Israel currently appears to be in a position of weakness, and they may seek to correct this image with a harsh and uncompromising response.
Considering Israel’s policy of responding to attacks with disproportionate force, the recent ballistic missile strikes launched by Iran toward Israel have, so far, remained unanswered. This raises the possibility of a severe retaliation, potentially including a large-scale and prolonged air campaign—or, in a worst-case scenario, even a nuclear response. I sincerely hope this assessment proves to be wrong.
Israel, without US, have actually very limited options against Iran.In the 12 day june war, Israel was able to inflict damage to Iranian early warning and SAM networks yes using highly unique warfare methods that IRGC was not really expecting - the pager style warfare, partially suppressing Iranian counter fires and that's it.

On the other hand, US in the present conflict has systematically paralyzed the iranian state.
Its ballistic missile production industry is gone, steel industry gone, heavy damage to Petrochemical infrastructure, nuclear facilities hit badly, established ruling elite gone, Iran isolated in the region like never before, its proxies already cut in size, and its top academic infrastructure hit badly.

Iran as a civilization still stands because its one and only economic backbone - the oil industry is still spared.
Once Civilian and Energy Infrastructure is gone, it will be the systematic decapitation of Iranian civilization back to stone age and America would not allow it to recover as long as it's a Superpower.

Iranian leadership chose a wrong enemy.

And they live at the mercy of US and Israel. When the marionetter King is dead or toppled. Israel will occupy and expand their territory.

Remember his face when he was at the white house

Israel violated the cease fire on Lebanon

And trump violated the cease fire on enrichment:

trump: There will be no enrichment of uranium in Iran​



With the violations of the 10 point peace plan proposed by Iran, Iran should close the straits for 3 months cease fire or no cease fire, this would drive the oil markets crazy and trump crazier. After three months if there is a peace deal to agree to the 10 point peace plan or a ceasefire to the 10 point peace plan and it is again violated, then 3 more months of Hormuz closed.

trump is trying to manipulate the markets.

If trump wants Hormuz open sooner, then agree to the peace plan and when the US bases close in the region and the rest of the peace plan is agreed to and complied with including Iran allies in Lebanon, the war in Lebanon, then Hormuz opens immediately, not in 3 months.

One thing this President is not capable of predictibility. The GCC arabs promised to invest several $Trillion in the US, and whole set of projects on top of it with his family to accrue benefits . In all respects, i thought this was inducement that Trump and family will capitalize on and not cause any further violence. That plan really fell apart, even to Trump's own detriment for his sons to line up their pockets.

That unpredictibility also applies here to Isreal not knowing how Trump will act. While they pulled him into the conflict, given after all this expenditure of munitions, Pentagon now says only 50% of launchers destroyed, then Trump can go any direction. Its probably an usual place for Israel to be to not count on US next set of actions. Its an unfamiliar area for them

A few pondering points. There is no article or even theories I have surfaced, so I ask here to see what people's ideas are.

There were at least 150+ USAF fighter bombers that need regional air bases. They could not all be operating from Mawaffiq Saiti in Jordan. There must be some dispersion to these to other GCC countries.

1. Were the GCC countries lying when they said they would not allow overflights by US attack aircraft?
2. Was this the reason that each country was being targeted. Not only was there airspace not being used, but also some of their installations. At least in initial stages before the Iranian response
3. Saudi Arabia obviously lied as it had tankers and AWACS: if thats the case, why didn't Iran make it known that these bases were being used?
4. There is NO WAY that GCC was telling the truth in the first few days of the war that it would not allow its airspace. Not using its airspace would mean that attacking aircraft would have a very narrow corridor to come from, making their entry into Iran known across a few locations.
Even aircraft flying from the Abraham Lincoln would have to enter GCC airspace to maintian a level of surprise over Iran (and unpredictable trajectory) for their ingress and egress
5. Why did Iran not make a bigger PR awareness out of it?
6. And given that Iran's attacks penetrated every major installation in GCC countries, then why did they not attack Israeli air bases? Those Israeli air bases would not have more protection than what a THAAD woudl provide .

The only Iran claim of attacking Israeli air installations is from the Oct 24 war I think

I agree but that does not answer why it has not been the subject of sustained attacks by Iran. It would seem at least as important for Iran to attack that as it was to go after Prince Sultan.

Q1: Yes, In fact, the GCC Airzone is belong to US/Isreal(Under CENTCOM control).
Q2: Yes.
Q3: I think the US military base in GCC is not controled by those GCC none care what they say, including Iran.
Q5: The global media is not owned by Iran, there is such Iran PR in Chinese media, but of course it is impossible to find it in english media.
Q6: Iran is keeping attack Israeli air bases and there were huge damaged, that also the reason US banned satellite photo company for their middle east photo sell.

The mainstream media and news are still under western control, and as long as people do not vary the source of their information they'll still be painted by the opinion (Selective news) of the governments of the country they are located in.

The only way to try to counter this is by truly having independent and true journalism. Unbiased. But we see what happens to that kind of journalists in Gaza.

Really sad, but True journalists are what our world lacks, and they are our unsung Heroes.

Why, of why does this minister of trade open his mouth about this. He should keep it shut and deflect to trade talks.

Let the elephant in the room be, and let some other country remind Trump of what the f.... NATO is about.

Every human has his own biases influenced by patriotism/religion/ethnicity/economic interests,etc. so media houses pushing their own narratives is understandable.

11000+ munitions fired in first 16 days of war costing 26 Billion US Dollar to US/Isr/Gulfies.

If we count the combat losses + munitions fired + assets maintenance and combat/transport sorties - the 40 days war has easily costed around 100 Billion US Dollar to US and its allies.

And we are not taking into account the economic damage Iran did to global economy by blocking SoH.

Could you post links
Iranian Embassy in China
The official blog of Iranian Embassy in China's Weibo platform
There also some commentators invited by Iran goverment had traveled to Iran in the past, they make PR for Iran.

US and Isreal do the same things in China, they can paid more. Some media outlets have long praised Jewish countries and denigrated Islamic countries, and the public has become accustomed to this PR and regards it as background noise.
