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.”

"If America even thought about doing such an operation, lawyers would say no."

And that's the reason this country will never win a complete victory anywhere ever again, because military lawyers in battle zones make sure our troops don't do anything to offend our enemies.

And what was the Iranian Ambassador doing with a Hezbollah pager? Could he have been directing the day’s terrorist schedule?

Sh-t happens. LOL

The pager being on his person WAS the response.

Iran won’t make any moves till after the election because they don’t want to hurt Kamala’s chances

Is attacking Hezbollah operatives better than indiscriminately bombing civilians?

Against whom? Maybe it’s your own people who did it. They’d know exactly whom to give the devices to.

Sky, we’re on the same team already! “Reserve this” is like “hey Kamela, I’ve got your joy right here”!

Perhaps Israel should release a log of his messages for the last few months. That might be enlightening.

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

>>>>>>>>>>>

Exactly, well said.
And they were dumb enough to admit their ambassador got hit by one of those Hezzie-pagers! Thus, their ambassador is a Hezbollah operative.

“reserves right to respond”

Basically that means that they have no means and no idea on how they could retaliate and just want to save some face
