An opinion piece published by a hard-line Iranian newspaper on Sunday suggested Iran should attack the Israeli port city of Haifa if Israel carried out the killing of a scientist linked to its disbanded military nuclear program.
Though the hard-line Kayhan newspaper has long argued for aggressive retaliation for operations targeting Iran, Sunday’s opinion piece went further, suggesting any assault be carried out in a way that destroys facilities and “also causes heavy human casualties.”
Israel, suspected of killing Iranian nuclear scientists over the past decade, has not commented on Friday’s slaying of Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.
Iranian officials roundly have blamed Israel for the attack, raising the spectre of renewed tensions that could engulf the region, including U.S. troops stationed in the Persian Gulf and beyond.
Kayhan published the piece written by Iranian analyst Sadollah Zarei, who argued Iran’s previous reactions to suspected Israeli airstrikes that killed Revolutionary Guard forces in Syria didn’t go far enough to deter Israel.
Striking Haifa and killing a large number of people “will definitely lead to deterrence, because the United States and the Israeli regime and its agents are by no means ready to take part in a war and a military confrontation,” Zarei wrote. He said an assault on Haifa needed to be greater than Iran’s ballistic missile attack against American troops in Iraq following the U.S. drone strike that killed a top Iranian general in January.
Haifa, on the Mediterranean Sea, has been threatened in the past by both Iran and one of its proxies, the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah. Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah recently suggested striking Haifa’s stores of ammonium nitrate, a highly explosive fertilizer that fueled the deadly Beirut port blast in August that killed 193 people and wounded 6,500 others.

Israel is probably the only country with the capability. Remember they snatched literally tons of documents concerning the Iranian nuclear program out of a warehouse in Teheran not that long ago. They got skilz.
If they want nukes, let’s give them one. Then they’ll know what they’re playing with.
Not Israel’s style, this was a Saudi Defection operation.
He is not dead, he is free, out of the country and singing like a canary with his family.
Bwahahaha Iran is in so much trouble, it is being picked apart like roadkill surrounded by crows.
And the B52’s are coming...
Yes and beside it was an Iranian grenade and an Iranian guard military cap. And some brain matter.
His driver and his guard died, not him. And his family disappeared at the same time from their home.
You nailed it. Excellent video.
They're just Biden their time.
Yes there are pics purported to be of the dead nuclear scientist - just on this thread
According to the various stories either the dead including the scientist are all bodyguards or include some of the hit men. But all agree the big guy is dead.
>>disbanded military nuclear program.
Allegedly disbanded
The B-52, B-1, B-2's are always in the area. Remember, they've flown to the ME from North Dakota before.
B-52s From Minot Air Force Base Sent To Middle East Saturday
Published: Sat Nov 21 2020
"MINOT AIR FORCE BASE, N.D. (KMOT) - B-52 Stratofortress crews assigned to the 5th Bomb Wing at Minot Air Force Base conducted a “short-notice, long-range mission” in the Middle East Saturday, according to U.S. Central Command.
It was an “act of God” that killed the guy. You can take that to the (West) Bank.
I just don’t get it.
Isn’t the goal of every Muslim to be a “martyr”? Didn’t Israel just make this putz a martyr? They s/b sending Israel a Thank You card, right?
I’m betting this is but one of the traps Trump is laying for the Biden admin. Think about what Obama left Trump.
I don’t think Iran is that stupid....but I have been wrong before...
