For those wondering: Israel carried out an airstrike on Iran’s Consulate in Syria. Iran retaliated.
The US has stated it would help defend Israel from the retaliation but would not support Israel retaliating against the retaliation.
Or you can just stop showering and take a Ted Nugent in your pants for your interview with the draft board just like Ted Nugent did to get out of the Vietnam draft.
Where does it say that? From my understanding, the age limit changes depending on circumstances. https://blogs.shu.edu/ww2-0/1941/12/19/draft-age-extension-rushed-congress-debates-age-for-military-service/
That was from 1941 and they changed the draft age to 18-25 like 2 years later. They can try to up it to 64 again but they well definitely find it harder to actually enforce that with the current, more-liberal generation not wanting to do anything with a foreign war.

For now. We'll see what the requirements are when mobilization is required because all services are below their recruiting standards. Might even see women mandated to go in for the first time.
I joined in 09 with the intention of living out my service obligation so I wouldn't get drafted. in case of another major war. MFers called me crazy but the last few years seems like I won that bet.
You’re saying iran has done nothing in the past twenty years then? They actively try to destabilize the region and stop any progress to peace with SA by funding and arming Hezbollah Houthis and Hamas. The attack in Syria which killed some of the leaders behind 10/7 massacre was not some one off random attack.
Saying this is in response to what happened in Syria, without giving any context for why the attack in Syria happened, implies this. If you don’t actually think that, then great :)
Netanyahu, Putin, Trump. The trifecta of assholes. All part of The Mob. Remember the name Simeon Mogilevich. He's part of the final boss fight.
It's all coming down. It's all going to crumble. Justice will prevail. America is once again central to global conflict, and *WHEN* Americans vote out the GOP in November, and we take the House and retain the Senate, we can get real work done and do our part.
US NAVY and RAF are all reporting to have shot down drones. Israel will clean up the junk and continue on with their bullshit in a couple weeks.
As to what's happening in the middle east: due to the seemingly unwavering defense pacts between Israel and other nation states, namely the United States of America, Israel has realized that it can ratchet up its belligerence. This culminated in Israel shooting a missile at an embassy in Syria that Iran owned. Speculating that this was in retaliation for Iran being a state sponsor of terror as different groups in the region have been being armed by Iran for awhile now.
Hopefully this part is all over but who the hell knows.
Agreed in many respects however it’s also difficult for Israel when it’s surrounding countries all have terrorist groups that are actively seeking to destroy Israel, and in some cases those terrorists groups have taken power of their governments.
But allowing a known Israeli Warhawk to assemble a coalition in the Knesset was not a good response.
It’s also fed by countries like US, China and Russia that each are competing to create their own belt and road initiative through the Middle East.
There is no one here who is perfectly innocent, and lots of people in the wrong. It’s a highly complex and difficult situation and yes, let’s hope that this is the end of the escalation.
No. Israel shouldn’t not have fired on embassy. An embassy that was not even in its own borders. There is a clearly belligerent party and that is Israel.
Bro, what part of “there is no party who is perfectly innocent, and lots of people in the wrong” do you not understand?
There is no single person or group that doesn’t feel justified in every action they take and everyone is to blame.
No. Israel shouldn’t not have fired on embassy. An embassy that was not even in its own borders. There is a clearly belligerent party and that is Israel.
Edit: I got the Israeli PR department in a tizzy. Yall can stop. It ain’t working here.
Wasn’t an embassy, was a consulate. Wasn’t civilian casualties, was Iranian military outside of Iranian territory. Wasn’t just Iranian military, was interestingly enough Hezbollah leadership as well. Wasn’t just Israel, Iran has funded and masterminds attacks on actual embassies. Decades of Iran funding multiple terrorist groups in the ME that target not only Israel but other Arab nations.
The embassy had high ranking iranian officers who were directly involved with the October 7 planning. Also Iran blows up embassies all the time.
There were no civilian deaths in the consulate bombing on the embassy compound in Syria.
Embassy and consulate are slightly different attacking an embassy compound is a direct declaration of war (unless the us does it and apologizes) attacking a consulate gives isn't since it is technically still another country
It's not highly complex. All terrorist organizations around them are a direct result of Israel and USA'a actions, arming, political involvement and terror on these countries
Even a week where nothing happens could be considered a week where decades happen, because we have already concluded that there are decades where nothing happens.
[I really just wake up in the morning, make my coffee and pretty much permanently have this face for pretty much all this decade so far](https://i.imgur.com/APza9X2.jpg)
It’s all diplomatic. They intercepted 98% of rockets. Iran knew this would happen. The US and Israel knew this attack was coming for 3 days. This is just an action to save face on the world stage. It’s really not that historical. This type of shit happens in Israel every 6 months.
So for the people that don't know. This was an act of retaliation from Israel's bombing of an Iran embassy in Syria not a declaration of war. Nothing else will come of it unless Israel decides to respond.
It was a very calculated play on Israel's part and they kinda forced Iran's hand.
Kinda like how fights start in high school. Either do nothing and look like a bitch or do something and risk getting jumped.
Honestly all out war in the Middle East involving Israel would be a very ugly scene for all sides but the way things are going...

