“We Had One Last Shot — We Took It”: IDF Chief Reveals Israel’s Last-Minute Total War Order

Dramatic revelations confirm that the launching of a full-scale military campaign against Iran was made "at the last possible moment" - under growing pressure from intelligence warnings.

Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir addressed the Security Cabinet on the eve of the attack, presenting the final operational plans. Several cabinet members reportedly heard the details for the first time during that meeting....

Security officials estimate Iran currently possesses around 2,000 ballistic missiles capable of reaching Israel’s home front - a figure that could have doubled within a year due to Iran's accelerating production.

Another major achievement has been the systematic targeting of Iran’s missile launch systems. \..

Iran's weakening has direct consequences across the region, including on Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Gaza, and the Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Of course He is in charge (though we still have free will to make good or bad choices). I was obviously being facetious.

No, you are factually wrong. President Trump repeated;y asked for negotiations with the Iranian government.Over a 2 and a half month period.

He told them what would happen.

There was no sneak attack.It was a promised attack.

You must be having trouble breathing with your head stuck up your own butt.Straighten up , wash the crap off your face and stand like a man.

I have not settled on my personal opinion on either Israeli destruction of the regime and not even processed the American attacks on the nuclear weapons sites.

But this was definitely not a sneak attack. Trump was stating this openly for days and the Ayatollahs were condemning it for days
