I am listening to people saying that this is a "Golden opportunity " for Israel to attack Iran. The people saying this should personally volunteer their life, and their children's lives for their cause. I cannot say this enough, there is never anything "Golden" about war. If you want it, you go fight it yourself. I have been to war, there is no reward.
LOOOL this is a calculated political ruse by the US, Israel and the UK to garner white sympathy for colonial Israel, at a time when every Palestinian death was a nail pulled-out from the metal coffin that is the occupation... Will support for Israel rise, now that Israel has given itself a potential war against a bigger rival, in Iran-instead of the white world focusing on the Genocide of hapless Palestinians... If Israel responds with F35s the kremlin will be interested in collecting a few samples-because, Tehran has the capacity to make any "air superiority", a suicide mission...
It's chance for us to keep Iran engaged on israel front so that their support to Russia can be diverted, if matter escalates further then us gets chance to neutralize Iran nuclear programme
War isn't beneficial for the individual but there absolutely are cases where war leads to a reward for the community as a whole be it preserving your way of life / independence / avoiding a more undesirable state of world in the future etc. The cost of war is on the current generation where as the rewards are for the current and future generations. Also you having been to war has nothing to do with anything
But people are underestimating Iran, just like America underestimated North Korea until North Korea showed their true power, Iran has been building nuclear weapons for decades now. They are on par with Saudi in terms of military capability
One shot one kill vs response of hundreds of drones and missiles is the difference. Let’s say Israel sends only 50% of drones and missiles to Iran, isn’t that going to result in potential mass deaths? Iran should’ve sent a real message instead of a firework show
The difference was Israel's air defense systems and without those being as effective as it was, then there would have been many civilian casualties on the Israeli side which would have resulted in a massive Israeli retaliation. And an Israeli attack on Iran with missiles, drones and other means would have been more destructive due to Iran not having the air defense systems capabilities as Israel.
@@nahaaniimataal but that’s my point.. everyone knows Israel boasts their air defense system. Iran might have some weapons that could’ve sent a legit message but instead sent hundreds and say hope you guys can block these and then say if you retaliate, then there will be more severe consequences… this seems to be a baiting game at the risk of civilian lives if Israel does send a few drones and missiles over to Iran as a “response” back but to a much less degree.
Exactly, I wish that is always the case, do you remember back in those days, the king leads the army to war, that should be brought back, the king will forefront the army
People who bombed Iran's embassy talking about international laws 🙂🙂 supported by the team called : the Double standard Team🙂 At least Iran warned you about the attack,

You can easily find that elsewhere, and they don’t have anything to worry about. It’s a complete joke, the tooth to tail ratio prevents them from invading anyone who doesn’t directly border them. Did you forget their “aircraft carrier” lol it was a cargo ship that they drove a missile launcher on. It sunk on its first sea mission.
@@ars571 Lol. They do talk a lot of garbage but when they come up against any organized military they run into hiding. Using their proxies to try to attack Israel. Israel will flatten them and liberate the young people there who are craving democracy and freedom.
Iran was doing a preliminary testing the defences kind of attack. Their stockpile of large missiles and drones is known to be much larger than the attack suggests.
Actually a bully hits you, you hit back, he stops bullying you once he gets push back and sees that it's not worth the effort and goes to find someone easier to pick on
Iran just threw a soft ball to Israel with plenty of advance notice. An intelligent and rational person might see this as the time to call a halt. A warmonger might choose a different course.
Nah, Iran security is so lousy that it has already been infiltrated by spies on every level. Worst still, they exhausted all their drone still achieve absolutely nothing. What a joke
Exactly. Iran dont seem to want a war against Israel. They have tried that before with no success...I think they attacked back to send a message. But i fear Israel are seeing this as their chance to eliminate another enemy of theirs... I miss the days before wars and pandemics!
