    BREAKING:

    Iran has warned its citizens to leave Lebanon within 24 hours

    After a whole list of countries that called their citizens to leave Lebanon, Iran also did.  

    This means that the chances are high that Israel will still invade Lebanon and deal with Hezbollah instead of Gaza.  

    Hezbollah is the real threat to the Zionists and far greater than Gaza and Hamas.  Well, the chances are high that the Zionists have made a decision to go "all in" on Hezbollah and settle on Lebanese territory.  

    While the US will help keep Gaza under siege without electricity, water, food and normal living conditions for children and civilians.

    If true , this means Iran has no significant forces in Lebanon , and expects a successful land invasion or bombing there by Israel , meaning no significant AD . This also means if they are staying out of Lebanon , that they will stay out of Gaza fight too . Therefore given no significant opposition from Arab states , with only some Palestinians and some Lebanese factions engaged in the fight , their plans now should only include these forces .

    They sure have. The Jericho III missile. Claims that it is just an IRBM are likely BS. If you look at the performance specs of the Shavit 2 space launcher, which is based on the same technology, it is about the size of a Minuteman missile and has more thrust in the first and second stages than it.

    Shavit 2 is 26.4 m tall and has 1.35 m diameter with 4 stages. It has a 1650 kN first stage engine and a 516 kN second stage engine.
    Minuteman III is 18.3 m tall and has 1.68 m diameter with 3 stages. It has a 790 kN first stage engine and a 268 kN second stage engine.

    If true , this means Iran has no significant forces in Lebanon , and expects a successful land invasion or bombing there by Israel , meaning no significant AD .

    Or maybe they want Israel to think everyone is leaving which will make it the easy option.

    Cutting off food and water and electricity to Gaza is a long term siege method of dealing with a problem... you wouldn't attack immediately.... you leave it for the cut off resources to take effect.

    Regarding the drone strike on the Merkava with that double warhead RPG-7 rocket, that rocket was overkill... they would have been better off using a much smaller lighter older RPG-7 rocket with 300mm penetration, because that would be all they needed to penetrate the top of the vehicle and damage the insides. An old 73mm calibre RPG-7 rocket that would not effect the vehicle from the front could easily penetrate the top and damage the engine or crew or ammo and it would be smaller and lighter too.

    Even if they do not need , they could still benefits by symbolic / demonstrative support . Anyone can give this help , non-lethal or defensive measures . Force a change in this environment . Benefits the region , Russian interests in Syria , as well as Iran . Stops bombings by Israel , in Syria and Lebanon and secured route to Med . Showing Iranian troops along the border , officially , will help a lot . Sending AD , or allowing Syrian AD , to protect Lebanon is also useful . There is a lot can be done , between peace and war , forty shades of grey !

    yes sir

    Iranians should have stationed troops in Armenia , and NK region , as well as Russia doing this , to stop ethnic cleansing and expansion by Turkey and NATO . We can not collect the Eggs , if we do not have a Chicken first . Economic investment , will bring the Chickens to Roost ! The right kind of politics . But at first the Child we get , is an errant child !
