US bombing schools is just as bad.

Even though I agree, the “whataboutism” doesn’t help their case if Iran wants to be viewed as the aggrieved or rally the world’s support against US/Israel.

Yeah I get that, just so frustrated with the US and Israel.

Same, but really at this point, all 3 parties suck. There’s no good guys; it’s 3 idiots throwing rocks and bystanders hoping not to get hit.

To not start it in the first place on made up lies lol. Time for the US to pack up and go home.

Did they aim for the school ? If that’s the case then it’s just as bad , but folks are too far gone into narrative wars that nuance doesn’t matter . For you someone running over a kid jumping into the road by mistake is the same as someone steering their car into the playground trying to kill children. US is 100% not “bombing schools” there is no such target or intent, ridiculous gaslighting.

Adopting a “move fast and break things” mentality and accidentally bombing a school full of children is absolutely inexcusable, just to be clear.

No one excusing anything, the comparison is just wrong that’s all , no one is saying it was a good thing or anything on those lines.

HashtagDadWatts Apr 1, 2026 +1
The comment you replied to says that bombing schools is bad. And your entire response to that was that they didn’t mean to so it actually could’ve been worse. Can you see how that could be read as making excuses?
1
No-Revolution3896 Apr 1, 2026 +1
No , I’ve replied to someone saying Iran attacking civilian targets non stop on purpose is similar to the US bombing a school at the start of the war , by mistake, evidence by the fact it happened once while dropping thousands of munitions.

HashtagDadWatts Apr 1, 2026 +1
When your comments consist only of excuses, you shouldn’t be surprised when people think you’re making excuses. To be clear, bombing a school full of children is inexcusable, and the disregard of the systems previously put in place to avoid such tragedies is equally inexcusable.

No-Revolution3896 Apr 1, 2026 +1
This is what I mean , you go into a thread about another (hundreds by now ) attack of Iran on their neighbors civilian infrastructure and somehow you drag the discussion to an obvious mistake by the Americans at the first day of war, so instead of staying on topic you resort to gaslighting me. Is there anything Iran can do that we won’t go back to this really sad incident that was a mistake and not intentional? Just say America bad Iran good so they can bomb Kuwait and be done with it as this is not normal discussion anymore.

HashtagDadWatts Apr 1, 2026 +2
At no point have I said “Iran good” or anything like it. But it’s noticeable that you’re so incensed by someone saying clearly that the bombing of a school full of children is inexcusable.

Obviously a country that started a war of aggression that violates international law, while also referencing christian endtime stories, wouldn't bomb a school full of non-christians with intent. (/s)

> US is 100% not “bombing schools” there is no such target or intent Yes they are. Several universities have been hit.

The Islamic Republic is responsible for that because they built a military building right next to the school, which is a war crime.

Lmao, how tf can you talk about that as a war crime given the US’s history with enhanced interrogation and made up justifications for illegal wars? F*** outta here

I'm not the US. I didn't commit any crimes. I can talk about whatever I want.

Thanks i like being evil. Also you yanks have lost all moral high ground when it comes to calling people evil. You are worse then they are at the moment. Yanks will have their place in history as the great betrayer and as a failed state. Also 15 day old account that hides their history. F****** lame you yank.

You don't speak for everyone and your comment is incredibly bigoted and offensive.

ringadingdingbaby Apr 1, 2026 +6
The USA literally told the troops they are on a mission from God. That's incredibly offensive to actually Christians, not the US christofascists.

LongLongMan_TM Apr 1, 2026 +6
Israel and US did and are still doing a lot worse. Where is the rage?

Ultra_Metal Apr 1, 2026 -18
No, they're not, which is why there is no rage. Most people do not believe the disinformation being spread about the US and Israel. Your PR campaign failed. Just give up.

Dark_World_Blues Apr 1, 2026 +2
Yeah, give them sometime and they will probably do more crimes.

No one defending the regime but USA/israel does not have any high ground here . None . Your argument is completely invalid giving USA is doing exactly word by word the same thing you claim iran is solely doing it ... Should've USA not started this we wouldn't be in this mess
8
Ultra_Metal Apr 1, 2026 +3
The US and Israel do have the high ground. They are the defending nations holding the regime accountable for Oct. 7 and all the other terrorist attacks they carried out for decades, starting with the 1979 hostage-taking in the US embassy.

yetanothrmate Apr 1, 2026 +1
By doing the exact same thing you claim the other side is doing ? You seriously dont see the ambiguity of your own statement? Are you 12 or the critical thinking is indeed lacking ? Oh i know how is tel-Aviv weather ?

Ultra_Metal Apr 1, 2026 -2
They are not doing the exact same thing. You have no idea what you're talking about. You are imagining things.

yetanothrmate Apr 1, 2026 +1
They do , usa funds by iran definition *terrorist* groups that seek regime change or terror state within iran Usa attacks civilian infrastructures the same way iran does Anything you claim iran does , usa/israel as done the same too They just branded to fit your perspective Again you= 0 critical thinking Edit : Tel-aviv baby blocked me . What a loser lmao

But... You just can't imagine a world where an Iranian Islamic state who sponsors jihadist terror by colonizinging Lebanon and Yemen and Palestine and who occupies Iran itself with a jihadist minority is considered terrorist. Even a bot could do that.

You have proven that Christianity is worse. You think you deserve the world but this maga Christianity is a toxic cloud on the world. I would much rather have them in the world then you yanks

barf_seller Apr 1, 2026 -2
"yanks" lol. You'd rather have terrorists lol
-2
a_wascally_wabbit Apr 1, 2026 +1
At this point yes I would because a terrorist is simply a freedom fighter under a different name. You yanks no longer stand for freedom you are just as bad if not worse with your Christian nationalism. Iran hasn't done anything yet you have betrayed peace talks, bombed schools and water infrastructure. You look like the terrorists, not them. F****** yanks.

After hitting a school it wouldn’t surprise me at all.

Significant_Fig_7581 Apr 1, 2026 +1
Yeah, I just hope this one didn't happen... life is so much easier when you don't care about news like I feel disgusted seeing some of this things and super confused as well let's just hope this one hasn't happened to those poor lives I can't imagine how sad their lives were and the end being like that i just can't 😢

False. The Islamic Republic started it on Oct. 7 by murdering, torturing, kidnapping and raping thousands of people including children.

The Islamic Republic started this war on Oct. 7. This war is justice for the victims of Oct. 7 and all the other victims of decades of terrorism and tyranny.

I'm no legal expert, but I would think airports are fair game in war.

Especially since Kuwait International is also Abdullah Al-Mubarak Air Base with Kuwaiti and US air force assets.
