US Erection 12 *AND* 16 *AND* 20 *AND* 22 *AND* 24

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

???

Bit of a non sequitur.

Israel blew up Iran's consulate in Damascus, in gross violation of the Geneva convention. Iran responded.

No nukes involved anywhere. :|

Hopefully it doesn't escalate any further.
Israel did not blow up the consulate in Damascus. There was an explosion in an anti building that killed several IRGC leaders.

Iran was empowered by the Obama nuclear agreement. That agreement was heavily curtailed by the Trump administration and then renewed by the Biden White House.

I'll wait on Mexico's retaliatory drone attack on Equador over the storming of the Mexican embassy in Quito.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Lol, you make it sound like it was a propane leak, not an airstrike.

No surprise who the terrorist sympathizers are.

Don't be silly. Nobody on this board sympathizes with terrorists.

IF Israel did this, twas arguably very legal indeed.

But hey, a civil war is raging in Syria, so who knows who blew up the embassy real gud.

Just one of the latest of thousands on explosions over the last few years...

Do you really think Israel won't respond to a direct attack from Iran involving

.. 200 drones, 30 cruise missiles, and 120 ballistic missiles?

BTW, how "legal" was THAT in your mind? :scowl:

Yeah, I say Israel attacks a coupla Iran's nuclear facilities and calls it a day...

I think being a Hamas foot soldier in a tunnel beneath Rafah would not be ideal in the coming days and weeks.

Oh, I definitely think they will retaliate. I was just hoping they wouldn't, to prevent this from spiralling out of hand.

Of course that wasn't exactly legal either, albeit they could claim it was retaliation for Israel's attack on their consulate in Damascus, which in itself must be considered an act of war.

Either way, Israel (assisted by among others the USA, Jordan, Turkey and the UAE) shot down 99% of the missiles, that according to Iran were only directed at military targets, and fired at night to minimize the risk of civilans being present.

The casualty count so far is 16 people killed at the consulate building in Damascus, including two civilians, and one person injured in Israel.

The wise thing would be for everyone to just walk away now.

Unfortunately that's not what I expect to happen. :(

This is exactly not what we need just a few weeks ahead of the Eurovision Song Contest, which is held in Malmö, Sweden, in May this year.

Now, we don't register religious affiliation in Sweden, but there are roughly 50,000 Muslims in Malmö, give or take, and Israel is participating in the ESC. Several other participating nations have asked that Israel should not be allowed to participate this year, in the midst of the war in Gaza, but the EBU (European Broadcasting Union) has decided that they can.

That there is still no cease fire in Gaza and that there now seems to be risk of the conflict spreading and involving more countries is bad news.

You can expect extensive demonstrations and street protests ahead of and during the Eurovision Song Contest.
I hope they can keep it civil. But again, that's what I hope. Not what I think will happen. :(

What part of that post did you not understand Per?

Also, Iran directly attacking Israel is approximately 3000 times worse/more-provocative/illegal.

(we don't go by body count in these matters)

"Hope" all you like, but c'mon pal, we know what must happen.

So do you regret allowing so many immigrants into your country yet, we tried to warn you.
