If every resistance group in the region doesn't take this opportunity to join Iran's attack it will be a huge disappointment
Looks like you got an answer, Israel is likely going to drag Iraq into the ongoing escalation against Iran. Stay safe over there
Of course, just saying why a response is taking so long. If they had planned for this in the way z poster described below, they would have been ready despite that but I guess they didn't do that for some reason
I totally agree, it's a huge shame. I can only imagine how they tried to justify it but to be sitting in your apartments after Israel already said they were gonna do this ?
I understand why you made the comparison being that it is Israel's line. I've mostly said what I wanted to about this as far as the framing of your initial analysis goes. I think Israel becoming an emboldened and rabid proxy doesn't mean their status as a proxy and a tool of western imperialism has waned and if, inshallah, they are destroyed tomorrow, it doesn't mean the ongoing imperialism in the region will surely be over.
I think it's mostly that they are having to reshuffle command structure while figuring out where and how they can retaliate since the means of doing so are being targeted en masse and many won't be operational because of it. Knowing who calls the shots and what is available to shoot is surely really challenging especially if Israel's strikes are ongoing.
My point is to have a material analysis based on data and your comparison of the Holocaust to decades of imperialism in West Asia against many groups of people including non Arabs is shallow. Since this is a forum for Marxists it seems like an important distinction
I think the statement lacks material analysis and should be better. It is tail wagging the dog analysis that lumps decades of fighting primarily led by NATO nations into a comparison of a specific genocide project against Jewish people. It just isn't a good comparison. It doesn't even include the non Arabs in West Asia who have also been killed in the series of events. There is a difference between the Holocaust and the imperialist domination in West Asia I can't believe I am arguing that here
Losing the majority of an entire religion's global population in 12 years is indeed different.
If two groups are fighting and one is double the size of the other, one could be entirely eliminated and still be the same amount of individuals lost on either side. That isn't what is happening in this situation, just using it as a simple example of why per capita statistics greatly shift the framing of the data.
Not saying that trauma justifies Zionism but there is a difference
Now the blue MAGAs have to be even more against it because Carlson is in favor.
