I’m sure they won’t take out your, well, anything they want to.
“The attack destroyed ALL of Iran’s long-range surface-to-air missile batteries,” according to Givens’ translation of the IDF Radio report. “All long-range detection radars were also destroyed. Iran is left with only short-range batteries of local Iranian models.”
Again bowing to Western pressure, Israel left Iran’s oil and nuclear facilities intact, but the IAF brutalized Iran’s missile production sites. While “Iran possesses more than 2,000 long-range ballistic missiles,” by most estimates, “the production of new missiles was crippled. From now on, Iran will operate with a finite supply because the stockpile it has will not be able to grow for months or years.” […]
Along the way, IAF jets destroyed air defense sites in Syria and Iraq, too.
Watch: Billions of dollars of Iranian 🇮🇷 money exploding… and The sun setting over the hilltops caught this perfectly
Good: Israeli Knesset bans @UNRWA and illegalizes any contact with this corrupt and terror-promoting organization.
Does this mean that thanks to US pressure, Iran can now embed their missile launching batteries within their Oil infrastructure. This is how Israel’s enemies are never defeated.
The Iranian oil industry is “safe” for now, but if Iran continues to attack Israel, I expect their oil industry will find its way into Israel’s sights. There’ll be a new sheriff in America by then, and he “may not” request Israel hold back in the future.
At some point, Israel will simply say they’ve had enough and those 5 million barrels of oil which Iran supplies to the world may have to be sourced from elsewhere for awhile.

“The Iranian oil industry is “safe” for now, but if Iran continues to attack Israel, I expect their oil industry will find its way into Israel’s sights. ”
Oh, absolutely….and they now know it beyond any doubt.
As someone else pointed out when this first happened, the logistics of this raid were awe-inspiring. 100 warplanes, 1000 miles and *not one* loss? Amazing professionalism.
(and how are you liking that F-35 now?)
How are the Iranians liking those F-35″s ?
Well you can’t hit what you can’t see…

Clearly you don’t understand “stealth”. ATF can see stealth, and once the Iranians learn to do what the Swedes did years ago, stealth will be obsolete.
Also infra red can ‘see’ stealth, as can quantum , optical and anomaly detection . And Russia has 2 of those 4 modes already.
from this distance, and on a timer delay, the thing l see just over the horizon is a huge bright light created by the collective and individual sense of accomplishement like that of a protective brother, all those flyboys unscathed and billions of offensive machinery all scrap metal now.
God Bless the IAF
Canada could help make up the difference if only they had good leaders.

Israel are the good guys.
So what?
There are lots of good guys, and I still don’t want to give them my money, or there some kinda “good guy tax” that I gotta pay? Is the difference between the good guys and the bad guys the same as the difference between how much money I gibs? How about fcuk-all for all sides, and I keep my money?
” How about fcuk-all for all sides, and I keep my money?”
Seconded.
(with the provision that we also keep anyone from funding the bad guys)
Israel would be just fine if we leave them to their own devices and stop making them fight with handcuffs on. All that aid money comes with nasty strings like the IDF has to use it to buy American made bombs which Biden can then cut delivery off of at a whim.
Israeli war propaganda is becoming delusional. Look at crude prices for an objective assessment of the failure of the Israeli attack on Iran.
LOL!
Idiot thinks Israel attacked Iran for money.
Step outside the IDF press room. Israel attacked Iran to demonstrate air and missile superiority. It failed. So badly that no one expects Iranian missile retaliation—they don’t need to. This has significantly dropped geostrategic risk premium. ZH:” Crude prices were clubbed like a baby seal today as the Iran-Israel theatrics seemed to calm traders minds and erase geopolitical risk premium….” The Israeli and MIC ploy to draw in the U.S. in advance of the U.S. election has failed. Had the attack been a success, the geopolitical risk of escalation and Iranian blockage of the strait of Hormuz would have increased the price of crude.
That’s straight up Iranian propaganda to save face.
Goodness, I’d hate to see that face if it hadn’t been saved.
The above is one of the funniest wishful thinking pieces I’ve read in a while. Go outside and touch some grass.
If I was sitting beside you I would pet your head.

Israel attacked a missile manufacturing site, at the behest of the CIA, so they will be exporting fewer missiles to Russia. Try keeping up IDIOT! Also they will not be able to replenish their own stocks, or that of the Pizbalhas
They specifically did not target any oil infrastructure because Biden Harris did not want a spike in oil just before the election. Try to keep up.
It’s more than that. The defense industry conglomerates need turmoil and conflict to solidify their market. If you take Iran off the board it stabilizes things way too much. Not only does it calm things down in the Middle East, it directly effects Russia (one of their primary trade partners).
Iran’s inflation rate hovers around 35%. Their GNP is in the toilet when they aren’t playing with the numbers. Oil is the primary revenue for Iran, and if you remove that, the people are going to have problems feeding themselves…which leads to revolution and Good Bye Theocratic Iran. Hence, goodbye arms industry windfalls associated with all the various proxy terrorist groups used by Iran.
Western governments want the status quo (as they fall all over themselves begging Israel for a ceasefire) because it is lucrative to their cronies.

Weapons depot doubling as a mosque. The quote from the comments was hilarious “What ever that was, it has been unburdened by what has been.”
Just a bit of theorizing about the future. Imagine that Trump wins and the USA starts exporting oil again. Now the US will gain economically if Iran’s oil is no longer available. China produces 4Mbd (Million barrels per day) and imports 11Mbd. If the Israelis destroy Iran’s oil production, then every other country in the middle East and the USA can sell at a higher price and China must pay a higher price. Since Iran’s air defences are weakened any attempt to block the Straits of Hormuz can be exterminated by a US carrier task group.
– Imagine that Trump wins and the USA starts exporting oil again.
The USA already exports oil – it is the nation’s biggest export. And along with being the biggest oil producer in the world the US is one of the very biggest exporters (some sites say the biggest). The US has done very nicely indeed with the sanctions on Russia, curiously something Trump doesn’t mention.
Congress has given the President an emergency power to ban oil exports, so in the event of Iran successfully blocking gulf exports, the US will divert production to the domestic market and be isolated from the shortages and price rises that will impact the rest of the world.
“The attack destroyed ALL of Iran’s long-range surface-to-air missile batteries,”
I guess since “ALL” is in all-caps it must be true. Remember the news stories after the 2018 cruise missile attack on Syria? “100% target success”. It was a flat out lie as even the most rudimentary analysis of the satellite imagery showed. The Israeli’s have good intelligence, but there is no way in hell the above statement is true.
I still await an accurate accounting. I’m not so sure as to the targets or results of this attack.
Well … it’s a good thing Biden took care of the Iranian missile proxies in Yemen! Don’t want Iran to simply start firing batteries of Yemini-Iranian missiles at Israel again. Tough guy Biden took Yemen out behind the HS Gym and let em have it … Right? He did that … Right? Oh Gawwwwd …
At some point the Iranian nukes will have to be dealt with and the US military apparatus knows it.
Iran lets a nuke go and the international arms industry might be taking a long holiday. The Jews can’t play a game like this for long.
“. . . the production of new missiles was crippled . . .”
Russia (and SDA?) hardest hit.
message to Israel hit them again and again until they are eliminated
So they targeted the integrated air defense system and ballistic missile production. Nice thing about taking out the IADS, it makes coming back a lot easier.
