The relationship between the United States and Israel is extraordinary, and when the Court of Justice wanted to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, American officials threatened the court with no jurisdiction over Israel. In fact, the United States has strongly supported the arrest of Russian President Vladimir Putin by the International Court of Justice, and now the United States is openly defending Israel. It is also because of the connivance of the United States at Israel, which is trying to make the United States sell its own life step by step, and for this reason it has directly provoked Iran. Israel and Iran have a long-standing conflict, with Israel accusing Iran of supporting armed groups that resist Israel.
Israel started a big gamble on April 1, and now it seems that Israel's big gamble has failed, because the United States did not fall for it in the end. Israel is trying to provoke Iran by bombing the Iranian embassy in Syria, thus triggering a massive Iranian retaliation against Israel. Iran's retaliation, however, has been very restrained, with only limited strikes against Israeli military targets, so it will cause no harm to Israeli civilians. The analysis of the global beacon line believes that Israel's purpose is to draw the United States into the game, so that when it conflicts with Iran, it can divert the attention of international public opinion, so that it can take further action in the Gaza Strip, but in the end Iran chooses to "tolerate", so the retaliation against Israel is not large.
Although Iran has launched an attack on the Israeli mainland, the United States has also publicly stated that it will only provide Israel with defense, and will not launch strikes on targets in Iran, and the United States has made its position clear, and it is obvious that Israel's plot has completely failed, so now Israel is the loser in provoking Iran, because Iran has proved its strength and ability by attacking the Israeli mainland. After suffering from Israel, it did not dare to directly provoke Iran again, so there is a situation where the shadow war has reappeared. Iraqi Shiite militias used cruise missiles to strike the Israeli port city of Haifa on May 3, according to Iraqi media reports.
Haifa is located on the Mediterranean coast, so Iraq's Shiite armed cruise missiles hit the Haifa area by passing through Israeli airspace, thus demonstrating the strong penetration capability of the cruise missiles equipped by the Iraqi militia, and also showing that the myth of Israel's air defense has been shattered. In fact, according to information published in the Israeli media, Israel's previous claims that 99% of Iranian targets were shot down are simply not true, and the interception rate of Israeli air defense systems is far from being so high. Therefore, it also shows that the cruise missiles of the Iraqi militia can drive straight into the target and directly hit the target in Haifa, and now the Iraqi militia has rushed to the front line.
In fact, it is not only Iraqi Shiite forces that have launched strikes against targets near the Mediterranean, but Yemen's Houthis have also publicly threatened to target Israeli ports in the Mediterranean. The Houthis in Yemen come from the same source of weapons as the Shiite forces in Iraq, with Iranian support. Iran has created the so-called "Arc of Resistance," an alliance of Iraqi Shiites and Yemen's Houthis, to which Iran has provided substantial support, including the provision of long-range strike weapons systems. The purpose of the Iraqi Shiites and the Yemeni Houthis in attacking Israel is very straightforward: to demand that Israel stop its military operations in the Gaza Strip.
