Meanwhile, some US Congressional members are not in the mood for another major war: Jack Reed, the top Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee, criticizes the Israeli attacks on Iran and calls on Trump to push for de-escalation. “Israel’s alarming decision to launch airstrikes on Iran is a reckless escalation that risks igniting regional violence,” Reed in a statement. “I urge both nations to show immediate restraint, and I call on President Trump and our international partners to press for diplomatic de-escalation before this crisis spirals further out of control.” * * * Update (2115ET): Al Jazeera and regional media have reported at least six large explosions were observed in the Iranian capital of Tehran, as Israel confirms it has launched 'Operation Rising Lion' - which importantly Netanyahu in a televised address said "will continue for as many days" until the Iranian 'nuclear threat' is removed, and "as long as necessary". There are unconfirmed reports that Iranian jets have been scrambled and that the Islamic Republic's inevitable retaliation has begun. Iran possesses an immense ballistic missile arsenal, many which can be launched from underground silos and deep below ground 'missile cities'.

NETANYAHU: WE ARE AT A DECISIVE MOMENT IN ISRAEL'S HISTORY NETANYAHU: ATTACKING IRAN'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM, BALLISTIC MISSILES NETANYAHU: STRIKES WILL LAST UNTIL THREAT REMOVED NETANYAHU: WE TARGETED IRAN'S MAIN ENRICHMENT FACILITY IN NATANZ NETANYAHU: SEEKING TO REMOVE BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT It also appears that the reason Israel targeted specifics residential buildings is because as we expected, it was conducting targeted assassinations: NETANYAHU: WE TARGETED IRAN'S LEADING NUCLEAR SCIENTISTS WORKING ON THE IRANIAN BOMB, WE ALSO STRUCK THE HEART OF IRAN'S BALLISTIC MISSILE PROGRAMME Meanwhile, the US State Department is pretending like it had zero involvement in this latest neocon-inspired debacle. *RUBIO SAYS US IS NOT INVOLVED IN ISRAEL STRIKES AGAINST IRAN *RUBIO: IRAN SHOULD NOT TARGET U.S. INTERESTS OR PERSONNEL *RUBIO: ISRAEL TOOK UNILATERAL ACTION VS IRAN Good luck with Iran buying that. * * * Futures and yields are tumbling, and gold and oil are surging following reports of successive explosions in Iran as a result of what Al Arabiya reports are Israeli airstrikes; Axios has confirmed that the Israeli Air Force conducted a strike in Iran, "attacking its biggest and best-armed adversary, without clear backing from the U.S." It was not immediately clear who Israel is targeting. As Axios adds, sirens are sounding across Israel on Thursday night. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared a special state of emergency across the entire country, and said he expects retaliation after the preemptive Iran strike. "Following the State of Israel's preemptive strike against Iran, a missile and drone attack against the state of Israel and its civilian population is expected in the immediate future," Katz said. An Israel Defense Forces spokesperson said only "necessary" activities should take place in Israel starting Friday morning local time. That includes a ban on "educational activities, gatherings and workplaces, with the exception of essential businesses." Ahead of the Israeli strikes, the US notified several allies in private on Thursday that Israeli strikes were imminent and made clear it was not involved, one of the Axios sources said. Sure enough, moments after the airstrikes, CNN reported that Trump is convening a cabinet level meeting. Meanwhile, as Trump said earlier today, his administration already told Israel it would not participate in any strikes on the nuclear program, however, the U.S. has previously helped defend Israel from Iranian attacks and would likely do so again if this strike kicks off a retaliatory cycle according to Axios. In doing so, the US president will likely lose substantial backing from those who do not want to be associated with neocons. But at least Lindsay Graham will have wonderful things to say about Trump. While it is unclear what the targets of Iran's airstrikes are, some have speculated that since the targets are residential buildings that these are targeted assassinations. In kneejerk response, stock futures are tumbling... ... as are bond yields... ... while Oil (where we recently warned that the record shorts will be badly burned)... ... and gold are soaring. The question now is whether this is all performative theater, like the two cases of "non-war" a year ago when the two sides exchanges violently dramatic if completely ineffective strikes against each other, or if this is the real thing and shortly Iran's nuclear facilities will be a pile of rubble. Poster Comment: Lots of videos and charts at source. Gold, oil up. Bitcoin down. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest
