israel is a peaceful country that can only and must defend itself and preemptively defend itself, therefore only its enemies can fuel arms races or cause an escalation in violence

there is a policy researcher here talking about her research on Lebanon, where her research question is “If Hezbollah’s policy position is to procure arms purely for defensive purposes, why has their stockpile of short, medium and possibly long range ballistic missiles increased since the 2006? If their goal is to deter Israel, shouldn’t they reduce the number and range of their weapons?”

"Israel has a right to defend itself", which means that any weapons that can strike Israel actually make the situation worse, and so the safest option for Lebanon is for Hezbollah to not have any weapons that threaten Israel, and therefore make Israel defend itself...by invading Lebanon.

For example, the airstrikes by Israel in Syria and Lebanon, were all self defence to prevent weapons that might threaten Israel from being transferred by Iran to Hezbollah. Those airstrikes might have been prevented if there were no weapons shipments. Iran endangered the people of Syria and Lebanon, and so they need to stand up to Hezbollah and Iran and tell them "no more!" to weapons that will cause Israel... to bomb them... defensively.

Do they even keep stocks of naval missiles in Kuwait? The navy doesn't have much of a presence there, afaik just shipping troops in and out through Camp Arifjan.

FuzzySlippers posted:

They could make it a bad day to be in a random Iranian hospital, but they aren't degrading the Iranian military significantly or unleashing some wave of destruction across the country. The US military is a paper tiger, but the navy is the most tissue papery part of it.

Its reasonable that Iran may fear getting nuked by the crazy loving Israelis but they don't need to fear yappy dog US bullshit.

Even degraded as it is the American navy is far more capable than the IDF. Iran has scores of military targets such as barracks that could be hit but it also has things like oil refineries and power stations that are vulnerable. Israel has historically made meaningful strikes within Iran so there is no reason to think America cannot.

well, there's Mohammed Al-Ahmad Kuwait Naval Base aka camp patriot (lol) which the us navy has used previously and has a continuous presence at. i think all they'd need to do would be ship some missiles up there from bahrain. personally, i think it's good that kuwait is refusing to cooperate with genocide
