Gen. Amidror: Israel Must Respond More Harshly to Iran than It Did in April


(Jerusalem Post) Yonah Jeremy Bob - Maj.-Gen. (res.) Yaakov Amidror, a former head of Israel's National Security Council, told the Jerusalem Post that Israel must respond much more harshly against Iran's massive ballistic missile strike on Tuesday than it did to a similar strike in April. In April, Israel responded to 120 ballistic missiles, 170 drones, and dozens of cruise missiles by destroying the Russian-made S-300 anti-aircraft missile system for defending its Natanz nuclear facility, but without hitting the facility itself. Amidror said, "They didn't leave us a choice. They are acting now as if they can do whatever they want." Israel's response in April "didn't stop them, so now it must be more serious."
