So the people screaming “Death to Israel” don’t ever get the capability to keep their word.
Why ?
I am first viewer and comment
Please understand that when Israel tells you, you were told that means you were told. Bless you. For Israel has spoken.
❤🇵🇸🇧🇩
We loved to listen your truth news.
The answer to your question is simple. Because Iran is weak. For Israel has spoken.
Oh, because Iran hasn't attacked Israel in the last two years. They 'just activated' their proxies, the Houthis, Hezbollah and Hamas who attacked Israel. Really, what do you want from the ayatollahs? They're so innocent.
AZIZAM GRETA PLEASE GO TO IRAN WITH SOME SANDWICHES AND WATER, AND PLEASE BE IN THE FRONTLINE FOR IRAN🇮🇷❤
You people are funny. Not a single fairytale you people have told yourselves and others have come true. Not one. And they won't. Bless you. For Israel has spoken.
America will eventually cease to regard Netanyaho as being useful .
Would point your attention toward Zelenski .
And by the way the voice thing is AI Al Jazeera is using AI deceive people
Оружие, которое Россия поставляет Ирану, бесполезно.
Россия должна прекратить признавать Израиль и должна осуществить военное вмешательство, чтобы спасти Палестину и вернуть всех израильтян в Европу и Америку, предотвратив неминуемое уничтожение Ирана.
That how Israel treat fools. Professor Israel is lecturing student Iran😂😂😂😂
Operation "Hiding Lion" began with Bibi fleeing the country before hitting Iran by surprise
This is a new low for Israel and for the US
professor Marandi bragged how Iran is prepared for Israel. I just saw videos of Israeli planes bombing targets over Tehran. Where are all those fancy Iranian air defense systems they bragged about? The home grown Iranian ones are ineffective. Israel will take out their gas fields, oil fields, ports, ships and Navy later on. Iran economy will weaken severely. No matter what Iran does, their economy will be screwed.
Where is Professor Maranndi now? We want answers!!
All your grandiose pronouncements of what will be just disappear. Always. You people are funny. So, we laugh at you. Bless the simple mind. For Israel has spoken.
Sorry for your loss AJ
BBC = Biased reporting. CNN = Biased reporting. Al Jazeera = The truth
I think they call what’s happening to Iran “blowback”. Praying for ☮️
🇮🇱🖕
Iran is so cooked
Middle East will be peaceful now
Israel attack iran bcoz they are terrorist country
Al Jazeera " Qatar Voice for Terrorists"
Another war propaganda by Al Jazeera and as usual doing victim cards.😂
Israel start the war and playing victim. It use the same narrative as Bush before invading Iraq.
ইয়া রাব্বুল আলামিন আল্লাহ! আপনি ইরানের জন্যে যথেষ্ট হয়ে যান। আপনি তো "কুন ফায়াকুন" বললেই হয়ে যায় আল্লাহ!
This is ridiculous piece of work. Are yourr target listeners some kindergarten children? The hate of Al Jazeera shall fall together with them and the sinners.
All bs
'Breaking: Iran Government collapsing, Israeli Airstrikes destroy key sites'
on: The Enforcer
I think this is muslim news channel
If an Israeli says it's day, check if the sun is out.
I think if the war gets more intense. Than China and russia will have advantage to claim ukraine and Taiwan.
This news channel want israel to wipe out
Iranian regime is death, this Qatar media works for hamas, Iranian regime 😅
My prayers to all Israeli people and IDF
You people are amazing and funny. How you so easily and effortlessly flow from one fantastical fairytale to another. None of them mean anything. But you are funny. So, we laugh at you. Keep watching and remember you were told. For Israel has spoken.
Israel is attacking Iran because Iran is a bad hombre
Israel just loves war and death
Israel should stop using Americans as human shields.
Why are Iranian targets are mostly civilian, whereas those of the IDF majorly military??
Predators do what predators do
Netanyahu claimed he targeted Iran to stop it from building a nuclear weapon.
However, Obama’s agreement had already addressed that issue—until Netanyahu persuaded Trump during his first tenure to scrap the deal.
When Trump in his second tenure was close to securing a new one, Netanyahu disrupted it by launching strikes on Iran.
In the end, it seems Netanyahu simply wanted to attack Iran.
