So what Iran is just supposed to let Israel continue unprovoked attacks? Yeah that's a fucking stupid take.
Also the US was the invader during the Vietnam War so that's a bad example all around
When did I say that? All I want is for all belligerents to be held to the same standard. Show me the evidence that these missiles are falling on targets with strategic importance; show me that they're making efforts to not waste human lives. It's clear that Israel's attacks are not and they're rightly called out for it. Why is Iran above the same scrutiny?
Why is it a bad example? Does being the defender in a war make you immune to war crimes? It's indiscriminate killing of non combatants either way.
