The unprecedented Iranian assault early Sunday morning has far-reaching consequences. As does the manner in which Israel responds.

The senior officials declined to say if or how Israel should respond to the aggression but said Washington would not participate in any strike against the Islamic Republic.
The IDF and allied militaries intercepted 99% of the more than 300 drones and missiles fired by Tehran and its terror proxies.
“No, Joe Biden. The Iranian regime’s failure to do major damage with 350 missiles is not a ‘win’—9 million Israelis spent the night being terrorized.”
“The State of Israel is strong. The IDF is strong. The public is strong,” said the Israeli premier.
Israel’s negotiations with the Hamas regime over the Israeli hostages in Gaza are reminiscent of the biblical Exodus. Moses negotiated with Pharaoh to let his people go.
Tehran and its proxies fired some 170 drones, 30 cruise missiles and 120 ballistic missiles at various targets in Israel.
While the United States is expected to veto the Palestinian Authority’s UN membership bid, the administration has signaled this may not be the case.
Israel’s primary post-war goal in Gaza should focus on avoiding the type of thinking that allowed Hamas’s Oct. 7 assault to occur, says senior IDF strategist.
