Just look at Gaza, West Bank, south Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen and now Iran. Who targets civilians??

Considering the fact that, other than children, all Israelis are IDF goons and legit targets of war, I have to ask, what "civilian" targets in Israel? This is not the case in Iran. Israel is a aggressor terrorist (they are behind ISIS), they deliberately target actual civilians regularly. But Iran not so much. Other than children there are no Israeli "civilians* they are all enemy combatants.

Patrick, I really appreciate your "on the ground" reports. One eye-witness is worth more than all the opinions/propaganda in the world. I am unable to travel to where the events are occurring, but I read a variety of sources in an effort to get a well-rounded view of what is happening, in an effort to get something close to the truth. I salute you for your efforts in this regard.

I have the same fears that you do with regard to propaganda about an Iranian nuke. While I have great love and compassion for the Israeli people, this does NOT extend to their leaders. I see Netanyahu as a criminal, pushing for war to keep himself out of jail, and sadly he has far too many accomplices in the US government and other governments around the world.

I am not absolving leaders of Iran or other countries for their crimes as I say this. Among political leaders of ALL countries, the vast majority are evil and conspiring men and women. When there is a war, it is almost never the good guys against the bad guys, but bad against bad, with a lot of more-or-less innocent people caught in the middle, even as they fall for the propaganda and manipulation of those evil politicians who stir up the problems.

By putting on the ground in “ “ I wonder if you mean you do know he not on the ground in Israel. He is not on the ground in Israel for several reasons but one easy one is that no flights happening since Israel started bombing Iran. As to Gaza, no reporters allowed in there by Israel, and Iran no reporters from outside meantime.

Patrick is just putting together reports he finds on the Internet and which, as he in the job now, can give a wide picture of things.

Indeed I am aware. Patrick has been very clear about when he is on the ground and sees and talks to people there - Russia, India, etc. - and when he is reporting from afar. And some places are easier to get to than others. I will note that when honest reporters are blocked from going and reporting what they actually see, I trust the reports that do come from that area even less.