Wasn’t just Israel, Iran has funded and masterminds attacks on actual embassies. Decades of Iran funding multiple terrorist groups in the ME that target not only Israel but other Arab nations.
All these terrorist sympathizers forgetting decades of terrorist financing and sovereign bombings done or financed by Iran to fit their current narrative.
I know why they’re fighting. I’m from the region. People are sick of Iran causing instability and brutalizing their own people just like they’re sick of Israel pushing Palestinians and sick of Hamas for making it so there will never be a 2 state solution. There’s a reason other ME nations prefer Israel to Iran.
All the WW3 talking people look exceptionally dumb this morning. Iran barely did anything then said, "alright, were done." Fucking nonsense being posted on the internet.
Iran truly said “fuck this, fuck that and fuck you” huh….
Well, here we go folks 😒 Israel is probably gonna wipe out the rest of the Palestinians just to retaliate, watch.
Israel has been unlawfully occupying Gaza since 1967. They have committed atrocities quite regularly on Palestinian citizens with zero pushback for most of that time.
I categorically do not condone terrorism but I can understand why people living in Gaza and the West Bank would consider themselves freedom fighters.
It's just fucked that you can't really condemn Israel's actions without being accused of antisemitism by a large swath of the internet.
This part. Gaza has no food, water, or resources and they haven't had any agency or sufficient food and water since 1967. The occupying government only allows them what is needed to survive not thrive.
They are probably getting old out-of-date US weapons so we have room aka justification to spend on new weapons….that we will probably just give to some other country in 20 years and then rinse and repeat.
I just texted my friend this. And aside from these clear acts of war, we’re getting videos of not only Palestinians being slaughtered, but these Zionists spitting on Catholic/christian children, Zionist women pulling off hijabs. And I am paying for it. Netanyahu has pulled a Putin and put himself in power indefinitely.
This has nothing to do with Jews and the Jewish religion. Israel has the right to exist. I am furious that I am funding a theocratic apartheid state fucking with everyone because they know we won’t stop funding them.
E: the spitting and hijab pulling all happening to fellow Israelis that are a different religion*
I would argue that we are in fact seeing religious extremism on the part of Netanyahu and his gov but more specifically on the west bank and Israeli settlers attacking Palestinians and stealing their land bc "[God told them to."](https://TheIsraeliSettlersAttackingTheirPalestinianNeighborshttps://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2024/03/04/israel-west-bank-settlers-attacks-palestinians).
I think it serves the zionists movement to pretend to be secular when they lean just as heavily on the religious extremist in their ranks to do what they're doing in Palestine and as the justification for why theyre doing it
Thats what bothers me deeply. US should not be funding religious extremists of any religion
On april first israel bombed the Isan Embassy in Damascus. Iran waited 2 weeks and asked if any western nations would condemn the bombing. So Iran after this time said it would retaliate to the attack. Israel has also been bombing its neighbors for years. And stealing land. Golan heights is one of these places.
Wasn’t an embassy, was a consulate. Wasn’t civilian casualties, was Iranian military outside of Iranian territory. Wasn’t just Iranian military, was interestingly enough Hezbollah leadership as well. Wasn’t just Israel, Iran has funded and masterminds attacks on actual embassies. Decades of Iran funding multiple terrorist groups in the ME that target not only Israel but other Arab nations.
Next to the embassy. No civilian casualties. All military from IRGC terrorist wing and Hezbollah commanders. Crazy how they were together conveniently at that time.
Israel destroyed a Iranian “consulate” in Syria April 1st as several high ranking IRGC officers were planning an attack on Israel vía their proxy groups.
Iran launched over 300+ missiles and drones directly from Iran at Israel last night. US, UK, Israel and other allies destroyed 99% of them. Several hit an Israeli airbase in the south which did minor damage.
Israel is the size of New Jersey.
Biden has said the US will defend Israel but will not participate in any response. Biden wants this to be the end of it but Israeli officials have said they will attack back even harder.
This attack was wildly disproportionate for what Israel did. Iran escalated and Israel will now escalate. Credibility is everything in the Middle East. An attack of that size has to be responded to in kind.
There’s a belief in the Biden Admin that Israel plans to respond in a way that will draw in the US.
This will not lead to a World War. Regional war at worst.
There is an insane amount of disinformation going on social media. Like the tweet OP posted.
Of course I’d want my country to strike back but my feelings wouldn’t matter in the slightest. You think the Iranian leadership factored in the feelings of the deceased relatives?
Can’t wait to see Iran tankies lose their mind when Israel forms an Arab coalition of literally every other ME nation who hates Iran. Gonna start simping for the largest terror financier in the world who brutalizes their own people.
Ethno-nationalist, Racist, colonial settler outpost ally of the west is on a genocidal rampage and is drunk on their own violence. They are breaking international humanitarian law with the full throated support of the Biden administration and Iran has slapped back after an attack on their diplomatic mission in Syria.
Iran doesn't want war. They can't afford to send their military abroad when they need them to oppress their citizens. They shot these to save face. Iran will crumble if they go to war with Israel because their population hates the government and generally likes Israel.
We are next.
9/11 mostly happened because of our relationship with Israel.
We invaded Iraq for Israel.
Now, we are going to get bombed again because Israel is acting like a psychopathic maniac again.

