330 Against Israel
Iran just sent 330 drones and missiles from own territory to Israel. In spite of Israeli statements – the Iranian attack DID penetrate Israel’s defenses, see this.
The Israeli generals don’t look happy.
This Will Explode
Israel will retaliate.
Iran is already prepared to escalate on an even MUCH larger scale.
Iran’s response to any action will be much greater, see this.
There is no way Israel will sit down and say “let’s call it a day”. Israel will have to respond even bigger, and Iran’s next wave of attack will be even bigger yet. How big? Well – credible sources say that Hezbollah has got 150,000 missiles. Imagine Iran having many times that number of missiles prepared. Israel will be overwhelmed and smashed.
Israel Has Limited Magazines
The thing is, that no matter how well Israel’s air defense is, it only has a finite number of missiles to shoot down enemy attacks. It’s called “limited magazine depth“. Iran expects most the drones and missiles in its first waves of attack to be shot own – that’s part of the plan: To empty Israel’s air defense magazines. Once that is achieved, Iran will have free rein to hit anywhere in Israel – just like Russia has it in Ukraine.
And yes – Israel is helping Ukraine, so Russia is no doubt helping Iran right now.
It is important to note how self-confident Iran is in going up against Israel and even the USA. Iran deliberately attacked Israel at the moment when such an attack was MOST expected. This is contrary to the element of surprise.
Iran says: We are strong enough – we even warn you before we hit you.
The operation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps was carried out while the world media was reporting that it was imminent.
The maximum preparedness of the Zionist regime and the political, diplomatic, intelligence and military support of the United States and other regime-friendly countries had created the suspicion that Iran’s military action would be neutralized by the systems of this regime and its allies. But despite the expectation of the Zionists to counter Iran’s weapons, there are many images of lightning strikes of our country’s drones and missiles on military targets and the failure of the American and British defense systems. The extent of the operations, their accuracy and pinpointing, shocked and surprised the Zionists. See this.
Iran also explains in detail how this first attack was carefully designed not to hit civilian or residential areas of Israel. What happens when this escalates in following waves, we can easily imagine.
Both sides are boasting of course. But with the report in the Middle East Eye (link above) that Iran already struck an Israeli airbase, we already see evidence for Iran’s claims to have hit strategic targets in Israel.
The Nuclear Element
The NUCLEAR element is important too. Everybody knows that Israel has got at least 200-300 nuclear weapons. According to one extremely well informed source, Israeli threatened Syria with nuclear attack during the 1973, and that is why Syria stopped the war back then. But Iran is different. Everybody knows that Iran for a long time has had enough nuclear material to build nuclear weapons. And we can be sure, that Iran the past 6 months has prepared for going nuclear. As both sides have nuclear capabilities, it means, that Israel now in 2024 against Iran does NOT control the upper end of the escalation, nuclear war.
Big War – And the US Is in It
This is already a huge Middle East war and it is about to escalate and expand both vertically and horizontally. No doubt. Russia and China have coordinated the playbook with even Türkiye and Saudi Arabia. With Biden’s stupid comments the past days to “defend Israel” we know two things:
- Biden will NOT cut weapons supplies – Netanyahu has carte-blanche to continue genocide.
- US has already been attacked recently, and will be fighting against Iran, Hezbollah, and many others – VERY soon.
US is losing in Ukraine.
US is at risk around Taiwan.
Already, US troops in Syria, Jordan, and Iraq have been targeted. And with Biden’s support to fight for Israel, we know that US supply of weapons for Israel’s genocide will continue. The US is already fully into this war. Gulf States friendly to the US have already told the US not to use bases in their countries to attack Iran – but the US will disregard the wishes of its host countries. As the war escalates, US troops in Jordan, Syria, Iraq and elsewhere will be “removed” and the US will soon find itself fighting against Iran and others. This is a war the US cannot win.
How dumb is that for the USA?
