In a social media post on Wednesday, the hacking group that claimed responsibility said the Stryker hack was retaliation for a missile strike on an elementary school in Iran... Being sickened and angered by the killing of so many schoolgirls, who happen to be Iranian, makes you "Pro-Iran"? Strange world.

They're angry about civilians dying, so they want different civilians to die from lack of medical devices?

Sounds evil. Like America's foreign policy

While I don't think violence is always the answer, and I definitely don't support Iranian regime, I don't disagree with the statement an eye for an eye.

People and nations should expect that an attack will be met with an attack.

If a bully is hitting someone, one of the most effective ways of stopping it completely is hitting back.

Iran is fighting against ring of Epstein friends.

Iran allows girls to be married off at 8 years and 9 months with parental approval and 13 years without parental approval. Sex is allowed once married regardless of age.

Maybe they should start dealing with this in their own country before fighting against it in other places.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Nuance is dead, it is all collectively distilled to a binary choice these days.

It's becoming tiresome to see nuance vanishing even here on HN. "My team is right, your team is wrong. You must chose my team otherwise it means you're with them and so you're wrong and my enemy" No, you can both be wrong and right.

Or, which is more likely in political discussions online, everyone is wrong.

Handala Team claimed responsibility for the attack. They are a known entity. CNN's lack of depth failed to surface the relevant details, but other news organizations do provide more context. This thread on the Krebs Security post has more discussion. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47346091
