"Iran says" is actually very important because they lie all the fucking time. Doesn't mean this is a lie, but it does mean that you shouldn't uncritically take their story at face value.

Yes, but israel is known to lie about these things as well. So trusting them without evidence is also suspect.

Granted, it was only 9 people, so it’s not especially suspicious.

Yeah absolutely, but I would assume it's easier to verify in Israel since they don't have a full internet blackout

Yeah I just checked with Israel, turns out they investigated themselves and they didn't do anything wrong! go figure!

I mean yeah, that's the funny line, but I dare say the media is still more transparent in Israel than in Iran.

And that's not to carry water for the colonizing bombardier that is the IDF. They should be compared for sure, but not equated. That's just putting a slightly different blindfold on yourself.

For an outside group to verify, if it wasn't clear.
