Iran has told Israel through the UN that it will intervene if the country’s operations against Hamas in Gaza continue, a report has claimed.

Israel has warned 1.1 million people living in the north of the enclave to evacuate ahead of an expected ground operation in Gaza with the IDF planning to strike the territory from land, sea and air.

Iran’s involvement could be through a militant group from Syria or by backing Hezbollah to join the conflict, diplomatic sources told Axios.

Meanwhile, Iran’s foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said that Israel’s operations could cause fighting to expand to other areas of the Middle East which would cause Israel to suffer “a huge earthquake”, reported the Associated Press.

So you expect that at some point in the future of mankind, there will be a period with no active conflict and weapons snuggling? 😂 my sweet child...

I think snuggling weapons is weird but one of the best uses for them

[-] darki@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

My mad smuggling, but snuggling also works I guess 😎

There's always a lot of weapons snuggling going on in the US.

Elsewhere... It varies, but typically, not so much.

As soon as we can learn to share resources and land.

I wish... Archeology shows, that people have been killing people since before proper tribes where formed. Call me a pessimist, but i don't see a future where we truly learn to life peacefully.

Well I think of humanity as a "work in progress", improving over the ages, so my hopes are that we grow up out of killing each other instead of sharing resources and land.

[-] ToxicWaste@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Well, I certainly hope you are right

[-] CosmicCleric@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

You and me both.

From a Sci-Fi show about dyson spheres and habitats: "Where man goes, war will follow." Made me sad, because I guess it's true.
