[NYPOST] Israel has vowed vengeance after Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
launched 200 ballistic missiles at the Jewish state Tuesday night — dozens of which penetrated air defenses and struck Tel Aviv and other population centers.
Despite this attack having more impact than the earlier strike in April — a Jewish school was among the places badly damaged — there were very few casualities. Only two Israelis were maimed and the only death was a Paleostinian man in the West Bank who was cruashed by an intercepted missile fuselage.
Crushed or squashed or both

said following the barrage where two American destroyers helped intercept the missiles. "Make no mistake the United States is fully, fully, fully supportive of Israel."
Sirens began flaring shortly after 7:30 p.m. local time, with 10 million residents called to take shelter from the assault that left missiles and shrapnel hitting Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and other major cities.
Enis, a man who lives just 20 minutes north of Tel Aviv, told The Post the earth-shattering kabooms left his entire apartment building shaking as he and others hid in a shelter.
"The blasts were incredibly loud and intense, shaking the walls and windows," he said. "This was the first time I truly felt afraid, and the booms were unlike anything I had experienced before."

"If the Zionist regime reacts to the operation, it will face heavy attacks," the IRGC warned.
Colin Clarke, a counter-terrorism expert at the New York-based Soufan Group, said the lack of casualties was calculated by Tehran, which needs to look strong following Israel’s invasion of southern Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah 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 dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original 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...
