1) As I like to do, I wanted to wait til some of the Iranian Fordow dust settled. It will be weeks before anyone knows for sure how much damage was done to the Iranian nuke program, but suffice it to say that when combined with the earlier Israeli attacks . . . heap big damage.
2) The extent of this damage was seen in the Iranians' response, which was "WE'RE GOING TO SUE!" Yeah, that's a real deterrent there!
3) A word on the attack itself. It was carried out with precision not seen since Schwartzkopf's "Hail Mary" in in 1991.
4) The intricate coordination of so many aircraft, cruise missiles, all working with the Israelis, and ALL done in secret---boo hoo little Jennifer Griffen---that it will be studied for years just as the Israeli raid at Entebbe or their attack on the Osirik Iraqi nuke plant.
5) Again, while VERY EARLY, it speaks not only to the Punisher Pete Hegseth's team and capabilities, but Susie Wiles' grip on loose lips in the White House.
6) Most important, this attack occurred after several in the administration spoke up and stated their case against.
7) As best we can discern, both J.D. Vance and Tulsi Gabbard opposed---yet were 100% on board after the attack started, exactly as it should be.
8) My take is that this will be more like Grenada than Iraq. I would wager a burger that Trump will NOT put boots on the ground.

Good take from FReeper LS.
Ping. Hope you don’t mind. I did excerpt.
Grenada? “The invading force consisted of the 1st and 2nd battalions of the U.S. Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment, the 82nd Airborne Division, and elements of the former Rapid Deployment Force, U.S. Marines, U.S. Army Delta Force, Navy SEALs, and a small group Air Force TACPs from the 21st TASS Shaw AFB ancillary forces, totaling 7,600 troops”
Yeah, yeah. As if some self-aggrandizing lower court judge is actually going to rule against the President of The United States ......oh......wait.......ay caramba! This is genius!
Thanks for posting. It’s always good to hear from LS/Larry.
One can’t help but notice...no democrats ...no leaks!!!
>>”As best we can discern, both J.D. Vance and Tulsi Gabbard opposed-—yet were 100% on board after the attack started, exactly as it should be.”
Then again, that its self could have been disinfo designed to give Iran the false impression that the administration was bogged down by indecision and infighting.
The flawless execution of this complex operation sends a message to the world, beyond just Iran. China, Russia, Ukraine, and any other number of other players have just been shown, if they had any doubts, that Trump is willing to go kinetic if he needs to. This will only make negotiations on other topics easier for him.
..HEAR HEAR PROFESSOR
May not get invited back to War Room LOL
If IIRC, our landing troops on the beaches were met by the press as they came ashore?
Exactly right, plus it is also a domestic warning to the illegal invaders, unlawful protest mongers and other domestic POS groups that they may be next.
I think #5 was the most important part.
You may be thinking of Somalia under Clinton?
Thanks for calling out ignorance of history. There are too many blusterers who don’t know their basic facts, like the ones you highlighted.
Wouldn’t comparing this with Operation Babylon in 1981 when Israel also stealthy bombed Iraqi nuclear facility be more accurate?
Looked it up and it was Somalia in ‘92.
No. We jumped from C-130s into Grenada, first, then the Marines came in on ships.
The press met our troops on the beaches of Somalia in the 1990s.
History is a chronology of nations whacking on each other.
Eventually the US will be rubble like Rome. For this moment at least we have the bombs.
I’ve bet money less than 5 Dems were briefed beforehand. And maybe none.
