Israeli official vows ‘We have more surprises coming up’ for Iran following wave of airstrikes Senior official reveals Iran projected to have 8,000 ballistic missiles within two years if not stopped

... Right now, Israel believes Iran has about 2,000 missiles.

"We cannot end this operation knowing that we will be in the same spot two years from now," the official said. "Everything is going as planned. Actually, better than planned."

The official added: "We have lots of surprises. Not just the ones we already did. We have more surprises coming up."

Forty Iranian air defense systems have been hit since the beginning of the operation, which is based on three goals -- targeting Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs and removing the Iranian existential threat against Israel.

During the initial strike against a meeting of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) air force officials, Israeli intelligence assessed that 30 commanders were killed.

"It’s a historic achievement," the official said.

Israel now expects more incoming Iranian missiles in the days ahead that will cause casualties and destruction.

...The official also told Fox News that the U.S. is "fully coordinated" with Israel, yet declined to go into specifics.

"The way the U.S. is standing beside Israel is unprecedented," he said. "We feel it."

excerpt (not that all that Fox displays - salaciousness [ is fit to view)

it As to warrant and US help, it is rather simple. Any nuke armed, ballistic missile, war mongering country, and aligned with other countries aiming the same at the US, is an enemy to the US.

And while Western Europe, as well as most of the US is committing slow suicide via its acceptance of entrenched Wokeism, these are not nuke threats, unlike the 3 aligned countries that were so before Ukraine.

As regards Israel, Iran should never have gotten this far.

US kicked the can down the road for years; Israel attacked can. And Iran was gaming for time to become a long range, nuke armed ballistic missile empire like its allies.

Iran vows new nuclear steps in response to IAEA censure

Axios ^ | 6/12/2025 | Barak Ravid
Iran on Thursday repudiated a declaration from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) that it's not complying with its nuclear obligations, and said it would enhance aspects of its nuclear program in response.

That was before Israel (reacted) attacked this recalcitrant enemy of it and the US. It actually was warranted and saves lives, as would have dealing with Germany by stopping it earlier.

All of this is pointless at this point without regime change. Iran needs to start over with a new government democratic system and free the people. I do hate the regime change concept but this has to happen. I wish the young people would uprise like it was 1979 but without Islam.

It is worth considering Russia’s strategy against Ukraine of destroying electricity infrastructure.

Economies run on electricity. Crushing electricity production and delivery slow the pace of the economy directly, such that ANYTHING in the country, especially all military efforts, is slowed to a crawl. Plus, virtually nobody dies when you take out a substation.

Worth considering …

Are you going to watch Trump’s off to war parade today? Little do those boys know that today will be their first steps towards being fed into Bibi’s American meat grinder.

We’ve seen this Bibi movie before. Bibi’s latest episode lacks only the specter of the Ayatollah’s yellow cake.

“without Islam”

Iran is less likely to ditch Islam than the USA is to ditch Christianity.

The problem with Islam is its intolerance.

Their budget priorities are out of whack, with open elections of competing politicians the populace might want to redirect some of that budget.

“Finish the job. That’s what Dresden and Hiroshima accomplished.”

Be aware that Iran almost certainly has enough U-235 to make bombs.

This U-235 could be smuggled into Bethesda or DC’s Ward 3.

“Get the guys that really run the regime.”

What needs to be done is to convince those guys to hand over the U-235.

Of course, we can’t ever be 100% sure that we’ll get all of it.

Oh just stuff it. Israel doesn’t need American soldiers. They’re doing a fine job all by themselves.

And if the mullahs are stupid enough to attack American bases we can wipe them off the map from the air.

I would think the missile factories and the drone factories would have been in the first set of targets.

But I guess thats why I am not a strategic bombing planner.

You are wrong. The Iranian regime must be destroyed because they have clear intentions of destroying Israel, and then the US (by their own words, they will be destroyed). The only thing that will save them is for the Iranian people to rise up and destroy the cancer that leads them. Israel can do it itself, but US assistance is greatly appreciated.
