Sounds, or seems, as though the Hebrew State finds itself in a tough spot - go or not to

go. We are learning the US military was a huge factor in protecting the Israelis and causes me to wonder if their defenses are not as stout as led to believe. If the IDF responds I cannot imagine Iran 'staying pat'. If the Iranians respond is there the capability of fending off the sure to be next round?

Further, if Israel chooses not to respond it may signal weakness in some segments - right or wrong. I guess they could say our focus for the time being remains Gaza but that might be a hard sell.

I guess we all simply 'stay tuned' for the next episode of 'As the Middle East Teeters and Todders'.

If Israel responds, Israel would succeed and take out Iran, and win the conflict. But not before Israel is seriously hit and damaged, thousands of missiles are flying all across the Middle East and possibly hundreds of thousands, to millions of civilian casualties, and God knows what could go wrong from all these missiles just flying all over the place.

Is it worth it? Israel took out the IRGC commander, which has a big impact on Israel’s war with Hamas and ongoing piss match with Hezbollah. Iran isn’t willing to retaliate in a way that seriously threatens Israel yet. Iran just wanted to save face and try and win a propaganda war. Very very tough spot here for Israel.

Iran response was not serious.

Israel should shrug it off and finish the job with Hamas.

Israel is a welfare state that would cease to exist if it wasn’t propped up by the US.

Once the Mullahs get their nukes and things are more equal, things will get better. Islam just wants the Palestinians to have their own State just like the Jews do.
