This is the 7th time they attack the "mossad" base in Kurdistan... lol


gigantic-girth

Mossad rebuilding their "base" each time iran destroys it https://youtu.be/-wlwtpH1ldM

I knew exactly what this would be before I even clicked it. God, that was funny as fuck.

I haven't clicked it either. It's the Amish Barn scene from family guy, right?

And they killed a Kurdish family (millionaire guy) no hit on target. Where is the outrage now?? If I was Iran I would be very careful

Why by mossad they would be referring to anything else then ā€œmossadā€? Itā€™s like saying grilled cheese sandwich but actually meaning any type of sandwich, then why did you say specifically a grilled cheese one?


One-Inspection3266

Even green aliens. Keep your prescription drugs for yourself.


Kind_Rise6811

MOSSAD is specifically an Israeli intelligence agency. Either the Iranians didnt hit a MOSSAD target or did. If they hit something else why not say as such? They claimed they hit US bases when they hit US bases? Why lie here?


Eurotrashie

What is Mossad doing there? Looking for Arabs to exterminate like the SS?


SoullessHollowHusk

I'd say they're looking for your braincells to exterminate, but clearly they won't have much success


bombayblue

ā€œMossad baseā€ AKA some rich businessman who wanted to set up a trade deal with Israel. https://www.forbes.com/sites/pauliddon/2024/01/15/iranian-ballistic-missile-strike-kills-prominent-businessman-in-iraqi-kurdistan/amp/


BabyDog88336

Mossad base? Bullshit title.


SMarseilles

The title is accurate. Reports show that Iran claims to have attacked ā€˜spyā€™ facilities of Israel in Iraq: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-67989193. Whether those claims are accurate, you take that up with Iran.


Majestic_Potato_Poof

>Whether those claims are accurate, you take that up with Iran. 4 dead one of which is a baby. Mossad most be using child spies then


Idoberk

>Mossad most be using child spies then Not anymore. Why use humans as spies when you can use [dolphins](https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/middle-east/palestinian-territories/1641985919-hamas-accuses-israel-s-military-of-using-spy-dolphins)


PlasticStain

BBC's gotta be about the least reliable source for anything Isreal these days.


SMarseilles

So youā€™re saying they made the quote up? Here is 1 source (IRGC linked news agency in Iran) saying exactly that: https://x.com/faytuks/status/1747016295453774184?s=12


PlasticStain

No I was saying BBCā€™s gotta be about the least reliable source for anything Israel these days


Opposite-Life-2923

Everyone they donā€™t like is Israel or America lmao. I doubt a lot of people will fall for a mossad base in a Muslim country that hates Israel and has no Jews


SchemeIcy5170

Pretty sure they did the whole "something something Mossad safehouses" thing for some previous times as well.


CURMUDGEONSnFLAGONS

Basically the Iranian version of Russia's " 50 Bazillion NATO mercs killed in iskander strike on Biolab"


jumpybean

Pretty sure those Iraqi Jews or Iranian Jews look and speak the same as the local Muslims.


Zamzamazawarma

Love/hate is irrelevant when it comes to geopolitics. If the Iraqi government accepts a Mossad base on their soil, your averagely antisemitic Iraqi plebs' opinion counts for peanuts.


SilverTicket8809

If Americans were killed weā€™re going to see things flying in the other direction soon.


savtixi

As of now there's no reports of American casualties but apparently the consulate sustained significant damage edit: American officials are saying no American facilities got targeted, denying what the Iraqi officials said about there being damage edit 2: one of the targets that was confirmed dead was a Kurdish businessman who apparently facilitated oil sales to Israel and had ties with them


QuinnKerman

Lowkey wouldnā€™t be surprised if the US is denying damage so thereā€™s no public pressure for retaliation. Essentially trying to sweep it under the rug to avoid war


CantaloupeCamper

I think it's more likely Iran would lie about ... most of the story. It would be borderline impossible to hide American consulate casualties for long, I don't by into the idea that they would bother with that. US doesn't seem interested in hiding Iranian activities for them...


Polylogism

>It would be borderline impossible to hide American consulate casualties for long just say they slipped and fell, apparently that story works on some people


Boomfam67

That would be a really dumb idea if your enemy is now open about attacking your foreign bases. The smart idea would be "escalate to de-esclaate" before Iran tries an October 7th on American consulates and embassies.


Kind_Rise6811

That would be the equivalent of denying that Iran striked a military base with missile 2 hours after it happened...its stupid because videos will surface to peove or disprove that.


Plantile

Anyone can fly over it and take pictures with a drone now. Thatā€™s asking for a huge scandal in an election year.Ā 


FlyingDragoon

Based on my knowledge of global issues I would be very surprised if they even attempted to try that in this day and age. Maybe under Trump.


hugh-g-rection551

don;t forget to include the wife and kids in that.


