Operation True Promise II - dozens of Iranian ballistic missiles hit Israel

[muhammed45]

When it becomes a real problem, they will make up new laws to revoke citizenship and expel anyone who says one wrong word. Remember, Israel can get away with things that would be called barbaric, terrorist, or human rights abuse by any other country.

Israel is 'special' and they know it.

We will turn the tide. Slowly but surely

Good one but, worst case scenario for Israel after excessive damage to it would be US intervention or even nuke laden Israeli jerichos landing all over Iran.

Also, I wonder if it will be a good idea for Pakistan to secretly send some of their MIRV/MARV systems like ababeel and shaheen 3 to Iran to test against heavy Israeli defenses. It will help us understand how it performs in real war scenarios against Israeli AD and also then we will be able to say we did something for Palestine?

this video shows 9-10 David's Sling "Stunner" interceptors being launched, they all miss the incoming missile warheads, and then self-destruct!

total failure of air defence! each interceptor costs $1 million

By the way, you can see a David's Sling interception here at the start of the video

It's interesting, it was a kinetic hit, but only one interceptor was fired. This could mean they are confident in the missiles ability to hit a target, or maybe Israeli radars cannot track that many targets at once?

Maybe they only target certain missiles they thought were going to hit while ignoring others?

Iran warns of ‘unconventional response’ in case of new Israeli attack​

In indirect message to the US via Qatar, Iran says it doesn’t want a regional war, but that Israel must be ‘deterred’, an Iranian official tells Al Jazeera.

Iran has told the United States via an intermediary that any Israeli attack against Iran would meet an “unconventional response” that includes targeting Israeli infrastructure.

In exclusive remarks to Al Jazeera, an Iranian official said on Thursday that his country has sent a message to the US, via Qatar, addressing rising regional tensions after Iran’s missile attack on Israel.

​

In the message, Tehran told Washington that “the phase of unilateral self-restraint has ended”, adding that “individual self-restraint does not secure our national security requirements”.

The indirect message also emphasised that Iran does not want a regional war, the official said.

On Wednesday, Israel pledged to respond after Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) fired a two-wave ballistic missile attack at military and security targets in Israel.


Iran says Tuesday’s missile attack was in response to Israeli attacks on the besieged Gaza Strip and Lebanon, and the killing of key officials in Hezbollah and the Palestinian group Hamas.

The salvo of about 200 projectiles caused no casualties as most missiles were intercepted, according to the Israeli army.

The US has repeatedly promised to back its close ally Israel.

Al Jazeera’s Kimberly Halkett, reporting from Washington, said Iran’s message sent to the US appeared to be a response to President Joe Biden’s comments on Wednesday in which he said Israel had the right to respond to the missile attack.

“Biden said Israel has the right to retaliate for the recent Iranian strikes, unlike what happened in April when Iran targeted Israel and the White House cautioned Israel not to respond,” Halkett said.

The Iranian message could be interpreted in one of two ways, she said.

“It could mean, ‘We don’t want you to do anything, we’re trying to deter that,’ or it could be a warning: ‘You take action and our response is going to be even bigger,’” Halkett said.

‘Tough consequences’​

The Iranian official who spoke to Al Jazeera said that in the message to the US, Iran reiterated the need to curb Israel “and its unbridled madness” in the region.

Israel this week sent ground troops into southern Lebanon in what it described as “limited” raids and has continued to bombard the country, including its capital Beirut, for nearly two weeks. Its attacks have so far killed more than 1,000 people, and displaced more than 1 million from their homes, according to Lebanese officials.

It has also continued its deadly assault on Gaza, which it launched nearly a year ago.

Some 90 percent of the enclave’s population has been displaced and Israeli forces have been accused of exacerbating an already dire humanitarian and hunger crisis by obstructing the supply of aid.

More than 41,000 people have been killed in the Israeli assault, the majority women and children, according to Palestinian authorities. Israel says it is fighting Hamas “targets and infrastructure” in the campaign.

