Scoop: Iran warns U.S. to stay out of fight with Israel or face attack on troops
Axios ^ | 4/12/2024 | Barak Ravid

Posted on 04/12/2024 8:55:29 AM PDT by marcusmaximus

Iran sent a message to the Biden administration through several Arab countries earlier this week: if the U.S. gets involved in the fighting between Israel and Iran, U.S. forces in the region will be attacked, three U.S. officials told Axios.

Why it matters:

The U.S. and Israel are preparing for Iran to retaliate against Israel for an airstrike that killed a top Iranian general in Damascus last week.

The Iranian supreme leader has threatened "punishment" for Israel but through private channels Iran has signaled it would be limited.

Israel and the U.S. think an Iranian attack would include the launch of ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and attack drones from Iran to Israeli territory.

U.S. officials say the Biden administration asked Israel to notify the U.S. and for the U.S. to have a say before decisions are made about any retaliation by Israel.

Why does a Jew hater have 60% Jews in his Administration?
Why were all three adult children married to Jews?

All you do is whine. It gives people reason to hate you.

Yep, it’s all shaping up, just as the Bible predicted. And we have the OBiden regime to thank for hastening it.

Biden doesn’t want gas prices higher because of the upcoming election and will no doubt dissuade Israel from doing that.

Looks like the attack is starting now...

Well, there is s split now between most of Israel and American JewLiberals, who have faced a backlash from their Leftist buddies over the Gaza War.

American JewLiberals, displaying their usual “selflessness, want the Gaza war to stop immediately so they won’t have any inconvenient hostility from their fellow Leftists. That’s the group Biden represents.

I don’t consider Israel an ally.
I also don’t care about Jewish “civil war”.

Their schizophrenia is theirs, not ours.

They want Iran to attack to pull the US in.

Time to turn Iran into a glass parking lot. I’ve been saying this since Jimmy ‘The Peanut’ Carter!

Dear Iran,

The U-S has the following response to your “warning”:

Bring it, Mohammed.

Did you not learn anything from the last time you trifled with us? Did you REALLY think that we’d just pack up and go home?

You pays your money and you takes your chances. We can turn Iran into a fused glass parking lot faster than you can say “Death to America.

Ore, to put it more succinctly,

Footage showing Dozens of Interceptions by the Israeli Iron Dome and MIM-104 “Patriot” Air Defense Batteries over Northern Israel within the last few minutes following a Large Barrage of Rockets and Drones launched by Hezbollah in Southern Lebanon; in my opinion this could be an attempt to Exhaust the Stocks of Israeli Surface-to-Air Missile Batteries in the North of the Country, before a Larger Attack using Land-Attack Cruise and other more Advanced Missiles.

“They want Iran to attack to pull the US in. “


That is absolutely insane.

Israel bombs an embassy, which would be a huge crime if it was done by Iran or Russia.

So after Iran retaliates, the USA plans to join Israel in the response ?

Brandon and his gang have gone totally schizo.

The USA and its “Allies” can’t keep the Red Sea and Suez Canal open against Houthi terrorists, so now they decide to escalate to a wider regional war ?

MIM-104 Patriot: designed in Sweet Home Alabama.

But even new versions of it has limits. Most notably if there are too many enemy rockets coming in.

Yep swarms are a problem. And it looks like Hezbollah is firing off it’s cheap grad rockets first to get Israel to exhaust its supply of Iron Dome missiles so it can follow up with its more advanced and accurate missiles. Looks like we are in store for a wild weekend over there.

Absolutely. They are getting ready for it.

If they really do this, God knows what they will do in Ukraine.

Has anybody asked Jordan, Iraq, and/or Saudi Arabia what any of them think about their airspace being used if Israel and Iran fly planes and missiles at each other?

If Iran and its proxies in Lebanon and Syria launched All That They Had at Israel, is that enough to overcome Iron Dome and Patriot defenses and put serious hurt on Israel?
