Day 153

1 documented win

Day 153Defense

U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites

The win

B-2s hit Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan with massive ordnance penetrators. The administration said the nuclear program was devastated and that U.S. troops were not occupying Iran.

For Americans

A nuclear-armed Iran is a worse world for gas prices, for Israel, and for anyone who flies commercial over the Gulf. Destroying the sites is the non-proliferation argument in steel.

For people abroad

Israelis, Gulf civilians, and anyone living under Iranian proxy rockets just watched the enrichment sites get hit — without an American occupation. That is the rarest kind of military help: a threat removed, and nobody's son left holding a city.
