Israeli embassies around the world have been put on high alert as Israel is bracing for potential retaliation for bombing Iran’s consulate building next to its embassy in Damascus, Syria.
Sources told The Jerusalem Post that some Israeli ambassadors had been warned not to attend public events due to concerns about their safety. The Israeli Foreign Ministry denied earlier reports that said Israel was evacuating many of its embassies around the world.
The Israeli attack on Iran’s consulate marked a huge escalation in Israel’s targeting of Iranians and killed seven members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), including a senior Quds force commander and another general.
Israel frequently kills Iranians in Syria or carries out covert attacks inside Iran, including assassinations, drone attacks, and sabotage at nuclear sites. Iran’s responses to Israeli attacks are usually very restrained, if they respond at all. But the brazen attack on an Iranian diplomatic facility could provoke something more significant.
Reuters cited an unnamed Iranian official who said Tehran would have to give a serious response but also said it would still be limited and aimed at deterrence.
A major response or direct attack on Israeli territory could be exactly what Israel wants since it appears to be trying to provoke a major regional war to get the US to intervene directly. Iran has been clear that it does not want war with the US or to be involved in any other major conflict.
Iran’s potential retaliation won’t happen during this high alert periods…!
They will probably wait until the dust settles and Israel gets complacent.
Or, they wait and surprise Israel from the the South Lebanon territory…!
Yeah, then Israel will strike Iran.
Iran accomplishes nothing. Congratulations.
Nor will Israel’s counter.
Poor Israelis. “Israel is bracing for potential retaliation.” Sounds like a fantastic movie for Steven Spielberg. My tears are already flowing. I can’t even read the article because my tears caused a short in my laptop. My A$$ caught fire. But no worries. I used water from my toilet to put out the fire. Thank God, I didn’t need to call Wars or Spy to help me. I have a feeling they wouldn’t have.
Israel: the biggest promoter of antisemitism across the globe.
I’m not kidding when I tell you that Dis—Qus had a banner/pop up that said: Support Israel! But that’s not funny. What’s funny is asking you how much money should I send them?
Did you put in negative digits, including the middle one?
do you even have any money?
i have a little can which holds my $4.00 of coins.
every once a week i go to the liquor store and i get 1 pint of vodka.
then i sit here and make some comments because suddenly i am a genius.
I don’t know if you noticed yet.
Compared to me, you are a genius!
Most of my money is invested in my teeth. They are made out of lead. I was told lead is the new gold. So I’m waiting for the value to come up. But my jaw is getting heavier the older I get.
Post 7th, yea.
Yes, anti-Israelism is growing fast around the globe which would be reported by western media as anti-Semitism…!
Ah c’mon. You know I’d be there bro. I live in Michigan though so Spy will have to battle the blaze until I got there.
LOLOL
Wars would pee on you at least. (To put out fire.)
The pro dictator / anti American team expressing their hatred s usual.
LOLOL. I didn’t think of that! Are you available to do my taxes?
Lmao
I abhor violence but I really hope one of Israel’s embassies is attacked just to see the hypocritical reaction.
“I abhor violence” LOL. Then you hope for a terrorists attack on an embassy. And when Israel goes after whoever committed the attack you will be crying that Israel’s response is unfair.
Resistance is not Terror
Genocide is not Self-Defense
Wow, you must be a Ukrainian supporter.
Good to hear.
The Putin lovers here need to take note.
It’s just irksome how we value lives equally, but Israel doesn’t.
It’s like a caste system.
That would be a response to the terrorist attack on Iran’s consulate, which would be legitimate. This is like you claiming Israel had a right to attack Hamas because Hamas attacked Israel. The only difference is I don’t condone anyone doing a genocidal attack as an appropriate response to being attacked. And, of course, the fact that Gaza was an outdoor prison meaning any attack on the occupiers’ military installations was also legitimate. Nothing about Israel’s attack on the Iranian consulate in Syria was legitimate. Just like their ongoing genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza.
That’s the attitude of anti Israel / West and pro dictators.
Iran has the right to defend themselves, Israel should expect some reply after attacking their embassy staff.
Do we need any embassies in the world? It seems outdated. Just pick up the phone.
Yes, they serve a purpose.
Google it. You may learn something new today.
Just close them. Bring everyone home.
hey Iran is going to blow up the whole world!
exclamation marks!!
they have been promising to destroy the whole world for a good 55 years now.
what
This is pretty stupid logic if Israel thinks Iran will retaliate one of their embassies after their attack.
Come on ANAL Yzer.
Tell us how it is.
🤣
