    Israel opening up a 3rd front in their war right before USA elections.

    I’m sure this time USA will totally do something to reign them in…

    Right before the election, of course.

    EDIT: Israel has announced its over and Iran says the attacks were limited. I’m actually surprised, hopefully it means that the escalations between the two are over.

    Taken from the live page at Al Jazeera:

    Iran’s military has confirmed that Israeli strikes on the country targeted military bases in Ilam, Khuzestan and Tehran provinces, causing “limited damage.”

    The statement from Iran’s armed forces was read aloud on state television, which showed no images from the sites of the attacks.

    Iran’s military claimed its air defences limited the damage inflicted by Israel’s strikes.

      What Iranian hospitals or schools did Israel hit?

      Based on intelligence, IAF aircraft struck missile manufacturing facilities used to produce the missiles that Iran fired at the State of Israel over the last year. These missiles posed a direct and immediate threat to the citizens of the State of Israel. Simultaneously, the IDF struck surface-to-air missile arrays and additional Iranian aerial capabilities, that were intended to restrict Israel’s aerial freedom of operation in Iran. Source

        They missed. Missiles intercepted. The schools and hospitals are safe. For now. (.TM/knock on wood)

      Iran would be putting those civilian casualties on blast if they existed. They don’t, which is why Iran is complaining about Iranian soldiers and destroyed Iranian military targets.