Funny how the fan boy argued shooting 170+ drones, 120+ ballistic missiles and 20+ cruise missiles are sending a message 🤣 the truth is clear as crystal: Iran tried to kills, but failed. Half of their cruise missiles didn't even launched. Iran is simply a weak, paper tiger that has no strength. They sent everything they had and still achieved NOTHING. Because they are just weak
DW blind fools It's simple If Israel had not attacked the Iran embassy in Syria ,Iran would not have retaliated . Iran has full right to defend its territory and people.
A united diplomatic response to IRAN's attack??!??! Where was the united diplomatic response to Israel's attack on Iran's embassy? Let alone Israel's aggression of the last six months. This has become unbearably absurd.
Imagine taking 4 countries to shut down something you consider as fire crackers, then if they release their flagship missiles, I am sure Israel will have a second thought about attacking Iran next time

@@quang922 isreal people are the victim of both hamas attake and iran attake ... most have nothing to do with any of it .. and so far we dont even have proof it was isreal .. it could be a false flag form other country to start the fighting
Because those seven revolutionary guards were dealing, directing and supporting terror against Israel. Before october 7 Israel did not attack directly revolutionary guards in Syria or elesewhere but after october 7 when Iran revolutionary guards took part in planning the massacre Israel is targeting revolutionary guards directly elsewhere
@@odedshashua2763Iran had nothing to do with October 7, so that rules that out and I think you need to look into who funded Hamas in the first place. Here is a clue look up the prime minister of Israel.
@@noelter you are wrong. Iran took part in it in order that it will be together with other frontiers but Sinwar decided to do it in earlier date then the Iranian plans with hope that the other frontiers will open after him. Well i hope that Netanyahu will go as soon as possible and he let Katar give miney to Chamas abdvthe meening was to improve Gaza people level of life. Of course Chamas used it to build tunnels and Iean armed the Chamas but this does not change the fact that Iran had everything to do with ictober 7 althiugh not the date itself. Whatever they dill with terror and are legutimate targets i meen those seven revolutionary guards
1:00 I'm not able to speak Israel because I only speak English but when Daniel was speaking I could somehow clearly understand him and hear his voice as if he was speaking English but I was able to understand Israel in that moment. PRAISE GOD the end times are truly among us and this is PROOF 🙌 ❤
*as an American of some youth left in me, I really wanna see a time in my life where we in the USA are once again open with Iran like prior to the 1970s.* They have such a beautiful country and some of the oldest human history that we even are aware of. It’s such a shame we can’t even speak of this
You mean the time when the oil hungry US installed a puppet Shah there and crushed Iran‘s democratic movement? Nope thanks arsenal of Western hypocrisy 👎
I do too, but religion has caused them to draw a line in the sand in regards to Israel's existence. Until the Ayatollah dies, this official stance will be unlikely to ever change. There were times in the past Israel has agreed to give Palestinians in Gaza their own state, but Iran & Hezbollah did not support it because it didn't come with the destruction of Israel on top of it. Israel itself has only become more hawkish & ready to use force, making itself a villain by retaliating on civilians... just because terrorists might be in the general vicinity. If Iran would accept anything other than Israel's complete dissolution (something they'll never agree to), then maybe there will be peace one day.
the question is, what is Israel’s response to iran? their nuclear program perhaps? next best question is, how is iran’s air defense if Israel struck them with the same amount of weapons? the iranian regime just signed their death warrant…
It's hilarious how some supporters of these attacks say "it was a deliberately poor attack, in order to not hurt civilians" whereas others say "it was extremely succesful and many intended targets were hit". Is there a version where this attack is described according to reality: pathetic yet representative?
Who tf said the attack was poor IN ORDER TO NOT HURT CIVILIANS? lol ... Who made that one up? They intercepted like 99% of it. So no, it was a straight up failure and everyone who claims it was "extremly succesful" should tell me what success they had. Because there's none.
Iran gave about 7 days advance notice. Crossed airspace of Syria and Jordan and Iraq, Faced air defences USA, UK, Jordan, France. And hit two military airbase. Is it not impressive.😂
They didn't hit anything. Isreal wanted to use it as an excuse to attack Iran by claiming that something was lightly hit. Let them show us the picture of that thing that was hit.
