Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi on Tuesday claimed that Iran’s ballistic missile attack on Israel was self-defense.
In a post on social media site X, Araqchi also said Iran would not attack Israel again, unless Israel “invites further retaliation”.
“Earlier this evening, we exercised self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter, targeting solely military and security sites in charge of genocide in Gaza and Lebanon,” claimed the Iranian Foreign Minister.
“We did so after exercising tremendous restraint for almost two months, to give space for a ceasefire in Gaza,” he continued.
Araqchi then warned, “Our action is concluded unless [the] Israeli regime decides to invite further retaliation. In that scenario, our response will be stronger and more powerful.”
“Israel's enablers now have a heightened responsibility to rein in the warmongers in Tel Aviv instead of getting involved in their folly,” he stated.

Baghdad Bob, Izzatyou?
Some here think we need to attack Russia in self defense.
Really? Who?
Some here believe Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was in self defense. Hypocrites.
They didn’t attack Israel in defense of their military. They intentionally attacked Israel’s citizenry to kill as many as possible. That’s what they do in the Middle East. Yet they whine over the inflated reported numbers of Gazan “civilians” that were collateral damage in response to the slaughter of Israel citizens who were slaughtered by them as a primary objective.
I think it is not our concern.
The Israelis did castrate an Iranian with a Hezbollah pager bomb….
Muhammad, PISS be upon him.
“Earlier this evening, we exercised self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter, targeting solely military and security sites in charge of genocide in Gaza and Lebanon,”
At least he’s owning up to the fact that Iran maintains sites in Gaza and Lebanon in charge of genocide.
I’m tired and My BP is going up reading the crap you terrorscum are spewing so I will just copy & paste what I wrote to the un jackass on another Thread:
First off you 💩for 🧠 globalist scumbags, the Israeli’s did not start all this War/terrorism and unwarranted violence the “religion of pieces of 💩” is foisting on the Israeli People and the rest of the World !!!
The Crusades should have never been stopped !!! If they had finished the job back then the Civilized World would not be dealing with this 💩!!!
So take your unecessary money grubbing asses out of America and STAY OUT !!!
All a “ceasefire” for the terrorist scumbags is a time to rebuild the weapons supply and plan the next round of terroristic attacks on the rest of the world.
SO STFU AND GO AWAY !!!
Then why are you so concerned about that you bring it up in an unrelated topic?
lol. Nonsense. They have funded, armed, trained proxy militias all over the region. Hamas, Hezbullah, Houthis… but also the Shia militias in Iraq that killed and wounded thousands of US service members.
Taking out these proxies is not the same as attacking the country. Under no reasonable interpretation was this self defense. Israel took out the immediate threats to their nation. These militias are merely a weapon Iran wants to use to hold Israel hostage and under constant threat for any pretext Iran wants. Israel removing them is self defense. For Iran it’s not self defense it just neutralizes their contingencies from the ‘risk’ board and leaves Iran with a lot less leverage and without distractions. Iran is exposed now and with limited retaliatory (or offensive) measures to deploy.
Oh yeah, better buy some life insurance man.
The Palestinians could have accepted a state 25 years ago, under Clinton, at Camp David and Oslo They didn’t want it and listened to fools like the Iranians in rejecting it. After they refused the deal they went to maximum violence - blowing up buses, cafes, discos, pizzarias etc. The Israeli people obviously moved from center left to mostly right.
The iranians are just embarrassed They have been completely devastated. Hamas is 95% gone and Hezbullah is on the run and very much degraded. Iran has no leverage left, and is barely a threat to Israel now. We’ll see what happens next I guess but Iran, losing most of its proxy militias, is ever more isolated and impotent.
So that’s why missiles were aimed at the civilians of Tel Aviv.
What attack?
I think you misread Eleutheria’s posting of this as support for the terror state of Iran. From his/her comment, I think the opposite was meant.
Because we have politicians signing bombs destined for Russia. Our little proxy war for profit might turn into an actual war.
Islam is the antichrist.
