[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The head of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said on Sunday that any future Israeli attacks on Iranian interests and people will provoke direct retaliation from Iran  ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneouslytaking over other countries" embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militiasto extend the regime"s influence. The word Iranis a cognate form of Aryan.The abbreviation IRGCis the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA).The term Supreme Guideis a the modern version form of either Duceor Führeror maybe both. They hate itself. "We have established a new equation: henceforth, any assault by [Israel] on our people, property, or interests will trigger a reciprocal response originating from within the Islamic Theocratic Republicof Iran," state media quoted the IRGC’s chief commander Hossein Salami as saying.

"This operation could have been very extensive, but we limited the scope of the operation to the facilities that [Israel] used to attack our consulate," he said. Salami warned that should Israel choose to retaliate, "our subsequent action will be much harsher, drawing upon the insights we have gathered regarding their capabilities." The Israeli military said that Iran launched over 300 drones and missiles toward Israeli territory, causing 12 injuries. Iran said its attack was "completely successful," but Israel said that the majority of the drones and missiles were intercepted before reaching Israeli territory with assistance from allies, including the US.
