  Like what? Invade Israel? Fire rockets in return?
context: Unconfirmed report that an Iranian high ranking officer visited one of the attacked sites to see the damages and got taken out in another recent attack.
  Again, this is unconfirmed, source is Israeli TV channel 12 1~ hour ago, waiting for TimesofIsrael or Jpost to publish something about it so I can post it as well, but ill add it here for now.
  Edit"
  Sorry everyone still haven't found anything to mention regarding the high ranking officer, only place I heard anything about it was on TV during a live broadcast.
  View this as unconfirmed, if I find something I'll update the OP and make a new post.
  EDIT2'
  A certain concerned user has asked me to stop spreading misinformation, so I'm going to stop.
  This is me stopping.

  Iran on Monday warned Israel "Not to play with fire," and threatened retaliation over Israel's reported involvement in a weekend drone attack on a key defense facility in the city of Isfahan.
  A Wall Street Journal report which also pointed the finger at Israel for the attack noted its timing came at the same time as talks between Jerusalem and Washington aimed at finding new ways to counter Tehran's nuclear program.
  Last week, Israel and the US launched a large-scale joint exercise in Israel and over the eastern Mediterranean Sea, reportedly aimed at showing adversaries, such as Iran, that Washington is not too distracted by Russia's invasion of Ukraine and threats from China to mobilize a large military force.

  Israel isn't going to need any help >
  
  Cool, so we can stop giving them billions in aid every year? >
  
  "Giving" is such a naive word to use, there's nothing free in this world >
  
  I think it's naive to say Israel doesn't need help when the US has been helping them since the 1960s.
  Not to say the US shouldn't be helping, just that they are. >
  
  The western world is getting what they are paying for, it ain't free >
  
  What are we getting?
  I just love how even asking this question is downvoted by Israelis. Really shows their good faith! lol >
  
  They are extremely important to regional security in the middle east for many reasons >
  
  Iran to Israel "Go away or i will taunt you a second time!!!!"!! >

  Play with fire?
  They just did a spinning fire dance. They don’t give a fuck. >
  
  If somebody attacks you and all you do is warn them… you are clearly scared >
  
  Iran has made it clear to the rest of the world that 14 year old girls not wearing magic hats is an existential threat to their regime. The biggest display of power they can muster is raping, torturing, and murdering their own unarmed civilians. >
  
  That is one of the worst attempts at whataboutism i have read. >
  
  Honestly I think he was just joking. If he was doing real whataboutism I feel like he would have hammered it a bit more. >
  
  Poe's Law.
  I wouldn't assume it's a joke, because most sincere whataboutism attempts are just that lazy. >
  
  Just because someone called it a law once doesn't necessarily mean it's true 100% of the time. It doesn't hurt to assume someone is acting in good faith every once in awhile. >
  
  That's what a law is. Not a rule but a very likely explanation. >
  
  Israel: bombs 5-6 different locations across Iran
  Iran: You better knock this off, you're playing with fire if you keep this up...
  big, strong Iran >
  
  "God damn it man, I swear if you guys bomb me 13 or 14 more times, I'm out of here" >
  
  yeah, but you’re a little bitch! >
  
  Oh come on.   
  According to Iranian officials it was only minor damage to a roof. Sounds like a harmless prank that's gone a bit too far.    
  Just write them a check for 100 monies or so. >
  
  
  it was only minor damage to the roof 
  
  Chernobyl here, I agree with your sentiment!  Just a bit of minor roof damage on our end too!  This will all blow over in a few days. 
  P.s. totally understand the humor in your comment, and for fear of the reddit mob must put a /s in mine. >
  
  
  This will all blow over in a few days.
  
