Both Putin and Xi Jinping have remained silent over Iran, even though the op was telegraphed for weeks neither sent significant reinforcements. By contrast the US sent the equivalent of a major national air force to the theater in naval assets alone.
Russia has been bled too…

President Trump:
To the great proud people of Iran, I say tonight that the hour of your freedom is at hand.
Stay sheltered. Don't leave your home. It's very dangerous outside.
Bombs will be dropping everywhere. When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours… pic.twitter.com/k9J8n5mH6t

Targeted killings of top officials and a massive cyberattack; seems like the goal is to weaken the regime and enable a revolution. Now let’s see if the Iranian people can step up.
Meanwhile, among the West’s useless class, things are going as usual:
Iran just killed 60,000 people, many of them feminist student fighters raped so badly their wombs allegedly had to be destroyed.
None of you journ-o-list leftist clowns gave a shit until Israel, the GOP, etc could be invoked. Doesn't it at least make you feel bad during evening… https://t.co/UFP7kJhJ0a

This fuckwit. The "brains" behind Obama's disastrous foreign policy forays including the Iran Nuclear Deal. https://t.co/Y0IpG17vth

Mehdi Hasan crashing out, Ben Rhodes weeping, Milo praying to “Allah,” the Young Turks seething.
What a last few hours.
