The question is not what they know about you, but what you know about them. Yes, Iran has been infiltrated but why can't they infiltrate Israel to the same level?

It's called "IDEOLOGICAL FERVOUR" Israeli Jews, and the Jewish people from all over the world have them in SPADES for damn good reason. They will not allow themselves to be placed or subjected to the cycle of killing, pogroms etc..that have followed them throughout their history and existence. In a lot of ways I can understand their barbarity towards their enemies. They rather do the killing than be subjected to the killings.

This is the biggest test Iran has faced in maybe last 800 years (Mongols were worst)

They either rally around their nation and civilization, Fight for it, or Israel and US will slowly degrade and destroy Iran. Most likely Iran will break up into pieces.

If they truly can fight back. They have the resources. They have the oil money, they have resources they can import from Russia. They can build up their missile and drone forces and Bomb Israel repeatedly until Israel itself is trouble. But they need to grind this one out and not give up. They need to be like the Houthis. Let's see if they have the mettle to struggle like that.

Jesus Christ who else did they hit? Was Khomeini in there, too? What the hell is with Iran keeping all their officials in one place.

Chief of Staff - dead
Head of IRGC - dead
Head of IRGC-ASF - dead

How they heck were they able to locate and target all these high profile people? There were so many hints of attacks, they should have moved top leadership to secure locations...

Is this all Israel's got? This attack didn't destroy Iranian chain of command, their decapitation strike failed. The US didn't even back them up this time so it's also politically a loss for Israel. All they achieved is a few notable kills and damaged civilian infrastructure. If Iran targets Israel factories, oil storage and power facilities Israeli economy will collapse.

Why do some of you guys suddenly turn super Anti-Iran when Iran gets attacked by Israel? They are literally the victims of Israeli aggression. Do you guys have no honor at all?

It's just for show. There must be a power play within the Iranian leadership itself especially amongst the people that are just simply sick and tired of living under the hypocrisy and theocratic rule of the mullahs - who love doing all the things they preach and warned against its own people. When was the last time the Iranian military made any purges based on incompetence, corruption, and sabotage?

Considering earlier reports of Iranian supreme leader Khamenei’s ill heath and possible succession, the struggle between hardliners and reformers will definitely intensify especially in the wake of this attack.

So far Iran has effectively lost Syria, Gaza, and the Shia crescent is in pieces. Hardliners must be really pissed as many of them died without meaningful paybacks. On the other hand, Iranian people seem to be leaning towards reformers as they elected Masoud Pezeshkian instead of the hardliner candidate.

There is also Khamenei’s son who is favored to succeed his father as supreme leader. What view does he have? How is he going to leverage this opportunity to solidify his support or increase his influence?

It’s going to be interesting.
