Qassem Suleimani
Mohammad Bagheri
Esmail Qaani
Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf

What do these names have in common?

They all began their military careers fighting a Kurdish insurgency after the 1979 revolution, later becoming top IRGC commanders.

The law of unintended consequences.

Throughout the night and evening, many Israeli attacks happened around Lebanon

Abba, Toul, Kfaruman, Shahabieh, Kfartabneet, Dier Kayfa, Nafakhyeh, Adaysit, Dier Siryan, Toulren, Safad al-Bayikh, Tamrieh and many more

Unfortunately the attack on Qlayleh killed one.

The attack in Zawtar murdered a family of four who stayed in their home because they had no where else to go

โ—๏ธPete Hegseth and Marco Rubio are clashing over the U.S. approach to the war with Iran, three former U.S. officials and a senior regional official told Middle East Eye.

The two were described as โ€œat each otherโ€™s throatsโ€ over whether the U.S. should deploy troops to Iran. Hegseth supports the idea, while Rubio is deeply wary of entangling the U.S. in a long war

Iranโ€™s underground โ€œmissile citiesโ€โ€”tunnel complexes built to hide its missile arsenalโ€”are becoming key targets for U.S. and Israeli strikes.

Aircraft and drones are destroying launchers as they leave the tunnels, while bunker-buster bombs hit entrances and surface infrastructure.

According to U.S. commanders, hundreds of missiles, launchers, and drones have been destroyed, and Iranโ€™s missile launches have dropped about 86% in four days.

Pissing out everyone, especially whose military is still functioning well and an ally of Israel on your border isn't really the best practice :)
