FRIDAY, 10/04/2024


On Tuesday night, Iran struck Israel with almost 200 ballistic missiles, marking the second time this year that the Iranians directly attacked Israel.


President Biden has encouraged Israel to “take the win” that these attacks didn’t do a significant amount of damage, and respond “proportionately”, meaning he doesn’t want Israel to respond with great strength.


What Israel should do is to make it clear the time for equivocation about the Iranian threat is over. Israel should destroy Iran’s nuclear weapons program. Sure, there are plenty of other things they could destroy like oil loading facilities, revolutionary guard bases, and ballistic missile assets. But Israel does not know if Iran is going to hide a nuclear weapon under the nosecone of a ballistic missile the next time they strike. That risk is unacceptable.


It’s high time that Israel and the United States work together to eliminate this nuclear threat. As George W. Bush once said, “America is committed to keeping the world's most dangerous weapons out of the hands of the most dangerous regimes.”


And that’s what Iran is. This is the moment to act.

SIGN HERE TO SAY IRAN IS GREAT THREAT TO THE US


Driving the Week: I wrote an op-ed for The Daily Telegraph on the death of Hassan Nasrullah, Hezbollah’s Secretary General, who died last Friday courtesy of an Israeli air strike. Iran’s “Ring of Fire” strategy, unfolding militarily against Israel across the Middle East since last October 7, has suffered another major setback. Jerusalem has already nearly destroyed Hamas’ organized military capabilities in Gaza and, combined with “Operation Grim Beeper” just over a week ago, has repeatedly imposed shock and awe on Hezbollah’s top cadres and infrastructure. Since Nasrullah met his maker, Israeli forces have pounded Hezbollah strongholds by air and are readying a ground attack, likely aiming to clear out all terrorist threats south of
Lebanon’s Litani River.

Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu flatly ignored President Joe Biden’s pressure not to escalate military action against Hezbollah, and also Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s speech to the United Nations. The BBC derided Israel’s efforts, headlining that Netanyahu was trying to “chase victory.” Israel, however, clearly signaled its resolve against Iran, a quality much lacking in recent US and UK policy. Hezbollah and, more importantly, its paymasters in Tehran, should recognize that Israel is determined to do what it takes to establish its security, notwithstanding enormous external pressure.


Also on Friday, Yemen’s Houthi rebels attacked US Navy vessels in the Red Sea, the latest example of Iran’s year-long campaign, via its Houthi proxies, to close the Suez Canal-Red Sea passage to all but friendly vessels. The Houthis openly declared they would support Hezbollah “without limits.” Showing solidarity with its mates, the Houthis again launched missiles against Israel.
