Iran's foreign minister, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, threatened Israel hours after the assassination of Sayyed Reza Mousavi, a senior commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps based in Syria. "Tel Aviv should count down," he warned.

Hezbollah also reacted to Reza Mousavi's assassination calling it a "blatant attack that crosses the line." Hezbollah called Mousavi "one of the best brothers who worked to support Hezbollah in Lebanon for decades." The terrorist organization also said in a statement that he "was dedicated to serving the resistance and its fighters and is a brother in arms. We send our condolences to Ali Khamenei, to the leadership of the Revolutionary Guards in Iran, to his family and to the Iranian people."

I think Iran will try to nuke Tel Aviv in the near future. I think the attempt will fail.

“the resistance and its fighters and is a brother in arms.”

So, people who slit throats in the dark and behead babies are “fighters”? I can think of a more appropriate adjective for such people.

Isn’t Iran the same country the U.S. sold uranium yellowcake to, awhile back?

The killing of the Iranian goat humper is a good tactical move on Israel’s part and probably why they did. Draw Iran into direct involvement. The mullah regime meddling wouldn’t be too popular with most Iranians tired of the mullocracy’s constant agitation.

Sounds like this just proves Iran is the main problem and instigator.

Missing Tel Aviv homos and seculars would be an improvement in Israeli election results. They should be careful what they wish for.

Israel is at war. Enemy commanders are valid targets in a war. Iran is a sponsor of the war against Israel and supplies commanders for that war. That makes anything Iranian a valid target.

Lessons to which we had best pay attention in the Ukraine. We have too many American "advisors" there. They are targets as well.

And as for the American troops in Syrian and Iraqi bases? WTF are they still doing there? And if they do need to be there, why do they have such absurd rules of engagement?

Proportional response and defensive-only measures are for losers. If our guys get hit, we should be wiping out the place where the enemy fighters came from - along with all of the enemy fighters. And we should hit them again when they try to regroup.

No apologies needed.

The Iranians sure like letting their mouths write checks that their fannies can’t cash.

Bad news morons: there is Someone Who will cash those checks and they will NOT like the payout.
