The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

...to Iran.

cnn.com - Israel iran missile attack middle east intl hnk

Since it was a launch directly from Iran, I wonder if Israel will directly attack Iran. It would seem justified to me, since Iran didn't go through its proxies. It would have to be a missile strike, preferably against military targets (as I mentioned previously). There are at least two nations between Israel and Iran, so a ground operation wouldn't be feasible (or advisable, given their incursion into Lebanon).

They could just take it out on Iranian proxies. But Bibi is a hawk, so I would not be surprised if he takes the fight to Iran. Israel has a significant missile inventory, though most appear to be anti-missile missiles. They do have the Delilah cruise missile. If I were a betting man, I'd say Bibi is going to direct his wrath at Iran-proper.
