Little know secret(/s) - Israel has been preparing for war with Iran for decades and Iran has been preparing for war with Israel for almost the same amount of time.
Yes. It’s just that Amir notes that there seems to be a difference this time. The fact that the Defense Minister publicly stated they were preparing for war the way he did was not familiar. The fighter jets fly over armed. Some members of the public think this is ‘real’ this time.
Shhh—don’t tell anyone!
