True, the zionists hit some military bases in Khuzestan, Ilam and Tehran but limited damage was caused. Iran’s military reported four soldiers manning the air defence systems, were killed. No Revolutionary Guards bases were attacked.
Israel first carried out strikes on radar installations in Syria. This was aimed at preventing Iran from getting advance warning of incoming Israeli planes. They used Iraqi Kurdistan airspace, which is under US control, before entering Iran. Despite such “radar blinding”, Iran’s air defence systems successfully thwarted zionist attacks.
Nor did Israel’s attack scare people in Iran. They treated the zionist strike with utter contempt. Airports in Tehran—Imam Khomeini International Airport and Mehrabad Airport—remained operational and flights were suspended only briefly. The people of Tehran showed even more contempt for zionist war crimes.
Far from being intimidated, they went about their life normally. In the early morning, mothers took their children to Tehran’s numerous parks for a walk. Men jogged or exercised completely unfazed. No schools were shut and traffic in Tehran’s streets was as chaotic as ever.
Contrast this with the Israeli rulers—political and military. Benjamin Netanyahu, his war minister Yoav Gallant and other war criminals fled to hide in underground bunkers as Israel launched its attack on Iran. Was Tehran going to retaliate immediately that they were so scared? It reflected the zionists’ cowardly nature.
Zionist officials were at pains to point out that they only hit military sites. No oil facilities or Iran’s nuclear sites were targeted, they stressed.
By about 6 am local time, the Israeli military said it had concluded its operation. The “mission was fulfilled” and Israeli jets “have safely returned home,” according to CNN.
The Americans were even more emphatic in distancing themselves from the latest zionist war crimes. They insisted they had nothing to do with the attack and were not involved in it.
This is not true. Almost every weapon in the Israeli arsenal—fighter jets, missiles, bombs and other munitions—is supplied by the US. In addition to the $3.8 billion Washington gives to the parasitical zionist entity annually, the US has supplied $50 billion worth of weapons to Israel since October 2023. Another $20 billion are in the pipeline.
So, why is the US so anxious to distance itself from Israeli war crimes against Iran? And why is Israel so keen to say it did not attack Iran’s oil or nuclear facilities? The Americans are claiming ‘credit’ for preventing Israel from attacking Iranian oil and nuclear facilities.
If so, why has Washington, especially Joe Biden failed so miserably in ending Israeli genocide of the hapless people of Gaza? The fact is that the Palestinians in Gaza have no means of self-defence. They are fighting with their bare hands against the heavily-armed zionist war criminals.
Iran, on the other hand, has the means and the wherewithal to not only defend itself but to also retaliate against any Israeli aggression. It demonstrated this capability on October 1 when Iran fired more than 200 hypersonic missiles at Israel’s military bases causing severe damage.
Iran’s hypersonic missiles can reach speeds of Mach 13 to 18 (13 to 18 times the speed of sound). No anti-missile defence systems are capable of intercepting such missiles. Further, Iran has achieved great accuracy for its missiles and can hit any target within a 5m radius.
It is also noteworthy that unlike the zionists, neither Iran nor its allies—Hizbullah, Ansar Allah or the Iraqi resistance movement—have targeted civilians. They can do so but they prefer to maintain the high moral ground and hit only military targets.
Iranian officials had warned that they would respond to any Israeli criminal acts in kind. “You hit our oil facilities and we will blow your refineries; you hit our nuclear sites and we will obliterate Dimona,” was Iran’s clear message. That explains why the zionists have been so anxious to repeatedly stress that they did not hit any oil facilities or Iran’s nuclear sites. Since when have they become such good boys and what explains their “good behaviour”?
They certainly haven’t had a change of heart. Far from it. The zionists know—and Iran’s commanders have made it absolutely clear—that any Israeli folly will receive a speedy and severe response. Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, especially its aerospace division commanders, have declared that more than 2000 hypersonic missiles are on launch pads and are ready to be fired in a matter of minutes.
The zionists know this. Let us do the math. Even in the best-case scenario, Israel’s Iron Dome, David Sling and Arrow anti-missile systems can intercept 70% of incoming missiles. In real life situation, this has never been achieved.
Take the case of Iran’s October 1 missile strike on Israeli targets. More than 90% of the missiles got through. If Iran were to fire 2000 hypersonic missiles and even if 30% get through, that would be 600 missiles striking various targets in Israel.
The targets that are likely to be hit would be Israel’s chemical weapons and arms manufacturing factories in Haifa. The poisonous gases released from the factories would suffocate most people to death. A few dozen missiles hitting the Dimona nuclear facility would release a mushroom cloud incinerating everyone. Israel would become the victim of its own nuclear weapons.
And Tel Aviv will certainly not be spared either. It is the devil’s workshop where all the evil zionist plots are hatched. Israel’s military bases will also be hit and destroyed. When 600 plus missiles land in the illegitimate zionist entity, nothing will be left of it.
The zionist war criminals know this, hence their repeated assertions that they did not strike Iran’s oil and nuclear facilities. The Rahbar, Imam Seyyed Ali Khamenei said that Iranian officials will decide the quality of Iran’s show of power for zionist war crimes. And Parliament’s speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf said that Iran’s response to the zionists’ act of aggression will be “definite and calculated.”
The zionists should know—many of them do, hence their escape from the illegitimate entity—that their end is nigh. Its end will come sooner than many expect. Israeli military analysts and former generals have sounded the alarm about low morale and imminent collapse of its armed forces.
