  1. Iran may have a garbage government, but so do we. We don't have a mandate on being the only ones to be able to carry out surgical strikes, and our hypocrisy on the matter is becoming impossible to justify.

  2. If it was not israel you wont be reporting it 😂😂😂😂

  3. If Israeli wouldn’t know about it

  4. The iranian regime are a bunch of cowards. They killed 4 civilians and critically injuring another 6 civilians. One of them being an 11 month old baby girl. The iranian regime must be held accountable by the international community.

  5. So Iran is going to war with Iran? Iraq has no anti-air systems?

  6. You can’t provoke Iran and expect them not to do anything in return. The reporter forgot to mention the Israeli attacks on Iranian commanders in Syria and the Israeli killing of Hamas deputy leader Saleh al-Arouri in Neitit is a major reason for the escalation. He also forgot to mention USA is an illegal occupier of Syria and that is why, the illegal US bases are attacked…

  7. Biden and Blinky are an embarrassment

  8. It's not Iraq it's KURDISTAN OR IRAQI KURDISTAN REGION! Also most Kurds don't support Israel, Iran is a liar!! Kurds just want peace after 100 years of oppression and persecution by Iran, Iraq, Turkey and Syria!

  9. Kurdish people are suffering from all this disaster, they dont even connect with israel, iran is bombing them because of US embassy who is there in kurdistan

  10. I thought only the US was allowed to do this

  11. President Putin is right: it's the US and Israel against the world.

  12. Israel must end the genocide Children of Gaza😢😢

  13. 🙋🏽‍♂️🪬🪬🪬

  14. The new standard for war is that western countries cannot defend themselves whatsoever

  15. What's Kurdistan? I thought they attacked Iraq!! 🥲

  16. I always said that WW3 started from the moment the US attacked Iraq. It was at a low level then, but now that Iran has started, the level will grow quickly. Of course, Iran cannot be compared with Iraq. Not only around weapons and technology (which is kept out of the world), but also the countries that will support Iran when the time comes. Such as South America, African countries, the Middle East, Asian Countries and of course Russia, China and North Korea. See who's worried then 😉

  17. But Iran has the right to defend itself from terrorists who attacked their country without UN authorization. 😂😂😂 you teach other countries your bad behavior.

  18. Kurdistahn ?or Iraq?at moment it sound surreal like in cold war and KGBs paranoia during Pimlico.thats so rotten of Iran.but they can get to border to egypt take food parcels can drop of aid via drones?drom red cross etc.food lorries are getting in theres pictures of citizens desperately raiding lorties food boxes from said lorries.

  19. The mental gymnastics placed on media correspondents is beyond ridiculous…

    Anchor: why isn’t aid getting through?
    Richard: dancing 📍around it 😂

  20. This might hold water but it fails as the USA neocons have had Iran in its sights for 45 years. Most telling was Gen. Wesley Clark revealing in 2001 after 911 the plans were to take out 7 counties in 5 years ending with Iran. After all the USA managed to oust the democratically elected president and TIME mag Man of the Year: Mossadegh

  21. 😢😢😢😔😔😔😔😔

  22. Like everywhere they go, goat herders burning their own stuff calling it a victory over the enemy 😂

  23. Israel itself is actually going to retaliate against the Iranians

  24. Iran killed 78 USA soldiers in the attack 😮but they covered up!

  25. NBC must be so confused.
    They tow the Jewish line,yet SJW against the Gaza thing.
    The staff must be pulling at their eyebrows.

  26. IRAN MUST STOP ATTCKING INNOCENT CIVILANS IN SYRIA AND IRAQ !!!!

  27. Let Joe Biden know our kids will not die for Isreal a racist and rogue European State….

  28. .#zZz#.⚡⬆️⬇️💀☢☣ХОРОШИЙ ЭКСПЕРЕМЕНТ – КАК МЕЛ С ДОСКИ,СМЁЛ ЭП/ИЗЛУЧЕНИЯ💀💀💀💀💀⚡🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣⚫⚫⚫⚫⚫💀💀💀💀💀💀⚡⚡⚡

  29. This is not Iraq this is Kurdistan ✌️

  30. He seriously reminds us that everyone blamed us but dont mention it was isis that claimed it.

  31. "Every time anyone says that Israel is our only friend in the Middle East, I can't help but think that before Israel, we had no enemies in the Middle East." John Sheehan

  32. Richard seems extremely disturbed by this incident. Have we seen the aberration in the Matrix?

  33. All Muslim countries live in peace and harmony amongst themselves and with their neighbors. There is prosperity and growth in their countries.
    Their Population is happy and contented They have sukun!
    Wherever Muslims go in the world, they spread peace happiness and brotherhood.
    They do not indulge in any kind of evil because they are afraid of Allah.
    Allah Hu Akbar !

  34. Many kurds are the side of Israel. Actually 10% of Kurdistan population are Jews.
