The White House on Tuesday said the US believes Iran is preparing an imminent ballistic missile attack against Israel.
“The United States has indications that Iran is preparing to imminently launch a ballistic missile attack against Israel. We are actively supporting defensive preparations to defend Israel against this attack. A direct military attack from Iran against Israel will carry severe consequences for Iran,” a senior White House official said in a statement.
Tensions between Israel and Iran have ratcheted up significantly in recent weeks as Israel has stepped up its efforts against Hezbollah in Lebanon, an Iran-backed militant group. Israel on Monday launched a ground operation in southern Lebanon targeting Hezbollah.

Israel will put them out of the oil biz immediately this time if they carry this attack out.
It’s also past time to whack the Ayatollah and his underlings.

Buh bye, Tehran.
Awfully sporting of Joe to offer Israel defensive assistance after underwriting the attack.

Iran wouldn’t have the ability to do such a thing if DJT was President today.

The current administration doesn’t care, in fact, most of them probably want to see such an attack.
Forget Iran, forget the problems in NC, can we get some more money for Ukraine? (That’s where the money laundering really happens).

If true, this proves Israel has done MAJOR damage to Iran’s terrorism operation.
If Iran does launch ballistic missiles at Israel, their evil regime will be ended by a furious and devastating counterattack. The tyranny in Iran may soon be completely destroyed. The people of Iran will rejoice when that happens.
