The Islamic Republic's intention to launch a military attack on Israel in response to the elimination of Ismail Haniyeh is Khamenei playing with fire.

My question to the military forces in Iran is: what benefit does our nation gain from a military confrontation with Israel over the death of a terrorist who should never have set foot in Iran? Is it not the case that the rulers of the Islamic Republic, with their obsessive mania for destroying a country that neither borders us nor is our enemy, have impoverished Iranians and placed Iran at risk of a devastating war? How long must our nation bear the cost of this medieval lot's hatred of America and Israel?

As I have said before: This is not Iran's war. It is Khamenei's war.
