Israel hit rocket depot in Iraq, expanding target area beyond Syria, report says

11

The United States has been attacking Iran with biting economic sanctions. Unfortunately Iran’s terror network is still deeply entrenched in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, and other country’s as well. Yet Israel is the only country that has been confronting the Islamic Republic militarily.

What many do not realize is that Israel is on the front lines of the global war on jihad. When Israel takes military action against Iran’s terror network, it is protecting millions of American’s in New York, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles and elsewhere.

That is why it is vitally important for the United States to ensure that Israel has the means to take action against Iran’s aggression and terror. Unfortunately the anti-Israel and pro-jihad Bernie Sanders does not understand the importance of a strong Israel.

Bernie Sanders wants to use the military aid that America provides Israel, to blackmail PM Netanyahu into accepting a jihad state in Judea and Samaria. Naturally these kind of despicable tactics would be rejected by Israel. However, the world will still become a much more dangerous place if someone such as Bernie Sanders becomes president.

Israel hit rocket depot in Iraq, expanding target area beyond Syria, report says

“Sources revealed that the strikes targeted Iranian ‘advisers’ and a ballistic missile shipment that had recently arrived from Iran to Iraq,” according to Asharq Al-Awsat.

World Israel News, June, 30, 2019:

Israel “carried out an airstrike earlier this month against an Iranian rockets depot” in Iraq, according to Asharq Al-Awsat, an Arabic international newspaper headquartered in London.

According to the newspaper, the rockets depot which was attacked is located northeast of the Iraqi capital, Baghdad.

Citing western diplomatic sources, Asharq Al-Awsat reports that “Israel has expanded the scope of its Iranian targets in Iraq and Syria.”

It says that the attack in Iraq took place on July 19 and “was carried out by an Israeli F-35 fighter jet.”

An air raid was also carried out on Sunday targeting the Ashraf base in Iraq, says the Arabic news outlet, noting that the base is located 80 kilometers from the border with Iran and 40 kilometers northeast of Baghdad, though it seemed less clear from the report whether it could be verified that Israel was behind this airstrike.

The Pentagon denied a connection to the strike. Israel did not react, says Israeli public broadcaster Kan.

The 7th century savages have been bombarding Israel with rockets for years. Israel has pretty much limited itself to surgical retaliatory strikes. This move to a preemptive strike against a significantly more dangerous threat is a welcome sign. Make the savages and their UN stooges howl.

The attack by IAF is encouraging, some good news for a change. Meanwhile, the West emboldens if not works in tandem with the Jihad states’ design to eradicate Israel. I hold no faith in the West, for the moment excepting Trump’s America, who deem Israel as the aggressor, the Great Satan and the troublemaker of the Middle East. Since its inception, the State of Israel, the Arab/Islamic States bent on the annihilation of the Jewish State of Israel.

Most troubling, the EU and others of the gutless, submissive West will deem this attack as proof of Israel’s unmitigated aggression. Bernie Sanders, his tagalong radicalized, and moderate Democrats are hell-bent on the destruction of Israel, as is their ally, co-conspirator Islam. Israel’s attack on the Iraq rocket depots is a positive; how much time Israel has to continue protecting her sovereignty, her citizenry is beyond worrisome.

Ziggy, I’m not sure what “hell-bent” means here. I don’t know it is intentional- i.e. they don’t think that is what they are doing. But, you and I agree, that is what their policies lead to.

Attacking the Iraqi islamotards is one thing, attacking Iran is a horse of a different colour. I’m sure anything of significance has substantial SAM and AA coverage.

Whatever happened to all those mobile SCUD launchers Saddam had? Were they all destroyed by US airstrikes? I’ve read the efficacy of the patriot anti-missile systems against SCUDs is debatable.

Lucky they are hitting only the depot areas and not where the leaders live.
