Was Israel’s reported strike in Sudan an exercise in propaganda?:

This time it was carried out by planes or unmanned aerial vehicles. Israel had struck again.

‘To Iran, Israel is not a goal, it’s a tool’
 
Israel is a tool that Iran uses in order to export its extremism into the Gulf. From the days of the Shah, they wanted hegemony in the Gulf, and Israel is a game they play. So when they want to win support among Arabs, they start screaming about Israel; they simply play off frustrations and fears in the Arab world. And to some degree they’ve succeeded ?
