Israel could be proactive, and detonate a nuclear bomb (or 5), in the middle of the drone swarm, over IRAN.
Israel.should.turn the whole shitty country in a pane of glass
Actually fairly clever propaganda move by Iran:
- Saves face by responding to Israel's attack
- Allows Israel plenty of time to mobilize and neutralize the threat
no harm, no foul
Update:
Latest says Iran just launched ballistic missiles, so my career as a strategic analyst was brief...

^^^and they expend many VERY expensive assets to shoot down a bunch of Radio Shack drones.
To early to tell but , if past teatrics are to be taken into account , not far fetched ,
Swiss embassy note from Iranians to Brandon :
''In 5 days we are launching a bunch of drones , that will be flying on x route for from x to y hours , we would have nothing against you shootin them down just make it look real with rhetoric to match , anyways you have 5 days to prepare the show . (~_^) ''
4 days later:
''We are still moving them around , just a heads up you can do couple of pressers and have MSM hyperventilate ᴓᴈᴓ ''
Today :
'' Everything is ready , so how are preparations for the show on your end are we still on for X hours ? ( ^_^)／ ''

Not really, as the swarm could also be just bait. Plus neither side whats to show they hand at taking out swarms, until the game is really on. Remember all on this rock are looking/waiting for the latest & greatest to be used, so they can counter when its their time.
Not posting this to discount what you are saying about jets. More to point out that the media has no idea where the pieces are being moved on the chessboard. But they will sure put out all the smallest bits of info to keep the short attention span types hyped up over the whole affair.
I... I just can't. Between the comments, the bald head that no longer seems to exist depending on the day, whether the ear lobes are attached or not- I just don't have the juice for this anymore. At this point I'm just waiting to see where the chips fall moving forward.

UK also showing off use of its $$$ direct energy weapons/laser against drones as well - "Dragon Fire" primarily for use in Ukriane but showing up in discussions recently. Won't download Daily Sun link...

A new British military laser could be used in Ukraine to shoot down Russian drones, the defence secretary has suggested.
The DragonFire weapon, which is expected to be ready for deployment by 2027 at the latest, could have "huge ramifications" for Kyiv's conflict against Russia, Grant Shapps said.
New reforms aimed at speeding up procurement mean the laser, which was originally set to be rolled out in 2032, will now be operational five years earlier than planned, according to the Ministry of Defence.

But Mr Shapps said he would look to see if the pace can be increased further "in order for Ukrainians perhaps to get their hands on it".
"I've come down to speed up the production of the DragonFire laser system because I think given that there's two big conflicts on, one sea-based, one in Europe, this could have huge ramifications to have a weapon capable particularly of taking down drones," Mr Shapps said at the Porton Down military research hub in Salisbury.
"And so what I want to do is speed up what would usually be a very lengthy development procurement process, possibly up to 10 years, based on my conversations this morning, to a much shorter timeframe to get it deployed, potentially on ships, incoming drones, and potentially on land.
"Again, incoming drones, but it doesn't take much imagination to see how that could be helpful in Ukraine for example."
Laser-directed energy weapons (LDEWs) use an intense beam of light to cut through their target.
The MoD hopes the DragonFire system will offer a low-cost alternative to missiles in shooting down attack drones and even mortars.
It has been developed by defence firms MBDA, Leonardo UK and QinetiQ and the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory.

The first casualty is always the truth. The media is mostly in it just for the bucks, albeit some are being used to spread disinformation.
Well it looks like it was indeed a kabuki theatre , Iran got to save face , Raytheon got years worth of product spent in couple of hours ,also interesting is cope reporting with 100% intercept rate for the Israeli win
- "You got a win. Take the win," Biden told Netanyahu, according to the official.
- The official said that when Biden told Netanyahu that the U.S. will not participate in any offensive operations against Iran and will not support such operations, Netanyahu said he understood.
- U.S. Secretary of State Lloyd Austin spoke on Saturday with his Israeli counterpart Yoav Gallant and asked that Israel notify the U.S. ahead of any response against Iran, a senior Israeli official said.

I doubt the izzys will set back and smile at a so called win, and do nothing. I remember long ago when they were told "Don't do it", yet we seen the smoke stack photos of before and after, with an izzy pilot waving the one finger salute.
Three vehicles with spec ops guys from several countries going to feed the children. One crew cab short bed, one four door passenger vehicle and another vehicle. Where's all the food that they were bringing to feed thousands of children? Ohh, wait. They weren't bringing food and water. These were the cooks and food prep crews?
Well no need to get to carried away , just about every news crew or any other international org crew working in a warzone goes around in armored cars and employs former soldiers for security of their foreign staff and local gunslingers for local staff, the higher the pay higher the grade the personnel involved.
And lets talk fact Brit that was former SBS was 57y old , one 47y old way ex Royal marines and the 33y old an Army grunt , they worked for Solace Global a Britsh contractor .
Relatively typical bunch of retired military working security in warzones.

