Deter Israel's Enemies, and Ours, from Weaponizing Sanctuaries
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps commander responsible for that terrorist group’s operations in and from Syria and Lebanon was killed yesterday in a consular building in Damascus. Israel has not taken responsibility, but is presumed to have pulled off the airstrike that killed Mohammad Reza Zahedi and six other jihadists.
The UN Security Council will convene this afternoon to denounce that attack on a diplomatic compound. But its use by Iranian terrorists is a fresh reminder of the evil nature of the enemy Israel confronts – as do we. The IRGC and its proxies also routinely use hospitals, schools and mosques as arsenals, headquarters and staging sites for attacks, typically against Israeli civilians.
While Israel strives to minimize casualties among non-combatants, in a war for its very survival, the Jewish State cannot allow its mortal enemies diabolically to use such sites as sanctuaries.
