“And we prescribed for them in it, Life for life, and eye for eye, and nose for nose, and ear for ear, and tooth for tooth, and retaliation for injuries.” (Qur’an 5:45)
Khamenei, like all jihad leaders, treats a strike back after his aggression as a gratuitous attack that must be avenged. As if he hasn’t been waging proxy war against Israel for nine months, and Haniyeh was peacefully picking daisies in Tehran before the Israelis killed him. And people will fall for this.
Will this be a ground invasion? Unlikely. But it will be something. Will the Biden regime betray Israel again? Watch for it.
“Iran’s supreme leader orders strike on Israel to retaliate for Ismail Haniyeh assassination,” by David Propper, New York Post, July 31, 2024:
Iran’s supreme leader ordered a direct strike on Israel hours after top Hamas official Ismail Haniyeh was killed in an airstrike early Wednesday, according to a report Wednesday.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei issued the command during an emergency meeting of the country’s Supreme National Security Council, which convened shortly after the assassination, the New York Times reported, citing three Iranian officials briefed on the matter….
It was not immediately clear what options Iran forces would pursue, but military commanders are considering a combination of drones and missiles that would target military facilities near Tel Aviv and Haifa, according to the Times, citing the Iranian officials.
The strikes would attempt to avoid civilian casualties, the officials claimed….
Khameni [sic] also ordered commanders from the Revolutionary Guards and army to get ready an attack and defensive plans in case the conflict widens with either strikes from Israel or the United States hitting the country, the officials said.
somehistory says
“avoid civilian casualties”….Sure. Hitting the main cities in Israel and “avoiding civilians.”
The military guy….Austin if I recall correctly….told the press that the U.S. would get involved if iran strikes Israel.

That makes me nervous: I wouldn’t put it past this regime to join Iran in a war against Israel
gravenimage says
I don’t think that things are that bad yet, even with the Biden administration. But might it try and stymie Israel’s defence against the Mullahs? All too likely…
somehistory says
“Iran plans to attack Israel on Tisha B’Av – the Jewish day of disasters, Western intelligence says”
“Western intelligence sources told Sky News Arabia that they had evidence Iran plans to attack Israel on Tisha B’Av in response to the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, which begins on August 12 and ends on August 13, the site reported on Friday.
Iran’s attack will reportedly be coordinated with Hezbollah, an Iran-backed terror group embedded in Lebanon.”

The Pentagon will send an additional fighter squadron and more warships to the Middle East to help defend Israel should Iran react militarily to this week’s assassination of Hamas’ top political leader in Tehran that Iran has blamed on Israel.
The United States will also maintain an aircraft carrier presence in the Middle East as Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered the USS Abraham Lincoln to replace the USS Theodore Roosevelt that was on a short-term deployment to the Middle East.
The deployments follow President Joe Biden’s commitment to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday about “new defensive US military deployments” to the region.”

Israel should attack strategic places in Iran including Khamenei’s place, then leave to the Iranian people to finish the Iranian Islamic republic. It is the Biden administration who becomes the obstacle.
Michael Skok says
Don’t they have nuclear reactors? And aren’t they on the verge of building atomic weapons? These facilities should have been destroyed all along.
St Croix says
The Israelis now have justifiable reason to take the whole atomic thing out now, and also all the top Iranian leadership.
It seems obvious to me that Iran wants to move now before Trump is (probably? perhaps?) elected as president. While they have the money, the support of the U.S. in that sense, the appeasement a la Obama that continues.
Whereas Trump will kill that goose that lays golden eggs for Iran. He will immediately cut all funds to Iran and impose gross sanctions on everything coming out of Iran.
In this, he will have the approval and applause of the Iranian people who are rooting for Israel, desiring sanctions as they are already suffering–they don’t see the monies given to Iran, it’s all going to war machine efforts and proxies. They are hoping for the overthrow of the leadership in charge since the revolution, that minority of extremist tyrants who are in control. Whereas the population who don’t hold positions of power, about 85% of the people, profess they are no long Muslim. They are returning to Zoroastrianism, Bahai, and turning as well to Christianity in great numbers despite persecution; many are now atheists as well. They are saying “the Ayatollahs have shown us the true face of Islam.” Also, they know that it was imposed on them all those years ago, and they are sick of the death cult that it is.
David says
I met some young Iranians a few years ago in Lisbon.
As our conversation opened up to Iran and how it was run they made very clear their contempt for the Muslim overlords and were yearning for the day when they would be free of their suffocating influence.

St Croix, I hope Israel *does* take out Iran’s nuclear reactors.
SC says
What is wrong with these retarded morons. They want their virgins so soon. Israel has real Nukes and if they know the end is coming they have nothing to lose if they use them. And frankly Iran deserves the outcome.
STJOHNOFGRAFTON says
Direct strikes against Israel now. Evidently the indirect strikes via poxy proxies showed Iran that it has to pay for the consequences of its perfidy with the IDF’s direct action inside Teheran whose mullahs thought they could safely host a top proxy terror commander with lavish acclamation. Instead he was blown to hell on Iranian soil.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
He can order it, but what if it is intercepted by the Iraqis, Jordanians and us like it was a few months ago?
He’s just been humiliated in his own country, making it as much of a laughing stock as the Biden-Harris administration
OLD GUY says
Khamenei needs to receive an explosive gift celebrating his leaving earth.
Jack Reynolds says
ISRAEL will not use its Nukes, but if the situation deteriorates Dirty Bombs are a REAL POSSIBILITY.

Khamenei orders direct strike on Israel, tells Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps to ready attack plans
……………………………..
Bloody thugs. And how close is Iran to getting nukes and trying to make good their threat to “wipe Israel off the map”?
