Friday and Saturday, the Israeli air force gelded Iran, diminishing the Mullahcracy’s sway and putting paid to the Russian-supplied defense systems. At the same time, the refusal of the owners of the Los Angeles Times and Washington Post to do the expected and endorse Kamala Harris for President has roiled their partisan activist staffs. Harris angered her rally crowd by promising a Beyoncé concert and delivering just a Beyoncé abortion speech at the same time Trump had an engaging three-hour conversation with Joe Rogan.
My take on Israel retaliation air strike on Iran: Only 13 months ago, it was believed that #Israel did not have the capacity to threaten #Iran nuclear sites, that if Israel tried, it risked unleashing a devastating response from Iranian proxies - Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis and militias in Syria and Iraq.
On 10/26, Israel: 1- Had its fighter jets spend hours in Iranian airspace, striking once and twice, at will, showing that Israel's air force was prepared to wage war, 1,500 miles away from home.
Whether Israel took out Iranian air defenses or not is irrelevant since the Jewish state struck with impunity and with Iran unable to ward off the attack.
With its inability to engage Israeli air force in its air space or scare it away, Iran's only response was to launch missiles on Israel.
Israel is taking on a country eight times its size at a distance of 1,500 miles.
Israel showed Iran that if it comes for a second round, the 2,000 lb bunker busters can make of Fordow what it made of Nasrallah and Safieddine.
Of course, don't expect Iran to say anything other than "We did not even suffer a scrape." Israel reportedly destroyed all the radars of Russian S-400 and S-300 systems, leaving Iran's entire airspace blinded and in a second onslaught on Saturday it struck near Shiraz, Isfahan, Mashhad and in the northern region near Kurdistan.
"In #Iran, the king is naked. #Israel has proven that it can fly over the country with impunity, maneuver at will, and destroy military installations of its choosing. Dictatorships, as a rule, do not survive long after such a humiliation." Those who wished Israel would take out Iran's nuclear facilities and oil refineries were disappointed and pointed to President Biden for reining them in.
Israel has made clear its fight is not with the people of Iran but with those who oppress them.
