Iran will follow up on an attack targeting its ambassador in Lebanon, the Iranian envoy to the United Nations said in a letter, adding that it “reserves its rights under international law to take required measures deemed necessary to respond.”

Iranian Ambassador to Lebanon Mojtaba Amani was among the more than 1,000 people injured when the series of Hezbollah pagers exploded across Lebanon and in Syria yesterday.

<< attack targeting its ambassador >>

False. Hezbollah operatives were targeted. Just so happens the Iranian ambassador was in possession of a Hezzie-issued pager. Imagine that. Oh well.

To Iranians cuddling up to Hezbollah, PLO and Hamas:
If you lie down with dogs you will try to get up with half your body blown off by a remotely detonated explosive device.

Old saying.

What goes around comes around.

Now they can liven what they inflict on the rest of the world.

Your ambassador was not acting as ambassador with a Hezbola pager, he was acting as a Hezbola operative so he’s fair game.

Iran, you’ve been up to your eyeballs in this forever, go ahead FAAFO.

Yes. He was carrying a designated terrorist list device. Confirming, as we all know, Iran’s complicity in destabilizing Lebanon and the region.

While I am in agreement with this statement, these incidents are just a very small portion of what the Muzzies have inflicted on Israel and their own people.

They deserve much worse.

If America even thought about doing such an operation, lawyers would say no. Let’s not forget Iran/Hezbollah slaughtered our Marines in Beirut in ‘83 so a thanks to Israel is in store. Blinken and AOC are very angry at Israel.

Agreed.

The Twin towers comes to mind.

However, it’s a start and there’s the psychological warfare part of it. Now they don’t know who or what to trust.

What with Israel targeting cars and hotel rooms, etc so specifically, and showing they can reach into almost anywhere to take out anyone, those terrorists must be looking over their shoulders constantly.

And think of the PTSD many of them now have when they hear any electronic device beeping in their surroundings.

And what was the Iranian Ambassador doing with a Hezbollah pager?

Could he have been directing the day’s terrorist schedule?

“Iran says it reserves right to respond after ambassador wounded in Lebanon blasts”

Because of this latest escalation, they promise to utterly annihilate Israel 18 times instead of just 17.

So Iran wants to claim the right to respond to their Ambassador being injured, but Israel doesn’t have the same right to respond when their borders are invaded, and men, women and children are slaughtered.

Yep, just like Iran's Gen. Suleimani was killed by an American drone strike authorized by President Trump as he arrived at Baghdad International Airport in Iraq. He traveled out of his own country, to a country where U.S. troops are stationed, and made a target of himself. He chose poorly.

Uh, why does your ambassador have a pager distributed by a terrorist organization?
