Israel Military Chiefs Approve Offensive And Defensive Action Against IRAN by GodHatesBigots(m): 9:45pm On Apr 14
Israel says its military has approved "offensive and defensive action" plans following an unprecedented aerial attack by Iran, with Tehran warning any retaliation would result in a "much larger response".

After an extended meeting of Israel's war cabinet on Sunday, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said Iran's plans had "failed".

"We are still on high alert and assessing the situation. Over the last few hours we approved operational plans for both offensive and defensive action," he said in a televised statement, without offering further detail.

The Islamic Republic's mission to the United Nations said its actions were aimed at punishing "Israeli crimes", but that it now "deemed the matter concluded".

Iranian army chief of staff Major General Mohammad Bagheri warned on television that "our response will be much larger than the initial military action if Israel retaliates against Iran" and told Washington its bases could also be attacked if it helped Israel retaliate.

Iranian Foreign Minister Amir Abdollahian said Tehran had informed the US its attack on Israel would be "limited" and for self-defence.

He said Israel's neighbours had also been informed of its planned strikes 72 hours in advance.

Western media have over hyped Israel for long.Israel that was defeated by Hizbullah in 2006 war.Hizbullah is just a group of some armed fighters not even a country.Israel cannot stand Iran one on one without the support of US and it allies.Even this recent missiles and drones attack that Iran fired into Israel were mostly intercepted by the support of US, UK and Jordan.So you can imagine?Till date, Israel has not defeated Hamas, it's only busy killing innocent children and women in Gaza, while Hamas are still holding some Israelis as captives and they are still attacking Israeli army... Iran has a population of about 90million people with sophisticated military equipments, while Israel is not even up to 10million.Pls US and it allies should allow Iran and Israel exchange Fire make we see who strong pass grin grin grin

15 Iranian missiles hit strategic base of Nevatim

Al-Manar citing informed sources announced that Iran has targeted Nevatim Air Base in the south of occupied Palestine with 15 missiles early on Sunday.

Sources reported that following this attack, this base was damaged severely and became completely out of function.

Nevatim air base is located in the south of the occupied territories in the Negev desert region and near the city of Be'er Sheva which is the main base of the F-35 fighters of the Zionist regime.

The IRGC Air Force had practiced a missile attack on a simulated example of this Zionist air base last year. This base is about 1100 km away from the western borders of Iran.

Netanyahu called off retaliation strikes after speaking to Biden – NYT

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled a plan to launch immediate retaliatory strikes against Iran after speaking to US President Joe Biden by phone on Saturday night, Israeli officials have told the New York Times.

According to two anonymous officials, Netanyahu’s war cabinet presented him with a list of responses to a massive drone and missile attack by Iran on Saturday evening. While some members of the cabinet reportedly pushed for an immediate military response, Netanyahu ultimately chose not to follow their advice at Biden’s request, the sources said.

The full details of Biden’s conversation with Netanyahu were not revealed by the White House. According to a report on Sunday by Axios, however, Biden told Netanyahu that Israel had essentially prevailed in this clash with Iran and advised him to “take the win.” It was also made clear during the call that any retaliatory action by Israel would not be supported by Washington, the American outlet reported.


Netanyahu’s war cabinet met on Sunday afternoon to discuss Israel’s response to the Iranian attack, while Iran’s top military commander declared that the “Zionist regime” had been adequately “punished,” and that Tehran would not pursue further military action unless Israel struck again.

Iran launched multiple waves of missiles and kamikaze drones at Israel on Saturday, with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) stating that at least 300 projectiles were fired. While the IDF claimed to have shot down 99% of the incoming drones and missiles, video footage showed numerous impacts on Israeli soil.

Iranian officials insisted that they had “more success than expected” with the barrage, and claimed that two Israeli bases had been destroyed. The IDF acknowledged only minor damage to one military facility.

Israeli general reveals cost of defending against attack – media

Israel has claimed success in defending itself against Saturday’s drone and missile barrages by Iran, but that effort reportedly came at a high price.

The interceptors, jet fuel and other materials expended in shooting down Iran’s unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and missiles cost about 4 billion to 5 billion shekels ($1.06 billion to $1.33 billion), Israeli Brigadier General Reem Aminoach told local media outlet Ynet News on Sunday. The estimate included only Israel’s direct costs, not counting the considerable weaponry used by the US and other allies in helping to defend against the attack.

Aminoach, formerly the financial adviser to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) chief of staff, said West Jerusalem used such munitions as Arrow and David’s Sling interceptor missiles, which have per-unit costs of about $3.5 million and $1 million, respectively. He also included sortie expenses for the fighter jets that did the bulk of the work in shooting down Iranian drones.

The general lamented that it was far cheaper for Iran to launch the attack than for Israel to defend itself. “The attack cost Iran less than 10% of what it cost us to defend against it,” he told Ynet. “In the future – in a year, two years, or five years – they can carry out 50 such attacks. And let’s say that if the IDF’s net budget in 2023 was 60 billion shekels, with less than double that you have no chance of reaching a situation where we can maintain the required amounts.”

The IDF claimed that 99% of the more than 300 kamikaze drones and missiles launched from Iranian territory were successfully intercepted. All of the UAVs and cruise missiles were shot down, military spokesman Daniel Hagari said, while a few ballistic missiles got through Israel’s defenses.

Those projectiles fell at the Nevatim Airbase and caused “only minor damage to infrastructure,” the spokesman said. He added that the drones launched by Iranian-backed militants in Iraq and Yemen all failed to reach Israeli territory. The only casualty was a shrapnel wound to a 10-year-old Bedouin Israeli girl who was hit while sleeping at her home in southern Israel.

Did the West + Israel got the message from Iran?

Iran has shot over 300 hundred missiles and drones depleting the US and Israel of their expensive missiles to counter Iran's huge arsenal in subsequent retaliation. Moreover, the math is Iran's drones and missiles cost less than $20,000 each whereas Israel's are over $1000,000 each. Economics and depletion of stocks prohibit escalating. Doing so will be suicide as Iran will convincingly defeat Israel, even with US help. In addition, NATO has been depleted by Russia so it cannot spare more ammo. Once more, the US and Israel gave up the retaliation because they do not have enough ammo to counter Iran and Hezbollah arsenal of 100,000s of drones and missiles in subsequent attacks which will devastate Israel. The cowards backed off, not because of Biden's alleged call, but knowing Iran does not bluff and will impose an unacceptable cost on the cabal and Zionists. The US and Israel have also been warned by Iran that further aggression will result in blocking the flow of oil and gas from the ME causing economic collapse of the entire West which is facing Russia militarily and damage from economic war on China. The win is Iran's. It defied the US and retaliated which traumatized Israel's population and caused huge economic losses. Economic activity, interdiction of shipping, tourism, immigration and investments in Israel will be stopped, these losses are in the billions. Given these random facts, neither the US, nor Israel or Europe can afford antagonizing Iran, because it hold most winning cards. The most damaging will be closing the Strait of Hormuz and if Iran's survival was at stake it will destroy all oil and gas installation, causing a global depression, The West's economies are stagnant and they are in heavy debt, such outcome will force the collapse of the entire capitalist system and perhaps lead to a global war.
