Army chief: Iran's missile attack on Israel's territory "will be met with a response" | DW News

Israel's army chief Herzi Halevi has pledged Israel will respond after Iran launched an attack against Israel at the weekend. The government's war cabinet met again Monday to weigh its response. There has been no announcement of any definite action. But Herzi Halevi said Iran will face consequences.
For more on this, we talk to Yossi Mekelberg, Professor of International Relations and Associate Fellow of the MENA Programme at Chatham House.
And we talk to DW correspondent Amien Essif, who is following events in Jerusalem for us.

@@3o8o9 If you are an independent and critical thinker then you do not need an explanation. If you are on the left or far left then any attempt of a nuanced and balanced conversation on the topic of Israel and its right to exist as a state and sovereign country in the region is futile. Most western media is ideologically captured and biased and outright hostile to the state of Israel. Israel had not even mounted a response to the attack and atrocities by the Hamas terrorists (militants for most of the western media) on October 8, 2023 but most western news outlets were already "sharpening their knives" and denouncing Israel. "They had it coming" right? The rot in the West goes deep, from Harvard (and most of our educational institutions) to the media and so called liberal elites in the West which benefit from democratic and liberal rule but denies Israel to defend itself in the face of totalitarian, hostile and literally genocidal countries and entities like Hamas and Hezbollah and yes the fundamentalist and theocratic Republic of Iran which seeks the eradication of the state of Israel and its inhabitants. (and so does Hamas and Hezbollah the proxies of Iran). They are attacking Israel with rockets for decades now and are heavily armed and supported by the terrorism exporting regime in Iran. Iran declared war on Israel a long time ago. Does the western media portrait all this in an unbiased way or do they have an agenda? Decide for yourself.
