Iran's Revolutionary Guards threaten to turn Israel into 'scorched earth'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 19/10/26 | Elad Benari

Posted on 10/18/2026 11:26:32 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on Sunday threatened severe retaliation against Israel if Iranian energy infrastructure comes under attack, warning that such an operation would have devastating consequences.

IRGC spokesman Hossein Mohabbi issued the threat in a post on X, which was subsequently removed for violating the platform's rules.

“Any attack on Iran’s energy infrastructure, although it will immediately be repaired by our young scientists, will turn the occupied territories into scorched earth forever and drive its usurpers into the Sinai Desert," Mohabbi wrote.

“The world will see what happens," he added.

They get to make glow-in-the-dark Palestinians, so long as they also kill the Jooos! As if nobody ever tried that before.

That would make it easier to defeat them when they deplete their armoury trying get Israel.

So far, the IRGC have been pretty underwhelming.

The biggest mistake in this conflict was halting the attacks against Iran. They should have been decimated months ago and brought to their knees.
The so called Ceasefire has only emboldened them and once again, they are threatening a real genocide against the Jews.
So. let them try and see the Israelis literally burn this regime. One can only hope Trump will use MOABs on every target in Iran that needs to be destroyed.
Only then will the people overthrow their dictators.

I hear you, but it would have been a thirty year war to have put boots on the ground at the beginning. Iran would have ended up looking like Dresden if we had done that.

Trump is just waiting until after the midterms, I believe. Once the midterms are over, he will unleash everything. Until then, they have probably collected tons of information from Iranians. Whenever the IRGC does something, they are tracked by Iranians. The US military and Israel probably have a list of lots of targets they will attack when the midterms are over.

This, to me, is the funniest thing I've read all day.

Not the content of the message itself.

The fact that a 7th-century barbarian death cult posts their existential threats on a social media platform based in America.

Somehow that just cracks me up.

And on top of that Elon allows it as a matter of freedom of speech !The IRGC is exercising a freedom of speech that is denied their own People.

If that is not irony, I do not know what is !

Alahwahoo Doofbar!

You are assuming the GOP will win a majority in the USA House and Senate.

No majority?

Trump is paralyzed for the next two years.

We do not need boots on the ground at all. Enough damager can be (and was not) done in the initial round. Sure, Israel eliminated the leadership and many other things but we need to hope the mid-terms go to the Republicans and then, a full-fledged attack on the IRGC and infrastructure. A 30 years war is not required however, I like your idea of Dresden II...

And the devil and the devil’s demons celebrate as another moslem worships the culture of death and destruction.

If they could, they would.

But thank God, they can’t.

—

If you go to Israel, you can find Muslims with their families cooking along the beach in Tel Aviv, with a Jew cooking next to them... Israel allows for Christians, Bahia, Muslims, Druids, all living together. You’ll see a women in a skimpy bikini, and then one that is covered from head to toe, they TRULY are inclusive and tolerant (as much as possible given security concerns).

The ideology Israel is confronted with is not so open minded.

If they could get their way, they would chop the heads off Jews, and that’s not meant figuratively. I’m sure most the 400 hostages of 7 October were kept alive merely as bargaining chips.

As to these people: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bc52e58809d8e0d73b28927/36983408-0e82-4650-9b1d-809a32950862/F75JUdsbkAAEn3P.png?format=500w

They are just following a fad. America is all about trends and fads (the herd Nietzsche talks about). The irony in all of this is lost to these folks. They think they know something because they read a factually weak and often just opinions on Social Media, have a friend, or ate some hummus. But no matter how ignorant they actually are, they have a vote.

No doubt, after Israel invaded Gaza, the Palestinian side scored major PR points. “Perceptions” (created by appealing to feelings and dominating the narrative) are what count in these cases. Ukraine, Covid, the so called J6 Insurgency... Emotions win over reason.