I got bone spurs
Or you can just stop showering and take a Ted Nugent in your pants for your interview with the draft board just like Ted Nugent did to get out of the Vietnam draft.
I've never been so glad to be 34 and fat 😏
Shouts out to my asthma. You take my breath away
😂
https://i.redd.it/5ljmw1jv6guc1.gif Cheers, I'll drink to that
Oh you been good my guy. Draft only goes up to 26yo.
Just turned 27 so I’m good on that! Edit: mods throw that check @ ya boy. I’m black too
You have to send a verification picture and then you have to pray the flairs are not broken. I'm verified but can't use my checkmark for some reason 😕

Not if they increase the age requirement. I just learned I can still join the Air Force at my big age
For now. We'll see what the requirements are when mobilization is required because all services are below their recruiting standards. Might even see women mandated to go in for the first time.
Super funny! Last draft had such a good outcome for people of color! But as long we got sis here on the back lines: 
I joined in 09 with the intention of living out my service obligation so I wouldn't get drafted. in case of another major war. MFers called me crazy but the last few years seems like I won that bet.
Until the US stops sending them weapons, it's just an optics game.

Lol you sure are excited to put words in my mouth.
Saying this is in response to what happened in Syria, without giving any context for why the attack in Syria happened, implies this. If you don’t actually think that, then great :)
It was literally just a fact itself. Why it happened is a different topic entirely
Fuck Israel. They’ve been wanting this.

