This isn’t 1980’s Revolutionary Iran anymore.
The guys who planned Beruit Barracks...single largest Marine loss of life since Iwo Jima. They had “gheyrat”.
Now it’s all factions who are chasing their own self interest and Rahbar playing babysitter keeping them from devouring each other.
Since 2010:
- Tehrani Moghaddam assassinated (according to @Shawnee)
- Allahdadi assassinated
- Solemani assassinated
- Fakhrizadeh assassinated
- Hundreds of strikes in Syria leading to loss of materials/personnel
How many legitimate Israeli officials or soldiers were killed in response?
Don’t come out and say “time and place of our choosing”. Just say “we don’t have gheyrat anymore and choose not to answer violence with violence”.
Also how come nobody has killed that clown General Salami? I cannot stand him. Probably because he hurts IRGC more than helps them at this point.
