Israel’s foreign minister threatened Wednesday that his country’s forces would strike Iran directly if the Islamic Republic launched an attack from its territory against Israel, as tensions between the rival powers flare following the killings of Iranian generals in a blast at the Iranian consulate in Syria.
“If Iran attacks from its territory, Israel will respond and attack in Iran,” Israel Katz said in a post on X in both Farsi and Hebrew.
The remarks came after Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei reiterated early Wednesday a promise to retaliate against Israel over the attack on its consulate in Damascus earlier this month.
That… seems logical.
Would anyone have thought differently?
No it’s not, because Israel struck Iran first, and now they’re trying to play the victim.
Sure, but it still seems logical to me that if Iran strikes Israel directly, Israel will strike Iran back. That’s what literally any country would do if another country attacked them directly. I’m only surprised Iran hasn’t already retaliated for Israel’s attack on them in Damascus.
I think you’re missing the main point. Iran hasn’t shrugged off the facts that Is(not)real, and Iran gave a verbal warning. Which Is(not)real has not taken accountability or even given Iranian government a heads up about one consulate buildings with 12 DEAD…
Iran is used to having their assets destroyed in Syria by Israel. That’s why
Israel attacks Iran, then immediately tries to claim they’re the victim like every other fascist group.
It’s fucking disgusting Biden is willing to risk letting trump win the election because Biden won’t stop supporting this genocide none of his voters want.
He cares more about Israel than America.
Well, what a pickle Iran had put themselves in.
First they promised to punish Israel with “brave men”, only to try to use the Palestinian suffering as a shield to get out of threats they didn’t think through before making them. Now Israel responds, as expected, that they are not backing down an inch.
One might wonder that if Iran was so keen on helping the Palestinians and having all those “brave men”, why not attack Israel to help the Palestinians instead of hiding behind their suffering like a coward?
Yo, Iran… Maybe not sponsor terrorism and maybe not escalate the situation further? Maybe actually let your love for the Palestinians, and not your hate for Israel, guide you?
Truth down voted by offended tankies, who are so anti West and anti Israel that they will side with a literal autocratic theocratic terrorist state that kills its own people and brutally subjugates its women and dissenters and sponsors terrorism all across that region. It’s apparent that these stupid fucks have never lived in an Islamic country.
“literal autocratic theocratic terrorist state that kills its own people and brutally subjugates dissenters” An apt description of Israel.
I wonder if a war between Israel and Iran would distract Israel enough to slow down the Gaza genocide.
They’re going to get shut down in Gaza, so Netanyahu needs another distraction from his corruption trial.
