Despite the show of 180 missiles that Iran fired into Israel, the Islamic Republic has been on edge ever since Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was eliminated, and it remains nervous about Israel’s reach, especially after the death of Hizballah’s Hassan Nasrallah. No one knows which jihad leader Israel will choose to be its next target. As the report below shows, Iran has every reason to be nervous, despite its characteristic bravado.
As for the missile attack, Netanyahu has vowed that Tehran “will pay for it.”
Iran is the head of the snake. Israel must do whatever it takes now to protect its nation and stop Iran. Tensions are particularly high before the American election, which will have a significant impact the Middle East. If Harris wins, she would betray Israel even more than Biden has. If Donald Trump wins, then Iran knows what’s coming: crippling sanctions as well as reliable backup for Israel.
“Exclusive: Iran’s Khamenei warned Nasrallah of Israeli plot to kill him, sources say,” by Samia Nakhoul and Laila Bassam, Reuters, October 2, 2024:
DUBAI/BEIRUT, Oct 2 (Reuters) – Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned Hezbollah leader Syyed Hassan Nasrallah to flee Lebanon days before he was killed in an Israeli strike and is now deeply worried about Israeli infiltration of senior government ranks in Tehran, three Iranian sources said.
In the immediate aftermath of the attack on Hezbollah’s booby-trapped pagers on Sept. 17, Khamenei sent a message with an envoy to beseech the Hezbollah secretary general to leave for Iran, citing intelligence reports that suggested Israel had operatives within Hezbollah and was planning to kill him, one of the sources, a senior Iranian official, told Reuters.
The messenger, the official said, was a senior Iranian Revolutionary Guards commander, Brigadier General Abbas Nilforoushan, who was with Nasrallah in his bunker when it was hit by Israeli bombs and was also killed.
Khamenei, who has remained in a secure location inside Iran since Saturday, personally ordered a barrage of around 200 missiles to be fired at Israel on Tuesday, a senior Iranian official said. The attack was retaliation for the deaths of Nasrallah and Nilforoushan, the Revolutionary Guards said in a statement…..

And the “messenger” also bought the farm. the next guy to be picked as an “envoy” may just not show up.

i think the actual owner of the land of Israel{“MY LAND” Jeremiah 2:7} has given enough clues to Hizbollah/islamic nations of the consequences awaiting them{Zechariah 12-14}

But where would Nasrallah have fled? Israel showed what it can do by getting rid of Haniyeh (granted, they haven’t officially admitted that they did it), so it’s not like he’d have been safe in Teheran had he fled there
Dearborn, maybe? Then Israel would have had to send him pagers

Here’s yet another irony: the pager was invented by a Jewish man named Al Gross (I think he was a Canadian-American).
