Israel says it is conducting "precise strikes on military
targets" in Iran
The Israel Defense Forces say the strikes are in response
to "months of continuous attacks from the regime of Iran"
Several loud explosions were reported by Iranian state media
a little earlier
Israel's strikes in response to Iran's ballistic missile
attack on 1 October, the White House says
. . .
And so it begins.
As I posted barely an hour ago, Iran says it's
now up to war footing with Israel and will launch
significant retaliation.
Despite Trump's remark, I do hope they do NOT hit
the uranium plants ... that'd cause a huge
radioactive fog across Iran and beyond.
lets see what iran does next...
That'll be coming up Real Soon.
They promised something more severe than the
last time.
IronDome IS hard to crack however ... it and
other systems have almost negated the power
of rocket attacks. Israel is now rolling out
a powerful laser-based system - dual lasers
in fact, a little one for buzzy drones and
a 150kw one for incoming rockets. LOTS
cheaper to fire than IronDome. If Iran
really wants to hurt Israel then it HAS to
take out critical segments of IronDome just
before the attack. Mods to their rockets,
like a detachable warhead, might get past
defenses a little more often.
Still, at this juncture, 'rockets' are becoming
an obsolete mil tech. Gotta have B2s or infiltrators
or xtra-range artillery or smuggle in nukes on a
donkey cart or have xtra-AI drones buzzing in
literally at treetop level.
Anyway, this is the middle-east for you - things
keep spiraling up and up until there's some kind
of really major genocide campaign. Every tat MUST
exceed the preceding tit for the sake of honor and
god and whatever.
Trump WILL support Israel, few questions.
K, maybe, but not so much.
The USA and some EU also need a proxy to
attack Iranian mil/nuke/econ infrastructure.
They've wanted to for a LONG time, but it
would be bad bad politics to do it themselves.
