Israel strikes Iran

Some people posted a couple distant webcam shots in the top comment in that Twitter thread.

 

Question for you, is a national broadcasting system seen as a legitimate military target? I assume so but I could see arguments going the other way.

 

It is if being used for military purposes, which I would assume the Iranians are doing. I'm wondering if the Israelis are starting to think about regime change seriously at this point. They have total air superiority over Iran right now and could probably start interdicting ground maneuver units if necessary.

 

Was an annoying voice so good they took it off the air

 

Israel was just helping out with the broadcast with special effects. Immediately before the strike she said: “This is the sound of aggression against the homeland.”

 

I believe these were some of the last operational F-14 Tomcats.

 

Oh no!! How will will Maverick and the forgettable guy manage to get home if the F-14 isn’t there? Things that will keep up at night…

 

At this point, they could probably walk to the coast since there is not an Iranian aircraft in the sky.

 

Tom doesn’t walk! He RUNS..
(I am not a fan by the way… )

 

I think this is a tweet from someone we have discussed in the past.

 

I was in Iran when those F-14s were delivered

 

Israel is really going to town on Iran's missile launchers. I think Iran has maybe 2 more days they can launch those large barrages and that is about it. After that I think there only good chance to get any big hits will be a hypersonic missile but not sure how many of them they have left. It would be nice if there were some moderate types in the military that would overthrow the current leader. I think the majority of Iranians want things to go back to like they were in the 70s without strict Islamic control.

 

Footage of the woman blabbering the news then running when the Iranian news station is bombed was hilarious to me. She went from “lecturing the infidels” to “screw this, I’m outta here” in record time.

 

Suing for a ceasefire or peace to they can regroup and come at Israel again? That could go off and on for years.

 

Agree. Minor correction. The missiles that Iran has been launching aren't hypersonic missiles, they're large ballistic missiles.

 

Looks like Tucker Carlson is now saying that Trump is no longer America first with helping Israel
