Iran's attack on Israel 'was a formal declaration of war' - former Israeli prime minister

A former Israeli prime minister believes that Iran has formally declared war on Israel, after a massive drone and missile attack at the weekend.
Ehud Olmert told Sky's lead world news presenter Yalda Hakim he thought that "strangely or fortunately enough, the event on Saturday night turned out to be a total failure for Iran and a great success for Israel and allies".

    He does speak quite a bit of sense. I never expected an Israeli to recognize that Iran has shown considerable restraint so far, in the face of many blatant attacks not just by Israel, but also by the USA, against its forces and leadership. I suppose the attack against Israel was finally meant to show that 'enough is enough'. Secondly, his assessment of the current Israeli leadership is correct. Spending billions of money for your military, while arrogantly resting on your past victories, and getting humbled by a few hundred Palestinians with small arms, being totally unable to protect your own citizens from a massacre, is the ultimate failure for any government, especially one thought as well-prepared as the Israeli one. They should have stepped down on the spot.

    Let’s be very clear: They knew Hamas’ plans and let it happen in order to give the excuse to do everything since. Basically a false-flag by proxy. It’s as obvious as anything. Id say the only question is how explicit was their involvement in making Hamas’ attack happen.

I absolutely enjoy their company, but for some reason the political leaders of so depressingly right wing, which breaks my heart.