WCK is just the 'charity' part in an empire of 5 star restaurants owned by Jose Andres who is a celebrity chef to US elites both Dem and Republican,dude is a chaiman on Brandon's council for sports ,fitness and nutrition and can waltz in an out of WH whenever he wants when he calls Brandon answers that is how well connected Jose is.
Guy was also a great supporter of Israel till they killed a bunch of his staff and friends.
Jose has clout in DC , guy single-handedly moved the dial on US-Israeli relations, before the event anything going agaist Israel was deemed antisemitic (kinda moronic given both tribes involved are Semitic) , post strike and Jose called up his influential friends, MSM started lots of reporting that would be absolute no go days prior and you are seeing real-time change in policy.
Is quite simple IDF RO are loose and command on the ground is even more lax, ultimate goal is to bring starvation, the succeeded in getting UNRWA out WCK was supposed pro the Israeli replacement is out as well.........

All good & great, but inquiring minds what to know if his burgers, and BBQ are above average?
It was all a kabuki , so its quite bizzare to read various twatter and tiktok keyboard comandos that think Israel totaly owned the Iranians.
Attack was designed to fail .US was given 72h to assemble a coalition of willing actors to play in this show and get all the assets into position. Even the stuff that came trough landed in the desert base and even there they made sure it did not hit anything.
Remember last time around when US assassinated their general , Iranian strike on US bases in Iraq was coordinated and they made 100% certain no one was killed , they were hitting with precision shit that was irrelevant everyone was forewarned to take cover hours in advance. At that time Swiss were the go between.
Kinda like this.

Wish they would just kick this pig, as bitch slapping each other is pointless. Go big or go home.
Biden set US up for a new war , by offering Israel Ironclad support no matter what and Bibi has been trying to get US into war with Iran for 20+ years.
If Israel strikes Iran , next round will not be per WWF/WWE rules and shit will get real fast in Israel, which will ultimately force US to intervene on Israel's behalf, which will also put US service men in bases in ME into a crosshair.

A big war by any means necessary. A win win really. Martial law and the depopulation initiative both being served.

The "wars rumors of wars" theatrics along with murderous human consequences are beyond comprehension. This is just as much a war on the human psyche worldwide as it is on any one nation.
Were the D Day or Iwo invasions ever pre announced in the news?
Serious question.

China: Iran’s 300 Missile and Drone Barrage on Israel ‘Restrained,’ Israel Should Not Respond
Saudi Official: Iran ‘Engineered a War in Gaza’ to Ruin Saudi-Israel Relationship
This is where words matter.
The jackasses creating the narrative can mis-speak or lie and the MSM is obliged to convey everything as fact and never question what was said.
The Israelis did not strike the Iranian consulate or embassy.
They performed a precision strike on an adjacent military building.
With the exception of one civilian, all casualties were Iranian and Syrian related military peeps.
One Hamas fighter was also killed in that strike.
No consulate or embassy staff were touched. No diplomates or their families were touched.
Iran screams Foul and nobody questions the details.
90% of U.S. citizens don't even know or care about this Israel and Iran skirmish.
Probably 99% of the ones that do know or care will believe whatever the new reports.
.
Narrative, changing with the truth again I see
Its interesting how some will believe XYZ as fact, and never research for opposing views/truth. Then again the US has always been good at slide of hand, and hand jobs, to the correct target/s.

Blind psychic Baba Vanga's chilling WW3 prediction
Baba Vanga, who reportedly predicted 9/11 and the Covid-19 pandemic and died in 1996, has made a chilling WW3 prediction as tensions between Iran and Israel escalate.
ok..
so..
On 1 April 2024, an Israeli airstrike destroyed the Iranian consulate annex building adjacent to the Iranian embassy in Damascus, Syria,[2][6] killing 16 people,
en.wikipedia.org
A consulate is the office of a consul. A type of diplomatic mission, it is usually subordinate to the state's main representation in the capital of that foreign country (host state), usually an embassy (or, only between two Commonwealth countries, a high commission). The term "consulate" may refer not only to the office of a consul, but also to the building occupied by the consul and the consul's staff. The consulate may share premises with the embassy itself.

Is the consulate building recognized as sovereign ground like an embassy?
