Iran expected to attack Israel as early as Monday, US officials arrive in Middle East - report
The Jerusalem Post ^ | AUGUST 4, 2024

Posted on 08/04/2024 8:45:44 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps said on Saturday that revenge will be “severe and at an appropriate time, place, and manner,” blaming the “terrorist Zionist regime” for Haniyeh’s death. The Iranian attack on Israel in response to the assassination of Hamas political bureau leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran last week is expected to come as early as Monday, three US and Israeli officials told Axios reporter Barak Ravid on Sunday.

Michael Erik Kurilla, commander of US Central Command, arrived in the Middle East early Sunday morning amid Hezbollah and Iran's threats against Israel, Walla reported on Sunday, citing two senior US officials.

The aim of the visit, which was planned before the current escalation, is to prepare a coalition to counter such threats, the report added.

Israel on high alert at Iran threatens revenge Several Iranian officials vowed that the country would avenge Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh’s assassination, as Israel remains on high alert for a potential attack and the United States is sending additional forces to the region.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps said on Saturday that revenge will be “severe and at an appropriate time, place, and manner,” blaming the “terrorist Zionist regime” for Haniyeh’s death.

In addition, the Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations told CBS News in an exclusive on Friday that Hezbollah would begin deliberately targeting Israeli civilians – claiming that it had not done so until now.

Sure glad we have a strong US President with an astute sense of reason during a crisis such as this...

Especially since he'll be able to harness the keen wisdom of his Vice President.

The world has nothing to fear.

Iran has neither the sophisticated weapons or the capability to attack Israel conventionally. If there is to be an attack suspect it will be a terrorist big bang at a public target utilizing the fact that over 100,000 thousand Palestinians work daily within the open , complex Israeli society. For instance who mops the floors, cleans the bathrooms and cooks the food at the Knesset? Hard for security to monitor them all especially after the faces become familiar.

Ask Iran if they would kindly hold off until the Dim convention so Kamala will have to say something about it.

Let’s see. Iran is as far from Israel as Israel is from Iran-right? So the Israelis are tight-close knit. Got their excrement together in a way that allows them to do their damage from the distance described. Iran has to depend on it’s proxies in Lebanon to get back at the Jooz. Do you think the Jooz are not prepared for such an action? after dealing with it for all these years? Gonna be awesome and the rest of the Arabs will cheer.

“Hard for security to monitor them all especially after the faces become familiar.”

Which is why every citizen age 16 and over should be armed.

Israel will kick ass.

The US "leadership" will wring their faggot (literally in many cases) hands.

Nobody will ask Harris a single question - even though she is as dangerous as they come, due to her complete and utter lack of thought cognition and mental aptitude.

I would say she's an idiot, but I don't want to offend idiots.

Not trying to be mean to her - just calling it the way it is.

Obama, Biden, Schumer, Pelosi, etc are all slime bags - but I wouldn't call them stupid. Harris is the definition of stupid.

Why does your post bring to mind a picture of Kevin Bacon in a disheveled ROTSEE uniform.

Israel has the ability to wreak devastation on the Iranian regime by targeting their leadership compounds, secret police facilities, oil and gas refining and transport, electricity production and transmission, and key military bases. Iran knows this and will calibrate their attack according to how much they want to get hit in return by Israel.

Who is the Commander In Chief? because it’s clearly not Jao Bai-din.

Good question. He has been MIA. Last public appearance, IIRC, was Monday, so almost a full week.

Strange that everyone seems to know when the attack will take place. Also it was nice of Iran to wait until the second US carrier group was in place.
