The "New York Times" reports from Iranian sources that the entire Iranian army is on full alert, and that the Iranian regime has made a decision that the assassination by Israel of senior "Al-Quds" force officials in Damascus requires a direct Iranian response, so as not to damage Iranian deterrence. American analysts estimate that Iran will attack by itself directly against Israel, and not against American targets through emissaries like the Shiite militias in Iraq for example. An ISRAELI security source told the New York Times that the security establishment had reached the same conclusion - Iran itself would attack and not act through Hezbollah, its closest ally, which is waging war of varying intensity against Israel along the northern border since October 7. The estimates now are that Iran will carry out the attack in the coming days, and may wait until the end of Ramadan on Tuesday. Obviously, we should not trust this with our eyes closed, and such an attack could be carried out tonight or tomorrow. It seems that the outline of the Iranian attack against Israel will include between dozens and hundreds of drones, alongside some cruise missiles and possibly ballistic missiles. The target of the attack may be strategic military facilities throughout Israel, or even a single facility where the attack will be focused. If this scenario does occur, it will present Israel with a dilemma on how to respond, and this also depends of course on the intensity of the attack and its damage - loss of life The scope of the attack and the actual damage to the target. ISRAEL has already made it clear to the US that a direct Iranian attack on it, which comes from its territory, will oblige Israel to respond, and here of course lies the danger of a rapid escalation into an extensive and powerful regional conflict, in which Hezbollah will also join. Presumably this is what the head of the military intelligence meant when he said "complex days are ahead of us". Will the IDF be able to successfully thwart a significant Iranian attack? The answer depends on many variables that are currently not entirely clear. We will have to wait and see. ### In my opinion - Iran’s nuclear program is far more important to the ayatollahs than to avenge the death of a few generals which the Iranian media already framed as masterminds behind the general planning of the October 7th massacre. Therefore an attack on an Israeli embassy or target abroad combined with a large dose of drones and rockets fired by the proxies around us would probably be sufficient. Remember, any direct missile attack from Iran on Israel will cause Israel to have to respond and in that case - Iran’s nuclear sites would make the best target! Amir T 1 Like |

The cathedral in Bristol, UK. They claim it’s a multi faith event. Would these events ever be held in a mosque where Christian prayers in Jesus name would be chanted? All I see here is a complete Muslim takeover! Make no mistake - the rallies against Israel are the biggest smokescreen in history for a Muslim takeover of Europe! And if I may add - of America, Australia and South Africa. Amir T

According to his information, “28 diplomatic missions have been closed after Iran’s threat to respond to the attack on its consulate in Damascus.” On Thursday, Kan radio reported that as part of "unprecedented preparedness" for Iran's expected response to the attack attributed to Israel in Damascus, the Israeli Foreign Ministry, in consultation with security officials, decided to evacuate a number of its embassies around the world. |

The Shiite militias in Iraq accept responsibility early this morning for 3 attacks they allegedly carried out on Israeli territory: 1. On Wednesday - a target in Israeli territory "with appropriate weapons". 2. On Wednesday - a target in the Golan using a UAV. 3. Saturday early morning - the refinery facilities in Haifa using a UAV. To the best of my knowledge- None of these targets were hit. Amir T

Just as the ayatollahs don’t represent most Iranians, Hezbollah doesn’t represent most Lebanese people. Lebanon is a beautiful country with amazing people.

The body of Elad Katzir, 47, an abductee from kibbutz Nir Oz, who according to intelligence information was murdered in captivity in mid January by his captors from the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization, was rescued tonight from Khan Yunis in an operation by the commando formation under the direction of the Shin Bet and the IDF and returned to the territory of the State of Israel. During the murderous terrorist attack on October 7, the late Elad Katzir was kidnapped by the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization from Kibbutz Nir Oz. His mother, Hana, was also kidnapped and released on November 24 as part of the plan to return the abductees, and his father, the late Avraham, was murdered in the kibbutz.

Power drunk from the growing American pressure on Israel and the growing demonstrations in Israel (which cause a lot of damage to the abductees, unfortunately) - Hamas raises the price even more. Now they demand a permanent ceasefire, a full withdrawal from the Gaza Strip and the unconditional return of the Gazans to their homes - "at the beginning of every round of negotiations". They also demand immunity for the terrorists from assassination, meaning that Sinwar will go out and make a victory parade in Gaza. |

ISRAEL’S long range ballistic missiles units have entered the coordinates of Iran’s top nuclear sites. The ISRAELI retaliation in case of a direct missile attack from Iranian soil will wipe out Iran’s nuclear program. These are the reasons Iran might use its proxies or launch an attack on an Israeli target abroad. Sources associated with the Syrian opposition claim that for the first time Iran sent a container with suicide drones from the Al Bukamal area on the Syria-Iraq border (in northeastern Syria) to the bases of the pro-Iranian militias in southern Syria (in Daraa, Sweida and Quneitra).

Important information about the uranium enrichment site in Natanz For years there has been talk of an ISRAELI intention to carry out an attack against Iranian nuclear facilities. An attack that will lead to the cessation of the Iranian nuclear program for many years. The fuel enrichment facility in Fordow received a lot of attention following the discovery of the nuclear documents that the Mossad was able to smuggle to Israel. The site is built in such a way that the peak of the rock protects the central assemblies of the centrifuges from aerial damage. The rock above the center of the complex in this case can work on a few tens of meters of ground. A bomb that penetrates bunkers can do damage and possibly disable it. But in the case of Natanz, starting at the end of 2020, Iran began to build an underground facility that would protect the nuclear activity in Natanz. And not just any facility, but a huge tunnel under an entire mountain. From a simple calculation, this facility will have the protection of more than 100 meters of rock above the activity of the centrifugations critical to the creation of a nuclear bomb. ISRAEL must take into account that this tunnel will be ready and will be operational and thus will harm the offensive ability to stop the nuclear program. I trust that this info is known to our intelligence! Videos - one of good quality but not recent, and one of slightly lower quality but more recent Amir T

Apartheid in Israel? Last night, Muslims celebrated not only the last Friday of Ramadan, but also Lailat al-Qadr', the night of destiny, the night of omnipotence, the night on which the archangel Gabriel brought the Koran from heaven. This is celebrated until the early hours of the morning on the Jewish Temple Mount in Jerusalem. No Jewish rule has prevented Muslims from celebrating. On the contrary, towards the last hours it even got wild on the Temple Mount and Muslims praised Hamas. IT

Hebron last night! Also zero apartheid! In the biblical city of the patriarchs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Palestinians also celebrated Lailat al-Qadr in harmony in the tomb of the patriarchs, called Machpela Grotto. Abraham bought the land for the tomb from the Hittite Ephron for 400 shekels of silver (Genesis 23:3-18). Incidentally, Hittites were not Muslims. A tomb that Jews and Muslims have to share and these pictures show Muslims praying last night in the Ibrahimi Haram al-Sharif mosque. What was and is sacred to Jews according to biblical history was conquered by Islam in the Promised Land in the seventh century. Since then, Muslims have built mosques there on what was sacred to Jews, such as on the Jewish Temple Mount or at the Jewish burial site in Hebron. These are just a few of many examples in the country. IT
