According to the report, the targets include an Iranian facility in Tehran or a cyberattack.

In a visit to the Nevatim base on Monday, IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi said that the Iranian attack which was carried out early Sunday morning will be met with an Israeli response, according to Israeli media.

    The bombing of the embassy was an escalation. Intentional.

    Where you get into theories, is how does Israel benefit from an escalated shooting war? Does it get them international support so that their genocide in Gaza is ignored? Does it get the current incumbent president more time within an emergency context so they don’t have to deal with political pressure internally? Fighting external wars to solve internal problems is a traditional tool dictators have fallen upon in the past

      I think the genocide gets ignored whether or not they get international support. And I think Netanyahu knows this full well.

      Israel and Iran going to war was something everyone pretty much felt was an inevitability one day, so “it’s finally happened” covers up genocide quite well.
