With this latest massive barrage of missiles at Israel from Iran, the Age of Ayatollahs has ensured it’s own demise. No one in the Middle East or anywhere else wants a terroristic Islamic regime to take over and this attack from them sets Israel free to utterly blitz the Iranian war machine.
Iran has little in terms of an air force or army. What the Ayatollah dictator has invested in is ballistic missiles, drones, the efforts to build nuclear weapons and their navy, at home, with the bulk of their oil profits going to fund Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthis. The 3H Club of terrorism aimed at Israel.
Now Hamas is rendered almost completely ineffective, Hezbollah is about to be next and Iran is attacking Israel in an effort to distract and divert them from Hezbollah. In doing so, they opened the way for Israel to directly attack Iran and inflict severe damage, without being condemned for doing so.
One way this can play out is that when Israel prepares to attack Iran, the US will issue statements that they want Israel to stand down, or if the attack has begun they’ll issue statements that Israel has to stop. But it’s just propaganda because the US will be giving Israel valuable support in their attack.
Because it’s not Iran that the US wants to protect, it’s the oil business. As long as the Ayatollah was selling the oil and keeping things calm, everyone was happy except Israel because the money was being used to fund the terrorists, but now that the Islamic fanatics are hell-bent on all-out war, it’s all different because this will disrupt the oil production more, the more the fighting spreads. Iran’s threat to mine and close the Strait of Hormuz still stands.
Israel wants that oil to keep flowing too, as they have a major refinery on the Caribbean coast and an oil pipeline from there to the Red Sea Gulf of Aqaba.
Iran’s Ayatollah may be expecting Israel’s other Islamic enemies to join in the attack, and he may simply be accepting the sacrifice of a lot of damage in exchange for a large enough distraction of Israel that would allow Hezbollah and whoever else to defeat them. Since he’s now gone into hiding, he plainly expects a major attack, and the rest just logically follows.
The problem with this is obvious. The Israelis are clearly one hell of a lot smarter than that old Muslim and his terrorist cabal. The fact that they’ve already done so much damage to Iran’s proxies should make that clear.
I think we’re going to finally see the end of this misbegotten attempt at making Iran the new Islamic capitol of the Middle East, very soon, along with the dismantling of their A-Bomb making efforts. There’s interesting days ahead.
