Comics, 8-5-20: Iran's Missiles & Israel

8-5-20, What will Iran now do after it's missile warehouse is destroyed in Lebanon?

Iran-Backed Terror Group Claims Half-a-Million Missiles at the ready to launch at Israel ...https://freebeacon.com/national-security/iran...
2-14-18, FreeBeacon -- Militants tied to Hezbollah, the Iranian-controlled terror group that operates along Israel's northern border in Lebanon, claim they have deployed more than 70,000 long-range missiles across Syria and Lebanon in preparation for a strike on Israel. The number of missiles could grow to nearly half-a-million within the next year, according to these militant groups. [..] Middle Eastern experts who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon said that Iran's strategy may be to line Israel's northern borders with advanced missiles ahead of a possible confrontation with the Jewish state. [..] "Syria and Hezbollah [Lebanon] will wage a ‘joint missile campaign' against Israel, and… Iranian experts are ready to launch missiles at Israel from every part of Lebanon and Syria," according to the pro-Hezbollah publication, a translation of which was performed by the Middle East Media Research Institute, or MEMRI, which monitors radical communications. These Iranian-backed terror proxies claim they will be able to amass at least half-a-million rockets within the next year if Israel does not take immediate action to bomb missile caches in Syria and Lebanon. ... it's important to note that Iran has also transferred a massive rocket arsenal of 180,000 to Hezbollah in Lebanon. The strategy is to saturate Israel with rockets from two northern fronts and overwhelm their air defenses. Israel has some big decisions ahead. The longer they wait to neutralize this threat, the more nasty that two-front rocket arsenal becomes.

On May 22, 2015 Barack Obama signed the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015 into law... The United States is the world’s great power holding the military and economic cards. The Obama administration did worse than squander our advantages; it lied to enable its errors. The Trump administration has an opportunity to strike a different kind of deal; President Trump on May 10, 2018 withdrew America from the Iran deal.

Obama Administration’s Iran Deal Failure: A Reckoning
6-6-18, NatlReview -- The Iran deal was a deceptive dereliction of duty from the outset, resting on a fundamentally flawed understanding of Iran, the Middle East, and the world. Obama administration tried to do Iran an immense financial favor, one not required by the deal itself, to uphold the mythical “spirit” of the agreement (yes, that’s their off-the-record excuse). Iran had reportedly complained that it “wasn’t reaping the benefits it envisioned,” and the Obama administration attempted to help — even though it had publicly assured Americans that “Iran will be denied access to the world’s most important market and unable to deal in the world’s most important currency.”

In exchange for milquetoast assurances about Iran’s nuclear program — How milquetoast? Just yesterday we learned that Iran opened a new centrifuge assembly center at its Natanz nuclear site — the Obama administration allowed Iran access to international arms markets, agreed to an immense stimulus through sanctions relief, and traded pallets of cash for American hostages. Worse still, it gave money back to Iran even as it used American tax dollars (instead of Iran’s own funds) to compensate American victims of Iranian terror. The best possible spin on the deal is that the Obama administration gambled on its own misbegotten ideology, believing against all evidence that massive giveaways would soften jihadist hearts.
