Israel: BADABING! hits 'nearly all' Iranian infrastructure in Syria in retaliation to rocket attack

Iran and much of the Middle East hate it when 'the Jews' refuse to be marched into the gas chambers or otherwise allow themselves to be slaughtered by anti-Semites who want to see their total annihilation.

Iran, inside Syria, launched a barrage of rocket fire targeting military positions in the Golan Heights. Most of those rockets were summarily handled by the Iron Dome defense system, but a few got through and did little harm. No Israeli was killed.

In response to the attack, Israel struck "nearly all" of the Iranian infrastructure in Syria on Thursday, according to Israeli sources.

Back here at home, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said that Iran's behavior shows that they cannot be trusted. She discussed the New York Times report about Mike Pompeo being "miles away" and Trump's decision to pull the U.S. out of the Iran deal, on Fox News' The Story.

Of course, the Times printed before thinking, as is often the case when it goes against the Trump administration. Pompeo was busy doing what none of his predecessors were able to do: negotiate the prisoner release of our 3 Americans with North Korea.

The Israel Defense Force (IDF) deployed fighter jets that successfully struck every target on its shopping list, including: military compounds, intelligence operations and munitions warehouses, according to an official statement. It said that the strikes were Israel's largest air operation in years.

Adding icing to the cake, the missile launcher responsible for Iran's rocket strike was blown to smithereens.

Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus, an IDF spokesman, said the estimated 20 rockets fired from Iranian forces based in Syria was "the most severe attempt" by Iran's Al Quds force to attack Israel. It was the first time Iranian forces have attacked Israel from Syria, Reuters said.

According to Conricus, 4 rockets were intercepted and the others fell short of their targets. No injuries or damage was reported.

"The IDF will not allow the Iranian threat to establish itself in Syria," the press release read. "The Syrian regime will be held accountable for everything happening in its territory. The IDF is prepared for a wide variety of scenarios."

Syria's state controlled media said Syrian air defenses intercepted "hostile Israeli missiles" Thursday morning that were fired over Damascus. Sure they did--it's like how a boxer 'intercepts' his opponents right hook with his jaw.

Hours after Syria lied, a state-run Al-Ikhbariya TV broadcast a live feed of Syrian air defense over Damascus and loud explosions and air defense anti-aircraft was heard through the night.

Iranian casualties were not immediately known but IDF's intent was to target military hardware, not military scumcrumpets. Russia was forewarned ahead of the strikes, according to Reuters. 

Israel and Russia have been communicating closely to avoid air forces coming into conflict. That's a good thing.

Blowing up the Iranian rocket launcher--priceless.

Israel remains of very high alert.
