The worst fear of the year is being realized today, as all-out war spreads in the Middle East. Israel is under attack from Iran.
Rocket sirens blared across Israel on Tuesday night as Iran launched over 180 ballistic missiles onto the country, killing at least one person, a Palestinian who was working in the city of Jericho, according to Israeli media. Tel Aviv was also hit, with one building taking a direct hit.
Missles fell in Tel Sheva, Tel Aviv, Dimona, Nabatim, Hora, Hod Hasharon, Beersheba, and Rishon Lezion, according to the Jerusalem Post.
“We are praying for the safety of the people of Israel as they are undergoing missile attacks launched by the terrorist regime in Tehran. The Biden-Harris administration’s appeasement of Iran must end. They need to be very clear: America stands with Israel. The terrorist regime in Iran will face consequences for this attack,” wrote U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan on social media on Tuesday morning.
President Joe Biden issued the following: “This morning, @VP and I convened our national security team to discuss Iranian plans to launch an imminent missile attack against Israel. We discussed how the United States is prepared to help Israel defend against these attacks, and protect American personnel in the region.” As of midafternoon East Coast Time, it was the only statement from the White House.
Congressional candidate for Alaska Nick Begich said, “Weak Democrat leadership in the White House has led to instability around the world, and encouraged aggression directed toward our allies. Today’s action by the Iranian government is a preview of the next four years should Harris, Peltola, and the rest of the Democrats gain control.”
Neither Sen. Lisa Murkowski or Rep. Mary Peltola issued any statement on the devastating attack on America’s ally. Peltola reminded Alaskans that it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and that regular checkups save lives.
Update: Sen. Lisa Murkowski issued a statement: “I am closely tracking and monitoring the latest ballistic missile attack against Israel, with nearly 200 missiles fired into the country. America must continue to stand with its closest ally as they defend themselves from the attacks of Iran and its terroristic regime. My prayers go out to all those affected by this indiscriminate attack.“
Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said he had spoken with former President Donald Trump on Tuesday, “and he is determined and resolved to protect Israel from the threats of terrorism emanating from Iran. I can assure you Iran attacks Israel at their own peril. While I appreciate the Biden Administration’s statement, we cannot forget that when President Trump left office, Iran was weak economically, and he sent the regime the ultimate message with the elimination of Soleimani. The only thing the Iranian regime understands is strength. Now is the time to show unified resolve against Iran, the largest state sponsor of terrorism. We need decisive action, not just statements.”
As of 10 a.m. Alaska time, all Israelis are in bomb shelters around the country, Israeli Defense Forces reported.
Oct. 7 will be the one-year anniversary that Hamas terrorists, backed by Iran, launched a major raid on southern Israel, killing, raping, and kidnapping hundreds of Israeli citizens who were caught in the ambush.
On Monday, Israel launched a raid into neighboring Lebanon to attack the Iran-backed terrorist group Hezbollah. The goal of the raid was to push Hezbollah forces away from the Israel-Lebanon border. U.S. officials said the offensive would last just a few days. But today, Iran has retaliated and sent the entire population of Israel into bomb shelters.
Feckless leadership at work, Biden has done what Obama said he would do when he said “don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to F@(k things up”.
I don’t care, do you?
No one should care but there are a ton of people in US Gov’t that believe that is their homeland and will lobby to squander American lives and American dollars in support of a group of antagonistic non-allies. They do nothing for the US. More accurately, they start military trouble and antagonize their equally quarrelsome neighbors and then hid behind the skirt of Lady Liberty.
Sullivan’s a boob and has private reasons for his stance; he wants his wife to approve of whatever flies out of his pie hole next.
Begich has said some fairly reasonable things heretofore but his statement about Israel being an ally is a poorly articulated gaff. Don’t be a suck up, Begich. Learn, analyze and then speak.
They’re the only country in the region that even resembles a democracy and they’re surrounded by theocratic fascists like Iran who have stated their desire to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. There are Arabs who sit on both the Knesset and the Supreme Court in that country. Israel is a tiny country surrounded by its enemies. Good to know which side you’re on Clam.
I love Democracy.
It keeps the people fighting amongst each other, all sides arguing about who is right and who is wrong. While the people are distracted in their war against each other, I am able to do whatever I want without scrutiny.
Democracy: 2 wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.
Keep it up slumbering humanity. Makes my job as the dark lord so much easier.
Ahahahahaha!
Biden didn’t release that statement, he’s on a beach somewhere. Who knows where that statement came from. The evil in the world sees weakness and no leadership in the US and know it’s time to act. China and Russia know this as well.
Things could go nuclear. Why do all the wars seem to happen when Democrats are in power?
Not our civil war. Not the Iraq war.
