Trump not being the smartest man in the world probably expected Israel to have this done in a day or two, easy Trump Win. Now Iran is fighting back and Israel is crying for help... Trump doesn't care either way, but what Trump does care about is a Trump Win... one that makes him look strong, and a leader... there is no option on the table for Trump to have a Win at all.

Honestly, looking at the logistics: Israel is 2000km away from the closest point to Iran. That’s only going one way.

The F-35 has a max range of 2000km (that may be with external tanks which hinders its stealth), that’s with no combat and they only have 40 of them. Each F-35 will need to refuel in air to make that round trip, that’s basically for sure.

Logistically, that’s a tough run with a lot of refueling and constant reloading. Not to mention you can’t quickly deploy them so fast back-to-back, you need thorough maintenance because you don’t want to crash one near enemy territory. Those maintenance crews are additionally going to be exhausted, after a single week. It’s not a car, those things need a monstrous amount of inspection, diagnostics, checking it’s coating thoroughly, etc. It’s 140+ hours of labor per crew for a single F-35 flying that mission. Longer if their air base has been attacked.

Not quite sure I buy the “air superiority over the region” claim (at least not over Iran) or if it really even means that much at this point because most time is spent making the flight. I’m sure any refueling planes can additionally be targeted because they’re not stealthy.

Running this on A.I, the rating of difficulty it gives these missions is a solid 8.5-9.5/10 for the IAF and that includes with F-35’s. This is nowhere like Ukraine and Russia distance. They got to fly over four countries to strike a target in Iran, then fly all the way back.

I don’t know why more people aren’t bringing that up. It may seem like a straight-forward mission, but implementation and logistics are ugly af.
Perfect time to bring my detailed breakdown back :sas1:
Same thing with Hɛzbollah bein infiltrated.

The key figures in their army being assassinated most likely permanently disabled and compromised it to no return, as it allows lower ranking Mōssad to climb the ranks.

This along with the lsraeli occupation of Syria allowed the current attack to happen, because the Hermon mountain was a blind spot for lsrael because of its height.

On top of Assad’s air defense at the time making it impossible to launch such an attack, because it was too far and too risky.

lsrael overthrowing Assad and immediately destroying their air defense and taking Hermon mountain was to remove their own blind spot with radars on Mt Hermon to look deep into Lebanon and Syria.

Cutting off Hɛzbollah’s trade route with Iran.
While also allowing their stealthjets to fly deep into Syria with a tankerjet and attack Iran without running out of fuel.

It was a longterm play.

Israeli army says more missiles fired from Iran​


The military has called on people in Israel to go to shelters as defence systems work to intercept the missiles.
A short while ago, Iran’s Fars news agency reported that bunker-busting drones were used to target Israel.

What does the IAEA say about Iran having nuclear weapons?​


Israel, Trump and some European officials have repeatedly commented on Iran being “weeks away” from building a nuclear weapon.
This is what Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, told Al Jazeera earlier this week:
“We did not find, in Iran, elements to indicate that there’s a systematic plan to build a nuclear weapon. We have not seen elements to allow us inspectors to affirm that there was a nuclear weapon being manufactured or produced somewhere in Iran.”

Palestine Red Crescent Society says operating field hospital in Khan Younis​


The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) says that it has started operating a field hospital in Khan Younis in southern Gaza.
The PRCS says that the facility includes 60 beds, two operating rooms, an emergency department, a laboratory, and an x-ray department, with hopes to expand inpatient capacity with four intensive care beds.
“On its first day, the hospital witnessed a large turnout of residents, receiving dozens of cases that received immediate medical care and performing three successful surgeries, reflecting the urgent need for such interventions in the region,” the group said in a social media post.
Throughout the war in Gaza, rights groups say Israeli forces have systematically targeted medical workers and facilities.
