Israel took advantage of a window of opportunity - and it was right not to miss it. Iran was vulnerable: its proxies had been degraded (Hezbollah, Hamas, Assad’s regime), and its own air defenses - like the S-300 batteries - had already been taken out in previous Israeli strikes.

Another wave of attacks apparently launched out of Israel. This is going to take days, maybe weeks. Meantime, more details emerging from last night. Israel pre-positioned drones for last night’s attacks, not unlike what we saw recently from Ukraine in Russia. Remarkably similar.

Why is Israel's attack legitimate and legal? I explain below: Israel's strikes on Iranian nuclear and military targets are legally justified under international law's right to self-defense. Iran has directly attacked Israel twice in 2024 - launching over 300 drones and missiles

"Ali Khamenei and the IRGC have lost; the regional status quo they established is finished."

Nothing says "anti-war" like "Burn Tel Aviv to the ground!"

Grateful today, and everyday, for our fighting men and women. 🇺🇸
