Except one so friendly it bombs a radar station.

However, if Iran does not respond, he can declare the cease fire a success.

Re: Israel v Iran conflict

Israel’s refusal to do just a friendly plane wave after he stuck his neck out and ordered them to bring the bombers home has hit him right in his narcissistic nut-sack. For the doubters amongst us, the spittle-flecked, f-laden mini-rant he just dropped while boarding Marine-1 is exactly what someone suffering narcissistic injury looks like.

It’s as if Iran’s decision to fire its duelling pistols in the air yesterday has caused Trump to think he suddenly understands how the Middle East works, and he thought he could order Israel to do something similar, and they’d be ever so delighted to do something for The Donald, after all they owe him bigly for sorting Iran out for them.

He is an utter, utter moron who needs the 25th amendment pulled on him at the earliest opportunity.

Getting into 1984 "Truthspeak" now*

The US airstrikes on Iran did not “obliterate” the country’s nuclear programme and only set it back a few months, according to a leaked intelligence assessment that drew a furious response from the White House.

President Trump has claimed that the American strikes on three sites had “completely and totally obliterated” Iran’s nuclear programme.

But an assessment compiled by the Defence Intelligence Agency found that attacks on Iranian nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan did significant damage without destroying the facilities, it was reported on Monday night.

The agency found that at least some of Iran’s highly enriched uranium needed to create a nuclear bomb was moved before the strikes by US B-2 stealth bombers on Sunday, according to the Associated Press, which cited two anonymous sources familiar with the agency’s classified report...

… The White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, called the leak “a clear attempt to demean President Trump and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran’s nuclear programme”.

She added: “Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000lb bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.”

*I think leaking this info was inappropriate (as it’s Classified), but I understand the frustration that led people to this, to illuminate the lies being told

The Bunker buster could be reclassified as the feather duster if that site is still intact :)

Re: Israel v Iran conflict

What has probably happened is Trump oversold the intervention to give a reason to end the conflict. They probably have made the facility inaccessible for the time being.

More likely most of the material was moved to a n other location or locations a few weeks ago

Yup. And Iran's bombing of the US bases n Qatar was definitely advised in advance. Looks like the US and Iran need to both throw a bit of red meat to their supporters back home without causing too much upset on the ground. Whether the US intended this outcome is not known.

He also gave a rare insight into the choreography of Iran’s retaliatory strikes on the US’s Al-Udeid military base in Qatar on Monday, about which the Iranians issued prior warnings through back-channels.

“They were very nice,” Trump said. “They said, ‘We’re gonna shoot ‘em, is one o’clock OK?’ I said, ‘It’s fine’.”

Re: Israel v Iran conflict

The good news is Iran no longer has a nuclear program as it was "totally obliterated" so there's no need to be in the NPT anymore:erm: yep nothing to see here

About the recent bombing raid…

Quote:

Hegseth says Trump directed "the most complex and secretive military operation in history" and it was a "resounding success".

D-Day would like a word (as would probably the actual mission planners)…

I think there must be a weekly prize for whoever is the most sycophantic amongst his staff…
