Confirmed Israel attacked Iran

💠Israeli Defense Minister, Israel Katz, announced that the Israeli government has carried out a preemptive strike against Iran “to eliminate threats against the State of Israel.”

Katz declared a special state of emergency across the country and warned that missile and drone attacks against Israel and its civilian population are expected soon.

Instructions from the Home Front Command must be followed, and people should remain in protected locations.

    As the resident Syrian hater of Rojava, I have an interesting bit of news to share this time.

    🇹🇷🇮🇶❌🇺🇸— Kurdish faction called Hizbullah al-Thuri claims to attack the Erbil airport and specifically the American military base with a suicide bomber. And the statement opens with the words “We are the sons of Salahuddin”.

    Hopefully, even if this is small, it represents the potential for a shift in the Kurdush movement into an actual anti-imperialist force.

    Why are the US’s/Israeli military constantly doing decapitation strikes now? Maybe its survivorship bias (literally) or I’m just misinformed, but I feel like even 10-20 years ago the leader would be the last thing to go, rather than the first (or in some case, only. As in the kidnapping of Maduro)

      That’s basically what they did on the 12 Day War, but perhaps with more though put into it considering they had months to prepare an even better plan. And if that’s the case we can expect the missile damage and quality of the attacks to increase more and more.

      There are differences due to full participation of the empire from the start, and Iran will likely have more losses, but things are likelly to escalate. Specially if Iran can break the social cohesion behind one of the puppets in the region, like Bahrain, and revolution begin to spread.

      From tweet:

      Iran firing at Israel nonstop (millions have spent the last 24 hours mostly in shelters, and the economy will be at a complete standstill for the foreseeable future), and is applying a clear tactic of saturating Israeli air defences and triggering an interceptor crises. If I’m reading them right, their initial response is designed to remove the immediate threat from US assets in the region, which they have been doing brilliantly, and, simultaneously, exhausting Israeli and Western air defences, which will compel the US and Israel to ask for a ceasefire.

      And there’s the global economy front with the stoppage of West Asia gas and oil flow.

      But this is only the opening phase, and, as always with Iran, great methodicity is carefully applied. No missile is fired spontaneously. Every action is taken for a desired outcome, as part of a rigorously laid out plan.

      They are picking apart Israel’s infrastructure and economy. In 10 days, the country will begin to crack. Maybe even sooner.

      We are not seeing Iran’s achievements, but they are there. They have prepared for this, and the assassination of Khamenei makes the choices they face absolutely clear. They will not stop.

    Speculation shared in an Iranian channel

    spoiler

    TROUBLE INSIDE ISRAEL

    According to reports coming from inside Israel — particularly from Tel Aviv and Haifa — the situation is pointing toward organized civil disobedience and a breakdown of military discipline.

    When more than 200 buildings are reduced to rubble and the Iron Dome defense system is perceived to have completely failed, it is natural for the public to lose trust in the state. Based on the current situation, the internal unrest appears to have several key aspects:

    1. Clash Between the Military and Police

    Scent of Rebellion: Israeli media and social media reports suggest that several reservists have refused to report for duty. Their stance is that if the leadership (Netanyahu and the President) is absent, why should they risk their lives?

    Police Violence: Clashes have occurred between civilians and police in the streets of Tel Aviv. People are protesting the lack of facilities in bunkers and the government’s “silence.”

    1. Internal Displacement Crisis

    From North to Center: Due to Hezbollah’s attacks, hundreds of thousands of Israelis had already relocated from northern areas. Now, following the destruction of 200 buildings in Tel Aviv, even the previously considered “safe” central regions are witnessing a wave of internal displacement, overwhelming local administration systems.

    1. “Psychological Warfare” in Bunkers

    The “psychological crisis” mentioned in Statement No. 8 by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is reportedly becoming visible on the ground. Underground bunkers in Israel are overcrowded, with reports of severe shortages of food and medicine. Tensions are rising, with incidents of people attacking one another, and the military is facing serious challenges in controlling the situation.

    1. Political Vacuum and the Rise of “Militias”

    In Netanyahu’s absence, extremist groups within Israel have reportedly begun arming themselves. These groups are making decisions independently of the government, potentially pushing the country toward internal civil war.

    Summary:

    Israel is currently fighting on two fronts — externally against Iran and its allies, and internally against a collapsing domestic structure. The withdrawal or distancing of France and other allies has reportedly dealt a final blow to Israeli public confidence.

    Disclaimer: For my own mental health, I haven’t read zionist media in hebrew but several claims like the refusal of people into serving the IDF are confirmed(as far as I checked in 2025 example -> https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/knesset-advances-bill-to-demote-officers-who-encourage-refusal-to-enlist-in-idf/)

    If this is true, look like Iran strategy is correct again. Wear the population down. Keep them on edge. That’s why they launch 10 times a day with only 1-2 missiles. They will have to keep coming back and forth from shelter and workplace. And lot of stressful on population.

    Let me know your thoughts. Also, if you have information that disproves this speculation, please share it in a comment.

      Oh. Wait, so, what they wanted for Iran is actually unraveling in Israel?? Well, they shouldn’t be too upset, clearly they like this sort of chaos for others, so they should welcome it at the home front as well!

      Seriously, though, I don’t know if there are any Marxist movements in that hellhole (probably not, since the fascism is so rampant that they probably have executed any dissenters), but the conditions would be ripening for revolution if they weren’t so incredibly propagandized by their colonialist dogma and program.

        The only legitimate communists in “Israel” are the communist faction of the Palestinian resistance. Don’t count on Isrealis to have anything more than posers and pretenders.

      And yet Iran isn’t trying to convince US soldiers to “sabotage and defect.” If we want to “defend Iran’s sovereignty,” we could learn from their violent methods…

    🇧🇭🇺🇸🇮🇷| Targeted assassination of American officers from the US Navy 5th fleet HQ inside a building (likely hotel) in Bahrain.

    4 days ago, the WP had reported that Iran is targeting Pentagon personnel in hotels.

    I geolocated it and it’s the Fontana Infinity rental appartments in Manama Bahrain.

    Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE are thinking about possibly pulling away (force majeure) from US investments after heavy damages from Iranian attacks.

      Liberal Iranians who screech about “bringing democracy to Iran” have no ground to stand on. The supposed democracy of the United States of America has just voted for a war that the vast majority of the American people are opposed to.

      Mar 1, 2026 3:52 PM RNZ Live Iran has threatened the “heaviest offensive” in its history, following the death of its supreme leader

      Iran’s elite revolutionary guards have said the most ferocious offensive operation in the Islamic Republic’s history will begin any moment now, in a threat directed at Israel and the United States.

      Iran’s state functions have been quick to vow retaliation, following confirmation the country’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in the US and Israeli strikes.

      “The heaviest offensive operations in the history of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran will begin shortly toward the occupied lands and bases of the American terrorists,” the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) warned a short time ago.

      The Iranian government said in a statement that “this great crime will never remain unanswered and will turn a new page in the history of the Islamic world.”

      Meanwhile, the country’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) said the joint US-Israeli attacks on Iran would “begin a massive uprising in fighting the world’s oppressors.”

      The SNSC, a powerful body that coordinates Iran’s national defence and security strategies, said Iran and its allies will only be “more resilient and determined.”

      Grab a coffee but don’t shower just yet, I heard the big missiles are coming. Iran is apparently about to launch something big, at least according to Radio New Zealand.
