As Iran tests missile defense capabilities with a constant barrage, interceptor stockpiles are a pivotal variable in the war. An Israeli official denies the shortage.
And the point of the phrase you replied to is that retaliatory strikes are endless (retaliate the retaliations) so everyone gets fucked up and the conflict never ends
If it is to strike back to stop the aggression even taking out the leadership… That’s one thing that can end a conflict.
If you say it most go as far against the citizens of Israel as the IDF has gone against the citizens of Gaza, that degree of vengeance back and forth can never be reasonably resolved. Assuming the entire citizenry must be made to pay for the sins of the leadership is a road to ever escalating violence.
What a silly thing to say.
The whole point of the phrase is that bullies get a beating so they stop fucking everyone up.
Funny thing it’s a phrase from the Hebrew Bible

Sure but it doesn’t withstand even a moments critical thought.
There have been retaliatory strikes in every war ever, yet all conflicts end eventually.
Korean war is still ongoing.
And of course, Israel is mired in conflicts since the forties.
The point is the endgame.

That’s fair.
I’m not really advocating for the slaughter of millions.
Just frustrated like everyone else.
There seems to be overwhelming support for Israel’s behaviour internally. I dislike the Israeli people immensely.
