Since the October 25th Israeli attack on an Iranian nuclear research facility in Parchin, how significant is the damage done to the Islamic Republic’s ability to strike out against Israel? Does the Islamic Republic want to engage with the state of Israel and perhaps her allies in a nuclear war? How damaged has the nuclear research facility become? How long will it take them to replicate it?

Will it continue to simply use its terror proxies “until the last Arab”?

We know that Iran had attempted to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump, Ambassador John Bolton, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and Former Assistant Secretary of State Brian Hook, as well as Masih Alinejad. Since the recent confirmation that three Uzbek nationals allegedly hired by Iran murdered Rabbi Tzvi Kogan, an Israeli Chabad Rabbi, in the UAE, is Iran simply returning to its policy of “murder for hire?”
