Currently, there are no reports that the wicked Ayatollah was hit in the military strikes.

We will continue to follow this development and others at The Gateway Pundit.

Update…

It seems likely that Israel struck an area in Tehran’s Lavizan region, where Khamenei’s bunker is reportedly located, based on recent news reports. Sources like Ynet and others confirm airstrikes with bunker-busting bombs, but there’s no official confirmation from Israel or Iran.…

Reportedly hiding? Not sure I’d trust any “reports” on the subject.

I personally hope he’s dead, however, I think they gave him time to get out
before they blew up his crib.
Guessing he lammed out

Do you think they would randomly lob bombs in the general area where they thought he was hiding? Or that wherever they bombed they were pretty certain he was actually there?

While we run and hide, while courageous Israeli Pilots with titanium balls fill the sky of Iran. On the first night Israeli F-15 pilots said the Iranian Air Force came up and all ran away and flew into central Iran like cowards and never came up in the air again. They fled to places they can be destroyed on the ground.

The United States needs to get its act together and grow a pair of balls and help Israel finish this once and for all. Iran has been at war with America since 1979. They took our hostages and have killed thousands of our people and soldiers ever since then. It has already been an endless war from Iran on the United States with casualties and it is time to blow the shit out of these muslim nazi fanatic stone age killers.

Don't let them make a nuke and put it on a few missiles and launch them. Time to go all in and finish what began in 1979. Already Israeli pilots are using McDonal Douglas Boeing Lockheed Martin General Dynamics Raytheon and all kinds of United States hardware. Time for some United States warriors to enter the battle!

I tend to agree with you, but I’m something of a dinosaur. The new paradigm is no more Vietnams. That was the old one too, but things have a way of repeating on you.

I am a dinosaur as well. Retired now and 1983 through 1992 helped train the first F/A-18 Navy and Marine pilots. We also trained the Australian, Spanish, Swiss, Kuwaiti pilots. In 1985 I met some of the Israeli F-15 pilots that a few years earlier had shot down several Syrian Migs. They were touring U.S. bases at the time. Had them in F/A-18 flight simulators and weapons tactics trainers for a show and tell. They are thoroughly professionals.

We are already at war with Iran and it is high time to admit it and get this war over with and finish what the Mullahs started in 1979.

Nope....bad precedent to teach countries like Israel that THEY can start wars on their own, THEY can finish them on their own.

They want the USA involved in their scrap, they need to let us know first, not blindside Trump with a sneak attack and then expect us to finish it for them.

Well my friend you don't know history. Start with Operation Praying Mantis in 1988 when Iran attacked U.S. Navy ships in the gulf and closed the Straight of Hormuz and in a single day United States Naval power sent the Iranian Navy to the bottom of the sea sinking 3 of their frigates that came out to play. I spoke with one of the A7 pilots once that dropped ordnance that day.

How about the hundreds of Marines murdered in their barracks in Lebanon. How about the the thousands of of U.S. troops dead and crippled in Iraq by Iranians. I could list hundreds of other actions by Iran killing Americans since 1979 by terror or outright defiance and low scale war by the IRGC. It's payback time and anything else is cowardice in the face of the enemy. There were people that thought we should have stayed out of WW2 as well until Pearl Harbor. We gone wait until they plant a Nuke in New York or shoot one into Israel? No more cowardice or impudence its time to fight!

I don’t think the Israel blindsided Trump. I think Trump was informed.
The blindsider was Zelensky.

That isn’t what this is about. We aren’t getting revenge for things 40 years ago in the 80s. We are being lead around by the nose by the people who deliberately attacked the USS Liberty according to the well-respected Admiral Thomas Moorer and USMC General Raymond Davis.
And by that prick Netayahu who welcomed Jonathan Pollard the Navy guy serving life as an Israeli spy. Bibi our buddy scurried out to the airport late at night to meet him on the ramp, called him a hero and handed him a passport.

You are the one that needs to learn some history. This sneak attack by Israel wasn’t to get revenge for things that happened in the 80s. It was for their purposes and they are not a trustworthy ally.

Neither side eats bacon, not an American war no matter how fun it looks.

Trump came out straight away and said he was not informed. The modified that a somewhat after several days because they realized if that was true... it would be impossible for us to join in.

By the way... that Zelinsky drone attack. Quite similar to the Israeli attack on Iran a few weeks later. Intelligence types, pre-positioning pre-targeted drones to unleash on command.

If Z blindsided Trump, so did Israel. Pretty obvious they put the Uke attack together technically. Maybe the CIA was in it... but yes, both of them blindsided Trump.
