— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 BREAKING: U.S. Officials now say that a major Iranian attack on Israel is expected 'within the immediate timeframe'

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇮🇱/🇮🇷 Six things to look for, indicating an imminent Iranian attack within hours:

1. Changes in the IDF Home Front Command, such as nationwide school closures and the limiting of public gatherings.

2. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu going to the Kirya, the IDF's Command Headquarters in Tel Aviv.

3. Airspace closures in the region, especially Israel, Jordan and Iraq.

4. The Israeli government's 'Zion's Wing' airplane being airborne.

5. Biden canceling plans / being summoned to the Situation Room in the White House.

6. Statements from keystone media such as Al-Jazeera or Reuters.

@Middle_East_Spectator

These are the signs I'm looking for, to consider an attack as 'imminent'.

On April 13, all of these things happened within 4-5 hours before the attack.

None of these things have happened yet.

Thank you, Mr. Kalibrated. Slava Putin.

@Middle_East_Spectator

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 BREAKING: President Joe Biden says he expects that Iran will not attack Israel if Netanyahu agrees to a ceasefire in Gaza by Thursday

@Middle_East_Spectator

"Biden expects" does not mean much.

However, hypothetically, if Iran forces Israel into a Gaza ceasefire in exchange for no immediate attack – that would be one of the best 3D chess movies in history.

Of course, only if it is a permanent ceasefire, with a full evacuation of all IDF troops from inside Gaza and an agreement that sees Hamas staying in power.

For the record, I believe retaliation will happen regardless of a ceasefire, as insinuated by the Foreign Ministry.
