With 99% of Missiles Repelled, IRGC Chief Says Attack on Israel ‘More Successful than Expected’ ("TEHRAN BOB")
Jewish Press ^ | 04.14.24

Commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps, Major General Hossein Salami.

Major General Hossein Salami, Commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), on Sunday insisted he had received reports showing that part of the weapons fired by the force toward Israel had directly hit their targets, IRNA reported.

“Our information on all of the hits is not complete yet but on that part of the hits that we have accurate, documented, and field-related reports show that this operation has been carried out with a success that exceeded the expectation,” Salami said.

Hundreds of drones and missiles fired and not one casualty? No dead or injured?

I would expect falling wreckage would kill at least a few, at the very least. Or was this just a very expensive fireworks show, courtesy of the mullahs?

If they had fired that many missles, they would have done more damage.

In keeping with the Biden’s administration of proportional response, which is idiocy, I would suggest the same number of drones and ICBMs be launched at Iran from Israel. Iran’s counter measures for such are almost non existent. Unless the drone or missile fails in flight due to mechanical reasons, IT WILL HIT ITS TARGET.

Suggested list of targets:

1. 43 for the 43 oil storage tanks on Kharg Island. 80% of Iran’s oil revenue is via Kharg Island. Their economy would collapse. Hit the principal oil pumping stations also. You can not go down to Home Depot for repair parts. It could take a long time. Also destroy the docking ports for oil tankers. That is easy. Mine access to Kharg Island from air dropped smart mines. They lay on the bottom and only come up to destroy when they detect the correct acoustic from a tanker.

2. Iran’s nuclear facilities.

3. Electrical facilities feeding power to nuclear facilities.

4. All political leadership if you know where they are.

It was successful. Shooting down Iranian devices that cost thousands each with western defense weapons costing millions each is a great way to run a war of attrition.

Up here in Canaduh, Crime Minister Justin Castreau (hopefully soon to be Ceaușescu), continually hides the salami on Canaduh and Canadians.

Over 1 million immigrants last year (population now 40 million), massive carbon taxes, massive debt, massive housing shortage, etc. Castreau is doing EVERYTHING to destroy Canaduh.

Iran’s currency was destroyed the two days preceding the attack.

It is hard to reconcile that and it all being faked.

It seems more like some people knew in advance that epic failure coming.

Don’t know why people are talking about Kharg Island. The data on that is over a decade old.

Since sanctions became an issue 10 yrs ago, Iran has used small tankers north on the Caspian to intermix its crude with Russian crude that is pipelined . . . wherever they please. They certainly never paid much attention to sanctions.

And of somewhat more importance is these numbers:

Iran oil consumption, 1.9 million barrels/day. Iran oil production 3.82 million barrels/day. It’s very good quality oil, btw, with large diesel constituent yield, versus shale.

Iran gas consumption, 229 billion cubic meters/yr. Iran gas production, 260 billion cubic meters/yr. Nearly all of this difference goes to Turkey.

Europe has hunted a replacement for GAZPROM, and there are nearly no alternatives. Iran would be one.

>biden immediately told Bibi to f--- off >balls now in Israels court

It’s going to happen soon anyway. Might as well be Israel to show what they have, first

Meanwhile, Iran just blew the US off without any consequences. More loss of standing on the World stage.

Iran was afraid of the United States when Trump was President. No one fears the deep states puppet.

When do the other angles get entertained?

I’ve read one trick pony angle thus far.

Interestingly, the tester angle was the one offered up first-

by folks that have been wrong about everything in both conflicts since day one.

From Russia will annex Ukraine in a month to six weeks-

to every crackpot in the ME was going to jump in and aid Iran.

I know, I know even a broken clock......

That’s the definition of a narcissistic loser: Declare victory and quickly change the subject.
