I posted a few days ago that the mentality at play is that the action is more important than the consequence. That is unfortunately coming home to roost. The Iran regime will be hunted down for as long as it takes. The west has for a long long time under estimated the fanatical regimes and their ability to strike where not expected, BinLaden proved that. As much as American has the military might, technical ability and hardware to prosecute these actions, it’s the follow up guerrilla warfare with a bomb in a car or a bomb in a boat that they will struggle against. Just let us hope that the people do rise up and throw out the regime, because the US will never be able to do that without boots on the ground, and the consequences of the regime surviving may be the Trojan horse in the Americans side for years to come. |

Reference my comment about the lte morning attack.
US official confirms to Fox that US believes Khamenei and 5-10 top Iranian leaders killed in initial Israeli strike on compound; agree with Israel’s intelligence assessment. A senior US defense official tells me that the US government agrees with the Israeli assessment that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead, along with 5-10 other top Iranian leaders who were all meeting at a compound in Tehran Saturday morning. The top IRGC commander also killed. Multiple sources tell me that the timeline for the strike had to be moved up based on intelligence and this “target of opportunity.” “There was a deliberate decision to accelerate the timeline,” officials told Fox. That is why the US and Israel took the unusual decision to strike during the daytime to achieve the element of surprise and to target this meeting. Normally the US military would not launch an operation like this during the day. The meeting accelerated the timeline. “This was a massive, wildly bold daytime attack,” a senior US defense official told me. “It caught the senior leadership off guard, a Saturday morning during Ramadan and on Shabbat in the daytime.” “We hit the senior leaders right out of the gate.” (Israel conducted the targeted strike). |

We know that there will be casualties, but such is the importance of the removal of the radical mullah regime.
Trump was blatantly clear last night when he said in Texas that there will be nothing left that the regime will be able to fight with which the Saudi's and other Arab nations are on board with. I truly hope it works out with very few casualties on the wests side, but……. |

. Why now? Answer me that, there is nothing like a good old war to deflect peoples concerns from what is happening at home. |
Dan Scavino, WH Deputy COS indicated to us yesterday that the B2s were getting ready but your PPRUNE minute by minute news feed, that we are forced to endure, appears to have missed it. |

Let's think the Iranians want a secular democracy. Free of hardline Islamic Marxists, and free of the shackles of the IRGC. Could it be that the ex-Shah's son, Reza Pahlavi, has a role? |

Local US politics has little to do with it, I would suggest.( further debate on the JB Thread may be more appropriate.) |
You think this is freedom? You kill the heads of a regime without anything in place to take up slack and you get anarchy, i just hope it does not follow the route that Iraq went down.

I posted this question elsewhere some days ago when tensions started rising. Given this report from the BBC, posing questions as to the effectiveness of defences against this Iranian riposte, have lessons not been learnt from Ukr? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cg5nm6v2p4no

Assad, Sadam, Osama Bin Laden, Gaddafi.
Maduro - Cuba, and now Iran.... Wonder what Putin's thinking about..... |
As one who has no access to soshulmeejah other than two forums [fora?] of which this is one, I find factual information and informed speculation very valuable.
Bickering and bad manners I can do without. I believe this forum provides valuable insights and am very grateful. |
