They are very creative, resolute, and ballsy.

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/15/us/politics/iran-israel-mossad-nuclear.html

It was reported that the Mossad stole nuclear secrets from a secure warehouse in Tehran in January 2018. According to reports, the agents came in a truck semitrailer at midnight, cut into dozens of safes with "high intensity torches", and carted out "50,000 pages and 163 compact discs of memos, videos and plans" before leaving in time to make their escape when the guards came for the morning shift at 7 am.

If Iran really wanted to set the Israelis back, kill those red heifers.  No heifer, no sacrifice, no demolition of the Rock of the Golden Dome & no WW III.

Pray for peace.  Humanity doesn't need WW III.

TLDW - the Iranian strike was kinetic diplomacy and countries have used this form of diplomacy for some time. I think this has been alluded to in many threads in the past but without a name.

Israel has sharks closer to the boat that need killing, so it might be prudent to wait.  I'm sure the IDF leadership wants to take a good look at what worked and what didn't go so well in the weekend's "air raid".

19 soldiers wounded in Gaza yesterday and they are continue to deal with insurgents in the northern half of the strip.  The northern Lebanese front is still very active, with the IDF killing another senior Hezbollah leader today.  The West Bank remains a potential powder keg, with settlers killing Palestinians for the murder of a 14 year old boy last week, in addition to militant activity that has driven the IDF to carry out 90+ brigade level actions since October.

this is what i'm leaning toward also -- a response but limited in scope

i do not think we will see the epic 'mother of all retaliations' at this point

I agree that Israel's response should be "measured."

1)  Radar sites
2)  Missile/drone production facilities
3)  Obliterate any Iranian air force
4)  Obliterate any Iranian navy
5)  Destroy nuclear sites
6)  Destroy other military command and control sites
7)  Target any sites that support third party terrorists
8)  Catch all for assets that I am unaware of that are used to kill non-Iranians.

It's coming.

"...Germany’s Lufthansa has suspended its regular flights to and from Tel Aviv, Erbil, and Amman, up to and including Monday. Flights to Beirut and Tehran will remain suspended until at least Thursday.

KLM cancelled all flights to and from Tel Aviv until Tuesday, a spokesperson for the Dutch arm of Air France says.

Britain’s easyJet on Sunday paused operations to and from Tel Aviv. The carrier said in an emailed statement to Reuters that it will temporarily pause operations to and from Tel Aviv until April 21.

Wizz Air says it had cancelled most of its flights to and from Tel Aviv, Saturday through Monday.

Finnair has suspended operations in Iranian airspace until further notice, which may cause longer flight times on flights from Doha. A spokesperson said the Finnish carrier will reroute over Egypt, resulting in delays of a “few minutes...."

Also, Houthi terrorist have fired more than 90 drones and missiles in the last 48 hours, some directly at US naval vessels. How long are we gonna sit and let these scum attack our people? Houthi-controlled Yemen needs to get flattened in a way that can't even imagine, we need some shock and awe here.

Every hour they wait decouples their response from the drone and missile attack.

At this point, to much of the world, it will look like Iran responded to an Israeli attack in Syria and if Israel attacks inside Iran, it will be a new series of aggression with Israel initiating the aggression.

Israel hit another Hezbollah commander, making two so far today.

The IDF says it eliminated a senior commander in Hezbollah's elite Radwan force in an airstrike in southern Lebanon earlier today.

Muhammad Shahouri, according to the IDF, was the commander of Radwan's western district rocket unit.

Shahouri was targeted while driving in the village of Kfar Dounine, adjacent to Chehabiyeh

The IDF says Shahouri was "responsible for the planning and execution of many rocket [attacks] towards the Israeli home front," from the western and central areas of southern Lebanon.

Alongside Shahouri, another Hezbollah commander, Mahmoud Fadlallah, was killed in the strike. The IDF says he was also a member of Hezbollah's rocket unit.

Where did you see the Houthis have fired 90 missiles/drones in 2 days?

CENTCOM and the UKMTO haven't reported anything since the 13th of April.  The Houthis ops tempo has slowed way down as of late.

They know Iran is all spun up now for a response. Drag it out a couple days, units will be tired and complacent and not as combat effective as they were initially, whereas Isarel can ensure that it's forces are well rested.
