All of a sudden, everything has changed. Israeli troops have entered southern Lebanon, Iran has fired hundreds of missiles into the land of Israel, and it appears that all-out war has arrived. This war doesn’t seem to have a commonly accepted name yet, and so I am just going to start calling it “the Biggest Middle East War” until somebody out there comes up with something better. Is it just a coincidence that this war has suddenly exploded as the “Comet of the Century” is flying past our planet

I went through the details of Iran’s attack on Israel in an article that I posted earlier, and so I will not repeat all of that information here. Since I posted that article, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly stated that Iran has “made a big mistake” and that the Iranians “will pay” for what they have done…
“Iran made a big mistake tonight – and it will pay for it. The regime in Iran does not understand our determination to defend ourselves and our determination to retaliate against our enemies,” he said.
That sounds rather ominous.
So what should we expect?
Well, one Israeli news source is reporting that the IDF intends to conduct “powerful airstrikes throughout the Middle East”…
Following Iran’s missile barrage, which saw more than 180 rockets launched across Israel, the IDF vowed Tuesday night to carry out “powerful airstrikes throughout the Middle East.”
The military confirmed that the Air Force remains fully operational. Additionally, Israeli and U.S. defense systems effectively intercepted many of the incoming missiles, with the IDF reporting close cooperation in detection and interception efforts.
Senior Israeli officials vowed Tuesday evening that Jerusalem will not remain silent following Iran’s large-scale missile attack. A defense official promised a “severe response,” while another Israeli official warned, “What Iran has suffered so far is only a fraction of what it will face now.”
Of course the IDF has already been bombing pro-Iranian targets all over the Middle East.
Ultimately, I expect something even more dramatic.
Could Israel strike Iran itself?
That is certainly possible.
Naftali Bennett is even suggesting that this is a perfect time to “destroy Iran’s nuclear program”…
With emphasis added, former prime minister Naftali Bennett calls for Israel to act “now” against Iran’s nuclear program, saying the Islamic Republic “made a terrible mistake” with its major missile attack this evening.
“Israel has now its greatest opportunity in 50 years, to change the face of the Middle East,” Bennett writes in an English-language post on X. “We must act *now* to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, its central energy facilities, and to fatally cripple this terrorist regime.”
Such an attack would definitely trigger an unstoppable chain of events.
Iran has warned that there will be a “crushing attack” if Israel responds, and the Iranians also seem to be threatening the United States…
Iran’s armed forces warn against any direct military intervention in support of Israel in response to Iran’s missile attack.
“In the event of direct intervention by countries supporting the regime [Israel]… their centers and interests in the region will also face a powerful attack by the armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the armed forces says in a statement quoted by Fars news agency.
The Biden administration promised Iran that there would be “severe consequences” if the Iranians launched missiles at Israel.
