MAKING IT PERSONAL:
The attacks hurt rank-and-file morale and drove some security forces to begin sleeping in their vehicles, mosques or other sports facilities, Israel’s assessment said.
Meanwhile, Israeli intelligence officials began placing calls to individual commanders, threatening them and their families by name if they didn’t stand aside in the event of an uprising, according to people familiar with the matter.
The Journal reviewed the contents of one call between a senior Iranian police commander and an agent of the Mossad, Israel’s foreign-intelligence service.
“Can you hear me?” a Mossad agent can be heard, speaking in Farsi. “We know everything about you. You are on our blacklist, and we have all the information about you.”
“OK,” the commander said in the recording.
“I called to warn you in advance that you should stand with your people’s side,” the Mossad agent said. “And if you will not do that, your destiny will be as your leader. Do you hear me?”
“Brother, I swear on the Quran, I’m not your enemy,” the commander said. “I’m a dead man already. Just please come help us.”
Stay tuned.

THE LEFT HAS ROOTED FOR AMERICA’S ENEMIES FOR BASICALLY MY ENTIRE LIFETIME:
I am a Democrat. I served in the Clinton administration. I did not vote for Donald Trump and am highly unlikely to support him or his acolytes in the future. I also have serious disagreements with many of the Trump administration’s domestic and foreign policies.
But it is…

WELL, GOOD: In an article on Robert Goddard, the New York Times admits an error:
The question was, would it actually work?
Goddard faced scorn and criticism from a variety of corners, including this newspaper.
In an editorial titled “A Severe Strain on Credulity,” writers of The New York Times said that Goddard “seems to lack the knowledge ladled out daily in high schools.” Rockets, the editorial claimed, would not work in the vacuum of space with nothing to push against.
The paper apologized — after humans landed on the Moon.
