Have we warned Israel not to retaliate yet?

I mean Hamas is an Iranian project, and so is Hezbollah, so Iran is already attacking Israel and has been doing for decades.

Why is that our problem? Hasn’t Iran, and Iranian proxies attacked Israel for decades? Always constant fud around.

Significant to me means Iran using Tehran to detonate one of Israel’s nuclear devices.

Why must "we" be ready?

One of the Israeli lobby's talking points is, "We don't want America to defend us. Just give us the weapons and we'll defend ourselves!"

Apparently not.

The Iraq War was to a large extent at the behest of the Israeli lobby. I recall the Neocons claiming in 2002 that Saddam would nuke Israel very soon unless America intervened. And that Saddam was paying suicide bombers' families $25,000 per suicide bombing.

But now that Neocons are out of favor among MAGA conservatives, we're not supposed to remember that. We're supposed to pretend that America First means fighting for Israel, and not notice that it's really 2000s Neoconservatism.

“The New York Times reports the Middle East is on the verge of an all-out war between Israel and Iran and its clients. The Ayatollah ordered Iran’s military to send missiles over Iraq into Israel Wednesday after Israel sent a missile over Iraq into Iran. It’s the first time Iraq ever celebrated Passover.”

Question: If Iran attacks Israel and it’s more significant than the last time.

Should Israel...

1)Retaliate immediately

2) make Iran do the waiting game as Israel has been doing the last several days

or

3) Not retaliate at all?

I think this “crisis” is probably over. Israel has sown that it can strike anywhere it wants and has shown some military capabilities that Iran probably doesn’t want to test at this time. Regardless of the reports on progress, Iran and probably the USA do not know far along Israel’s laser anti rocket weapon has developed. If they can destroy a missile as it rises above the horizon it would be terribly embarrassing to the mullahs.

I think it means an attempt to overwhelm the missile defense system using massive (in number, not size) attacks from several directions. They will likely attack from Yemen, Syria, Lebanon, and Iran. It would not surprise me to see attacks from the Med as well.

If I were doing it I would also take out the Israeli gas production facilities in the Med. But…that would mean the end of Iranian oil production. So that is why I am not a strategic genius.

If Iran hits Israel then Iran should expect a serious response.
Say,,, take out Kharg island fuel loading capabilities

Look up “The Sampson Option’’.

This should scare the hell out of anybody.
