I said I was going to hit you, but I won't hit you now, and I won't tell me when I'm going to hit you, you just wait for me to hit you every day.
On April 1, an Israeli airstrike on the Iranian embassy in Syria caused a large number of casualties. Iran has been talking about retaliation, as if it is about to do it in the next two days.
The equipment of the Iranian army, navy and air force is relatively average, and the best weapon of the army is the T-72 tank. The Air Force has several dozen F-14s, MiG-29 and Su-24s, which are completely unsurvivable in front of the Israeli F-15I and F-16I. The Navy has several Kilo-class submarines and several thousand-ton surface ships, which are of little use.
But both Israel and the United States are particularly afraid of Iran's madness, and the elder Biden heard about the Israeli air strike on the Iranian embassy, so he hurriedly said that he didn't know about it and that it had nothing to do with the United States.
This is mainly because Iran has the largest arsenal of medium- and short-range ballistic missiles in the Middle East, and Iran can hit at will with a range of less than 2,000 kilometers, which completely covers all Israeli and US military bases in the Middle East.
In recent years, the accuracy of Iranian missiles has also improved very rapidly, a few years ago, after the US military beheaded General Soleimani, Iran used missiles to symbolically retaliate against the US airfield (Iran was notified in advance before launching the missile, and there were no casualties), among which the missiles accurately hit the hangar where the plane was parked.
Of course, these missiles with a range of 2,000 kilometers are only known information on the Internet, and I don't know if Iran has any big missiles.
So, don't say anything stupid that is useless if you haven't fought in real combat. The guys who often make the other party scared are all those who have never been in actual combat. The more uncombated, the more frightening.
Iran's threats to Israel are valid until they are realized. Truth be told, in its current state, it may be more effective for Iran not to fight directly than to fight directly.
The oil market is highly sensitive to geopolitical turmoil in the Middle East, which is vital for the supply of basic raw materials to the world, and the current situation is favorable for Iran: good times have come for the oil industry, raw materials are in high demand, prices are rising. An open military conflict may undermine its position as a favourable supplier, and it may be better to take advantage of the opportunity to make an offer.
Iran is taking advantage of this, as can be seen from the phone calls between Iranian foreign ministers and Western counterparts on the website of the Iranian Foreign Ministry mfa.ir. #春日生活打卡季#
