David Horwitz: I’m a Jew. The head of Hezbollah has said that he hopes we will all gather in Israel so that he doesn’t have to hunt us down globally. [to the student] For it or against it?
UCSD Student: For it.
David Horwitz: Thank you coming and showing everybody what’s here
One thing that can be said about the Israel and Iran as they finally openly fight the war that’s been going on between them for decades (and let’s stop pretending this isn’t a war as nobody actually declares war anymore) as that both Israel and the Islamic Republic of Iran are fighting this stage of their war using tactics that are completely consistent with their primary war goals.
Israel has made the Iranian nuclear program and those who are involved in it and those whose responsibility is to protect it as their primary target. This is completely consistent with their primary war aim which is to keep Iran from developing nuclear bombs which if loaded on their ballistic missiles would be used to destroy Israel. Only a few such missiles so armed would be necessary to do the trick so it is vital to the survival of the state of Israel to destroy this capability.
For this reason while other targets might be considered and targeted if the immediate tactical situation calls for it (such as enabling an uprising in Iran) but in the end all of these things must take second place to the destruction of the Iranian nuclear program.
Iran in contrast has one primary goal: Dead Jews.
The destruction of the state of Israel would be a crowning jewel to the mullahs but this is only because it would facilitate the extermination of the largest concentration of Jews in the world.
To this end Iran has launched Ballistic Missiles and drones at Israel in the same way that Germany launched the V1 & V2 rockets at England 80 years ago.
If they manage to hit a vital military target, all well and good but if it destroys cities and kills Jews than the missiles will have done their work. Even if intercepted the debris will fall upon Israel and hopefully kill Jews. The fall of the Jewish state and the rise of an Islamic Caliphate are all worthy long term goals for them but in the end it remains what it’s always been about killing Jews.
Because Dead Jews is what Islam in general and Iran in particular wants most of all.
