It's so easy from an armchair in Ohio to support this. My loved ones are not in the line of fire.

Regime change would be a welcome thing, but it would have been more welcome in the 80's or 90's when more of the population remembered the less restrictive pre-revolution Iran.

Keep on getting interesting updates on tv but I don’t know how much confirmation there is but the latest is a rocket barrage was launched from western Iran and the missiles exploded within seconds of leaving the launchers.

Maybe Israel is confident that Iran can't meaningfully retaliate.

Do words count?

Words are violence, after all.

Interesting. Gives one pause.

No, we keep getting messages from the powers that be, that there is still a big danger of ballistic missiles. Not to be euphoric.

Only prudent and realistic under the present circumstances

[jon-nyc]

Yeah, my guess is much of the delay is rebuilding a command structure and assessing what’s not been destroyed.

Dig out all the problems. When all this is over Israel should donate a bunch of camels and lots of sheep and let them go back to the people they really are.

Back in the shelter. Feel like I should be singing gimme shelter by the stones.

Good luck Bach, hope it all goes well for you and your.

[Mik]

It's hard to imagine. Best of luck both for you and yours, and for the mission.

[bachophile]

Back out. All kewl.

[Mik]

The Iranians are claiming they struck with precision. I rather doubt that.
