Following Iran's missile barrage, which saw more than 180 rockets launched across Israel, in which no one was injured, the IDF vowed Tuesday night to carry out "powerful airstrikes throughout the Middle East." A defense official promised a "severe response," while another Israeli official warned, "What Iran has suffered so far is only a fraction of what it will face now." A high-ranking government official added, "Israel has full legitimacy for an unprecedented strike on Iranian soil - this is the time to strike at the head of the Iranian snake." read more
Trump said: "They have a phone app so the people can come into our country. These are smart immigrants, I guess, because most people don't have any idea what the hell a phone app is." read more
Speaking frankly, a solution is needed to end this ceaseless conflict. [...]

If one truly wants to see a solution, it helps to take into account reality.
The powers that be, often including Israel, have offered peace and statehood multiple times ("How Palestine rejected offer to have its own state 5 times in the past" lawandsocietymagazine.com).
The Palestinians don't want peace. At least not one where Israel (Jews) continues to exist. They think that they're going to turn the entire world against Israel and then the Jews will magically disappear. Unfortunately for them, 7.2 million nuke-Jews aren't going to do that.
This was actually a success for Iran. Iran was sending a message. "We have missiles that can get through the Iron Dome and can reach Tel Aviv." They hit only military targets (unlike Israel). But now Israel is reminded that Iran can cause some level of destruction if it chooses. #17 | Posted by Sycophant
Yes, Iran only attacks military targets. Like when they instructed Hamas to attack that "military" music festival on October 7th. "Iran and state-sponsored terrorism" Wikipedia
Anywho, these 180 rockets were about 7% of Iran's estimated stock (3,000) from a year or so ago www.cnn.com. So Iran could definitely get through and hit some Israeli targets if they shot their entire load. Only question is what happens afterwards, since even 10,000 missiles wouldn't eliminate Israel's military response. And that's not taking into account the US, UK, and French response.
A high-ranking government official added, "Israel has full legitimacy for an unprecedented strike on Iranian soil - this is the time to strike at the head of the Iranian snake.""When Iran is finally free - and that moment will come a lot sooner than people think - everything will be different," he asserted. "Our two ancient peoples, the Jewish people and the Persian people, will finally be at peace. Our two countries, Israel and Iran, will be at peace."

On a somewhat-related note, it's been interesting for me seeing the realignment of certain individuals I know IRL regarding the present conflict with Muslim terrorists.
People who have nothing but dislike for Muslims. Greeks and Armenians (who have told me before how much they abhor Turks and Muslims), suddenly find themselves favoring Hamas and HezzBawlzOff. This is despite the fact that they insisted in years past how much they wish to see Muslims eliminated for past offenses and the future well-being of their own people.
My take is that they hate Jews more than they hate Muslims, or that China's TikTok pro-terrorist political brainwashing has been highly effective.
If only there hasn't been thread after thread about the ME violence where the [Anti-Jew, Pro-Hamas] fanbois excuse everything and anything [Muslim terrorists] do.
