Why the strike on Iran was legal, overdue, and a strategic earthquake.

As I write this on Saturday night, there is still a lot going on, and as such I’ll throw myself on the mercy of our readers for whatever has gone out of date between its writing and your reading.

It’s a very fluid situation.

But in what looks like a very, very successful joint operation between the Israeli Defense Forces and the U.S. Navy and Air Force, a significant decapitation strike has greatly degraded the Iranian regime — including harvesting some 40 top leaders of the Iranian regime, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, whose death has sparked worldwide celebrations from Iranians and Iranian expatriates.

Pakistanis in Karachi reportedly decided it would be a great idea to attack the US Consulate there due to US/Israeli strikes on Iran.

Ding dong, the Ayatollah is dead and the whole world should be celebrating.

While the Iranians were denying the death of Supreme Leader Ali Hosseini Khamenei throughout Saturday, the evidence points to his much-welcome demise.

Anti-communist, pro-Trump Cuban demonstrators chant “Khamenei is a terrorist” at protesters opposing American and Israeli military action against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Both rallies happened to coincide outside the US Consulate, creating a tense, unexpected standoff.

How fitting that the US and Israel finally retaliated against 47 years of aggression by the regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran during the week of the Biblical Purim Festival.

Then, roughly 2,300 years ago, Haman, viceroy to Persia’s King Ahasuerus, threw a lot (“pur”, plural “purim”) to determine the date by which he would kill all the Jews in the empire. This plan’s successor sits (or sat) in Tehran’s Palestine Square: a “doomsday clock” counting down the minutes until Israel is supposed no longer to exist: 2040, to be exact.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday morning that Operation Epic Fury has already eliminated at least 48 senior Iranian officials, including the former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

Speaking with Fox News Senior White House Correspondent Jacqui Heinrich, President Trump said that the United States has a specific list of priority targets remaining after dozens were taken off the board during the opening salvo of the joint U.S.-Israeli military operation on Saturday.

At least three ships have been attacked near the Strait of Hormuz, as Iran continues to launch strikes across the Middle East in response to an ongoing attack against it by the US and Israel.

Two vessels have been struck, and an “unknown projectile” was reported to have “exploded in very close proximity” to a third, the UK Maritime Trade Operations Centre (UKMTO) said.

Iran has warned ships not to pass through the strait, which carries about 20% of the world’s oil and gas.

🚨 IRAN IS SHOOTING IN ALL DIRECTIONS
Israel. Bahrain. UAE. Cyprus….
And now… themselves.

YES, Iran just attacked a tanker from its own sanctioned “shadow fleet” in the Strait of Hormuz. The vessel caught fire and began sinking.

20 crew evacuated. 4 injured.