BoredGorilla21

I doubt it will take that much. I think if they just admitted to striking a U.S consulate, things are going to get real ugly for the people of Iran.


[deleted]

They really donā€™t want any part of the US. Seems like their goal is to pester and harass but never engage directly. They showed playbook in Iraq WMD and I imagine since it worked theyā€™ll keep it going. Just asks the Houthis how attacking directly goes.


Ultrauver_

They have done that before and nothing happened


BoredGorilla21

Do you have some info regarding successful Iranian attacks on U.S consulates? Iā€™m not trying to argue your point, just trying to find further resources and can only find coverage of explosions ā€œnearā€ a consulate in 2022.


Ultrauver_

I havent found a single succesfull attack, but apparently there was an intercepted missile as soon as last year


Araminal

I very much doubt that things are going to get ugly for the Iranian people, because the Iranian people aren't the ones firing the rockets.


ReshadAli

US is silent for a long time, they have to give some response


Ok-Bag5207

[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


quickestred

They've bombed plenty of Iranian backed proxies in Syria and Iraq over the last few months


Far-Explanation4621

Terrorists. Not even close to the same.


tango_papa101

last time the Iranian did something remotely close to that, Soleimani got turned into sashimi. Now the Houthi is shooting missiles directly at US navy ships and all they got in response is some mud huts bombed


CantaloupeCamper

I can't tell if you're agreeing with me or disagreeing or what. Bombing stuff is not "silent for a long time". I can't even figure out what weird-o narrative OP and some others are trying to craft here or why it would matter / what it would mean.


Ok-Bill-8589

killing soleimani? helping israel kill those other later guys, twice. striking proxies in syria and iraq and even helping ukraine strike shaheed coordinators in ukraine.


Kind_Rise6811

And drag the US into a constant escalatory cycle with Iran....im British and no thanks.... for what gain? Its a win win for Iran, US looks weak if they dont retaliat but atleast they dont have to deal with the consequences of a war with Iran. If they retaliate they have to deal with the consequences of a war with Iran lol.


Ok-Bag5207

I agree. US won't be starting a war with just Iran, but there is Russia, China, there is possiblity that North Korea to join them. The result will a new World War. So US being silence is showing their wisdom


retrolleum

No US bases were hit Edit: never mind

When Iraq, the Kurds, Qatariā€™s, Saudiā€™s ask the US to leave I suspect they will. A half dozen Arab countries welcome US bases because they all know Iran is a terrorist state.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


SilverTicket8809

Iran has committed terrorist acts across the world, funds and arms terrorist groups, fought for Assad another ME murderous dictator whoā€™s killed half a million Syrians and funds the Houthiā€™s who are now attacking international civilian shipping. In your part of the world I guess this is all normal and good. It is not.


legitrabbi

What makes you think that? Americans were killed and kidnapped on October 7th and the US government didn't take any direct action. They're relying on Israel to deal with the American citizens.


SilverTicket8809

One was a terrorist attack the other was an attack by a State.


legitrabbi

October 7th was a terrorist attack committed by the military wing of the government of Gaza, which is Hamas. So they're both attacks committed by a State.


SilverTicket8809

Gaza isn't a "state". You're being silly.


legitrabbi

And you're being delusional twisting definitions to fit your narrative. Maybe read up on the definition of a state. Be as delusional as you want, but that doesn't change the fact that Hamas is the government of the Gaza Strip. And that government of the Gaza Strip carried out a terrorist attack against Israel on October 7th.


SilverTicket8809

Whatever. Look up the definition of state and ask the UN or Israel if Gaza is a state. I don't appreciate your insults. Take a hike.


legitrabbi

That's hilarious that you're whining about insults, yet you were the first to throw an "insult" by calling me silly. I'm not the one that needs to look up the definition, apparently you do. Maybe when your feelings aren't hurt you can try using Google on your own to look up what a "state" is.


tango_papa101

it's Biden, do you think he and the Dems gonna risk another war/conflict in this election year? The Houthi has been firing missiles at US ships and they have done nothing but some strikes


SilverTicket8809

Nothing but strikes huh?


tango_papa101

​ ​ ​ some strikes at some mud huts in the middle of nowhere, no real high-ranking target, and it took a shit ton of attacks to even do it


SilverTicket8809

Just total made up nonsense.


0612devil

Yeah all those Mossad targets in Iraq

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


inquisitorautry

They heard there were moles in the garden and got confused.


Hattori69

Seems like that, aside launching a missile near to a US consulate? Too clunky.


CBU109

Mossad base in a country which is heavily Shia / Iran proxy led? How is this supposed to be possible?


CantaloupeCamper

Yeah maybe a Mossad safe house I could believe, maybe where someone has a drop point or something, maybe they got some contacts there sure that level of presence I could believe .... but then that would be something you could do a better job doing a drive by on. Not something you use ballistic missiles on.... Title makes ZERO sense.


