It’s getting serious! Drones on the way as I type.
Except:
… Iran has launched drones at Israel, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said, appearing to mark a widely anticipated reprisal attack.
The IDF said the wave could take hours to reach Israel, a distance of 1,100 miles (1,800km).
It said Israeli forces were on high alert and “monitoring all targets”.
Iran had vowed to retaliate after an attack on its consulate in Syria on 1 April - for which it blamed Israel - killed several Iranian commanders.
…, Tel Aviv — Israel is bracing for a worst-case scenario that U.S. officials believe could materialize within just hours — the possibility of a direct attack on Israeli soil by Iran in retaliation for a strike almost two weeks ago that killed seven Iranian military officers. Iran has vowed to take revenge for Israel killing its commanders, who were hit by an April 1 strike on the Iranian embassy in Syria’s capital.
…
Two U.S. officials told CBS News that a major Iranian attack against Israel was expected as soon as Friday, possibly to include more than 100 drones and dozens of missiles aimed at military targets inside the country. Sources have told CBS News the retaliation could include attacks carried out both by Iranian forces, and proxy groups around the region that it has been funnelling additional arms to for weeks.

The dictatorship of Iran is indeed a dictatorship. They are conducting a “propaganda” reprisal. The dictatorship engages in a full time war? They are putting themselves in a direct line of a populace uprising and will risk to be overthrown. They have been close to an overthrow multiple times.
Well they were going to retaliate for the blowing up of their people. It’s been highly telegraphed by design. Big show of force that’s going to be heavily intercepted with some damage but nothing like could escalate to regional conflict or heavily draw in the US.
Netanyahu already said Israeli response would be “firm and clear” so this isn’t over yet. This may be the green light to take out all the Iranian nuclear sites. No way to predict this, which is the scary part.
Also true, I’ll say this too as this has been so advertised and everyone is on such high alert for this retaliation. If anything major gets through it’s because Bibi and cohorts wanted it too.
Just realized I basically said the same thing but more specifically.
The MAGA led Republican party is really hamstringing US foreign policy and doing the bidding of Putin.
In Ukrain, the lack of support helps Putin but it is also causing a power vacuum with our allies. Macron.and France are looking to fill the lacknof leadership we are showing. It is also demonstraing to our Allies we can not be counted on to help our allies so will they be there for us if we need them.
Russia and China are seeing the influence they have paid for by buying the MAGA GOP and will push Iran to get bolder with Israel.
They have their social media pushing pro Palestinian anti Israel information targeted to younger americans to further divide us as a nation.
Iran is acting with the full support of Russia and China knowing their efforts to cripple us with division is working.
We will know more after we see what Israel does in response. My guess is they go after the drone factories, and maybe the sites that process uranium. Remember, the peeps in Iran won’t know the missiles and drones were intercepted. Iranian media is showing video from the fires in Texas as damage done to Israel. smh
