Well they already hold the record so it just means it’ll be worse than the last couple days.

I read something from the Daily Mail where Pakistan said they would nuke Israel is Israel used to nukes on Iran. It's the Daily Mail, so a big old grain of salt is appropriate. I don't believe Israel would do that, but still not comforting.

Looks like Khamenei is on the ropes.

Yeah I saw that too. Could be real. Either way I agree Israel probably doesn't have the need to do that... air winn3rz = precision bombing until something else breaks. Ideally, they need a find a way to enable an uprising and provide cover for it to grow and take over. Could return Iran back to the 70s when they were a modern society.

They haven’t unleashed their largest warhead-carrying missiles yet - the Khorramshahr. I wonder if that’s what we’ll see today?

They might not have an assembled nuke but they could put together a bunch of dirty bombs I suppose. But I suspect that would green light a nuclear response from Israel.

I can’t imagine there are that many US citizens in Iran to begin with.

BTW: the pics are showing what one might call 'the elite'. This scenery wasn 't as general as many folks presumed it was. -

One commentator I heard said that the Iranians, for the most part, have been using old stock missiles to allow Israel and US to use up their defensive missiles. This would enable Iran's next round of more powerful and effective missiles to hit Israel with fewer obstacles to be overcome. Sounds reasonable, but who knows?

Actually never mind. I thought it was a piece by Ferguson. It's not.

All sorts of retweets of this by administration officials. Including Rubio. Maybe something is happening soon.
