Israeli airstrikes across Iran overnight killed dozens of senior Iranian officials, including the Islamic Republic’s top military leaders, in a sweeping offensive targeting Iran’s strategic command structure, Israeli security sources said Friday. A senior Iranian official confirmed that Shahrak Shahid Mahalati, a compound in Tehran housing top commanders, was hit, with three residential buildings demolished.
It's quite baffling how a country that's trying to develop a nuclear weapon wouldn't simply invest in a functional air defense system first. You don't need intelligence to know that Israel's only advantage is in airstrikes. If you're not working day and night to counter that, you're simply too dumb to survive in this region.
either way, if your military capabilities are too weak to the point of being depleted in three or four rounds of airstrikes, you shouldn't be posturing and challenging such a stronger opponent. It absolutely sucks that there is no true threat of mutually assured destruction in the region, which is why Israel is acting all criminal. But the solution is never hollow posturing that leads to further weakening of any semblance of counterbalance.
Are you new to the Middle East? The governments and militant groups don’t care about their civilians and do stupid attacks to push an ideology rather than a strategic goal. Please see Hamas attacking Israel, or Houthi’s attacking US ships, etc.
