Timed perfectly for when it was clear Iran had failed.
And not before then.

No. I think saving Jewish lives was a huge mistake.

The Saudis say it:

Saudi official says Iran engineered war in Gaza to ruin normalization with Israel

The National Lottery gave this woman's organisation £500k. Prince Harry, @aoc and all the usual idiot actors publicly endorsed Mermaids.

I see that the asajews have found some asanacademics 🤦🏼‍♂️

European Jews:
Out of interest, how much sleep last night?

Nailed.

The regional alliance and support that Israel received last night is a small taste of what is possible here if we move seriously towards ending the occupation and allowing Palestinians to have freedom and dignity. Israel's security will only be secured for real when Palestinians…

Still.
It failed and now the pivot is to “we didn’t really mean it anyway.”
Fortunately, your tweet is here to remind us that it failed.

I deliberately tried to kill you badly, with my ballistic missiles, because I didn’t really want to kill you.
But I had to try because my oppressive, hated, regime is under pressure.
You wouldn’t know the people who put me under pressure – they go to a different school.

I’m not yet ready to ask whether my pointless, virtue signalling support for an arms embargo has encouraged the maniacs.

Iran has always favoured a ceasefire now - as have its western supporters.
Just not a ceasefire it’s required to observe.
That position has been consistent since 7.10. As has the reaction of its western supporters.
The acceptability of such views is something we must each decide

The Ben-Gurion Airport is now open. Likely a sign that no further launches or escalation are expected in the near future. Another sign the Iranian attack has failed.

TL:DR Iran’s attack failed because the people I dislike stopped it.
They don’t even admit they were wrong!
I am the victim of this.

I’d normally advise those wishing to prevent aggression from an irresponsible maniac to contact the police.
Not to give into their every demand.
But, thankfully, we did prevent any appalling consequences by the broadest military action across the region for years.
Some sabres….

I have sympathy with the view.
But, propounded by a man who couldn’t show restraint in the face of a mobile telephone, it lacks gravitas.

If your bully said to you, “I didn’t really mean to hit you & hurt you; I’m just showing you I could if I wanted”, your response would be “bollocks”.
If your response to Iran is any different you’re either overthinking it, or shilling for the regime there.

The Iranian attack was an unprecedented challenge to Israel but its meager results could be a strategic opportunity. If only Israel had a government capable of grasping that opportunity. My ⁦Haaretz.com⁩ analysis haaretz.com/israel-news/20…
