True, I imagine the last few days is a lot for any 86 year old to take.
I haven't even seen buzz about any Israeli strike on Iran, so it would be hard to believe this unless he got assassinated by some Mossad agents or something prowling around. Given Iran's woeful security apparatus around protecting VIPs that wouldn't be surprising. Regardless seems like a huge escalation on Israel's part; if true only lends more credence to the idea that the Americans are getting involved, as they know they can escalate now that they've backup.
This latest strike seems have been far more successful than those prior. As their interceptor stocks dwindle subsequent strikes might be more successful still. There's been serious strikes against Iran since Friday. The longer this goes on the more it seems the Israelis seirously miscalculated. Not sure where they can go from here. False flag to draw in the Americans?
No it's the opposite, the "rescue" planes are bringing back Israelis that are on vacation in various places, as their only way home (the airport) is closed indefinitely. So they straight up cannot go home but also would be deported if they overstay their visas. I don't think there are any non-Israeli tourists getting on these flights.
Per Haaretz, the Israeli government has forbidden airlines from carrying Israeli citizens abroad on their "rescue" flights to bring back Israeli tourists. Obviously there's immense demand to flee a sinking ship, and they're barring the exits. https://xcancel.com/i/status/1934314561282142323
Yeah I guess it's hard to figure out how many missiles Iran is firing in each bout, given the Israelis are never going to say and Iran doesn't have much incentive to say either. So you don't think Israel's stocks are at all threatened at the moment?
