Iran threatens to attack Israel with weapons it has ‘not used before’ as it gets military support from Russia
NY Post ^ | 04/16/2024 | Melissa Koenig

Iran is reportedly getting a terrifying arsenal from Russia, including anti-aircraft launchers and fighter jets — and is threatening to fire weapons it has never before used in “a severe, extensive and painful response” to the “slightest action” by Israel.

Abolfazl Amouei, a spokesperson for the Iranian Parliament’s National Security Committee, told a local news station Monday that the Islamic Republic “will confront any Israeli aggression and respond to it.”

“We are ready to use weapons that we have not used before,” the official told Al-Mayadeen News, according to the Economic Times.

“We have plans for all scenarios, and we call on the Zionists to act rationally.”

I guess Iran hasn’t considered the unintended consequences of threats like those. Bomb the military & nuclear sites into the stone ages.

Israel isn’t stupid. They probably know much more about Iran’s mystical-magical weapons than we do, and will preemptively take them out. We cannot cower in a corner afraid to kick over a wasp nest that is in dire need of being kicked over.

Just as soon as Pedo Joe’s military delivers said weapon, trains our troops in it’s use and gives us clearance to use it...then by golly we’re gonna unleash heck.

I was watching videos of the attack yesterday. I saw one ballistic missile totally change its trajectory at the last minute to avoid interception by Israel’s air defense. Their other ballistic missiles shoot off a bunch of decoys totally confusing Israel’s air defense.

Iran has made some surprising leaps in missile technology, whether on their own or with Russia’s help. Iran demonstrated yesterday that NOTHING Israel has can stop their ballistic missiles. The slow moving drones they fired off were used as sacrificial pawns to get Israel to light up its radar so they could be mapped and targeted for next time. Netanyahu can talk tough all he wants but trust me he now knows the reality of the situation. I’m thinking he will back off.

An Islam based country using hyperbole in their threats?

I am reminded of the “mother of all battles.”

These people are so full of crap. They just demonstrated they don’t have delivery systems. I wish someone would “bitch slap” these people.

I do not think Russia will use WMD’s in Ukraine. Russia’s objective seems to be methodical destruction of Ukraine’s infra-structure.

On the other hand, Iran’s Mullah’s are pining for 72 virgins and will use any WMD they can get their fanatical hands on.

“We have plans for all scenarios, and we call on the Zionists to act rationally.”

Acting rationally is taking out a serious threat.

You realize that Israel has infrastructure that can be taken out too. Take out Iran’s energy infrastructure and Iran will take out Israel’s Tamar and Leviathan gas fields and then close the Straits of Hormuz sending Western economies into a tail spin.

They aren’t quite bluffing, because they will retaliate, but their weapons are junk. They will more likely blow themselves up, then blame Israel. Israel should take out Iran’s nuke facilities, with either MOBs or nukes. Same with weapon making facilities. That will keep the barbarians busy for a while.

“Iran threatens to attack Israel with weapons it has ‘not used before’ as it gets military support from Russia

“We have plans for all scenarios, and we call on the Zionists to act rationally.””

Um..... huh? Last I checked, Iran just DID attack Israel...(with Russian drones?)...

and Israel did not retaliate (yet)... which would mean... that “the Zionists” already are .... “acting rationally” (or is it just that they are honoring OBiden’s wishes?). Yet again with more threats from the insane mullahs, emboldened (and funded?) by the USA Marxists...?

This crap just gets more and more surreal every day. What the literal ‘f’? We are truly living in insane (evil) times... and it feels like we are fast reaching a point of no return.

WTF!? Someone on here with common sense?
Why ain’t you chearing for all out nuclear war like the rest of these idiots on here?
Congrats..I didn’t think anyone had any forethought posting anymore.

The fact is..Israel can not win a war with Iran. Won’t lose it either but, they’ll try like all hell to drag us into one.
At least they haven’t attacked our navy like they did in the past...YET.
Remember the USS LIBERTY.

Honestly, I am not usually the one arguing for restraint.. but in this particular case.. The Iran attack hurt no one, and allowed them to save face.

I would encourage Israel in this particular case to just let it go.

“I think even Netanyahu realizes it would be suicidal for Israel to go to war with Iran.”

Quite frankly... and no offense (lol)...but...

I don’t think you ‘think’ at all... considering how often you come up wrong. JS...

Emboldened by the Obama/Biden regime and the anti-American CIA.

War is good business, blood makes the grass grow.
Pedo Joe wants to put on a show, make it all glow
These are the seeds we sow, so sit back and watch the mushrooms grow.

Do they have plans for sub launched supersonic ground hugging stealth cruise missiles tipped with nukes?

Because Israel could deliver today, if inclined.

Karg Island.

Easily the most defended spot in Iran, and yet its most vulnerable.
