******** you'll believe anything you read on the internet.
let me attempt to explain to Ashli Babbitt TDS guy that asking a question -/- believing something, especially when you frame it in a way that makes it clear that the notion is not by definition factual.

the only thing worse than watching you pussies cry in different threads about your bad bunny safespaces is watching you attempt gotcha moments that the average third grader could navigate.

To be fair, I'm not sure Iran's new leader is alive either.

Seeing Taiwan saying there’s a large Chinese military presence than normal. People in the know, anything to it?

were you one of the guys who said Iran blew up the school? maybe that was Tonio.

Nope I questioned the number of kids being reported dead and said there was conflicting info but hope the Tonio joke made you laugh...stupid a s s comment but not surprised. My comments on the school bombings were mostly questioning the situation

The school bombing still has a lot of unknown facts...but carry on. You think the Iranians would care about bombing one of our schools if they had the ability? If you do your views are even more ridiculous than I thought. They'd love to take out everything American if they had the capabilty

You were liking all of the one guy’s rage posts calling @GDead_Tiger ’s links on the subject horseshit propaganda so it’s not a big leap

Guys this school thing is out of control. The USA bombed a girls school based on bad targeting data. It is awful and we should be sorry. It wasn’t intentional. Why is this so hard for everyone to agree on?

b/c it is a target point for some in this thread. And the fact he ends it with it must have been Tonio shows he is triggered. Ridiculous...

No one wants a school targeted. I agree with you no one on wither side should celebrate that

What’s not known? They bombed a school based on data more than 10 years old. Had no spotter on the ground to confirm the target was strategic.

We f@cked up. Why can’t you just admit that? It’s war, it unfortunately happens.

Your inability to be objective is at least as bad as those you accuse of the same thing.

I admitted just now no one wanted it to happen...that was not the goal. No other way to look at it...that we can agree on but you act like you know how it happened. You don't. It was a mistake and that's all that we know for fact

Is this is what was published in an official DoD report? Because I'm not aware such a report has been made public yet.

BTW, did Iran call out Hamas for murdering 2000+ Israelis on Oct 7?

You guys will come in here and accuse anyone posting anything unfriendly to the regime of being pOlItIcAl and then continuously obfuscate and make claims that are repeatedly born out to be incorrect and then try to deflect from that with “BUT OCTOBER 7!”

This is so tired. No one here supports the Iranian regime. Everyone here thinks they’re a net negative in the region. I know it’s difficult for some of you but it’s entirely possible to hold that belief while also questioning the pragmatism of the US being involved in this conflict, the administrations strategic grasp of their actual objectives and off-ramps, and believing firmly that killing kids is in fact a bad thing that the US military is unfortunately capable of.

“Derangement syndrome” isn’t questioning the official account and the propaganda morality. Derangement syndrome is contorting yourself into a grotesque parody of humanity in order to accommodate the bad actions and **** ups of your chosen political team.

He’s making Tonio jokes because you’re doing the thing you always do where you speak with this weird air of authority on topics like you coached a member of the joint chiefs in u10 flag football or something.

This x1000. Iran helped plan and facilitate it

It is being widely reported and multiple senators, like John Kennedy, are saying it’s true.

What does Hamas have anything to do with this? We are better than Iran, Hamas, and Isreal. We are the United States of America. We are the moral authority of the world.

And that was an awful attack on Isreal. No one is denying that. Has nothing to do with the USA.
46 Americans were killed and 12 Americans were taken hostage. Iran helped plan and fund it. They have plans to target the US. Even Gavin Newsom is worried about sleeper cells and drone attacks in CA. We have arrested Iranian agents for planned terror attacks in recent years. They tried to assassinate our president. They are closely allied with Russia and china.

Our president is closely allied with Russia.

I don’t think anyone is debating that Iran does not like the USA.

All we're saying is we don't know the facts. Was it actually us, or a set up? Of course, I think a setup is a stretch, but not out of the question. If it was us, was it because of bad data, or did we miss a legit nearby target? Did we accidently swap no-go coordinates for target? There's a lot to unpack and we can't exactly get access to the site at the moment.

It’s not a stretch to suspect a regime that killed 7k to 30k (depending on where you get your figures) of its own people last month might have bombed one of their own schools to garner sympathy.

Not saying that’s what happened, but I need to see proof that it didn’t happen.

It is a horrible situation.

What’s more likely

Iran bombed their own school?

or

Iran took a military facility and converted it to a school, right next to a military target hoping it would prevent direct action?

I’m leaning towards the latter.

I think yours is the more likely scenario, more likely perhaps even than a mistake related to outdated targeting data... Especially given that we have satellites that fly over that territory delivering high resolution imagery at will. But I digress. There's a lot we all still don't know. It's a terrible situation and I don't know why we keep pivoting back to this.

Most of @Braindead_Tiger ‘s posts are horseshit. He posted about the school bombing initially as if it were intentional. He said it was the “M.O.” of the Israelis to bomb schools.

95% of schools in Gaza have sustained damage and at least 400 have been targeted directly. He’s making a pretty fair assertion.

You’re never going to believe how Hamas came to control the Gaza Strip.
