She must have deleted the tweet. It was about private planes leaving Tehran with well connected people on them.

Similar things happened in 1979.

Bombing the oil facilities is an escalation.

I’m going to go fill my tank

[jon-nyc]

Israel needs help with Fordo.

[Mik]

I seriously doubt that we would do anything but supply weapons.

[jon-nyc]

Only the B2 can deliver the GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) and only the US operates the B2.

The phrase "Don't start something you can't finish" comes to mind.

What’s amazing is that Hezbollah seems to be sitting this one out altogether.

[jon-nyc]

We’re getting the band back together.

Huge if true

That would be regime change since the Ayatollahs probably would not take kindly the American Satan moving into their beloved country. And since we've done something similar to a couple countries in the neighborhood without much success we at least should have learned we are not too good at taking over Islamic countries and making them workable. Also, this would mean a pivot away from China--not in our best interest at the moment.

Wishful thinking on the part of the Israelis.

[Mik]

Yeah, the IDF has plenty of commandos.

Yeah, China seems to keep getting lucky in that manner. After the Cold War ended, for a while it looks like the USA will focus on China. Then 9/11 happened.
