(haipo) – Interpretation: Following the Chief of Staff's announcements and the State of Israel's overt operational activity, security tensions with Iran are reaching a boiling point. In the coming hours, Israeli deterrence against the nuclear threat and Iranian terrorism will be tested, with the message clear: if the attacks continue, Israel will respond with force and unprecedented force, with all options on the table.
Neutralizing the nuclear program as a strategic goal
Operation "Am Kalavi", carried out by the IDF, the Mossad, and the Israeli intelligence community, was defined as a necessary step to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
Beyond the central goal of thwarting the nuclear project, Israeli policymakers are also targeting the entire Iranian threat – security, political, and economic. The struggle against the ayatollah regime is not only about the future of Israel’s security, but also about the stability of the entire region, given Iran’s long-standing support for terrorism against Israel and the entire world, and the establishment of murderous proxy organizations such as Hezbollah, the Houthis, Hamas, and more…
Not just nuclear… Iran as a regional terror hotbed for decades
Since the ayatollahs came to power in 1979, Iran has become a center for planning, financing, and logistics of terrorism in the Middle East. Through organizations such as Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, and other elements throughout the region, Iran promotes sophisticated terrorist infrastructures that directly threaten the citizens of Israel and the entire world.
The regime in Tehran has played a central role in attacks, missile launches, and instigating terrorist attacks for about 40 years. The current IDF effort is also aimed at severing these arms, by eliminating the head of the octopus. This goes far beyond the nuclear program; it is about completely neutralizing the Iranian threat to regional peace and paving the way for a program of cooperation between countries in the Middle East, including countries that today fear Iranian influence.
Israel's strike capabilities – a clear message to Tehran
In an unusual statement made by the Chief of Staff this morning, who said: "The road to Iran is paved," it can be understood that Israel is currently able to reach every window of a house in Iran.
This is not just a slogan: the Israeli security system has the ability to precisely strike vital targets within the country, including the top of the Iranian terrorist regime as well as the economic and industrial infrastructure. The oil sites, which provide the bulk of the regime's income, could become legitimate targets if attacks on Israel continue. This is an overt threat to Iran, but also an implicit warning to the international community, which is very sensitive to oil prices.
Global impact of attacking the Iranian oil industry
The destruction of Iran's oil industry could have a dramatic impact on the global energy market. The price of oil has already begun to soar, which will directly affect the economies of many countries - from major powers like China and the United States, through Russia and Turkey, and the entire world.
Therefore, Israel is acting cautiously: it is not rushing to activate the economic tool, but is leaving this option on the table as a means of strategic pressure on the Iranians and on countries that may mediate the next stage of the agreements that will end the entire campaign in a few weeks.
The Iranian regime is under direct threat of overthrow
In some ways, Israel is signaling that overthrowing the regime in Tehran is no longer taboo. Beyond the military and economic threat, Israel is hinting, for the first time openly, that it has the ability to influence regime change in the country.
Tehran – once considered a traditional strategic rival – is seen as a dangerous factor for the future of the region and its own people. The Iranian public itself suffers from severe oppression, economic crises, and a destructive foreign policy, and hence Israel may have an interest in internal change in Iran, through a change of government.
The heavy missile attack on Tel Aviv and the possible Israeli response
The strong statements come after a severe rocket attack in the Tel Aviv area, which caused loss of life and a large number of injuries, along with significant damage to property.
Israel's political and security response, which compares the Iranian regime's actions to state terrorism, frames the struggle in terms of morality and international legitimacy. The statement in the title of this article, that "the gun is held to the temple," is not merely a metaphor - Israel may act militarily and politically with unprecedented intensity in the coming days and eliminate senior figures in the ayatollah regime.
The coming hours are crucial for the future of the region.
Saturday, June 14, 2025, may be a day of strategic change in the Middle East. While the world is closely watching developments, Israel is on the offensive out of a sense of mission and confidence in its capabilities. The current operation may become a turning point not only in the fight against Iranian nuclear weapons – but also in shaping the future of the region and the entire world, a world that is already partly occupied by extremist Muslims who are largely influenced by the ayatollahs’ regime.
The LORD will give strength to his people. The LORD will bless his people with peace.
There is no and will be no American authorization to sabotage the refineries in Iran. Trump is fighting the cost of living and only recently boasted of lowering fuel prices and falling inflation. Hitting oil (even if it is exported to China) undermines his promises to his voters
Soft and not soft…
As we said
Terrorists must be eliminated!!!!!
Good morning and Shabbat Shalom.
Reka, that's how it's written, not racha (soft hand, etc.)
