Beyond Staggering Over $1.3 Billion Missile Defense Show Lights Up Israeli Skies
By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers
A worrisome new Security Council (SC) report circulating in the Kremlin today providing further evidence that the lunatic childish leaders ruling over the socialist Western colonial powers need urgent mental health care and adult supervision, says while the world fearfully awaited a response to Israel grossly violating the United Nations Charter to strike the Iranian Embassy in Syria on 1 April, on Friday it saw demented and deranged Supreme Socialist Leader Joe Biden ordering Iran about a possible military response: “Don’t”.
Quickly following Socialist Leader Biden’s “don’t” order to Iran, which came in place of him joining the rest of the world in condemning Israel’s blatant violation of the United Nations Charter, this report notes, the Financial Times in London revealed: “The US has asked China and other countries, including Turkey and Saudi Arabia, to urge Tehran not to launch a retaliatory attack on Israel for its air strike on the Iranian consulate in Syria”, then it was observed: “Persian Gulf countries have reportedly told the United States not to launch any attacks against Iran from their territory or airspace amid seething regional tensions…Sources, including a senior US official told the Middle East Eye that Gulf monarchies have been working overtime on the diplomatic track to shut down avenues that could link them to a US reprisal against Tehran or its proxies from bases inside their kingdoms…The countries include regional heavyweights Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Kuwait, with their leaderships reportedly raising questions on the details of US basing agreements, and taking steps to prevent the use of their Iran-adjacent bases against the Islamic Republic…NATO member Turkiye has also reportedly barred the US from using its airspace for strikes against Iran”.
In response to Socialist Leader Biden’s “don’t” order issued on Friday, this report continues, Iranian commandos seized an Israeli-linked cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz yesterday—Iran then launched its operation “His Promise Is True” massive strike against Israel—at 6:06 PM in New York City on 13 April (1:36 PM in Tehran on 14 April), the Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations issued the statement: “Conducted on the strength of Article 51 of the UN Charter pertaining to legitimate defense, Iran’s military action was in response to the Zionist regime’s aggression against our diplomatic premises in Damascus…The matter can be deemed concluded…However, should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe…It is a conflict between Iran and the rogue Israeli regime, from which the U.S. MUST STAY AWAY!”—President Donald Trump then posted the warning message: “ISRAEL IS UNDER ATTACK!…This should never have been allowed to happen – This would NEVER have happened if I were President!”—and this morning, Iranian Armed Forces Chief-Of-Staff Major General Mohammad Bagheri issued the statement: “Israel’s actions could not have gone unanswered…The Supreme Leader also said that this punishment should be carried out and, thank God, this operation was carried out with the efforts of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps and the help of other armed forces…We see this operation as a complete result, and this operation has ended in our opinion, and we have no intention of continuing the operation…If Israel takes any further action against Iran, the next operation will be much more extensive”.
Greeting the Iranian operation “His Promise Is True” massive strike, this report details, were the Israeli air defense systems Iron Dome, SCHILKA, Barak MX System, Arrow Missile Family, Sky Capture and the secretive Eagle Eye III—and are Israeli air defense systems even Western nations are spending billions-of-dollars to buy after watching the American ones continue to fail in Ukraine.
After Israeli air defense systems greeted Iran’s operation “His Promise Is True” massive strike, this report notes, Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari announced: “The Israel Defense Forces intercepted 99% of about 300 Iranian missiles that flew towards it…Iran launched 170 drones toward Israel, but none of them reached Israel’s borders – they were shot down by the Israeli military and its allies…In addition, Iran fired 30 cruise missiles at Israel, and the IDF managed to intercept 25 of them…Iran also fired 120 ballistic missiles at Israel…Some of them overcame Israel’s anti-missile defense system and reached the Nevatim airbase…The base sustained minor damage”—the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps issued the statement: “The Islamic Republic’s military managed to hit and destroy important military targets”—all of which was joined by the Israeli news service Ynet article “The Staggering Cost Of Israel’s Defense Against Iran’s Missile Attack: ‘4-5 Billion Shekels Per Night’”, wherein it revealed: “Iran’s massive missile attack overnight between Saturday and Sunday on Israel was stopped by Israel’s sophisticated defense systems…It obviously cost a lot of money, and the question, among others that arise the next morning, is how much?…Brig. Gen. Reem Aminoach, former financial advisor to the IDF chief of staff, tried to estimate…”The defense tonight was on the order of 4-5 billion shekels””—and is an amount that equals over $1.3 billion.
Following the most expensive in human history missile defense show that lit up Israeli skies, this report continues, Politico revealed: “G7 leaders will hold a videoconference Sunday afternoon to coordinate a united response to Iran’s attack on Israel, which threatens to spark an escalation in the fighting in the Middle East”—the just released Axios article “Scoop: Biden Told Bibi U.S. Won’t Support An Israeli Counterattack On Iran” also revealed: “President Biden told Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a call on Saturday that the U.S. won’t support any Israeli counterattack against Iran…Biden and his senior advisers are highly concerned an Israeli response to Iran’s attack on Israel would lead to a regional war with catastrophic consequences…”You got a win. Take the win”, Biden told Netanyahu”—and the leftist New York Times revealed today: “Two Israeli officials said some war cabinet members had urged a retaliatory strike, but that was called off after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel spoke by phone with President Biden on Saturday, and because the strikes caused relatively minor damage…The officials did not elaborate on the contents of the call between the leaders…Israel’s defense minister, Yoav Gallant, said early Sunday that the confrontation with Iran was “not over yet””.
With the Israeli “not over yet” threat now hanging over the world, this report concludes, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres fearfully warned: “I am deeply alarmed about the very real danger of a devastating region-wide escalation…I urge all parties to exercise maximum restraint to avoid any action that could lead to major military confrontations on multiple fronts in the Middle East…I have repeatedly stressed that neither the region nor the world can afford another war”—the Chinese Foreign Ministry issued the urgent demand: “The ongoing situation is the latest spillover of the Gaza conflict…There should be no more delays in implementing UN Security Council Resolution 2728 and the conflict must end now”—and the Russian Foreign Ministry most factually observed:
On the night of 14 April, a large number of missiles and drones were launched into Israel.
According to the Iranian Foreign Ministry, this attack was carried out within the framework of the right of self-defense, in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter, in response to attacks on Iranian facilities in the region, including the attack on the building of the consular department of the Iranian Embassy in Damascus on 1 April, which our country strongly condemned.
Unfortunately, due to the position of its Western members, the UN Security Council was unable to adequately respond to the attack on the Iranian consular mission.
We express our utmost concern about another dangerous escalation in the region.
We have repeatedly warned that the failure to resolve numerous crisis in the Middle East, especially in regard to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, will lead to increased tensions.
We call on all parties involved to exercise restraint.
We hope that regional countries will solve existing problems through political and diplomatic means.
We believe it is important that constructive international players contribute to this.
