Netanyahu says, "Khamenei is not off limits" after devastating strike on
Netanyahu revealed extensive damage to Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, including strikes beyond known facilities like Natanz and the inactive Arak reactor. He noted “more nuclear targets” remain but vowed that Israel would eliminate both nuclear and ballistic missile threats. Addressing the possibility of targeting Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, he said, “All options are open,” while urging his ministers to “reduce talk and increase action.”

Bibi Vows: No more nuclear threat or ballistic missile threat
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made his most sweeping declarations yet about Israel's military campaign against Iran during a visit Thursday to Soroka hospital, which was struck by Iranian missiles early this morning, confirming for the first time that Israeli forces have targeted Tehran's nuclear archive and outlining ambitious war aims that extend far beyond previous operations.
Speaking at Soroka Hospital in Be'er Sheva, one of four locations hit by Iranian missiles Thursday morning, Netanyahu revealed the breadth of Israel's assault on Iran's nuclear infrastructure. "We hit Iran's nuclear archive," he stated, marking the first official acknowledgment of strikes against Iran's sensitive nuclear documentation. The Prime Minister added that Israel has "hit the nuclear program very hard" and targeted "the top of their scientists."
Netanyahu outlined what he described as Israel's dual strategic objectives: dismantling Iran's nuclear capabilities and facilitating regime change. "We set two goals, nuclear and bringing down the regime," he said, though he placed responsibility for Iran's political future on its own population. "Iran's liberation depends on the Iranian people, and this will be tested by them."
The Israeli leader's comments signal a dramatic escalation in stated war aims. When asked about the possibility of assassinating Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Netanyahu responded that "all options are open," while instructing his cabinet to "reduce talk and increase action."
Netanyahu's hospital visit came hours after Iran launched approximately 20 missiles at Israel,including at least one equipped with cluster munitions that scattered unexploded ordnance across civilian areas. The attack represents a significant escalation, with cluster bombs, widely condemned for their indiscriminate nature, targeting population centers.
The Prime Minister confirmed recent coordination with President Trump, stating that potential U.S. military involvement "depends on Trump, he knows the game." Netanyahu emphasized the division of responsibilities: "He will do what's good for America, and I will do what's good for Israel."
In a historical parallel that underscored his regime-change ambitions, Netanyahu invoked ancient Persian-Jewish relations: "2500 years ago Cyrus freed the Jewish people, now the Jewish people are helping the Persian people to be freed."
The campaign has extracted personal costs even from Israel's leadership. Netanyahu revealed that his son Avner has canceled his wedding for the second time due to missile threats, describing it as part of the "personal costs" borne by Israeli families during the conflict.
Netanyahu promised the military operation would continue until Iran's strategic threats are eliminated entirely. "At the end of this operation, there will be no nuclear threat to Israel and no ballistic missile threat," he declared, acknowledging there are "more nuclear targets" yet to be struck.
The revelations mark the most comprehensive disclosure of Israel's anti-nuclear campaign, suggesting operations that extend far beyond the known facilities at Natanz, Isfahan, and Arak to include Iran's scientific personnel and archival infrastructure. The scope of targeting indicates a systematic effort to dismantle Iran's nuclear program at multiple levels, from physical facilities to human expertise to documentary records.
As Netanyahu spoke at the damaged hospital, the contrast in regional stability was evident in financial markets: Tel Aviv's stock exchange posted gains for the fourth consecutive day while Tehran's bourse remained shuttered indefinitely, reflecting the asymmetric economic impact of the escalating conflict.
Cluster bomb suspected in Iran Strike: Israeli cities rattled by scatter
Missile splinters strike homes and streets across central Israel—IDF: "New phase of warfare has begun."

Security sources revealed today that one of the missiles launched by Iran in this morning’s massive barrage may have been a cluster bomb, a highly controversial weapon that splits into smaller submunitions midair, spreading destruction across a wide area.
Initial assessments suggest the missile broke apart over Gush Dan, scattering smaller warheads across multiple civilian locations including Or Yehuda, Jaffa, Savyon, and additional towns in central Israel.
Footage from the aftermath shows what appear to be fragments of the dispersed “mini-missiles,” some of which landed dangerously close to residential areas and public infrastructure.
The IDF, alongside bomb disposal units, Home Front Command, and the Israeli Air Force, is actively investigating whether the device was indeed a cluster bomb, a type of warhead banned by many countries for its wide-area impact and long-term danger due to unexploded submunitions.
"This kind of missile presents a new and disturbing escalation," one defense official said. "It’s not just a single strike: it’s multiple simultaneous threats, all from one launch."
So far, no casualties have been reported from the scattered impacts, but authorities remain on high alert as bomb squads comb the region to locate and safely defuse unexploded ordnance.
Yep, the notion of adapt, much less, stay n fight, is clearly not natural for Military-backed Settlers and Occupiers. they're ready to bounce after the 1st signs of diminishing comfort.
They started leaving after Hezbollah and the Houthis got busy, so you know they saying fuck this Iranian shit
Iran with more talking 
Iran: Guardian Council:
If the US commits any mistake against Iran, it will face a harsh and devastating response.
Iran will never surrender, and the United States must carry this dream with it to the grave.
The arrogant US president must know that the leader of the revolution and the Islamic Republic is a political leader.
If Trump considers attacking Mr. Khamenei, a storm will erupt that will destroy the perpetrators and supporters of this crime.

