Can someone explain why ukraine attaked iran.
An 2-hours old account engaging in whataboutism with a misleadingly framed question. What is this?
What's the charge?
Bombing a delicious Iranian target? This is Democrrrracy manifest.
.....get your hand off my penis
No mater how serious a subject or moment is, I will never not laugh when the words βGet your hands off my penisβ are uttered.
Are attacks against logistics supporting your aggressor not allowed? I suspect arms shipments from Iran to Russia are very much legitimate targets.
It's not like Iran have held back attacking fellow gulf states even outside the obvious US bases they host.
The way those things tend to be done is that arms shipments to the enemy are attacked when in the territory of the enemy or, at most, international waters.
The reason is pretty simple: it avoids escalating the war beyond control by getting more nations fully involved in the actual fight which would then pull in even more nations with a similar rationale that they support their enemy by sending them weapons.
If it is valid for Ukraine to attack Iran directly because it sells arms to their enemy, then it is equally valid for Russia to attack pretty much every European nation because they sell and even give arms to their enemy.
Activelly going to war with those who supporters one's enemy merelly with weapons is a Pandora's Box that's best left closed.
PS: Also keep in mind that Iran isn't quite breaking this - they're attacking American bases from which attacks on Iran are being launched which happen to be in the territory of a 3rd nation, the equivalent to Ukraine attacking Russian bases in Belarous used to attack Ukraine, which is perfectly valid (otherwise countries could just attack other countries with no consequences as long as they did it from the territory of a 3rd country) - they're not attacking countries which merely sold weapons to America.
They have also attacked civilian infrastructure as well as non-aligned shipping. They are not the angels you portray them to be.
Mate, next to both America and Russia, Iran are fucking angels - like Ukraine, they're the ones who were attacked by one of those two and are doing whatever it takes to push the attacker back.
Please stop. Iran's government is an authoritarian theocracy with, among other things, a very recent history of massacring and persecuting their own people for protesting said government. They're absolutely horrible and remain so despite fighting other states with horrible governments.
Can someone explain why Ukraine Isn't attacking Iran more?
We can only produce so many drones
Because iran isn't going to lose and expanding the war will only hurt ukraine and help russia
iran can't do shit, at worst they can fire a few missiles with questionable efficiency. What are they going to do, start supplying r*ssia?
That's what the trump cultists used to say about Iran. Do you think Ukrainians ports and other economical targets are more protected than American bases ?
Actually, yes they are due to them being far more ready, second distance matters a lot, third iran supports r*ssia with weapons and resources.
All facts shows that the war on iran is harming ukraine and helping russia. Use your goddamn mind. Thankfully after talks between iran and ukraine both side understood that escalation is bad.
I understand that they are an enemy, everything else is pretty words, iran backed down when their ships that supplied r*ssia were hit. Good for them.
You are so dumb. Defense systems that Ukraine need was sent to protect Israel because of the war, russia got sanctions relief because of the war. You claim to support ukraine while supporting actions that help russia, poor guy
You don't get it, do you? iran is the source of r*ssian terror attacks by shahed drones. They've made them and sold to m*scovia the whole production process. They were a real problem at the start, people literally feared the sound of scooters for the first year or so. Because there were no effective answer to them. So yes, iran fucked off and good for them, all hate to iran and their backwards cuntry.
