Hard to compete with bombing female elementary schools.
Assuming that happened, I guarantee it was a targeting error. The US and Israel have no actual reason to target children, seeing how they have plenty of useful military targets and want (or at least need) the Iranian people's support for regime change. For what it's worth, Iran has claimed their strikes on Oman were mistake, and I believe that too, since Oman seems to have genuinely been trying to help them. Just Oma…

#72These attacks feel like a last gasp of air before death. There is no strategy except to use the last remaining resources to inflict damage to wherever possible but obviously this is not a strategy that will lead to survival.

LOL they were attacked first. The bad guys in this story are Israel and their puppets the USA.
Maybe if we don't count the tens of thousands of Iranian rockets, missiles and drones that they had their proxies launch.
Re: Iran attacks RAF base in Cyprus, an EU country
#74Iran's communication specifically calls these bases foreign soil. and "reassures" the host countries that the attacks are not against them. In this case it would be UK soil.
How does Iran communication describe the attacking of Saudi ARAMCO oil facilities and hotels in Bahrain and Dubai?

>hotels in Bahrain and Dubai IRGC claims they are being used to house US troops that left their base (in the case of Bahrain) and/or intelligence ops.
I guess the US marines are also operating the Saudi oil facility and French base on their time off Their actual current explanation is that they can't control their armed forces https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/iran-news/article-888422

Turning the entire Middle East against Israel and the US seems like a pretty good strategy actually. Iran has been incredibly successful in this war so far.

Is it working, though? You have to hold an incredibly low opinion of the intelligence of the leadership of the rest of Middle East to think they won't realize it's not exactly what it is. The few indicators I've seen suggest they're not falling for it. They might not like the US or Israel, but Iran was nobody's favorite country either.

And the proxies? Either directly created or supported at inception by Israel. Or emerged as a response to Israel aggression.
I would love to know which Iranian proxy Israel "directly created". You might be confusing Hamas with Ahmed Yassin's previous charity, which ran schools, mosques and clubs. Even that charity was not "directly created" by Israel, Israel merely allowed them to operate.
Just like current Iran situation is due to UK and USA “playing country building” 50-70 years ago.
