Israel is reportedly planning a massive retaliatory response against Iran for yesterday’s missile attacks. This upcoming attack could include strikes on oil and gas targets, as well as nuclear sites.
Historically, Israel has not shied away from making its intentions very clear. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to be in meetings with his security cabinet Wednesday to mull potential operations in response to last night’s Iranian attack which saw some 181 ballistic missiles fired directly at Israel. This could very well be the start of a third world war.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s first words in the wake of the attack were “Iran made a big mistake tonight, and it will pay for it” and included the vow, “Whoever attacks us — we will attack them.”
While Israel’s military claims most of the missiles were intercepted, and that there was almost no damage or Israeli casualties, the avalanche of available on-the-ground videos contradict these assertions. Israeli media has cited officials who say retaliation on Iran could include hitting targets like gas or oil rigs and Iran’s nuclear sites, according to a report by ZeroHedge.
A correspondent for the Times of Israel claimed that the same publication has cited another official who says the response will aim to inflict “significant financial damage” and that Israeli leaders feel the strike “must be significant, and it must come soon.”
Israel’s security cabinet spent much of Tuesday night in a secure bunker under Jerusalem. By the end of the meeting, there was reportedly consensus that Israel’s military would hit back.

“The regime in Iran does not understand our determination to defend ourselves and our determination to retaliate against our enemies. They will understand. We will stand by the rule we established: whoever attacks us, we will attack him,” Netanyahu continued.
Should this conflict explode, the United States would likely very quickly become very involved, exasperating and already tense geopolitical climate.