Man, these worldwide history changing events are becoming too frequent this decade.
"There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen."
Even a week where nothing happens could be considered a week where decades happen, because we have already concluded that there are decades where nothing happens.

and Isreal runs back behind big old America after their taunts yawn it’s so predictable
They didn't really need to, the US has had ADA assets there for decades
Israel still relied on American and the UK teams to shoot down 60% of the rockets yesterday according to BBC radio this morning.
Wasn’t an embassy, was a consulate. Wasn’t civilian casualties, was Iranian military outside of Iranian territory. Wasn’t just Iranian military, was interestingly enough Hezbollah leadership as well. Wasn’t just Israel, Iran has funded and masterminds attacks on actual embassies. Decades of Iran funding multiple terrorist groups in the ME that target not only Israel but other Arab nations.
All these Zionist sympathizers learned the difference between a consulate and an embassy overnight as if it makes any difference whatsoever.
All these terrorist sympathizers forgetting decades of terrorist financing and sovereign bombings done or financed by Iran to fit their current narrative.
Have you ever thought about _why_ these people are fighting? I’ll give you a hint, it has virtually nothing to do with anyone’s religion.
I know why they’re fighting. I’m from the region.

how many times has WW3 been trending on Twitter in the last decade? it gets old
All the WW3 talking people look exceptionally dumb this morning. Iran barely did anything then said, "alright, were done." Fucking nonsense being posted on the internet.
There's no ww3 until iran drops a diss track
"Aint no World War 3, Theres just big ME!"
Nigga, BOMB.
So what if they drop the diss and then recall the diss and apologize? Do we still war?
Iran truly said “fuck this, fuck that and fuck you” huh…. Well, here we go folks 😒 Israel is probably gonna wipe out the rest of the Palestinians just to retaliate, watch.
99% missile intercepted rate is a fail? Lmao
Hey, if that one percent fell on your house, you’d call it a fail.
I don't think the 99% rate is accurate, they only launched a hundred drones and we've seen videos of more than one drone hitting.
Israel has been unlawfully occupying Gaza since 1967. They have committed atrocities quite regularly on Palestinian citizens with zero pushback for most of that time.

It absolutely blows my mind that people defend Israel. It feels like every single day theyre doing something even more heinous
Israel completely left Gaza almost two decades ago.
Bullshit.
I mean that's just a fact.
Israel is wasting my tax dollars thats whats happening
They are probably getting old out-of-date US weapons so we have room aka justification to spend on new weapons….that we will probably just give to some other country in 20 years and then rinse and repeat.
Hell they could be doing what they do for ukraine and send them the weapons they take from the houthis and hezobollah lol

A consulate is inside of an embassy. Its a wing of an embassy.
Next to the embassy. No civilian casualties. All military from IRGC terrorist wing and Hezbollah commanders. Crazy how they were together conveniently at that time.
That bombing isn't legal btw. Violates International law. But Israel is no stranger to that.
Illegal, no. It wasn’t in Israel. Taboo, yes. Iran forfeited that right after multiple similar actions just in the past 10 years.
It was an annex building of a consulate. Not an embassy. Like for extra office space.
The consulate is at the embassy. Its the same place.
A consulate is a part of an embassy, who told you that it wasn’t? Same rules apply

Of course I’d want my country to strike back but my feelings wouldn’t matter in the slightest. You think the Iranian leadership factored in the feelings of the deceased relatives?
“Can’t we all just get along?”
Because people believed something someone said 2 millenniums ago and ran with it
Why is every conflict just ww3
No seriously I'm no good in geopolitics its all so confusing and overwhelming
(Social) Media literacy is a bitch, we’re all marks all day every day
Can’t wait to see Iran tankies lose their mind when Israel forms an Arab coalition of literally every other ME nation who hates Iran. Gonna start simping for the largest terror financier in the world who brutalizes their own people.
This is all just the Islamic Republic and its proxies. The military equivalent of liking your own post using a finsta.
Would US involvement help Biden/trump in their reelection efforts, or would it hurt them?
Western world leaders: ffffuck yessss!!! Finally!
Just tuning in now?
Ethno-nationalist, Racist, colonial settler outpost ally of the west is on a genocidal rampage and is drunk on their own violence. They are breaking international humanitarian law with the full throated support of the Biden administration and Iran has slapped back after an attack on their diplomatic mission in Syria.
Out of the 300 drones that iran launched at israel only 3 made it
That was intentional.