How the fuck a Israeli site gets this type of intel
Iran’s 86-year-old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei cuts an increasingly lonely figure.
Khamenei has seen his main military and security advisers killed by Israeli airstrikes, leaving major holes in his inner circle and raising the risk of strategic errors, according to five people familiar with his decision-making process.
One of those sources, who regularly attends meetings with Khamenei, described the risk of miscalculation to Iran on issues of defense and internal stability as “extremely dangerous.”
Several senior military commanders have been killed since Friday, including Khamenei’s main advisers from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Iran’s elite military force: the IRGC’s overall commander Hossein Salami, its aerospace chief Amir Ali Hajizadeh, who headed Iran’s ballistic missile program, and spymaster Mohammad Kazemi.
These men were part of the supreme leader’s inner circle of roughly 15-20 advisers comprising IRGC commanders, clerics, and politicians, according to the sources, who include three people who attend or have attended meetings with the leader on major issues and two close to officials who regularly attend.
The loose group meets on an ad hoc basis, when Khamenei’s office reaches out to relevant advisers to gather at his compound in Tehran to discuss an important decision, all the people said. Members are characterized by unwavering loyalty to him and the ideology of the Islamic Republic, they added.

Khamenei, who was imprisoned before the 1979 revolution and maimed by a bomb attack before becoming leader in 1989, is profoundly committed to maintaining Iran’s Islamic system of government, is deeply mistrustful of the West, and is committed to the destruction of Israel.
Under Iran’s system of government, he has supreme command of the armed forces, the power to declare war, and can appoint or dismiss senior figures, including military commanders and judges.
Khamenei makes the final decision on important matters, though he values advice, listens attentively to diverse viewpoints, and often seeks additional information from his counsellors, according to one source who attends meetings.
“Two things you can say about Khamenei: he is extremely stubborn but also extremely cautious. He is very cautious. That is why he has been in power for as long as he has,” said Alex Vatanka, director of the Iran Program at the Middle East Institute think-tank in Washington.
“Khamenei is pretty well placed to do the basic cost-benefit analysis, which really fundamentally gets to one issue more important than anything else: regime survival.”
While the security forces have always been able to outlast demonstrators and restore state rule, years of Western sanctions have caused widespread economic misery that analysts say could ultimately threaten internal unrest.

The stakes could barely be higher for Khamenei, who faces an escalating war with Israel, which has targeted nuclear and military sites and personnel with air attacks, drawing retaliatory Iranian missile fire.
The five people familiar with Khamenei’s decision-making process stressed that other insiders who have not been targeted by Israel’s strikes remain important and influential, including top advisers on political, economic, and diplomatic issues.
Khamenei designates such advisers to handle issues as they arise, extending his reach directly into a wide array of institutions spanning military, security, cultural, political, and economic domains, two of the sources said.
Operating this way, including in bodies nominally under the elected president, means Khamenei’s office is often involved not only in the biggest questions of state but in executing even minor initiatives, according to the people with knowledge.
His son Mojtaba has grown ever more central to this process over the past 20 years, the sources said, building a role that cuts between the personalities, factions, and organizations involved to coordinate on specific issues, the sources said.
A mid-ranking cleric seen by some insiders as a potential successor to his aging father, Mojtaba has built close ties with the IRGC, giving him added leverage across Iran’s political and security apparatus, the people added.

Ali Asghar Hejazi, the deputy of political security affairs at Khamenei’s office, has been involved in sensitive security decisions and is often described as the most powerful intelligence official in Iran, according to the sources.
Meanwhile, the head of Khamenei’s office, Mohammad Golpayegani, as well as former foreign ministers Ali Akbar Velayati and Kamal Kharazi, and ex-parliament speaker Ali Larijani, remain trusted confidants on diplomatic and domestic policy issues such as the nuclear dispute, the people said.
The loss of the IRGC commanders nonetheless decimates the top ranks of a military organization that Khamenei has put at the center of power since becoming supreme leader in 1989, relying on it for both internal security and regional strategy.
While the regular army chain of command runs through the Iranian defense ministry under the elected president, the IRGC’s answer personally to Khamenei, securing the best military equipment for their land, air, and sea branches and giving their commanders a major state role.
As he faces one of the most dangerous moments in the Islamic Republic’s history, Khamenei finds himself further isolated by the recent losses of other key advisers in the region as Iran’s “Axis of Resistance” coalition has been hammered by Israel, since the Hamas terror group carried out its October 7, 2023, onslaught on southern communities, murdering 1,200 people taking 251 hostages to Gaza.
Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah, who was personally close to the Iranian leader, was killed by an airstrike in September last year, less than a year after the terror group began launching cross-border attacks on Israel, a day after Hamas’s massacre.
Syrian president Bashar al-Assad was overthrown by rebels in December, one month after a ceasefire was reached with Hezbollah, which had been severely weakened in its war with Israel.

Khamenei’s son at the fore
The focus on survival has repeatedly been put to the test. Khamenei has deployed the IRGC and its affiliated Basij militia to quell national protests in 1999, 2009, and 2022.While the security forces have always been able to outlast demonstrators and restore state rule, years of Western sanctions have caused widespread economic misery that analysts say could ultimately threaten internal unrest.
