🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran's Parliament speaker @mb_ghalibaf warns tonight that Israel's bombing of southern Beirut will not go unanswered: ▫️They are neither committed to a ceasefire, nor believe in dialogue. And through the naval blockade and violation of agreements regarding Lebanon they demonstrate that they only understand the language of power. ▫️The naval blockade against the Iranian nation, and America's green light today to the Zionist regime have turned American and regime bases and assets in the region into legitimate targets. The hand of our armed forces is open, as ever.

همکاران ما در دولت همواره مراقب بوده‌اند آرامش روانی جامعه مورد تهدید قرار نگیرد و تاکید من بر حفظ وحدت و تحمل تفاوت‌هاست، اما وقتی صداوسیما و برخی فعالان رسانه‌ای در شرایط جنگی لبه نقدهای غیرمنصفانه را به سمت دولت بگیرند، مجبور خواهیم بود پاسخ درخور بدهیم، این به صلاح کشور نیست.

Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf threatens that Iran will attack U.S. bases and assets in Gulf Arab countries in response to the Israeli strike in Beirut's southern suburbs and the ongoing U.S. naval blockade of Iranian ports. "The naval blockade against the Iranian nation and America's green light today to the Zionist regime turn American and regime bases and assets in the region into legitimate targets. The hand of our armed forces is open, as always," Ghalibaf said. "They are neither committed to a ceasefire nor believe in dialogue, and by demonstrating through the naval blockade and violation of agreements regarding Lebanon that they only understand the language of power."

FACT: More than 90% of the potential energy still remains in spent nuclear fuel. Some advanced reactors under development could consume or even run on this fuel in the future.

The Islamic regime vowed to attack northern Israel if Beirut is attacked. Tehran now has three potential responses to Israel's Dahiyeh strike: 1. Not responding, risking losing face. 2. Attacking northern Israel, risking an Israeli response against Iran. 3. Using one of its proxies to attack Israel to maintain plausible deniability. If I had to bet, I'd go with option 3 (a drone from Iraq).

The Israeli airstrike in Beirut’s southern suburbs was carried out with three missiles targeting two apartments in the Nizlet al-Mawqif area in the Dahiyeh. Last week, both Hezbollah and Iran threatened to attack northern Israel if the IDF strikes the Lebanese capital.

@pmarca The three issues are actually connected. The same organizations and many shared funding sources are promoting the climate agenda, the anti-data center movement and the pro-palestine crowd: foxnews.com/video/63964474…
