Their last attack killed a single Palestinian and Israel just destroyed their air defense with planes in response. There is no scenario where Iran comes out ahead in this. Does the Supreme Leader think he has a chance, does he think he has to do this to save face to retain power, or is it just suicidal hatred of Jews and the West?
It's because Israel attacked them.
Israel attacked Iran, because Iran launched a missile rocket volley at them, because Israel was attacking Iranian proxy forces in Lebanon (Hezbollah), because Hezbollah was firing rockets into north Israeli settlements, because Israel was decimating the Gaza Strip, because Hamas launched an attack last October, because Israel… because Hamas… because… because… because…
In the end, this ‘an eye for an eye’ will leave the world blind.
an eye for an eye is more restrained than the Israeli response
He thinks he has God on his side.
He has a chance because the rest of the ME is waiting for what He does. If this shit goes hot Israel ceases to exist. Attacked from literally every direction. Not a piddling couple retaliatory strikes either. Full bore, fire at will, real fire_everything.gif hours. Israel knows that. So does the US. (The US can't stop this btw. Basically existing as moral support in the region right now.)
So he's just completely delusional?