Israel must be “deterred practically”, the Iranian official said.

Tohid Asadi, a writer and Iranian affairs specialist, told Al Jazeera that while Iran had no interest in “dragging the entire west Asia into a full-fledged, all-out war scenario”, Israel has continued to test it in the last few months.

“With the developments, we are observing these days, we are seeing and hearing a sort of double-edged statement by Iranian officials,” Asadi said.

“On one hand, they claim they are not interested in war … at the same time, they’re saying they’re not afraid of war,” he said. The comments suggest that in case of any further aggression, there would be “tough consequences”.

“The message clearly heard from Tehran these days is that it’s not going to patient any more because its patience has limits,” he said.

Elijah Magnier, a military analyst, agreed. He told Al Jazeera that Iran has two choices: either “wait until all of its allies are defeated and then its turn will come to be attacked by Israel”, or “join the battle now”.

“Iran will not tolerate any Israeli attack, even against military facilities or security facilities because Iran … considers they are now even … Israel hit twice, Iran hit twice,” he said.

This could be first major indication by Iran that it possesses nukes now. This could be the basically first time Iran pretty much telling that it has nukes.

The salvo of about 200 projectiles caused no casualties as most missiles were intercepted, according to the Israeli army.

Arab media parroting Israeli propaganda.

Al Jazeera could have added that 'There was no independent verification of the Israeli claims."

I have always said this... Iran is just A TEST AWAY NUCLEAR POWER....
There are other hidden nuclear powers as well on this planet.... names would be shocking....

A few observations so far

• Iranian leadership showed allot of restraint, they told Russia/US a few hours in advance the targets they were going to hit thereby reducing changes of casualties.
• Iranian missiles showed some decent accuracy hitting hangers. Some also have landed far off but unknown if the one outside of Mossad HQ was deliberate or not.
• The attack was very calibrated to avoid any deaths that was more or less achieved (Palestinian died from booster rocket falling on them).
• In one video alone we see c.30 missiles hit a location thought to be one of Israels main airbases, the Israeli, US and genocide coalitions air defences failed overall miserably, billions of dollars down the drain. Yes there were interceptions but the rate is massively disputed.
• Israel has lost the initial momentum it had with the pager terrorism, killing Hamas/Hezbollah leaders.
• Israel will likely retaliate but its put them in a bind because they know a greater response is likely from Iran which could this time hurt them much more and will not allow them to focus on Lebanon.

Let me ad that this retaliation shows high reliability of ballistic misiles. No one has misfired in Irak or Jordania. No malfuncion and falling over cities or villages. At much problems with 1 stages of the engines.

Your buddy India can’t do what Iran pulled 3 days ago. You understand me now, don’t you?

We’ve been telling you this for months, and you’d laugh it off like a child?

You thought everyone tells porkies here?

Keep India out of this.

eager to hear those names

I had few years back read an article in very reliable mainstream but local Indian news paper (this is the leading local news paper of Maharashtra, India), that there are hidden nuclear powers in this world who either have nukes ready or they are capable of building them on very short notice but they never declare it for their own reasons....

Egypt - (As per article Soviet nukes which they stationed in Egypt in cold war are still with Egypt and they are actually gifted to them permanently.... Only they are older designs and large in size so cannot be used in tactical nuclear warfare)

Argentina - easily capable of building nukes but not making it or if has made not testing

Brazil - Same as Argentina

South Africa - Built nukes tested in south IOR and dismantled the same...

Israel - Yes they have it in the form of Jerico missiles... perhaps as advanced as USA, UK nukes...

Myanmar - capable of building nukes (thanks to China) and few nukes facilities were even declared by America....

Iran - Already a test away nuclear power.... these are the words from that article....

Ukraine - the idiot already gave up....

Japan, Canada, Italy, Swidden are all capable but not making due to their policies...
