Israel’s military has created a new intelligence unit to prepare for war with Iran amid simmering tensions between the two nations, Ynet reported on Sunday.
Israel has been conducting a covert war against Iran for some time, but in recent years, Israeli officials have been speaking more openly about the fact that they’re preparing for an overt military conflict with the Islamic Republic.
The Ynet report said the intelligence branch of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) created the new unit to specifically prepare for a fight with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
The head of research for the new intelligence unit, known as Branch 54, told Ynet that the preparations for a conflict with Iran are much different than the wars Israel has waged in Lebanon and Gaza. “This is a significant mindset change that the IDF is required to make. It is not similar to a war against Hezbollah or an operation in Gaza against Hamas or Islamic Jihad,” said the officer, who went by the name Lt. Col. T.
“We are responsible for providing the military with the knowledge infrastructure regarding Iranian military capabilities and strategic systems under their control. We are engaged in researching the elements of control in Iran from the senior level down to the operators at the frontlines,” T added.
Ynet also spoke with an officer who is compiling a list of targets the IDF could strike inside Iran, who went by Lt. Col. Y. “Every day we gather more targets and objectives at a satisfying pace and learn how to strike them effectively. We have already doubled the target bank in Iran, regardless of nuclear facilities. It is very different from interwar operations. An overt military confrontation will be an entirely different story,” Y said.
The news of Israel’s new preparations for war with Iran comes amid reports that the US and Iran have been engaged in new negotiations related to Iran’s civilian nuclear program, although both sides have dismissed the idea that an agreement is close. In light of these reports, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Secretary of State Antony Blinken that no deal between the US and Iran would prevent Israel from attacking the Islamic Republic.
NUCLEAR WAR?…
Given Iran now has hypersonic missiles and Israel doesn’t, launching war against them is insanity. The only solution is diplomacy.
Ah… Scipio…I don’t believe that Israhell is capable of diplomacy. They’re preparing to initiate their “Samson Option”, so someone had better blow Tel Aviv off the map first.
google = “announcement of the latest missile in Iran’s fast expanding arsenal of weapons – one that Iran’s military says can travel up to 15 times the speed of sound, = 11,416 mph. The missile is called Fattah, apparently named after one of the 99 names of God in Islam meaning “victory giver.””
i am wondering why Islam has 99 different names for God
God has many good names is written somewhere in the Qur’an.
yes, 99 names
Well Spy, there is probably a Merciful God, a Vengeful God, etc., but I’d be hard-pressed to come up with 99 names.
But that’s their business.
Each name reflects a different aspect or characteristic of Allah. For example, Ar-Ra’uf means “the kind, the pitying,” while al-Hakam means “the judge.”
yes. and barid-alqalb means “the cold-hearted”
By some counts there are more than 20 different names for God mentioned in the Bible. And each of these names has great significance.https://www.bibleinfo.com/en/questions/names-of-god
ironic
Quite the contrary-a first strike is even more imperative.
Tel Aviv is blowing smoke – they don’t dare go at Iran on their own – they want their big cousin, USA, to do the heavy lifting and dying.
If Israel attacks Iran, that would push Iran to rebuild its nuclear program with international legitimacy.
Since 2010, Israel has allegedly conducted at least two dozen operations – including assassinations, drone strikes and cyberattacks – on Iran.
No kidding…!
“Israel has been conducting a covert war against Iran for some time”
Yeah, let’s just say the covertness isn’t of the best quality.
Israel’s military has created a new intelligence unit to prepare for war with Iran
really, they don’t have a dozen such units already?
Correction: Israel’s military has created a new intelligence unit to prepare the USA for war with Iran. Just like with 9/11, there will be some horrible false-flag event that will force us into another forever war that this time will be the end of the USA as we know it and the beginning of God only knows what.
I don’t think it will work for them. Israel better realize she’s blown through all her moral capital and there’s very few would regret her destruction. Shireen abu Akleh, Rachel Corrie, the 37 dead of the US Liberty, and how many millions of Palestinians cry out for it.
While we’re at it, Robert, the Amerikkkan Zionazi evangelicals have GOT TO GO.
Deport ‘em, or worse.
Chris Hedges claims that there are 50 million of them, 80% of whom voted for Trump in 2020.
We could do a swap with Mexico. Or we could make a wall made of evangelicals. Then, I’d know where to visit some of my relatives.
😂
Mine too!
Never underestimate the ability of the US public to be bamboozled.
How many million Palestinians?
as of 2 years ago there were approx 4.9 million living Palestinians
Over 150 have been killed this year, Spy, including over 30 children, most recently a two-year-old boy.
The MSM sheds bitter tears over the recent death of a Ukrainian child of the same age, but completely ignored the shooting of Mohammad Tamimi, whose crime was riding in a car with his family.
as of 2 years ago there were approx 4.9 million living Palestinians
One less, the IDF just shot a two year old terrorist.
that sounds like some kind of conspiracy theory.
anyway, we don’t really need that pesky old Hoover Dam anymore ….
By way of deception thou shalt do war is not a conspiracy theory.
Well said, well said TC.
The US built an army of rubber tanks and created rumors that that it would attack Calais during WW2. Was that somehow wrong?. Good for the goose,good for the gander.
How was what happened 80 years ago in the UK even remotely like a false-flag attack on the USA?
Deception is a normal part of warfare.So now you are a bit wiser. The false flag attack was done by Our own oil men political leaders,in conjunction with SA.
Since China and Russia aren’t taking the bait, it would be in Wash. interest if Israel attacked Iran, which would bring in both Russia and China since they are all in the same neighborhood. That may be the last attempt of the ghouls in Wash. to start WWIII. Of course it’s with Bibi’s good looks and America’s blood and tax money. After the gut wrenching display at the White House yesterday, anything can happen. Maybe it’s time for “igne natura renavatur integra” to purify humanity? The old alchemists are right about that maxim popping up when it gets too crazy to carry on any more.
I wonder why Iran is consistently referred to as the Islamic Republic, why IsraHell is not called by its rightful name: the Zionist Regime.
Go for it, IsraHell. Amerikkkan opinion of you is changing on a daily basis so don’t expect much help from inflation-weary Amerikkkans. This will be your well-deserved downfall. My biggest concern is that the Palestinian population will be affected.
It would be a suicidal mission…!
I hope so, Net, I hope so!
Its official name is the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Would that make Israel’s proper name the Zionazi Republic from Hell? 😁
Israel says lots, LOL.
