimate occupation but under modern international law it is factually an occupation.

Well while Israel were getting on with developing, Palestine were plotting. More driven by hate for and destruction of Jews than their own progression.

Madcatdudette · 22/06/2025 16:10

Why are those marching for Palestine now marching for Iran? A country who have been dodgy from a West perspective since 1979. The same country that was responsible for a terror plot against the Israeli embassy last month.
I would like to know why anybody can defend Action Palestine’s hit on Brize Norton if they are UK based.
I wonder why there is always a refusal to acknowledge that the majority of Israel’s conflict history has been initiated by Arab attacks on Jews.

Leave Israel and its people alone is what has been seen as a good starting point for 80 odd years.

Awww angry face. What’s made you angry?
The fact Iran have been suppressing its women for decades?
The fact they are okay with allowing child marriage?
The fact Iran has been threatening Israel publicly for decades?
The fact Iran plotted to attack the Israeli embassy in London last month?

Ah cut the crap and just own your opinion

You couldn't give a shiny shite about Iranian women and their rights until it suits the Israeli agenda.

Argue about the issue and the right to nuclear weapons all day but the hypocrisy of caring about their rights when Palestinians women are seeing their children eat sand is bullshit.
