Lessons Not Learned
As this is being written on the 50th anniversary of the fall of Saigon and the final end of the Vietnam War, that history is being echoed as we are bombing Yemen and using much of the same tactics we employed in the infamous and ineffectual "Rolling Thunder" campaigns of the mid- and late 1960s...

Bushehrs waste is the most highly radioactive and is supposed to be shipped to Russia for reprocessing and disposal but...

Limited Nuclear War<BR> and Israel’s National Strategy
Once Israel has decided (as it should) to shed its traditional policy of deliberate nuclear ambiguity, it will have to consider how to selectively disclose its nuclear capabilities. Israel will need tbesacenter.org
"Israel's stunning and sprawling operation overnight targeting Iran's nuclear facilities, missile sites, scientists and generals followed eight months of intensive clandestine preparations."
(June 13, 2025 / Israel Hayom)
New details have surfaced regarding the preparatory operations that facilitated Israel’s strike against Iran. Israeli military and intelligence forces collaborated extensively over several years, developing comprehensive intelligence dossiers necessary for executing the preemptive Israeli assault that is “Operation Rising Lion.”
Told ya, phase 1 of the OPLAN. Metsada (not to be confused with Metzada) for the win.

"The bomb specifically in question now is the GBU-57 MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator), among the heaviest and most powerful nonnuclear bombs in the U.S. arsenal, weighing in at 30,000 pounds and 20 feet long. It has never been used in combat before."

Why This Is the Only Bomb That Could Destroy Iran’s Nuclear Bunker—Under 300 Feet of Rock
American military engineers designed the GBU-57/B bomb to devastate deeply buried bunkers without radioactive fallout. It’s the only nonnuclear weapon that can reach Iran’s hardest target

Did you actually think Trump was going to broadcast the day he was carrying out strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities? How foolish would that have been?
His administration maintained total secrecy and rightly so. Even today 6 b2s were sent west as a distraction while the two that bombed the sites went completely undetected
Not to mention the 2 fast attack subs that launched with no one knowing until after the fact
Iran is a paper tiger about to crumble. Unlike Iraq and Afghanistan the Iranian people are fully capable of governing themselves once the Islamic fanatics that have ruined their modern society are finally neutered
It’s too early to tell but I am more focused on Syria and Turkey’s response. Trump lifting sanctions on Syria may prove to be a great decision in allying more of the civilized Arab world with him over the ayatollah as it was met with tremendous support by essentially every leader at his speech in Saudi. The same speech he extended the olive branch to Iran during, then followed up for weeks offering peace if they would negotiate. Which they chose not to do and are now being dealt with accordingly
