  1. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office denies reports that Israel warned Iran through third parties not to respond to the airstrikes this morning and that it gave a general indication of what it would and wouldn’t target.

    The report in the Walla news site is “false and absurd,” says the PMO.

    “Israel did not notify Iran before the attack — not about the timing, not about the targets, and not about the scale of the attacks”

    Times of Israel

  2. Atcleast Israel isn’t totally insane wanting to start a multi front war.

    Gotta feeling iran is gonna do one more light show and target empty spaces to save face

  3. Both sides aimed for minimum damage in this little tit for tat – neither seems interested in an all out escalation. Oh well maybe we’ll get a proper show next time.

  4. People over here called the attack last night as “minimal” doesn’t really understand what happened last night.
    Israel hit all of Iran’s strategic defense systems along with many military facilities which are crucial to the production of their ballistic missiles.
    Iran knows they’re totally exposed because Israel just proved that they can reach any point in Iran, and that’s quite a huge achievement since Iran can’t do the same, and their only card is basically trying to launch more rockets (which can get intercepted or destroyed in an preemptive attack).
    So while I understand why some people think that Iran needs to “save face”, if they do so, they will just sign their own death certificate because they’re not even in the same league/sport as Israel and their allies.

  5. Getting knowledge ahead of the attack and still failing to defend against it..

    Anyways it really looks like both sides dont want to escalate it but both also want to avoid embarrassment by not returning fire to the other side.

    I hope the case of not wanting to escalate is true

  6. It would be perfectly reasonable to avoid pain points and give them outs to avoid escalation. I don’t think it’s the case, they avoided oil and nuclear targets as probable request from the west, and this if the best they could do, and it should be enough.
