US intelligence: This will be the Iranian retaliation
Israel National News ^ | 4/5/24 | staff

Posted on 04/06/2024 3:30:53 PM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

The US has picked up intelligence on what an Iranian retaliatory strike for the alleged Israeli strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus in which a senior member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards was eliminated, will look like, CBS News reported on Friday.

According to the report, the American intelligence indicates that Iran is planning a retaliatory attack that would include a swarm of Shaheed loitering drones and cruise missiles.

Officials quoted in the report say the timing and target are unknown, but a proportional response to the Damascus attack would be to hit an Israeli diplomatic facility.

The attack is likely to come between now and the end of Ramadan next week, according to CBS News.

Another important unknown is where the drones and missiles would be launched — from Iraq or Syria, which could prompt a thin claim of deniability by Tehran — or from Iranian territory.

It may not be an attack in the Middle East.

I'm worried it could be here in the US. I hope people are prepared.

I am.

The would not retaliate on anything American if Trump were in charge. They know what would happen if they did.

It will be like the last one after Trump killed Solimani, they will tell us ahead of time and program their missiles to miss the target by a 100 yards or so. They can brag to their people and avoid killing any Americans or Israelis to justify further attacks on Iran.

US “intelligence” missed:

1. 500,000 Chicomms mustered on the Korean border in 1950.

2. Tet.

3. Fall of Berlin wall.

4. 9-11.

5. Etc.

I don't believe that Israel has formally declared that they were the ones who blew up the consulate. They have attacked Iran in many ways in the past without "owning up" to any of those acts.

If Iran uses one of its surrogates to make the attack, and lets all of its other surrogates know it was them, then that will be enough to assuage the radicals.

Personally I believe that the Biden administration is hoping and praying (to Allah perhaps?) that Iran will do nothing. I don't think the Biden administration would be helped by a wider war in the Middle East.

I wonder if the FBI and CIA still think they have any credibility with anyone but their commie pig masters.

The question is, why does the Biden regime continue to protect fund and enable these Islamonazi aggressors?

He’s on their side.

Yes that is clearly true. Biden is on the side of evil and all
If the anti- American dictatorships or Arab terrorist murder gangs

It has to be for money or else they’ve threatened him or just have something in him or maybe his boy is selling his “favors” like he apparently did with Ukraine and communist China and..?

Don’t these cultists also believe that they get extra bonus virgins if they murder during the “holy” month of Ramadan? That would point to a strike in the next week.

Actually, yes. During Ramadan if you die you enter heaven directly, "without accountibility." This is why terror attacks are always higher during Ramadan, because Islamic "scholars" say you cannot go to hell for murder during the "holy" month, citing this verse:

The Messenger (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “When Ramadan comes, the gates of Paradise are opened and the gates of Hell are closed and the devils are chained up.”

Israel also has a sub-launched, nuclear-capable version of their Popeye Turbo missile, with a 2,000km range.
