The Israeli military stated that, despite President Trump announcing a two-week ceasefire with Iran, Iran has still not halted its attacks on Israel. Currently, Iran's Revolutionary Guard is launching missiles into Israeli territory.
From Israel's perspective, it seems to be complaining about being wronged—after all, a ceasefire has been reached, so why are missiles still being fired at Israel?
This makes perfect sense: Iran made the ceasefire agreement with the United States, and since Israel was an accomplice in the conflict, Iran refuses to negotiate with it. Thus, Iran and Israel remain in a state of war.
Attacking Israel was never included in the ceasefire terms. Israel appears indignant—but what’s there to be upset about? There’s nothing unjust for you to complain about!
Moreover, continuing the strikes is a justified retaliation against Israel.
On the night of April 7, the Israeli government announced they had destroyed eight bridges inside Iran used for transporting military equipment. Isn’t Iran’s retaliation completely natural?
Israel, this regional bully in the Middle East, has long acted with arrogance and impunity, freely attacking any country or resistance force it pleases. But when others strike back, Israel claims to be wronged—and then escalates its aggression even further. Iran aims to teach this Middle Eastern bully a lesson, using the dog as a warning to its master—achieving two goals with one move.
A ceasefire can be negotiated with the U.S., but not with Israel. Let’s press forward and severely weaken it.
