Midnight Hammer is 'mission accomplished' but there's one big red flag
Operation Midnight Hammer destroyed Iran's advanced nuclear facilities with 7 stealth bombers in surprise weekend attack
By Rebecca Grant Fox News

The Middle East was teetering on the verge of nuclear catastrophe courtesy of Iran. Seven B-2 Spirit stealth bombers brought the region back from the edge this weekend.

President Donald Trump’s powerful strike in Operation Midnight Hammer on Saturday was a street-smart move that pulled the knife out of Iran’s hand.  "We retained the element of surprise," Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine said at a Pentagon briefing on Sunday. Yes, that’s the understatement of the year. Caine, an F-16 fighter pilot who flew combat in Iraq, was the right choice to be Trump’s top military adviser as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

For now, it's mission accomplished.  Iran’s most advanced nuclear facilities are entombed in rubble. The first U.S. strike to prevent an emergent nuclear power has succeeded.  And if the special smart fuses on the Massive Ordnance Penetrators did their job, a lot of expensive, complex machinery underground has been smashed to bits.

Reviewing 40 years of Iran’s mayhem and attacks on U.S. servicemembers, it’s clear to see why Iran could not ever be allowed to complete a nuclear weapon.  Iran does not believe in deterrence as we know it.  The Iranian possession of a nuclear bomb would have forced Israel to prepare options to use its own nuclear weapons. Midnight Hammer came just in time.

Nothing has been accomplished until the Mullahs have been removed from power in Iran permanently! Thank Jimmah CAAATA!

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
It was reported that quite a few trucks were moving equipment from one or more of these facilities, thus avoiding the destruction of said equipment.  It was also said that there is another nuclear site in Iran that remains untouched.

All of this plus the fact it is not possible to know with certainty that the operations hundreds of feet below the surface were actually destroyed, it is early to say what impact all those bombs had.  We will need to wait for HUMIT to provide those answers, which might just take months.

I do not see the Iranians behaving rationally.  Lunatics have the hardest time doing that.  So, I seriously doubt this is the last chapter in this saga!

I sincerely hope it isn't! I hope that saying bye bye to the Mullahs is the final chapter.
