    As Tehran residents evacuated the capital in increasing numbers, Israel’s defence minister, Israel Katz, threatened to make Tehranis “pay the price” for Ali Khamenei’s decision to keep firing missiles at Israel in retaliation for the Israeli attack.

    This is literally an adult… saying “why are you hitting yourself”.

        Iran has the right to self defense just like Israel, so are they not now justified in killing 30x as many civilians like Israel does?

      Does Iran have operational nukes? They’d probably respond in kind. If not, they’d probably launch basically everything they have at Israel.

        They do not, that’s kind of what this whole deal is about dude. And they’ve been launching what they have at Israel for a few days, it’s not much.

          It’s not much? They broke through the iron dome, that’s a bit more than not much my dude.

            It’s not nothing but Israel is bombing targets on Iran’s eastern border right now, that speaks a clear language.

          Most countries, Israel included, don’t possess the material for a protracted war. Most Non-US countries can make war, at best, for six months.
