The op-ed, Hypersonic Missiles Are a Game Changer, by Quincy Institute analyst and former National Security Council senior director Steve Simon...
Is there an individual in an unfriendly country who cannot be apprehended? What if the former commander of Irans Revolutionary Guards, Qassem Soleimani, visits Baghdad for a meeting and you know the address? The temptations to use hypersonic missiles will be many, Simon wrote.
Hours after the op-ed was published, the Pentagon confirmed that Soleimani was killed in a U.S.-led airstrike at Baghdad International Airport.
The New York Times did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
I was wondering if it was the “it’s a go” signal.
That's correct.
