PNN – A retired US Army colonel warned against support of Washington for Tel Aviv, referring to Iran’s swift and ferocious retaliatory attacks against the Zionist regime’s aggression.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, citing CNBC, Douglas Abbott McGregor, a retired US Army colonel and former Pentagon advisor, sharply criticized Washington, calling Tel Aviv’s attack on Tehran on Friday morning a surprise, and further emphasized Iran’s rapid response and retaliatory and exhausting attacks against the Zionist regime.
In a message on the social network “X”, he called the Zionist regime’s initial attack on Iran a surprise, writing that while negotiations between Washington and Tehran were still ongoing, Israel carried out a preemptive attack on Iran.
McGregor added: In less than 18 hours, Iran responded by firing hundreds of ballistic missiles, including hypersonic missiles, at central Tel Aviv and across Israel. In the meantime, Israel’s Iron Dome was ineffective. Now Netanyahu has reached out to Washington to save himself from certain defeat with American military intervention.

He added: At the same time, Russia, China, Pakistan, and much of the Islamic world have mobilized to defend Iran. Resources, equipment, and technical assistance are flowing to Iran. It’s time to be realistic; Washington has wasted $12 trillion in the Middle East since 2003. The result? Seven thousand Americans have been killed, 50,000 have been wounded, the borders have been opened, and 100,000 Americans die each year from fentanyl poisoning.
The former US Army colonel stressed: I was a commander of American soldiers under fire. I have seen countless coffins wrapped in flags. I don’t want to see any more. Washington’s warmongers had 22 years. They failed. They lied and profited while America was bleeding. Time is up. America First means “America First”; not Israel, not Ukraine, not NATO, but “America First.”
Following the Zionist regime’s Friday morning terrorist attack on Tehran and a number of cities in the country, a number of military commanders, scientists, and civilians were martyred.
Following this terrorist attack, the Islamic Republic of Iran targeted the positions of the Zionist regime with fierce attacks in the multi-stage operation “Wadeh Sadeq 3”. The combined-offensive operation by the IRGC’s aerospace forces includes dozens of missiles and drones.
Our country’s officials had emphasized that they would respond decisively to any adventurism by the Zionist regime. By firing hundreds of various types of ballistic missiles towards the occupied territories, the operation was carried out in a decisive response to the brutal attack by the Zionist regime.
Tehran launched missiles into the occupied territories last night and early this morning in the latest wave of widespread attacks against Tel Aviv. Following the attack, alarm sirens sounded throughout the occupied territories. Senior Zionist officials announced that the state of emergency in the occupied territories may be extended for up to a month due to the widespread attacks by Iran.
Zionist sources say that Iran has fired 70 missiles at occupied territories in a new round of attacks.
