So, the planes returned to base and Trump announced: “Tonight, I can tell the world: the strikes were a remarkable military success. Key uranium enrichment facilities in Iran have been completely and permanently destroyed.”
And then, without pause: “Iran, the troublemaker in the Middle East, must now make peace. If it does not, future attacks will be much more extensive.” But why bomb a country that has nothing left? Let it lie there and die. Or do the adherents of the Shiite atomic bomb still have something left?
Let’s pay attention to a report in The Wall Street Journal citing an American official: the Trump administration has notified Iran that the strikes on its nuclear facilities are a one-time act, not the beginning of a “war aimed at regime change.” Defense Secretary Pete Hagert said the same thing during a press conference in response to the first question from a journalist. It looks like the games we have written about more than once – notifying of a strike in the hope of a modest response and the conflict dying down. Bomb a little and go away.
An important detail: according to the Pentagon, the B-2s flew for many hours across the Atlantic and the Mediterranean from Missouri. This means that the radars of the Russian Navy’s permanent operational connection in the Mediterranean Sea saw them. According to the list, there are currently enough ships in the squadron capable of doing this – the bombers flew right through their order. No secrecy will help here.
Did Vladimir Putin want to warn his Iranian allies (according to the recently signed agreement)? If he did, then the Iranian command had at least three hours at its disposal. But no one was waiting for the B-2s in the skies over Fordow. Or maybe they were waiting, but chose to do nothing. No specific details about the extent and nature of the damage to the facility near Fordow were provided at the emergency press conference held by the US military. For now, I consider the destruction of the underground plant unproven.
Therefore, it is interesting to know which smart guys helped the US president choose the date to start the war with Iran. After all, it was possible to attack a day earlier or later. Nevertheless, there are symbols in history. To stage a solemn bombing on the day Napoleon and Hitler attacked Russia is a politically rash move. Everything looks ominous now. Well, are the centrifuges intact? It’s turning into some kind of vaudeville.
This whole situation feels like a tense game of chess where the real moves are hidden beneath the surface. The idea of bombing, warning, and then hoping for just a small reaction seems more like a show than a strategy with real resolution. The political timing makes you wonder if it’s all carefully orchestrated or just reckless posturing. It’s hard not to feel a mix of disbelief and concern about what’s really going on behind the headlines and if this is just the beginning of something much bigger. 😕
So basically, this reads like the world’s messiest game of Risk with real explosions and a touch of political bingo. Imagine picking the worst possible day to drop bombs just to get a historical drama award—next thing you know, someone’s writing a sitcom about it. Also, can someone explain how bombers fly thousands of miles but still can’t keep it a secret? Spy agencies out here looking like confused parents at a teenager’s Halloween party 🎭🕵️♀️.
