It's too late now. If it doesn't come tonight then we 'time and place of our choosing' means never going to happen. The way they're restraining Hezbollah too is a sign nothing will happen. US says it doesn't want this war to spread, and resistance axis is complying which is increasing Gaza's isolation. It's not in Israel's interests to be fight another front. There will be lots of excuses to not respond regardless. Probably because any Iran strike means Israel will easily do strikes on Iran from Iraqi airspace which won't hurt Iran but more so embarrass them and Iranian regime can't take that humiliation right now. They won't be able to stop some airstrikes from Israeli jets in Iraqi airspace. Few weeks everyone will have forgotten. It doesn't take weeks to muster up a response. That just means a response was not considered a option and taken off the table. Israel will do such strikes again at random times just because they can there isn't a threat to them and Iran and Hezbollah are mostly complying to keep war isolated to Gaza.

They have international legitimacy to respond but window is quickly closing. Worst Israel can do is some strikes on Iran from Iraqi airspace. Iranian regime is probably worried that becomes a weekly or monthly occurrence if they respond. Or Israel attacks Hezbollah. Basically resistance axis lacks political will to confront Israel and it was shown by their reaction to war in Gaza and likely won't change.
 
This is why I miss the former (USSR) Soviets. None of this crap would be happening. The West would not be this stupid in their presence.

Key to IR regime is their survival. Anything that might threaten their survival will be dealt with. If confronting Israel face to face is a threat to their survival then it means it will not happen. Simple as that.

ps: an active observer on Iranian politics the past 25 years.
 
As much beating and annihilation Israel deserves, now is not the time for it. Iran has a massive problem with its air force as of now. they need to resolve it. Israel will loose its edge with time. Think with an open mind and no need to be emotional. Time is against Israel and they know it. No need to play their game, things will be very different 10 years down the line.... just 10 years!

But why does Iran expose its military officers in Syria to attack. Iran also has to be blamed for lack of vision. It is not the first time terrorists state ISrael has carried out and attacked Iranians staff in Syria & Lebanon.

They have to protect assad and land route to Lebanon
 
Now Israel is aiming to kill itself and force the United States to end up in the Middle East [by attacking Rafah and bombing the Iranian embassy], and what the United States is doing is trying to prop up a puppet regime so that even if the two-state solution is implemented, it can not establish Palestine on the 1948 borders

Not true at all. US took several days to respond to attack on its US base in Jordan. Iran took several days to respond to Solemani assassination.

I would say Iran has till Friday to respond, latest by Sunday. If it doesn’t happen by end of this week, then you are correct.

US general never got killed in attacks. US was essentially giving Iraqi government time and Biden had to approve options to strike at Iraqi groups. It's a different situation.

Iran approach to US is different than Israel. It can't risk a war with the US and thus took time to respond and send messages through mediators. With Israel I doubt they have indirect communication of any kind, and I'm doubtful Iran would give Israel a warning beforehand. The situation with Israel is different. Waiting till end of week doesn't add to anything. I think we can safely assume there won't be a direct response of any sort from Iranian territory. And Iran does not intelligence nor operational capability to go after actual culprits (Israeli government and military leaders).

That's my two cents.

My long term assessment of the Israeli problem is that as predicted in Islamic prophecies Israel will cease to exist some time in the future. They have already justified their extermination and it will happen, inshallah.

Before Israel is finished off their protectors will have to be destroyed. It is beyond the capability of Muslims to do that. Therefore, has to be an act of God to cripple Israel's protectors.

What needs to be seen is how God will bring down Israel's protectors. There is no doubt that it will happen. How and when is the question. Once the protector is gone then Muslims will be able to finish off this satanic entity.

Israel's actions in slaughtering Muslims is speeding up the time of their demise.

Demise of west and rise of China and East Asia will be the end of that Zionist cancer...there's a reason zionists are the biggest and nastiest attackers of China and it's rise.

We are looking at anywhere between 50 to 100 years...
 
Funny thing is after almost every Israeli strike the mullahs always attack some American base or building. It seems the mullahs are far more convenient in attacking America than Israel because it knows Joe Hassan Biden never has any intention to harm them.

Telaviv is much safer than US bases or villas of Kurdish businessmen!

Correct but for IR the regime stability and survival are much more important than a phony fight vs Israel.

A direct fight with Israel will bring instability to the regime.
