Ted Cruz: 作为一名美国参议员,我认为以色列对伊朗的军事打击是不可避免的,因为伊朗一心想要获得核武器。特朗普总统曾明确表示,伊朗只有完全拆除其核设施才能避免战争。然而,伊朗不仅拒绝拆除,反而宣布将建造更多离心机,这无疑是对特朗普总统的公然挑衅,也是对以色列发出的明确信号:立即攻击我们。因为我们正在加速获得核武器,如果你们再等下去,可能会发现自己面对的是一个拥有核武器的敌人。因此,我认为以色列采取行动是为了保护自己,但局势对以色列、美国和整个世界来说极其危险。我坚信,如果伊朗袭击美国军人,特朗普总统将以压倒性的力量回应。作为一名美国参议员,我始终坚定地与以色列站在一起,支持其自卫的权利。 Ben Ferguson: 我认为以色列打击伊朗是重大世界事件。国际基督徒和犹太人团契正在帮助受反犹主义威胁的犹太人,我呼吁大家捐款支持他们,帮助以色列人民。 Benjamin Netanyahu: 作为以色列总理,我认为以色列发起了“崛起雄狮行动”,旨在消除伊朗对以色列生存的威胁。伊朗公开呼吁摧毁以色列,并正在开发核武器。他们已经生产了足够制造九颗原子弹的高浓缩铀,并正在采取武器化措施。如果不加以阻止,伊朗可能在很短的时间内生产出核武器,这对以色列的生存构成威胁。因此,以色列拒绝成为伊朗政权发动的核大屠杀的受害者。我们袭击了伊朗核浓缩计划和武器化计划的核心,以及弹道导弹计划。伊朗发射了300枚弹道导弹袭击以色列,并计划在三年内生产1万枚导弹,这对以色列构成无法容忍的威胁。

📰 Overview of the Situation

  • The operation, named "Operation Rising Lion," targeted:
  • Iran’s nuclear enrichment and weaponization facilities.
  • Senior Iranian military leaders, including the head of the IRGC.
  • Ballistic missile infrastructure.

🇮🇱 Israel’s Justification

  • Prime Minister Netanyahu declared the strike necessary to prevent a nuclear holocaust and ensure Israel’s survival.
  • He emphasized that Iran was close to producing nuclear weapons and had made aggressive moves toward weaponization.
  • The Israeli government views this as a defensive action, not a declaration of war.

🇺🇸 U.S. Perspective

  • Senator Cruz strongly supports Israel’s actions and frames them as beneficial to both Israeli and American security.
  • He warns Iran against retaliating against U.S. forces, asserting that any attack on Americans would provoke a devastating response from President Trump.
  • Cruz criticizes the Democratic Party and the Biden administration for being weak on Iran and insufficiently supportive of Israel.

🧠 Strategic and Tactical Elements

  • The strike is described as a “decapitation strike” aimed at crippling Iran’s nuclear and military leadership.
  • It was timed to coincide with the expiration of a 60-day ultimatum issued by President Trump for Iran to dismantle its nuclear program.
  • The operation is portrayed as highly successful, with significant Iranian casualties and infrastructure damage.

🗣️ Political and Ideological Commentary

🔮 What’s Next?
