    How does killing little girls take back a country?

      My understanding is that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is not a little girl, does this help?

        But then why were the 80+ elementary school girls killed as well?

          Because a missile fell short of a nearby military base

            Huh, was it ran by their AI autonomous drones? Sounds like a pretty shitty mistake that the military doesn’t often make when doing their first target to start a war.>

            Because a missile fell short of a nearby military base

            This sounds like a lie. They can target a garbage can if they want.

                Wut?

                I hear you argue that a superior military, even from a hostile nation, would be in the right to a) kill the president, b) not worry about civilian casualties.

                The US is currently disappearing people ln the streets, establishing concentration camps and performing extrajudicial killings.

                Does this mean China should go for killing Trump and go through schools and churches to do that?

              They can target a garbage can if they want.

              There is an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps base in the same city.

              edit: reports now suggesting the barracks is literally right next door

              I guess Mossad felt extra cruel today, they just couldn’t help but waste a multi-million dollar missile on a completely irrelevant target that does nothing for them and generates bad press