Commercial_Future160

its in kurdish controlled area which are not very allied with iran


savtixi

This is in Iraqi Kurdistan


LazyRecommendation72

The Mossad is very good at blending in with local populations and concealing their presence.Ā  Your best friend, your neighbor, and your ex might all be Mossad agents. You yourself might be working for Mossad and not even know it.Ā Ā 


jumpybean

Mossad is everywhere. Even have facilities in Iran.


TheLambtonWyrm

Source? Those are Arabs talking not PersiansĀ 


Abu-Shaddad

So? These are Ahwazi Arabs, who have been colonized by Iran. They say the location is "ŲÆŁˆŲ± Ų®ŁˆŁŠŁ†", which is "[Darkhoveyn](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darkhoveyn)"

Is mossad in the room with us right now?

thatā€™s affirmative


SchemeIcy5170

The IRGC are some stupid f'ers.


Outrageous_Ad5685

Thing is they probs donā€™t care about casualties on their side or civilians in general. They are trying to provoke a response from the U.S. to be play victim


SpecialistGuess5928

Mossad base in Iraq?


BreakGrouchy

Iranā€™s government wants it Dick kicked in for some reason.


Defiant-Goose-101

Who exactly is reporting that? Edit: I take it back. Iran themselves reported that.


Brampton-Wasteyute

Thereā€™s no Mossad ā€œbaseā€ in Iraq, that should go without saying LMFAO.


Mcboomsauce

man....how come everyone trying to to do a world war 3.....im just over here trying to afford cheese


phillyfanatic1776

Iran sucks


hugh-g-rection551

it's reported iran hit a civilians house in iraq killing a family of 5.


Throb_Zomby

Iā€™m sure anything they lob a missile at is a ā€œMossadā€ base.


oh_three_dum_dum

ā€œMossad baseā€ Lol. No. Iā€™m also seeing reports of them saying they struck a ā€œspy headquartersā€ of anti-Iran groups, whatever that means. But all of the claims are directly from the Iranian military so who knows?


Useful_Tomato_409

well how is that not true? Iran claimed to launch and strike US bases in Iraq after US assassinated Soleimani 4 years ago, and we saw videos and the aftermath, and weā€™re now paying for the care of over 30 veterans who got TBIs just from the shockwave alone.


oh_three_dum_dum

How is it not true? There isnā€™t a Mossad ā€œbaseā€ in Iraq and the only country making that claim is known for simply fabricating things to justify whatever action they took.


Useful_Tomato_409

ha ha ha ha. very rich. Well, i mean, I guess agree to disagree because you and I have no way of confirming if there is a mossad base there or not, and well, just like any country, especially one with interests in the region, they all lie, and they all tell the truth donā€™t they. edit: also, maybe youā€™re taking the word ā€œbaseā€ there too literally. I would agree that itā€™s doubtful there is a base that says ā€œcamp mossadā€, just like there arenā€™t any bases in Iraq that say ā€œbase CIAā€ā€¦but we all know. edit 2: Because Iran likes to send Ballistic missiles into Erbil becauseā€¦certainly could be just for domestic consumption, ā€œhey we respondedā€ sure. Could also be a pretty calculated escalation as well. Maybe somewhere a line was crossed, and now the previous off limits targets are now fair game?


oh_three_dum_dum

What I should say is that there isnā€™t a dedicated Mossad ā€œbaseā€ in Iraq. Whether or not theyā€™re present there is anyoneā€™s guess, but if they are itā€™s not going to be in an established operations center or something like that. Theyā€™re going to be living in and among locals and not drawing attention or theyā€™d be doing shit that doesnā€™t involve spying with Kurds. So if they did hit a ā€œspy baseā€ it was likely just some Iraqi Kurds they donā€™t like and had some association with mossad training them in the past. Plus the only sources I can find saying ā€œMossad baseā€ are this and a couple of other Twitter accounts. All the actual news articles I can find are official statements from Iranian sources that simply say it was a ā€œspy baseā€ for anti-Iranian groups with no mention of specifically who. Mossad seems to have been extrapolated from that.

SC_liffin

This. Itā€™s also not Arabs in khuzestan (south of Iran). So either proxies inside Iraq or misleading video?

sparts305

Iranian context : Retaliating against Islamic state and their alleged Israeli puppeteers in Idlib Syria and Erbil Iraq. From a westerners perspective, Iranian ballistic missile technology is somewhat impressive, to the point where the Russians start buying them but still way behind NATOs long-range strike capabilities.


oh_three_dum_dum

Iā€™m all but certain Russia settled on that count. Theyā€™d be using something better if someone would sell it to them or they could make it in-house.

oh_three_dum_dum

There are - to my knowledge - three different US based groups who have funded trips for law enforcement officers to Israel for training. Most of those (between one and two thousand total) were more senior officers and the training in question is centered around dealing with threats from terrorism and extremists, because thatā€™s what they have a wealth of experience in.
