Hossein Salami, head of the world’s leading terrorist organization, is at room temperature. Donald Trump took out Qasem Soleimani, the previous leader of Iran’s terrorist Revolutionary Guards Corps, in 2020. On Friday the 13th of June 2025, Israel erased Soleimani’s successor Salami, along with military generals, political leaders, and nuclear scientists. The latter join at least seven other scientists Israel hit in the previous decade. Iranian nuclear physicists exhibit short half-lives.
The day after Trump announced the successful conclusion of trade talks with China, Israel launched against Iran. Was this coincidence? China and Iran are allied in desiring to destroy America. America and Israel seek to neutralize their joint enemies. An Israeli attack on Iran could have sidetracked efforts to conclude Chinese trade negotiations.
On June 4, Trump relayed a message to Iran through Putin: his patience was exhausted and Iran better not target American regional assets. Putin, anxious to trade help with Iran for Trump’s assistance in ending its Ukraine war, has volunteered to take custody of Iran’s highly-enriched uranium. The weekend before Israel attacked, Trump made a rare Camp David visit to huddle with Vance, Rubio, Hegseth, and military chiefs, minimizing the potential for leaks from that remote location. American non-essential staff were then evacuated from our Baghdad embassy, along with our dependents in the region.
The Israeli attack began with decapitation strikes to take out key Iranian leaders (military and political) before targeting nuclear installations. Israel followed the pattern it used in recent months to target Hamas and Hezb’allah leaders. We also targeted Houthi officials during the successful drive to get them to cease attacks on shipping earlier this year. A little-noticed aspect of the Signalgate affair was that it revealed CIA Director John Ratcliffe's comment that if action against the Houthis was delayed a month

Maybe this will hamper the terrorist networks for a while.
“Iran’s nuclear scientist exhibit short half-lives.” Now that is some darn good writing.
Here’s hoping.
Quite.
Regime change requires boots on the ground. One wonders if a shadow army has been trained and armed for this but we don’t know about it yet.
Uranium-238 has a half-life of 4.5 billion years. The half life of Iranium is much less.

More likely, it will motivate more.
The real problem is the basij or Iran’s scooter militia. If they stop patrolling and beating dissidents over the head, the opposition will take over. However, it’s really hard to make this happen as if the opposition takes over, a lot of these basij will hang.
Correct.
Not American boots. Senator Graham, is that you?
I still believe that the Theocracy will be over soon and that the leaders will either be killed or will bug out to other countries, maybe Qatar.
My hoagie will miss him.
I can't see Trump doing anything like that. He became an enemy of the old GOP by attacking the Invasion of Iraq as stupid. Having something like the Contras, however, is a possibility. The failure to provide back up at the Bay Of Pigs in Cuba is why Cuba remains a problem.
Very true
As an aside, I had a couple of pieces of cold salami from the fridge last night and about 4 slices of very thin pepperoni
Didn’t know I’d be reading this article today
Reports are that what’s left of the top of the regime are already bugging out. Israel has such complete control of Iranian airspace their jets are now refueling over Tehran. People are dancing in the streets with no retaliation.