However, the Iraq war was started by the Bushes. They very definition of RINO. Globalists, all of them.
Strong men create easy times.
Easy times create weak men.
Weak men create tough times, and
Tough times create strong men.
.
Take a guess where we are in that cycle.
Finally, Finally Iran has done something stupid enough, that’s
going to put it into all this nonsense. A state of war now exists.
Now we can stop all this sucker punching, that’s been going on and get right down to the meat and potatoes.
Good to know you are volunteering to go fight. Be on your way now.
If you don’t go fight then you are a COWARD. Those who cheer on wars they don’t fight in are the lowest of the scum.
Don’t try and hide behind age or disability either. If you have a finger that can pull a trigger… get off your sorry but and go!
46 of 48 Democratic Senators (96%) voted for military aid for Israel. 15 Republicans, including Vice Presidential nominee JD Vance, voted against helping Israel defend itself. For all the disagreements between Biden and Bibi, no American administration has used U.S. military assets to directly defend Israel before Biden. It has no precedent in the history of either country.
Nice deflection.
I notice you fail to mention that the bill in question had three times (almost) as much funding for Ukraine than for Israel.
Voting against throwing even more money to the Ukraine is not the same as voting against Israel.
Good to know you stand with fascists both in Russia and Iran.
If the money we sent to Ukraine was actually used in their effort to fight Russia, I would be Ok with it. But shoring up their pensions, funneling it back to the democrats via Fried, and keeping the US military industrial complex funded is another thing altogether.
.
Tell you what, get Congress to pass a clean bill funding nothing but Israel, and then Sebastian’s comments may be relevant.
Enlighten us on the Fried story with facts C-BM.
Well, will you look at that. Turns out there is no “there” there.
The info I was working with is apparently old, and incorrect. While Fried did make a ton of illegal donations, turns out the connection between the Ukraine aid and the money used was not proven.
.
I am adult enough to admit I was wrong on that front. However… the pension statement is apparently correct.
.
See, that is how it is done. When adults make mistakes, they admit it. Too many leftists on MRAK just seem to disappear when they are challenged.
What an amazing time to be alive.
It seems humanity still hasn’t learn from the mistakes of LeMu or Atlantis. Our nation has been corrupted for a long time. Only recently have our nation’s people started to notice something terribly wrong. Alas, many are still fast asleep and cheering on the corrupted.
Well, America sure was nice while it lasted. I guess the survivors will be around to pick up the pieces. Hopefully when the next nation rises in its place, the people are able to identify the corruption before it eats itself from within.
The ultimate lesson in all this is love wins. When a country allows lies and propaganda to divide everyone by race, sex, money, religion, pop culture, etc… what you see happening now are the results.
Humans better get it together before there is no place left to call home.
Lets go Brandon and Kamala.
Now is your chance to prove your worth with support for Israel or show more of your true colors with more financial aid to Iran.
Iran is still thanking Joe for financing the first raid.
The world price of gasoline will soon skyrocket as Israel now has a good reason to shut down the three major Iranian crude oil loading ports.
Israel wil now take out Iran’s 3CI (Command Control Communications Intelligence) After Iran is properly blinded, military infrastructure that supports their terror will be wiped out.
When religous whack jobs run a country, you have Iran.
They need to stop farting around and just go ahead and get WWIII kicked off so they can keep feeding the military industrial complex.
The UK and Canada are our closest allies. Israel is an ally but also a client state, similar to Pakistan (legally classified as a “major non-NATO ally”), and Saudi Arabia. As one of the resident Jews on MRA, I support Israel, but I’m 100% American and do not have, nor desire, Israeli citizenship. I hope Israel vanquishes Hamas and Hezbollah, gets the hostages home, and then arranges security arrangements with the remaining governments. It actually worked with Egypt and Jordan, and despite overheated rhetoric from certain quarters who would kill any Arab, I would prefer a truce with the Christians and non Salifiast in that region. Our little buddies in UAE, Kuwait, and Saudi, as well as the (extremely) pro American majority in Iran seek this as well. Jesus Christ is the Prince of Peace. At some point, US Christians (who have a track record in Berlin and Tokyo) should be leaders in detente, truce, and down the road, a peace and security agreement. War is hell, rooting for the slaughter of innocents based on their last name is horror, and I pray for the killing to end when Hamas and Hezbollah are defeated.
Jews killed Jesus though. Wealthy families and clergy sought to maintain power and were fearful that the Roman’s would strip them of it if they lost control of the masses. It’s best to keep control of your own heart, because everything is channeled through it.
There was no magical dead jew. You attempt to reason within a swirling mass of fantastical nonsense and until you stop you’ll never be able to think straight.
Actually, there was/is. Read Pilates letters that actually describe Jesus. Aburn hair, Grey eyes etc.
