Erstwhile Minister of Aviation Femi Fani-Kayode has described the launch of ballistic missiles by Iran against Israel as just the beginning.

The statement comes after Iran fired hundreds of various ballistic missiles towards Israel.

Iran described it as the beginning of its “crushing response” to Israeli attacks on the country on Friday.

DAILY POST reported that the Israeli military carried out dozens of airstrikes on Iran.

However, in a post on X on Friday, the ex-minister claimed that the Iranians were lured into a false sense of security by the United States while Israel was preparing for war.

Fani-Kayode said: “The Islamic Republic of Iran has finally hit back and struck the Jewish state with missiles and drones. This was inevitable and it is just the beginning.

The attack on Iran by Israel was not only unprovoked but is also a condemnable violation of international law. It is indeed a declaration of war.

“The Isrealis have not only targeted and bombed key Iranian infrastructures but they have also killed Iranian civilians, including women and children, and key Iranian military and civilian leaders and nuclear scientists.

“Israel has attacked Gaza, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and now Iran in the last one year.

The attack on Iran was carried out whilst the Iranians were still in negotiations with the Americans.

“Simply put, the Iranians were lured into a false sense of security by the Americans whilst Isreal was preparing for war. This makes Americans complicit in this attack despite their denials.

“To those nations that say Israel felt sufficiently threatened by Iran and has a right to self-defence, I ask the following question: does Iran not have the same right after being attacked? Are the Iranians not entitled to defend themselves, too?

Iran MUST and WILL retaliate and they will do so in a dramatic fashion. The retaliatory attack that Iran launched this evening is just the beginning and by the time this is all over there may be no Zionist state left.

“Worse still, the conflict could escalate beyond the Middle East.

“Those who bend the knee to the Isreali thugs and bullies and who believe that might is always right are nothing but cowards who fail to appreciate the fact that the beast that they are applauding will eventually turn on them.”

What is his business with Isreal and Iran confrontations?

kettykings:
It is not very hard to spot a Nigerian, Israeli missiles targetted nuclear installations and Iranian top military officers but Iranian missiles are targeting Israeli civilians and just anyone in Telaviv. And what do we have, a Nigerian supporting Iran missiles strike against civilians.
Hmm

Kushites:
In other words, you support the unprovoked air strikes against Iran that killed innocent women and children, right when Iran was discussing a peace deal with the US.

Your smiley emojis cannot disguise the fact that your morals are in the gutter.

You really do not know any of this . You read or heard reports and


You just choose what to believe based on your orientation and worldview

What missiles? What are they called?
Assuming your story is true and we have no way of knowing that

Is Israel at war with Iran ? What is the legal justification for attacking nuclear installations? What is the legal justification for targetting military officers. What right has Israel got to do that.
You want to believe Israel did not strike civilian targets but Iran did? What is that based on ? CNN or BBC?

Many of you talk as if you never went to school

Amitex:
You that is educated, why did Hamas, Iranian sponsored terrorist instigate this war on October 10 attack on party goers? Did you condemn Hamas and Iran then? Why has Hamas refused to release the hostages? Why has Iran been enriching nuclear weapon, even when the WHOLE world is against? Who are they enriching those bombs for, Saudis or Qatar or UAE?

What war?
I
I really don't have time for childish talk

Why not ask me the ingredients for Ogbono soup?

What is the relevance of all the nonsense you are spewing ?

The issues are above your brain power and you are just bringing in a salad of unrelated things you need to learn how to debate one topic at a time and stop jumping around from branch to branch like a monkey

Israel is not the World police . They do not have any legal authority to do what they are doing. They have declared war on Iran hoping America has their back and no other country will join. We will have to wait and see how that plays out

It is really frustrating to see ignorant Black Africans take sides in a matter that does not concern them

Do you believe that what is happening to Palestine cannot and will not still happen to another African country

You people do not even read the world and study what is going on .DO you think there will not be another wave of colonialism and land grab in Africa? That is what should concern ignorant folk like you who are blinded by misplaced prejudice
