Re: Reporting from Israel
The Israeli ambassador at the United Nations said the same thing in his speech LINK and he also said that there needs to be more Churchill and less Chamberlain.
Re: Reporting from Israel
Reports suggest US officials believe Israel is considering a "limited and narrow" strike inside Iran. It comes as Vladimir Putin calls for restraint during a call with Iran's president, amid fears of an escalation in hostilities

Re: Reporting from Israel
I bet Putin rang the Iranian guy up to ask for his money back, because those Iranian made drones, missiles etc which they supplied to Russia don't work
Re: Reporting from Israel
A nuclear and chemical weapons expert has told the BBC the selection of Isfahan, Iran's second city, as a potential target was "very significant".
Hamish De Bretton Gordon, a former commander of UK and Nato nuclear forces, notes the city has many military bases around it - with one of them apparently being the target overnight.
"[The reported attack] was fairly near to where we believe Iran is building nuclear weapons, so I expect it was a nod to them," he tells BBC News.
De Bretton Gordon goes on to make the case the purpose of the strikes was a "very much a demonstration of capability and perhaps intent".
Quote Message: Iran fires 300 plus miles at Israel, they virtually all get shot down. Israel fires one, perhaps two missiles, at an Iranian target - which appears to have got through and caused damage."

He adds that Israel "vastly overmatches" Iran in conventional military power, so Tehran would prefer to use proxies for attacks and avoid going "toe to toe with Israel, where it knows it would get a real hammering".
On the Iranians downplaying the significance of the attack, De Bretton Gordon says they don't want to acknowledge that any Israeli missiles have got through their "very antiquated" air defence systems and hit targets.