There are no surviving letters from Herod to Pilate, Pilate to Herod, or any other combination of those two and anyone else. Completely bogus, much as are the Dead Sea Scrolls. Many have requested confirmation from the Library of Congress for same and there is nothing of the sort.

Charlatans have been drafting bogus nonsense to bolster the magical dead jew theory for many centuries. They’re all works of fiction. Auburn hair and gray eyes from Middle East you say? I bet that little redirect had the ‘biblical scholars’ running off on a tangent.
What’s more likely to have happened…
An immaculate conception?
Or a frisky jewish girl lied?
I’m sorry that you do not know Jesus, and as such, he does not know you. His deciples betrayed him too after all they had witnessed. Even Peter, although he asked for forgiveness and it was granted.
Definition: Faith
An absolute belief despite an absence of any supporting evidence.
And yes, there are a host of fictitious characters that I do not know. Batman, Superman, The Boogerman, Ant Man, any of the Avengers, Bane, Iron Man, The Invisible Woman, Master Khan, Hercules, Medusa, Cyclops, Zeus, Aqua Man, etc. There is no hole in my heart for any of those characters, either.
I support your choice to accept each of them into your heart but you need not fret when others find such fiction difficult to parse.
I fret for everyone doomed to eternal damnation . Have you never had a prayer answered? I hope my prayers for your soul are.
Never. Pray to Joe Pesci and your prayers will be answered w/ similar frequency.

“I believe everything came from nothing.”
Question: Why would the Son begotten by the Father look the same as others in any region?
Interesting point. Phenotype and genotype encompass heritable traits. Are you saying that God has red hair and gray eyes?
If so you are leading others to believe that god was made in man’s image rather than man made in God’s.
This “Jews killed Jesus” cr*p that has gone around for ages is an antisemitic trope that the Jews as a people throughout thousands of years since the prophesied death of the Christ are somehow collectively responsible. His death was foretold in the Old Testament hundreds of years prior to his birth. The people of the time within range of these events were all Jews. It was all of the known humanity who fulfilled the prophecy. I don’t think you understand how small their world was at the time. There were literally only about 25,000 people living in Jerusalem at the time of Jesus.
It was a melting pot. That’s why Pilate had the name plaque above Jesus in 3 languages. Pilate pronounced sentence under pressure from Jewish clergy. I was clarifying that Roman’s didn’t kill Jesus. Pilate knew that he was innocent.
What’s astounding about the “Jews killed Jesus” talking point is that when antisemites say that they completely divorce themselves from their own belief system that Jesus died for their sins. They do this in order to somehow justify their hatred of an entire group of people, thus further exposing the hypocrisy of their own chosen beliefs.
False, not hypersonic missiles. Hypersonic missiles fly at 5000 mph and can’t be shot down.
I do wonder why and who is lieing?
Who is it that’s lying about hypersonic missles, yours is the first mention of hupersonic missles that I’ve seen.
From what I read, the Cole and another shot down hypersonic missiles. I’m pretty sure we have items that will take out anything flying.
Iran attacked a whole group of atheists that believe god chose them! And US is supporting the atheists! You can’t make this stuff up!
God promised Abraham and his children the land. Others must pay the price for their actions. God is patient. He waited over 800 year for Methusala to die, but the day after, he brought the flood.
It’s just a continuation of good versus evil. You don’t have to make it up. It’s been written. It goes all the way back to Noah’s son, Ham.
All of these people that attack Israel came from Canaan originally, which originated from Hams generation. The fallen angels that God cursed for having children with the women of the time
Created giants, Goliath was one of those guys. So Goliath is one of the relatives from Ham. You ask if everybody was killed except for what was on the ark, how did these giants survive. The answer is, their genes were present in the wives of noah’s sons. Abraham sent spies ahead, into the land of Canaan, and saw that giants mostly lived there. That’s why God told abraham that all the canaanites and other people’s that came from those genetically inferior women have to die. So I realized this is getting pretty deep for many of you, but it has been written that
People that originated from Ham, and his lineage, have to die, so
the story just has to play out. Like I said God is patient but he knows how this story ends. Some of the other resident historians feel free to chime in.
Thats all myth and fiction.
Mythology as fact. You go, Fork.
It’s ok to believe whatever you like but you’ll seem like less of a lunatic if you ponder history and science more often than the nonsensical mush about giants, angels and worse yet, floods. Don’t leave out the part about God giving “dominion” over all living things except viral strains, bacteria, cellular anomalies like cancers, etc. Methinks God peaked a little early and then bailed out before the work was done, eh?
Was it Shem, Ham or Japheth that field dressed one of the unicorns?
The Bible is flawed. The writers omitted many books from it for political reasons. That doesn’t make it wrong or false.
