Israel already did their strike, and it actually had casualties!

Iran's strike was the symbolic one.

I honestly thought this was The Onion just based on the headline alone.

It's like we live in two different realities.

One for the US and Israel

And another for the rest of the world

I got confused, clicked your link and was like: Yeah....the guy is fuckin craycray.....but what shoes??

So maybe look up Iranian surplus? Or look to see who manufactures them? Maybe make friends with some people in Iran, in the military, and see how much of a bribe it would take to have some sent in your size?

Arsène is most likely referring to the Israeli flag printed on the bottom, meaning that every step you take is a step on the Israeli flag.

The imagery that comes to mind is a special israeli kid facing a football goal, ball at his feet. Behind the kid with the ball is an american, cheering him on and encouraging him. Across from them is an iranian goalkeeper.

The israeli kicks the ball, the american cheers and praises as the ball slowly rolls across the grass. The iranian goalkeeper dives dramatically in the wrong direction, allowing the ball to roll in.

The american raises the drooling israeli child onto his shoulders while the stadium erupts into praise and celebration of the kid's accomplishment.
