Arab/Israeli conflict between Syria, Palestine & Israel

[MerchantOfEnnis]

So with Iran getting ready to attack Israel, how will our local pro-Palestine folk react?

Will they welcome Irans actions, even though it has nothing to do with Palestine?

My enemy's enemy's is my friend, etc.

It'll be interesting to see just how much of the pro Palestine love is rooted in anti Israeli sentiment.

It has already set a bad precedent, did you hear what happened in Latin America? Ecuador military busted into Mexican embassy where the former Vice President was seeking asylum and took him, breach of international law and everyone down there is outraged.

Nonsense the precedent was set when your buddies bombed the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and the Embassy in Baghdad last December.

Didn't NATO bomb the Chinese embassy in Belgrade during the Yugoslav wars?

So you admit the precedent wasn't set by the bombing of Iranian embassy, fair play for seeing the error of your ways.

As you like whataboutery, what about the Iranians who took over the US embassy in Tehran in twenty years before that?

Some people seem to be confused what the difference is when a Country's Government and Armed Forces attacks an Embassy as opposed to when individuals/terrorists attack one.

Let's suppose the IRA bombed the British Embassy, who would you blame? the IRA or the Irish Government.

An Embassy is considered to be part of it's Country in the host Nation so Israel deliberately bombing the Iranian Embassy would be considered an act of war and Iran is perfectly justified to respond, but like all these "International Laws" and "UN Rules" they only apply to the US and it's vassals.

I'd say Israel are good with that as well considering Iran are financing and arming the terrorists attacking them. You might make a separation between Iran and terrorists in the middle east but that isn't the case.
By the way, loving the new you keeping away from the Russia thread.

Which side will Russia take in this little melee?