  I see what you did there... >
  
  Iran has already threatened to nuke Israel off of the face of the earth. So, it is kind of hard to up the ante after that. "Don't 'play with fire' or we'll, hmm. We'll.. nuke you even more! (when we get one)" >
  
  Yep. Iran has no where higher to go on the escalation ladder after repeatedly and loudly proclaiming that their goal is to eradicate Israel. The islamist regime of Iran has already made their war on Israel an existential conflict. >
  
  I'm curious as to why. AFAIK Persians are generally very keen to differentiate themselves from Arabs and the beef with Israel was mostly because of Arabs/Palestine anyway, is there some problem that Muslims in general have with Israel? I remember reading somewhere that Muslims consider both Jews and Christians legit cos they follow the same God as Islam, why are so many Muslim countries so anti-Israel? Even Pakistan and Bangladesh agree with one another on the anti-Israel stuff, and Bangladesh fought a war to separate from Pakistan. >
  
  The Shia islamists in Iran want leadership of the Muslim world >
  
  That's quite ambitious considering most Muslims are Sunni and Saudi Arabia, who controls both Mecca and Medina still doesn't really have leadership of the Muslim world. Seems crazy to me that they'd believe they can even do it in the first place. >
  
  Twelver Shi'ism 
  
  Twelver Shīʿīsm (Arabic: ٱثْنَا عَشَرِيَّة; ʾIthnā ʿAšarīyah), also known as Imāmīyyah (Arabic: إِمَامِيَّة), is the largest branch of Shīʿa Islam, comprising about 85 percent of all Shīʿa Muslims. The term Twelver refers to its adherents' belief in twelve divinely ordained leaders, known as the Twelve Imams, and their belief that the last Imam, Imam al-Mahdi, lives in Occultation and will reappear as The promised Mahdi (Arabic: المهدي المنتظر). According to the Shīʿa tradition, the Mahdi's tenure will coincide with the Second Coming of Jesus (ʿĪsā), who, along with Mahdi, would kill the Dajjal.

  I don't know, Israel is definitely the good guy in this situation >
  
  How? Whats their reason for attacking iran? >
  
  Idk if there's a more specific reason than this but the Iranian government does constantly threaten to destroy Israel entirely, so it's not as though Israel is entirely devoid of justification when it comes to Iran. It also just so happens that people don't like the Iranian government more than usual right now cos they're being shitheads to their own people and supporting Russia against Ukraine. >
  
  Israel has been shit to “their” people for way longer than iran, i dont see how israel has the moral highground to do anything here. 
  Your first point is ok tho, but doesnt really justify an actual attack because there is no intel or anything that iran is actually doing anything. >
  
  Well I don't like a lot of Israel's actions either, the situation in Gaza is bad and Israel should be condemned for their forced evictions and the innocent Palestinians killed by the Israeli armed forces. 
  But when it comes to the moral high ground in an Iranian-Israeli conflict specifically, in my mind Iran has even less - not least because Israel didn't really do anything to Iran to instigate Iran's hated of it other than just being a Jewish state trying to exist in the middle east. >
  
  What you gonna do? Train terrorist groups to harm Israel? Threaten it with extermination? What are you going to do what you haven’t done yet? Because we all know that the Ayatollah regime is to chickenshit to do anything more than what they haven’t done already. 
  Fuck that Ayatollah regime. You know what was the most baffling thing about these attacks? The list of possible perpetrators is so fucking long. Literally any nation, ethnicity or group could in the region could have done it: Americans, Israelis, Ukrainians, Aserbaidschan, Turkey, the Afghan Taliban, Syrian rebel groups, Kurds, anti-Regime Iranians, anti-Hezbollah Lebanese, some Central Asian nations, some Arab gulf nations, some other Arab nation wanting to get along with Israel, some European nations helping Ukraine, Iraqis fighting Iranian influence or even Syrian regime people wanting get rid of Iranian influence. And the fucking list could go on… isn’t that a sign big enough to make clear that nobody likes them? Maybe it’s time to reflect on your decades long gasoline and lighter-foreign policy? >
  
  I don't think Israel gives a single shit about Iran's opinions.
  They can attack Iran's military infrastructure with impunity & Iran apparently cannot do a single thing about it.
  I hope they don't stop & it gives the people of Iran a chance to eliminate their government. >
  
  Until the one day Iran does do something
