" missiles amid civilian infrastructure in Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...Gantz made an interview with the American "Fox News" channel, during which he claimed that "Hizbullah" has hundreds of thousands of missiles, claiming that the map shows "the locations of Hizbullah ground forces, storage sites, command offices, and missile launch sites."
On Friday, al-Sharq newspaper quoted the American channel as saying that Gantz gave the map to Fox News journalist, Terry Yingst, in order to see it, when he asked him about the number of missiles that Hizbullah had, but the channel hid the map details when the interview was aired.
When the journalist asked whether the map represented a "list of targets for the Israeli army in Lebanon," the Israeli Defense Minister said: "This is a target map. Each one of them has been checked legally, operationally, intelligence-wise and we are ready to fight."
Previously, Israel's military chief of staff, Lt. Gen. Aviv Kohavi, warned that in future conflicts, Israel would use heavy force in residential areas where Hibullah rockets are stored and launched. He has said Israeli troops would warn civilians to evacuate their homes before launching such strikes.
Y’all have been warned. For Iran’s other pincer, The Times of Israel has more:
Defense Minister Benny Gantz on Thursday said the Israel Defense Forces is continuously updating its plans for a prospective military strike on Iranian nuclear sites.Gantz, in an interview with Fox News, said the military plans would not be finalized until right before such a strike was set to be carried out.
“Until then, we will continue to build them [the plans], to improve them… to the highest professional level possible,” he said.
“If the world stops them [Iran] before, it’s much the better. But if not, we must stand independently and we must defend ourselves by ourselves,” added the defense minister.
Israel has twice conducted military strikes against the nuclear programs of its enemies — Iraq in 1981 and Syria in 2007 — under what’s become known as the Begin Doctrine, which maintains that Jerusalem will not allow an enemy country to obtain an atomic weapon.
