Confirmed Israel attacked Iran

💠Israeli Defense Minister, Israel Katz, announced that the Israeli government has carried out a preemptive strike against Iran "to eliminate threats against the State of Israel."

Katz declared a special state of emergency across the country and warned that missile and drone attacks against Israel and its civilian population are expected soon.

Instructions from the Home Front Command must be followed, and people should remain in protected locations.

So, let me count score real quick to see if I understand the situation:

Iran:

  • Completely destroyed at least 1 American base, heavily damaged multiple others
  • Killed over 500 American soldiers throughout the region
  • Cut one of the most important maritime choke-points on Earth
  • Struck dozens of targets in Israel

All that in 2 days.

Meanwhile all the US-Israel alliance has to for their aggression is they killed a bunch of civilians plus a few politicians and maybe a general.

Do I have this about right? Surely I'm missing something and it's not that one-sided right?

The 560 included wounded people. But yes, the info is from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, not from an independent third party.
