Israel, Iran etc...

As Iran protests grow,

Israel watches closely 

but prefers to remain on sidelines

The Times of Israel 1/12/26

"Ex-intel official says 

Jerusalem unlikely to strike unprovoked, 

as it would risk weakening demonstrations; 

(Unlike US right?

So what would be the more "prudent"

course of action really?)

Hebrew U expert says Iranian instigation 

would be ‘suicide for regime’

"AP — Israel is “closely monitoring” the fallout from widespread Iranian protests, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday, as US President Donald Trump’s threats to attack Iran could escalate the protests within the borders of the Islamic Republic into a regional war."

(It's kinda the plan yo.

Gotta know who Trump really is.)

"Israel has been on alert for the possibility that Tehran will launch an attack, either to focus the public on an external enemy or in response to a US strike."

"But the military said there were no new guidelines for civilians to stay close to bomb shelters over concerns of a potential Iranian missile attack. Such warnings have been in the past when there were concrete threats"

"A former Israeli intelligence official said Israel is unlikely to instigate an attack against Iran, even though it could have an easy target, as Iran’s leadership is weakened and distracted by the protests roiling the country."

"Neither side has an appetite for another war

The current situation in Iran is so uncertain that Israel is likely to wait and see what will happen next, Citrinowicz said. He added that “neither side has an appetite” to start a repeat of the 12-day war of last summer."

"The war began with Israel targeting Iranian nuclear and military sites, saying it could not allow Tehran to develop atomic weapons and that it feared the Islamic Republic was close. It also said Iran’s ballistic missile arsenal had become a major existential threat."

"On Sunday, Iran’s parliament speaker warned the US military and Israel would be “legitimate targets” if America strikes the Islamic Republic."

"Citrinowicz said that an attack, either American or Israeli, could have the opposite impact on the protests, possibly even weakening the protests by fostering a sense of patriotism and uniting against a common enemy."

(Thats what smart people understand.)

"An internal Iranian affair

“What Israel is really concerned with 

is ballistic missiles,..."

And rightfully so.

I love how they do this stuff...

(And read all of the links.)

"...and stuff like that, not what kind of regime is going to be in Iran,” said Menahem Merhavy, an expert on Iran from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem."

“Unless there’s something really dramatic happening with missiles, I don’t see Israel stepping into this.”

“Israel doesn’t want to meddle with this. It’s internally an Iranian matter,” Merhavy said.

So then

why would we?

Or in this case?

Since it is dealing with missiles?

Maybe it is.

Israel doesnt want US inviolved.

There is only one reason

we ever would be

and that would be for Iran

to unload its ballastic missiles

on Israel.

All this:

‘suicide for (Irainian) regime’

is nonsense, or

“What Israel is really concerned with 

is ballistic missiles,..."

just wouldnt be the case.

Iran was getting their more advanced missiles through a lot more stout combined US and Israel Air Defenses back in the 12 day skirmish than they would ever have to deal with now.

The Islamic Republic of Irons 

complete reason to exist

is based on eliminating Israel.
