The Islamic Republic of Iran launched some 181 nuclear missiles at the state of Israel on October 1. Most were shot down, those that were n’t fell largely in uninhabited areas. The Persian assault, which was the second one in six months, was prevented by Israel’s and her allies ‘ scientific and brains superiority. As of this writing, the earth waits for Israel’s promised answer.

The reason for Iran’s assault is evident: Israel is now thoroughly destroying Iran’s despair intermediaries in the region. Since Hamas ‘ brutal mass terror assault of Oct. 7, 2023, Israel has devastated the terrorist group: some 23 of its 24 battalions have been destroyed, its leadership caste has been wiped out, from political leader Ismail Haniyeh ( assassinated with pinpoint accuracy in Tehran ) to military leader Mohammed Deif (killed in a targeted airstrike ) to the missing Yahya Sinwar, Oct. 7 mastermind. Hamas had used the border between Gaza and Egypt as a supplies street before Israel established working military command over almost all of the Gaza Strip. Has been reduced to fighting Army forces in a low-level insurgency.
However, after nearly a month of taking thousands of inbound rockets in its northern from the Iranian-backed Palestinian despair group Hezbollah, Israel suddenly responded with enormous force and competence. First, in a feat of espionage that beggars the imagination, Israel instantly exploded the beepers of Hezbollah’s terrorists, wounding or killing thousands of them and wrecking Hezbollah’s methods of communication, therefore, when Hezbollah attempted to reestablish communications via walkie-talkies, Israel blew those up as well, after that, Israel proceeded to unleash the Israeli Air Force on targets across southern Lebanon, the Bekaa Valley and Beirut, wiping out the vast majority of Hezbollah’s long-range munitions, suddenly, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke at the completely horrible United Nations and warned that Israel had no longer be crossed, the IAF dropped a series of bunker busters on the head of Hezbollah leader Hasan Nasrallah, killing him and more of!
 , his top lieutenants. Hezbollah was unable to launch rockets into empty areas of Israel’s north as a response.

Even the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen, who have been firing cruise missiles at Israel, have felt Israel’s wrath: Israel has issued multiple direct strikes at Houthi-controlled ports in a country some 1, 800 kilometers away.
Iran’s proxies are on the ropes. The Iranian regime’s forward operating arm has been amputated, as a result. And that’s what necessitated Iran’s attempts to strike Israel directly.
This was a major miscalculation.
Israel in the post-Oct. 7 era is not the Israel of before. It is a state that wo n’t put its future on the line that its allies will behave with due care. Such bets are no longer available to it. And so Israel has set about a mission the West has not pursued in decades: victory. Israel will not back down and make concessions that only serve to avert the unavoidable, allowing her enemies to arm up. Israel has and will continue to strike at its allies.
And it is working.
The Abraham Accords, negotiated by President Donald Trump’s team, have remained durable. The Sunni Gulf states will act accordingly and will continue to support Israel as the region’s most powerful military and economic force. Iran has been forced into a defensive crouch, yelling ineffectively at Israel and America while boasting about its larger-scale ambitions.
But, in an utter inversion of Iran’s ambitions since Oct. 7, Israel has grown stronger. Iran has grown far , weaker. The Iranian regime is unpopular, its military has shown itself to be ineffective in everything but quashing its own citizens and facilitating the deaths of civilians in Iraq and Syria, and its terror proxies have fumbled around and discovered. Additionally, the area will benefit more from it.

All of which should remind the West of a simple principle: there is no substitute for victory. Peace comes from the real threat of using overwhelming force, not from blatant nonsense written on glossy tables. A prosperous and better world results from a strong and more confident West.