''If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.'' El-Hagg Malik-Shabazz
So... Iran managed to damage 2 military airfield, 1 communication center, 1 AA station, and people keep calling this attack a failure... Let's face it: Iran penetrated Israels AA systems with multiple rockets and hit multiple targets and they did it with NOT their most advanced rockets and missiles. (Noone cares if Shaheds were shot down, those were decoys anyways.) Let this sink in: Iran could damage military objects with great precision despite EW and jamming over 1000+ km. USA immediately said they won't take part in an attack against Iran. That is a clear indicator that they know that Iran is capable of doing great damage and they don't want to risk it. The perfect solution would be if Israel just backs down and let the dust settle.
Did Israel really think their bombing of the Iranian Embassy in Syria , go without a response ?? Israel killed a couple of their top military personnel. When one country bomb sovereign territory of another, is it not natural or expected that there would be a response of force in return?
It costs one billion Dollars for Israel to deal with 300 mostly drones that costs 2000 Dollars each. Who will win in a large scale long and unpredicted war
Iranians distracted israel air defense system. Very smart. They hide 30 missiles among 200 drones and rockets to let the David's Sling be off loaded .Then they hit their 4 targets from north to the south of Israel. Even Scot Ritter says not even one of them are intercepted
The reality is that they hit the airbase that launched the initial attack on their embassy in Syria. Their proof of concept has been achieved and now Israel needs to rethink the diplomatic approach and achieve detente and the cessation of escalation or hostilities between Iran and Israel. Now is not the time for further provocation and the Iranians know that.
This attack showed that Israel cannot defend itself against a military capable of launching long range drones, missiles and ballistic missiles without the US, UK and even Jordan. Iran has a lot more long range weapons in stock but can Israel replenish enough air defense rockets its already used against HAMAS and Hezbollah rockets recently after this attack? Same goes for the US and UK who have to replenish what they used.
>This attack showed that Israel cannot defend itself even when it was notified 72hr before the attack and knew time, trajectories and targets and get lots of outside help.
The US and UK can replenish. The question is how much longer will US and UK support continue? Defensive support for a while, but offensive support might stop soon. Both the US and UK are facing internal pressure to stop supplying weapons.
You are wrong. US and other countries intercepted 70 of 200 drones, 2-3 balistic missiles and all the rest cruise missiles and balistic missiles were intercepted by Israel air force and air defense. The help of USA and the other countries was not a must but just a welcome. There is no connection between the firing from Gaza and Lebanon to the current Iranian attack. For them we use Iron dome and for Iran it's Arrow and david sling mainly. You are right about one thing and that is that the attack is much less expensive then the defense and we can't allow that Iran will make such attack everytime they don't like someting and that's why we nead to fretaliate by attack in Iran that will heart them and make them think twice about the next attack
@@odedshashua2763 You may want to review what Biden and US diplomatic messaging have been recently. Biden switched from the US saying we will absolutely supply weapons to Israel no matter what to we will supply defensive weapons. When Israel bombed the Iranian diplomatic compound the initial US reply was -- we had nothing to do with this don't retaliate against the US. it was not don't do anything. The US waited to say don't do anything. In The UK the government has received legal on if it may be complicit in war crimes and/or genocide if the UK helps Israel. They will not let the opposition or the public know what that advice was. They would not withhold the information if it was there is no legal danger to the UK at all. The polls in the UK have shown the current government losing badly if there is an election for over a year and they keep getting worse. They have to hold an election by January. If Israel escalates tension in the region again it may find itself air defence but no offensive resupply weapons and no diplomatic cover from sanctions. The US won't sanction Israel but they won't fight very hard to stop EU and other Western countries from sanctioning Israel. Israel claimed it was not blocking aid for 6 months. Then 3 days after the IDF killed an American aid worker and the US told Israel to stop blocking aid, it went from under 100 trucks to 300 or 400 trucks a day. No Western countries believe Israeli statements anymore. If Israel does any more to make the situation worse people in Western countries drop all support of Israel.
pretty obvious IRan said they were done. Also obvious that Netinyahu is gonna overreact or at the very least fire back at Iran... Which is why I dont understand what Iran was trying to accomplish with this attack....its not a deterrant if they all get shot down, AND you are now gonna get hit and take losses....

