Obama Admin CIA director and Sec of Defense Leon Panetta accuses Israel of "terrorism" over Hezbollah pager attack.

Israel's (alleged) attack was entirely within int'l law. Not sure same can be said about some of the things done under his watch at CIA and DoD.

Panetta was always a wus.
Self defense is self defense and that includes preemptive whatnot.

But, I'm surprised you guys have not mentioned what happened to Iran's Central bank. You guys are slacking.

That would be off topic in this thread. But, mebbe you can start a thread. Or mebbe I will. But I think pagers will go off in all the central banks soon. I’ll wait for the big one.

So, are we, or are we not, still interested in "peace in the Middle East"? Because this thread seems to be glorifying war. A lot of chops being licked in here.

Nobody is glorifying war. Trump had peace deals in the Middle East. War is breaking out under Biden, or whoever is running the country. They’re licking their chops.
