Iran says Israel faces “crushing defeat” if it responds to ballistic missile counterattack with more force

If Israel wants to avoid “a crushing defeat,” the Jewish state must not respond to Iran’s recent ballistic missile counterattack with its own counter-counterattack, Iran is warning.

After Iran rained down hundreds of missiles on Israel for assassinating top Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah this past week, Israel started talking about a response that Iran says should be avoided unless Israel wants to incur more damages.

The media is reporting that Iran’s counterattack against Israel is the largest to have ever occurred. Some of the missiles were intercepted by Israel and its best friend the United States, while others struck their intended targets, including in heavily populated Tel Aviv.

With the exception of one Palestinian civilian in the West Bank, no other civilian deaths were reported inside Israeli territory. An Israeli official did confirm that “several hits were identified and the damage is being assessed.”

Biden calls Iranian attack “defeated and ineffective”

U.S. officials were quick to downplay the Iranian attack. President Biden and national security adviser Jake Sullivan both described what Iran did as “defeated and ineffective,” reiterating that they and their regime stand with Israel no matter what.

The two-wave attack involved about 180 missiles – some sources are claiming closer to 200 missiles – that saw mixed success. Some were intercepted by U.S. Navy destroyers and Israel’s air defense systems working in tandem.

Iran says it is done responding to Israel, assuming there are no further Israeli attacks on Iran. Should Israel proceed to poke the hornets’ nest again, Iran is planning to respond with “a crushing defeat.”

“We will protect the citizens of Israel,” proclaimed Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman Daniel Hagari. “This attack will have consequences. We have plans. We will act at the time and place of our choosing.”

Sullivan also commented to suggest that Iran’s counterattack on Israel “is a significant escalation on the part of Iran.” Once again, instead of noting that Iran was responding to what Israel did first, Sullivan painted a picture of Israel being the victim against Iran, the aggressor.

“There will be severe consequences for this Iranian attack and we will work with Israel to make sure that is the case,” Sullivan continued.

Rather than focus on U.S. citizens, and especially those whose lives were destroyed by Hurricane Helene, the Biden regime is busy doing Israel’s bidding just the same as U.S. regimes before it, including both Democrat and Republican regimes.

Instead of focusing on the Americans they were voted into office to represent, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been busy watching the situation in Israel from the Situation Room. The Israeli Security Cabinet was simultaneously watching from its own bunker near Jerusalem.

What this all means is that Israel is now at war with two of Iran’s allied militias at the same time: Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Iran has said it wants to avoid a full-scale regional war, but Israel seems hellbent on creating one in order to achieve Netanyahu’s goals.

Iran’s first-ever direct attack on Israeli territory occurred back in April when it sent drones and missiles Israel’s way. This latest attack by Iran using ballistic missiles represents a serious escalation since Israel has a lot harder time deterring these kinds of missiles.

“Ballistic missiles can reach Israel within 12 minutes, while drones and cruise missiles leave more time to defend against,” Axios reported about the differences.
