Iran Is Studying And Analyzing Israel's Response To

Jerusalem Post: Iran reveals its strategy advising Hamas on war against Israel  

What is important here is that the conversation with Ghaani comes as Iranian media published a unique look at Israel’s air defense systems, asserting that Israel is showing new vulnerabilities. 

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force head Esmail Ghaani spoke with Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh over the weekend and they discussed the latest developments in the situation and the conflict in Gaza. Tasnim news reported the discussion in Iran. It comes amid an Iranian regional push to support Hamas, including pro-Iran leader Hadi al-Amiri in Iraq indicating his support for Hamas. Turkey and Iranian-backed Houthis and Hezbollah also support the Hamas war against Israel. The press release about Ghaani being in touch with Hamas senior leadership comes days after Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal also spoke to Turkish media and was quoted in Iranian media about Hamas strategy.

WNU Editor: A few things in this post that caught my attention. One .... according to the leader of Hamas, they have enough missiles to continue the war for 6 months. Two .... Iran's hand in this conflict is more deeper than what is being reported on. Even predicting a few days before the conflict on when it will start. And three .... Hezbollah, to no one's surprise, is learning from this war on what to do in their next war with Israel.

6 months, eh?

Hamas working in the Gaza Striptease did not have factories or money to build that many. The UN doing nothing about Iran's machinations shows that the Un is a worthless and dangerous enterprise. That people are not lining up tanks on Iran's border or sinking their speed boats by the tens, if not hundreds to send a message will only encourage the peckerheads.

IF the 6 months worth are close enough together maybe we can see a few conventionally caused mushroom clouds. 6 months would become 0 months quickly.

Can Hezbollah fight Israel, ISIS, the Turks, while keeping an eye on the Sunni and Phalangists?

Strategically, at least in the short run, the longer this plays out, the more depleted Hamas will become in terms of offensive firepower. In case of an all-out war with Hezbollah in the near future, this means Hamas will be less effective as an internal diversion than it might have otherwise been. No doubt Hezbollah and Iran are keeping close watch on the conflict to see how Israel responds, but at the cost of Hamas' near-future effectiveness. If the rags were more forward-thinking, THIS would be the OPENING phase of a concerted Hezbollah/Iranian simultaneous attack on Israel, which should have already commenced. Will their intel from this offset the loss of Hamas' offensive strength? I doubt it, simply becuase I think Israel is saving its ultimate response and most recent military tech for when things get REALLY desperate. Right now, they're just shooting fish in a barrel. So far at least, I don't think Israel is showing very many of their cards as to how they'd respond in the case of a Hezbollah blitzkreig.
