This retired General doesn’t have a clue.

Israel: " Bombs Iran consulate and Kills top generals" US after 17 days: " We are still investigating and we still don't know what happened or who did what" US: " Iran should not respond and only Israel has right of self defense"
-
Yes. I'll believe whatever former commander of Iraq fiasco will say. Mission accomplished.
-
Israel....don't 😂
-
Iran gets condemned?, but Israel’s all good for starting this entire thing? Oh the hypocrisy.
-
If you say ANYTHING... YOU get labeled... A HUMAN BEING!
-
Israel must calculate the second iran response if they trying to respond to the iran first attacks..
-
Iran thought they are winning. 300 drones missiles launched and all it did was make craters on sand😅 what are they smoking in their country?
-
Really he is not saying anything worthwhile.

A lot of western analysts like to say the attack was a failure but they simply cannot accept that fact that a non western state was able to score a strategic over the US/Israel and their allies. 1. The Iranians gave. 72 hour warning and this gave plenty of time to prepare defences to shoot the drones. 2. The drones were sent to be shot down to drain the air defences. This gave valuable data to the Iranians about how the Israeli would responses and from where and how quickly . 3. It cost altogether nearly 1.3 to 2 billion to defend against 25 to 50 million dollar attack. This is unsustainable in for more than a few days.Iran has the hundreds of thousands of rocket and missiles as does it allies. They could saturate Israel for long periods of time. It was quoted by Israeli journalist that if the people could hear the discussion in the war room that 4 million people would be at Ben Gurion airport. 4. The Nevadim airbase is the most heavily protected place in the world with the multiples layers of air defence yet it was struck about 15 timees with ballistic missiles. Iran just demonstrated a proof of concept that they can if they want target anywhere in Israel and destroy it at will. That does not sound like a failure which western media likes to say. If it was a failure why is Israel so desperate to retaliate.

But then--assuming Israeli military and government weighs second and third effects--why did Israel attack the Iranian consulate in the first place? Can't we get an answer to that?

I’m confused about what this so called distinguished fellow is saying Each time rockets were fired from Gaza they responded in minutes - no thought process at all Strangely when the opponent is also armed there is a lot more deliberation— makes one think 🤔 I’m all for deescalation though
-
EID Mubarak to all of you
-
another one that has no clue
-
THE WAR HAS STARTED
-

-
