Iran Lists War Aims Against Israel
(Commentary) Michael Rubin - In an article in Alef, Ali Reza Forqani, an ally of Iran's Supreme Leader, delves into how Iran should conduct a war against Israel: Israel must come under heavy military strikes from the first blows until the last. The first stage must lead to the annihilation of ground zero points in Israel. Iran can use its long-range missiles to accomplish this task. The Israeli targets deep inside Israeli territory are well within the reach of Iran's conventional missiles. In a section subtitled "People of Israel Must Be Annihilated," Forqani outlines how to conduct genocide: The residents of Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Haifa can be targeted even by Shahab-3 missiles. The population there accounts for about 60 percent of Israel's entire population.
