If recent history is a guide, then the occupying IDF won’t have to wait long to find out whether their strike into Syria crossed one too many red lines.

An Israeli air strike outside the Syrian capital of Damascus has killed a senior adviser in Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), according to reports from Iranian state media.

Sayyed Razi Mousavi, one of the top IRGC commanders in Syria, was killed on Monday.

He was responsible for coordinating the military alliance between Syria and Iran, an important part of Iran’s regional network of allies and proxies known as the “Axis of Resistance”.

Mousavi “was killed during an attack by the Zionist regime a few hours ago in Zeinabiyah district in the suburbs of Damascus,” Iran’s official IRNA news agency reported, using a different name for Sayyida Zeinab south of the Syrian capital.

In a statement read on state TV, the IRGC said that the “usurper and savage Zionist regime will pay for this crime”.

The GAE can attest to the kind of payment the IRGC can extract. And over the past 4 years, Iran’s already impressive rocketry forces have only become more sophisticated, accurate, and powerful. Perhaps now would be a good time for Bibi Herod to consult with Orange Man about the appropriate after-the-fact bluffs and lies to sling.
