Iran Threatens New Attack on Israel
Newsweek ^ | February 28, 2025 | Amir Daftari

Posted on 02/28/2025 5:20:08 PM PST by SunkenCiv

Iran has said it will carry out another military operation against Israel, according to state media agencies.

Brigadier General Ali Fazli of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC), said that a third operation against Israel, known as "True Promise III," will be carried out "on schedule."...

On April 13, 2024, Iran launched a large-scale missile attack on Israeli targets, "True Promise I," marking Iran's first direct military engagement with Israel in decades. The strikes followed the April 1 Israeli bombing of Iran's diplomatic mission in Syria, which killed several Iranian officials and military officers.

Iran expanded its operations with a second round of strikes on October 1, targeting Israeli military facilities. Israel then retaliated with airstrikes later that same month. Satellite imagery suggested Iran's military infrastructure suffered significant damage...

While President Donald Trump has expressed a preference for diplomacy... Earlier this month... fully reinstated his administration's "maximum pressure" policy of economic sanctions, aiming to choke Tehran's ability to fund military operations by eliminating its crude oil exports.

Perhaps a part of Trump’s “deal” with Putin is Putin stopping his support of Iran.

Perhaps part of Putin’s deal with the DNC is morons like Mark Kelly and Susan Rice on MSNBC.

:Iran has said it will carry out another military operation against Israel, according to state media agencies.”

For Iranian domestic consumption.

They’ve lost most of Gaza and all of Syria for operational bases and their ability to run out of Lebanon is impaired as well.

When will the Iranian leaders learn that the God of Israel is stronger and smarter than the god of Iran? Are they too inbred to realize it?

This refers to a threat made yesterday, February 27.

Just the latest in a series of similar weekly threats.

Israel and the Trump Administration have publicly, repeatedly, stated Iran must not have usable nukes. Would Iran launch a conventional missile attack that the past shows would be marginally effective, if effective at all?

An attack from Iran would invite a very effective response from Israel and likely the US that would postpone the Twelver Shia dream of the Mahdi’s Armageddon. But the mullahs may be nuts enough to want to be martyrs now, so place your bets.

I doubt the mullahs want to be martyrs but they certainly want martyrs and there are those who want to be martyrs.

I am always glad to hear about Iran’s failed attacks on Israel. They waste all those rockets usually hit nothing, and then Israel unleashes counter attacks that are precise, well executed, and do massive amounts of damage. Just a couple more Iranian threats and Iran will cease to Exist !

Things must be worse in Iran than I thought. Standard dictators playbook, when the serfs get uppity, attack a “common enemy” to provoke a response and thus “Unite” the people. Based on the previous failures, the Mullahs must be getting desperate. Figure the Israelis are smart enough to tailor their response to hurt the Mullahs rather than the general population.
