Attempt to storm Israeli embassy in Jordan
Israel National News ^ | 10/17/23 | Israel National News

Hundreds rioted outside the Israeli embassy in Amman, Jordan this evening (Tuesday) following the explosion at a Gaza hospital that Hamas blamed on an Israeli airstrike. Dozens of rioters even attempted to storm the embassy.

Hamas has claimed that 500 people were killed in the explosion. The IDF has stated that it is investigating the blast and reiterated that it does not deliberately strike hospitals. The possibility that the blast was caused by a misfired Hamas rocket, many of which have been known to fall short and land in Gaza, is being investigated.

An Israeli source later confirmed that "unequivocally, this was a failed launch."

The world is joining Hamas in wanting to defeat Israel. Russia is beating Biden in Ukraine. Things aren’t going well for the U.S.

Actually if Russia was beating Ukraine then Russia wouldn’t need to involve themselves in Middle East war

Smells of Russian desperation

Plus all those people saying Ukraine losses of 300k are just wrong. If it were true the war would be over by now

I think Russia is being slapped around by Ukraine.

They don't have to, their ally Iran is doing just fine.

“I think Russia is being slapped around by Ukraine.”

When you consider that as of February 2023, military aid was donated by EU institutions, 45 sovereign countries, companies, and other parties, and sooner or later the Ukraine is going to run out of borrowed tools and when those sovereign countries are going to demand payment or the end of the war as that is what those tools were given for, the game will be over. The United States alone has pledged about $76.8 billion in arms and military aid to Ukraine since Russia’s massive invasion in February 2022. I wonder when the US is going to consider the investment past due and want payment for a sign of ending the war? So far, the US has given the Ukraine

“...if Russia was beating Ukraine then Russia wouldn’t need to involve themselves in Middle East war...”

Russia has been supplying arms in the region for decades. Hamas is just another customer. And surprisingly, they also have had boots on the ground as reported early as 2015 in Syria. In December 2017, the Russian government announced that its troops would be deployed to Syria permanently. It is also reported that a US javelin missile, taken from the Ukraine battleground, was used on October 7 to take out an Israeli tank. Wonder where that came from? That’s quite a drive for a track vehicle.

When Russia gets enough of it, they will take out the Ukraine even if it takes nuclear capacity as they are the largest storage of such in the world. It would take a crazy person to do that. But Biden is such a panzie and won’t retaliate anything so he would probably defend Russia if they did and possible attempt to intimidate other countries that would wish to retaliate. He did it in Afghanistan, he’s doing it in Israel, why not Russia? The list continues and Russia is not afraid of us any more when they can make Biden crimp.

I wonder about external embassy security in Lebanon.

My son was a Marine Security Guard in Honduras and Jordan. The locals provide external security, cops and/or soldiers; and the US marines inside the compound and the buildings. I thought that was international law or practice.

Before Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem, it was a consulate. The locals, Armenian Christians, provided security and were helpful answering questions and walked the fence around the block. The Israelis had 4 soldiers in a small booth on one corner. I lost my passport in Jerusalem and one of the Armenians helped me get a photo (from an Arab store) and get through the paperwork. I had my temporary in 2.5 hours.

In Paris you can’t walk within a block of the Israeli embassy, unless the Paris police let you through the barricades on each end of the street. And there are several cops again right by the gate to the embassy compound.
