The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps gave the final go-ahead last Monday in Beirut
Iranian security officials helped plan Hamas’s Saturday surprise attack on Israel and gave the green light for the assault at a meeting in Beirut last Monday, according to senior members of Hamas and Hezbollah, another Iran-backed militant group.
Officers of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had worked with Hamas since August to devise the air, land and sea incursions—the most significant breach of Israel’s borders since the 1973 Yom Kippur War—those people said.
Details of the operation were refined during several meetings in Beirut attended by IRGC officers and representatives of four Iran-backed militant groups, including Hamas, which holds power in Gaza, and Hezbollah, a Shiite militant group and political faction in Lebanon, they said.
As a millennial I’m excited to live through my like 5th WW3.
Seriously, every single local war is a fresh breeding ground for WW3 according to morons online
A guy bumped into me at the pub. I fear this could escalate to WW3.1+ PRO MAX
Sponsored by Pepsi.
As a GenX-er, I grew up with WW3 as a constant possibility. My third grade teacher showed us a TV movie about nuclear war that had me thinking every plane that flew overhead was a nuclear missile.
Maybe this is why GenX is the “whatever” generation. When you grow up thinking you’re going to die at any moment, you tend to shrug off a lot of stuff.
Doom-mongering. Climate change would still do more damage than WW3 unfortunately.
Let’s just wait for the Taiwan invasion.
It would be the perfect time for China to attack.
Tell me about it. Wars, financial collapses, housing crisis, mass inflation…
It hasn’t been great.
We’re sending a carrier strike group. This could be an enormous escalation.
They send those things everywhere. This isnt going to escalate much further, its just another regional skirmish that will die down in 1-2 news cycles
