Iranian leaders are calling for war but .... don't really want one .... seems to be a lot of hot air & blusterBecause Saudi's leaders wouldn't mind seeing Iran, and their Houthi rebels being taken down a notch, but they can't be seen to be thinking this publicly.
If Iran launched 2,000 drones and missiles from Lebanon/Syria, Israel's air force and air bases would be decimated. There's only 10 airbases over a relatively small area.
Though Israel have managed to hide them in civilian areas (at least that's what they'd claim if Hamas had airbases like Ben Gurion (Lod) and Tel Nof).
Nobody wins in war. Even if Israel won a battle in Lebanon with Iran's proxies, Iran are edging closer and closer to nuclear weapons and are more and more aligned with Russia who will be just about desperate enough to sell one to them if they can't develop their own. Israel are biting off way more than they can chew.
Top officials being eliminated .... strikes on their own soil they cannot stop
They seem to be under a lot of presssure at the moment .... could it be that the regime is on the precipice?
