Waiting for the day Isreal will come for each of those countries you listed above, it's a matter of time.
Isreal is racing for dominance in the middle East, watch and see.
That's a big fat lie. Israel is not racing for dominance. Saudi and some other Arab nations are happy with Israel sef cos Iran has been destabilizing the middle east for long. Do you know how many Iranian citizens are secretly praying for the IDF to take out the evil supreme leader? Israel has several Iranian citizens working for them right inside Iran.

I don't think Hamas saw this coming when they dealt their blow in 2023.


Nope, I'm pretty sure they didn't.

Wow. I don't know why i feel somehow about this. This is a direct confrontation. In as much as i support Isreal, striking and killing a top Iranian government official in his own home is just too much. This will likely mark the start of a serious war in the middle East
That is exactly what the State of Israel wants.

Iran has beeing sponsoring and using proxies to attack Isreal ever since, in other to shy away fro direct confrontations with Israel. They can only send multiple missile into Isreal, a minor confrontation. Anything more than that will only result in Israel achieving what they have always wanted, total destruction of Iran and its nuclear programme.

Mark my words, they will achieve it this time arround.

You are in Africa eating free food, you don't know what your saying. To eliminate the officials are the main objective to stop the madness from them.

Middle East have been in war since inception.

Israel and west are wrong again. They have no rights to tell Iran, she cannot have nuclear weapons while Israel and west have nuclear weapons.

Everyone, Every country had rights to defend himself, herself and itself.

The west has no rights to dictate to Iran how Iran is going to defend herself against Israelli and western nuclear weapons.
You think they are as clueless as our government.
People that has intelligence even in Iran.
They know exactly the flat numbers of key figures.

Countries that posses nuclear weapons are not threatening to use it on any nations unlike Iranian regime whose sole purpose of existence is to see to d total destruction of Israel with nuclear bombs.

You are mad. Israel and Western world you talked about how many times have used nukes to threaten any country? Nuclear weapons in the hands of Iran is a recipe for disaster hence,it shouldn't be entertained

I think the last response from Israel against Iran's missile attack was to dismantle their air defences. Most people who saw it knew they stayed in Iran's airspace for hours locating and destroying their air defence mechanisms.

Iran seems to be like a sitting duck right now because they seem not to have a functioning air defence.

Time will tell as the days go by.
You are 💯 correct. That was the first wave that was in preparation for this second wave which many here saw coming.

But FreeStuffsNG, Malali and Biodun556 said Israel was lying about penetrating Iranian airspace.

Propaganda cannot defeat overwhelming military might.

I've seen so many comments onto his topic and it's funny. Why are you people this selective on justice? The selective justice is the reason why you pick sides with some politicians and demonise others.
Israel has the right to won nukes but Iran doesn't?
It's right for Israel to own nukes because it soots your agenda abi?

There's no reason on God's green earth to attack political leaders of a sovereign state in their own land!!!

You people don't see anything wrong with it now until it's done to countries you have a bias for.

I happened to Libya and they were cheering it until years later they realised their folly.

Something shouldn't be bad only because it happens to someone you like, what is bad for one should be bad for all.
After the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979, the leaders vowed to take out Israel, a UN member State from the face of the map. What's their reason? They aren't Arabs but want to carry a matter wey no consign them for head like akara and plantain for sale.

More assessments are being carried to ascertain other leaders who have been eliminated in this targeted Israeli assassination airstrikes

Iranian TV hosts and staff have all been asked to put on black arm bands to express mourning state

Israel has had confirmed they know the current underground locations of Iran supreme leader Ali Khamenei and him being moved from one location to another, and they will come for him too when the time is right

Trust me, you don’t know what you’re talking about— not even a bit! Do you have any idea of the real and potential threats an Israeli faces every single day around the world? The very real threat of extermination and the constant reality of terrorism? It’s easy to sound like a judge when you’re not a Jew with a big black target painted on your back wherever you go. You expect Israel to sit back and watch Iran— which has openly vowed to 'wipe Israel off the face of the earth'— acquire nuclear weapons capability? You must be joking!

No, Iran didn't stop anything. How do you claim to stop someone who stayed in your airspace for over 4 hours?

Also, I think Iran's missile attack against Israel was ill advised. They gave Israel the boldness of today to enter their airspace and even have boots on ground because that response from Israel destroyed their air defence systems.

Also, they gave out most of their ammunitions to Hezbollah and other terror groups that have been decimated, now they seem to be exposed somehow.

The coming days will be interesting for everyone.

Israel releases list of Iranian leaders they eliminated this morning

Israeli definitely has thousands of Mossad cell agents who are actually Iranian citizens spread across Iran and have inflittrated the Iran regime , cos this intelligence gathering is top notch and out of this word

There is a 99% Chance likely that there are several Israeli Mossad agents who are Iranian citizens in the underground location where Iran Supreme leader Ayatollah. Khamenei is being hidden as we speak, cos Iranian government has been serverly compromised to have most of their leaders eliminated in less than 2 hours.

Jenassandlovers:
Israel spent years preparing for the operation against Iran’s nuclear and missile programs, a security official tells The Times of Israel, including building a drone base inside Iran and smuggling precision weapons systems and commandos into the country.

The effort hinged on tight joint planning between the IDF and the Mossad intelligence agency.

According to the official, Mossad agents set up a drone base on Iranian soil near Tehran. The drones were activated overnight, striking surface-to-surface missile launchers aimed at Israel.

In addition, vehicles carrying weapons systems were smuggled into Iran.

These systems took out Iran’s air defenses and gave Israeli planes air supremacy and freedom of action over Iran.

The third covert effort was Mossad commandos deploying precision missiles near anti-aircraft sites in central Iran.

The operations relied on “groundbreaking thinking, bold planning and surgical operation of advanced technologies, special forces and agents operating in the heart of Iran while totally evading the eyes of local intelligence,” says the official.
My love for Isreal intelligence is a topnotch.
This is only possible in Hollywood films....idf, mossad has done many militarily impossible operations in d past like entebbe operations, destruction of Syria nuclear reactor,Iraq nuclear program,killing of hanniyeh inside Tehran,pager explosion,elimination of nasrallah & other terrorists...they are d world best Intel agency.

The problem is not about having Nuclear weapons.
India and Pakistan have nukes, Israel didn't attack them. The problem is threatening to wipe out Israel off the map. Israel takes such threats seriously and therefore, under no circumstances should Iran have a Nuke because it is an existential threat to Israel. There is no other option

What wins a war is not how many times you can strike but how much of your enemy's attack you can foil. They don't have defenses at the moment which also can give Israel the opportunity to keep the war in Iranian soil. You send drones, they can find a way to jam them or strike your sending point to destroy you from home.

Don't get me wrong, Iran has the capacity to cause damages but can it withstand the damage that they will receive without defence systems?

Imagine a target on their high commanders were successful. That should tell you that they are so exposed. Ayatollah might be the next target.

Also, the Persians in their midst are praying for the Ayatollahs to be destroyed.
