Huh...

I doubt you Putin lovers would ever get it. Countries that enable proxies never get it either. Because they don't have the courage or conviction to fight their own battles. That's why some 70% of humanity now find themselves living under autocratic conditions. 

Of course you people imagine we live in one too so go figure.

Nope. They're just another bunch of arseholes in a world filled to the rim with arseholes.

Big Win For Hezbollah; Major Declaration By Saudi, 21 Arab Nations In Favour Of Lebanese Group | Watch (msn.com)

"The Arab League has announced it no longer considers Hezbollah a terrorist organization, reflecting a shift in regional priorities amid ongoing tensions between Israel and Hezbollah. This decision comes as the threat of a potential war looms, with Hezbollah actively engaging in hostilities against Israel. The Arab League's move indicates a significant change in stance, given Hezbollah's influence in Lebanon and the broader geopolitical landscape.  Big Win For Hezbollah; Major Declaration By Saudi, 21 Arab Nations In Favour Of Lebanese Group "

Is this pushing the middle east closer to a regional war?  This appears to be a major blow to Israel.  Will this embolden Hezbollah?

 

What is the difference between a terrorist organization and a non terrorist organization?

This is just a general reply which may be added to with additional information and/or fine-tuned.

I would say a terrorist organization is a group that attacks civilians for political or religious reasons. 

A non-terrorist organization would be a peaceful organization which does not commit unlawful acts or attack civilians.

I cannot think of a single institution with power that is not a terrorist organization, then. Can you think of an example?

One of those two entities doesn't support, condone, apologize for, or participate in terrorist activities. 

Were it multiple choice, the "non terrorist organization" would be my guess...

What people in the West especially their elected politicians don't realize is that the root of all these problems whether Hamas or Hezbollah is the Islamic Republic hated home and abroad. The West must get united and cut off the head of octopus and its legs in Gaza and Lebanon and Yemen will die too. 

Yeah, so let's die in another pointless war in the Middle East that's so important for people 10000km abroad. Let's spend another trillion on that stuff.

It worked so well in Afghanistan.

Why's it our problem? 

Maybe because we bring in an awful lot of people from that part of the world(excluding Israelis) and they often bring their hate with them.

Not that easy, there is a difference between an group or organization/ country that strictly attacks civilians soft targets to make a political statement...and one that kills civilians in the state of war unintentionally...so yes i can name hundreds of nations that are not terrorist organizations...

We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.

It worked so well becasue one side does not have to abide by the rules of war laid out by the Geneva convention, or have it's citizens screaming to treat them humanely...and then grow tired of the conflict and demand the return of our troops early before the job is done, and cut funding to a trickle......kind of like quitting in the 3 rd period and going home...

Every country in NATO, most other countries in the free world...the argument of one man's terrorist is another mans freedom fighter is a retarded assumption...If this was the case why do we have Human rights, of Geneva conventions, inter national laws....

All of these rules and policies were implemented to make war more civilized, like that is possiable....to spare the innocent as much pain as was possible... It is consider not civilized to intentional attack civilians for the sole purpose to create terror....i think the only exception to this is total war...then all bets are off, civilians become legitimate targets, in order to force their government into surrender...

Um...everyone knows about nuking Hiroshima, for example

Yes everyone knows , but that was total war, which change the rules a lot....in this case done to shorten the war, had this not been done what do you think the loss of allied lives would have been if this attack did not happen...and they had to attack the Japanese mainland...

This example could be an argument for both sides and i see your point...they are purposeful attacks on civilian population,to force a political group into surrendering .However the rules have changed since WWII, one can not wantonly bomb civilian population areas, unless there is a military target present...then all the conventions state is every precaution is to be made before military action is taken to limit civilian casualties...certain building or areas are off limits like churches, mosques, hospitals, schools etc...however those restriction can be dismissed if there is enemy operating in or around these places...

That being said Nuclear weapons are designed to attack civilian population centers...but if it gets that far nobody is going to care we will all be ash or dieing of radioactive poisoning...

Well in essence you just seem to be moving the goalposts. Sure the usa kills civilians but sometimes that cannot be avoided in war. 

 

Okay. So. Exactly like I said. I guess killing civilians isn't the key part of defining a 'terrorist' organization.

We have been twenty years in Afghanistan. It's not like we quit at the 3rd period. It's like we were still there when the game was ended a generation ago when Mario Lemieux was still playing.

There was no "job to be done". It was pointless; the Afghans truly supported the Talibans after all. It's their culture.

Now name me one Middle East intervention that turned out well in the last 40 years.

I have to write a book to answer this but in summary, Arabs are bunch of desert born camel riders with no history and no civilization, whereas Persians have 2500 years of history dominating half the world 2500 to 1500 years ago (the other half by Romans) for ten centuries. Cyrus brought in the very first charter of human rights 2500 years ago. Persians are originally Aryans (before being mixed with inferior invaders), whereas Arabs are Semitics. Persians have totally different culture and calendar and history and geography and celebrations like Noruz, Yalda and Tirdad. Persians speaking Farsi which is different with Arabic. 

The great culture of Iran, ladies and gentlemen.

Totally unlike we see anywhere else in the Middle East and in Muslim countries in general. Truly the superior race of the Middle East. Such honorary Aryans, such a superior race, ladies and gentlemen.

If you have read my posts you would realize that I am not advocating military invasion but rather military blockage of Islamic Republic. True, if some stupid ships violate blockage and carry Iranian oil then they must be torpedoed and sank but in general not a single shot has to be fired. No one on either side will die unless Iranian navy and air force intervene in which case the nuclear submarines must sink the ships and shoot down the planes but that would be their choice and stupidity to test or confront the  much superior western military.

Hamas and Hezbollah would go down a lot easier and possibly even surrender if Iran was dealt with first.

 

Nope. In fact that's been tried before.

The groups would continue just fine and would find other sources of funding and sponsors. They always have. And Iran has been "dealt with" in the past And unless you're going to occupy them forever they're going to rise back up again and be the same sort of problem.

It is a joke that you think somehow somebody could flip a switch in Iran would go away and Hezbollah and Hamas would follow the next day.