She said that “ I didn’t sleep last night because of Iranian drones” but she didn’t said the Israelis killed 40 thousand innocent people including children and women with American donations in Gaza. Therefore, people there didn’t have proper meal and sanitation last 7 months and living in camps for decades. One night fear for someone but others whole life of suffering, seems unfair to me.
Iran has been attacking Israel since Oct 7. I doubt they will stop -- whether themselves or through proxies makes no difference to their existential threat to Israel.
6:22 "it is certain that Iran is vulnerable to Israel due to the long distance between the two countries" that literally makes zero sense. You either don't know how distances work or what vulnerable means.
So israel just flies willy nilly across hundreds of miles of enemy airspace, without US refueling or airbases, since the arabs won't allow it, and attack Iran? Not likely with airplanes, but they do have missiles so let them fly, what then? Israel is a paper tiger, but they shouldn't let everyone know it.
Iran has a much weaker air defence system than Israel, so it could be argued that Israel would have the advantage of a long distance war where Iran cannot leverage it's much larger ground forces
Q for Mike Martin. Given you believe that the drones were mainly shot done by the Americans What % of the drones shot down by the Israel would you resign over
7th October 2023. That is why people support Israel. You attack and then retaliated start with the Victim Card. you cannot expect to play with your proxies and then not expect the fire to reach your home. We all know the proxy funding Iran isnt innocent.
Of course the receiving side will NEVER announce the true damages they sustained... It is too early to tell now, but, this could escalate a few notches more up to the point of no return.
There should be more emphasis on the fact that Iran gave a week’s notice before they attacked, and the America and its allies had to assist Isreal in shooting down a large portion of the missiles and drones. This may imply that if Iran and Isreal were to get into a full blown war, Isreal would need to drag in America and its allies to be successful. Not a conflict I want to be involved in, in any way at all!

Madam Swetiova is right when she says that as a mother she is worried about the war, but then Israel’s response to Iran must be such that it should make citizens of Iran and of other adventurers in Middle East to be equally if not more scared of what is in store for them.
No one is scared of Israel. The Sampson option is fiction. Nuclear weapons do not exist. Inert material doesn't store energy. There are large scale conventional explosives, the larger they are the bigger the craft or rocket to carry them and the easier they are to target. The American air force doesn't want to contend with Iran which is why America hasn't attacked them and nor will Israel.
Iran has approx 560 fighters, made up of old F-14 Tomcats (40-50). F-4 Phantom (60-70). Some Sukhois And MIGs, the only thing that is a concern is the MIGs and Sukhois. The rest of the fleet is outdated like radars and computering. Iran is DONE 💥
The Iranian was just testing the efficacy efficiency accuracy of the Israeli defense system. And the most important was the sustainability from a continuous attack with duds missiles and drones. Iran have all the trump cards in their hand and Israel can’t do anything to counteract the Iranian superiority.
They have 150 kilograms of 60% refined uranium... With that, and the current state of the art in Iran, they can make 1-3 nuclear weapons in as little as 3 days. Keeping fully refined uranium on hand is a risky business, storing at 60% with the ability to rapidly purify is safer.
Yea it's disastrous for Iran because it will lead to Iran's destruction. Remember the fanatics are not afraid of dying because they will get the virgins "allah" or the peso start with "M' have promised.

If there were no Iron Dome, we might be facing a situation similar to what happened in Ukraine. Thankfully, Israel has this defense system in place. Israel needs to respond, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the US supports them in neutralizing any unclear threats.
