Iran’s IRGC commander targeted by a drone near Iraqi-Syrian border

Ehm no. There will be no unconventional response to conventional retaliation.

Of course there could be.

The very point of nukes for countries like Israel and Pakistan is that an overwhelming conventional attack could justify the use of nuclear weapons.

I normally don't reply to petulant children, but just as quick lesson in rational thinking. Iran has faced the entire might of Zionists and NATO plus Arab puppet regimes and even Russia which is allied to the Zionists, entirely on it own for over 40 years now and remains standing. Statecraft is not a children's game. Iran has to weigh its options very carefully as the Zionist agenda is to goad the racist Islamophobic Americans and the west into a war for them. Iran can fire some missiles and start a war for sure, but that is exactly what the Zionists want. Persians are smart and calculating people who invented both Chess and Polo, so know to deal with our enemies. The Zionists will be hit when it suits Iran and not play to the Zionist agenda.

There are a number of smug, immature warmongerers on this forum who essentially want to advance the US-led imperialist agenda.

They don't get what Iran has had to deal with --- especially in the form of a combined front of the world's most powerful nation, the only nuclear power/most technically advanced fighting force in the Middle East and the sold-out ultra-wealthy Gulf states. This unholy trinity between the US, Israel and these puppet monarchies --- the money, intelligence infrastructure, military goods, economic oppression tools (sanctions, etc) --- have exerted ENORMOUS pressure on Iran.

Let's not forget the truly exceptional (with no precedent in history) US protection of/support to Israel (enormous military/civil aid, complete blind eye to any and all war crimes, de-facto approval of illegal occupations/settlements, etc.) If Iran had this sort of support, the resulting mil-intel beast would have devoured Israel and freed Palestine.

I believe one MUST applaud the Iranian spirit of resistance in these very trying and isolating times. Any other country --- especially Pakistan and India --- would have fared much worse.

Thank you for your mature and sensible post. Iran has been a single target of the entire west, Zionists, Russia and every third grade Arab puppet regime for 40 years non-stop. Iran was invaded by US and NATO supported Saddam, the Arab puppets bankrolled the war that cost Iranians almost a million lives. Since then Iran has faced terrorism, assassinations, bombings, sanctions, threats and overt attacks and still managed to stand tall. Not a single country has come to Iran's aid ever, with the exception of Hezbollah. Iran's only crime is that it stands up for Palestinian rights, supports liberation movements and does not tow the Zionist and American line. So it has become their prime target.

Nonsense. Conventional attack will always be replied with conventional attack no matter the scale. Nuclear weapons are for MAD when things are at point of no return i.e. other country launching the first nuke.

We all know that was a mere face saving. No american was killed versus Iranian top general taken out.

The strikes, if no Americans were warned beforehand, could have resulted in massive US casualties. Just take a look at satellite photo assessments.

I will urge you to look deeper into history and not buy anti-Pak BS from Indian sources.

Like Iran, Pakistan defended itself against a much larger aggressor (India) --- even today, not an inch of territory of Pakistan "proper" (not the thousands of KM away separate entity of current-day Bangladesh) has been lost. They don't attack despite wanting to and claiming to have reason to. Nuclear weapons maintain peace. Iran would be wise to ensure its secret weapons program stays on track.

Iran could justifiably go ballistic on Israel and demolish Tel Aviv. Iran is being pushed by Israel and its proxies into a war by criminal actions. Israeli confidence is at the Zenith and it's time to bring them down to earth.

These Iranian fanboys from Pakistan are the funniest. As if a drone strike in a war torn country against a terrorist that shouldn't even be there, justifies demolishing Tel-Aviv with ballistic missiles

This is why the rogue terror regime in Iran must never have nukes, because there are plenty of Islamic nutters in that regime like you who think levelling a city and killing a million people is the appropriate response to having your terrorist liquidated.

They are dying like flies and no response

They could respond by getting out of other people's countries and retreat back to Iran where they belong.

That way no more flies need to be liqudated.

Go thank to your god that Iranian supreme leader is not as reckless as your little illegal state. Or many Israelis would have died in Iranian missile fire.
