Iran needs to stop holding back and demolish all universities in Israel. This is fucking ridiculous. They're setting your country back decades if not more. If you're still sticking to some abstract morality while the future of your people is stolen from them, you're a fucking idiot.
"Holding back" isn't really what they're doing. It's hard to justify attacking a school when doing so puts your already diminished resources at risk. Every time they launch a missile that launcher platform is highlighted for attack just like we've seen in Ukraine, but arguably even worse.
If you're going to risk losing valuable assets then you have to justify it with valuable targets.
I think military bases and data centers make better targets.
What Israel doing is provocation because they want a war.
universities are also part of the military infrastructure.
should read their own book sometimes
Destroying Israeli universities wouldn't actually advance Iran's cause but could well lose them some of the small amount of international support they're enjoying. I'm not saying they should be any more scrupulous than anyone else, or than they're currently being, but they should, and presumably would prefer to, concentrate their efforts on targets that could actually impact their enemy's ability to harm them.
I'm a bit confused, who lost?
It's a hasbara bot. Probably thinks the war is over from being spoon fed Trump propaganda.
You haven't seen shit yet, you're gonna be crying in your bunkers before this is over
