Can't wait to see what package awaits the Islamic regime

It's going to be a mixture of art and brilliance...

What's happening to Israeli dome tonight, it totally failed.
Iranian missiles swamped and rained in Tel-Aviv

Most missiles were intercepted. Besides, Iron dome is not for ballistic missiles. They have David's sling and Arrow Systems.

An invasion of Iran is something that will likely never happen mostly because of distance and terrain. Also Israel is not that ambitious. Lastly, any large scale foreign operations beyond Israel's borders will leave the homeland highly vulnerable. Something that Israel will not trade.

But there might/will be missile response.

Floky215:
Justification is required..bibi already hinted on regime change in Iran.

Don't think the Islamic regime in Iran would survive the bait..

Ayatollah have already gone into hiding for fear of his life..

Let's wait and see the package prepared for the Islamic regime in Iran

Keep coping. No go warm eba chop

Netanyahu:

Iran made a very big mistake and they will pay for it.

Just like Sinwar, Deif, and Nasrallah underestimated the consequences, it seems the IRGC doesn’t fully understand the reality either. They will soon learn a very painful lesson. Israel don't make empty threats !
