Looks like the time has come for the assatollas to pay the piper.

The Iranians appear scared but now and I bet they are hoping this was it.  They need that nuke real bad so they aren't going to respond...they are hoping Israel does not now go after the nuke facilities.  20 sites were hit and all Israel's airplanes returned home safely whilst the Iranian air defenses were degraded significantly.

We sent the 480th Fighter Squadron from Germany to Saudi Arabia the day of the attack.  The 480th sent F-16 CJ's which specialize in a Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) role.  Looks like they had no time to rest before being put in the air if they assisted...which I think is likely. 

Now, why would we have supported this with all of the efforts our Administration have employed to prevent the Israeli response?  It appears the 2nd and 3rd waves attacked missile production and drone production sites and...has anyone noticed that the Iranians are suppling drones and some missiles to Russia for their Ukraine War?  So, based on the focus of the attack, I suspect target selection would be a reason for the Administration to support this attack.  That and Biden is still sore about being pushed aside and hopes this hurts Kamalalalala.

Now...was this a also prelude to an attack on Iranian nuclear facilities?   I hope so.  We will see.  If they do attack Iran's nuke sites will it be soon or after the inauguration in January?  In my mind if Kamalalallala wins they do it soon and if Trump is triumphant then they wait until after Trump is in.  And then again if Kamalalalalala gets in maybe they decide not to hit the Iranian nuclear sites at all.

PS:  Israel destroyed Iran's 20+/- vertical planetary batch mixers which manufacture solid rocket fuel.  An Israeli ground unit destroyed a secret fortified Iranian secret missile site ( in Masaf Syria! ) on September 9th which also provided intelligence materials identifying these Iranian domestic devices which were vulnerable to air attack.  Iran can downplay the attack all they want but they cannot now replenish their missile stocks.

Out of all the countries  you can f with.  Isreal is the very last one I would mess with.   They give no shots and don't let stuff go.

The U.S. will take a lot of crap from just about any country. Not Israel. They don't play around.
