Wrutes John Leo Keenan:

When Iran showed a video of the Israeli attack, I noticed it showed one of four Israeli missiles in the air exploding, but at the same time it made the other three disappear from the screen.  Those probably landed.  Netanyahu and his defense minister boasted about the outcome of their attack.  As the days passed, the “picture” regarding the attack became clearer to the Ayatollah.  A key reason for not turning the other cheek is that he can’t be seen as making implicit deals with Netanyahu, and this tit for tat attacks were like striking a deal together, which contradicts the whole purpose of “the axis of resistance.”

Netanyahu never understood the Ayatollah; he is firm, sagacious.  Netanyahu is wiping out Gaza.  The Ayatollah will try to bring him down, or at least that’s where his interest lies.  The Middle East wants an Israeli leader that will sign a truce with Hamas.
