President Barack Obama actually cut his Delaware beach vacation short and returned to the White House Saturday because of intel about events in the Middle East. The intel said that Iran was threatening to launch an attack on Israel, and news sources are saying it's happening.
CNN: Biden departed the beach "moments ago," just as Iran began its attacks on Israel.

Israel shutting down air space. As are several neighboring countries.

It’s absolutely insane that Iran is basically announcing they are about to launch a major attack and everyone is just sitting around and waiting for it as if it should be accepted and inevitable.
Donald Trump had Iran broke.

Joe Biden gave the Iran Regime hundreds of billions of dollars in sanctions relief, credit and cash.
Iran is now attacking Israel with Joe Biden’s money.
Everyone who voted for Biden helped fund Iran.

Follow my friend Amir who is giving live updates in Israel. He said the drones will take 4 hours to arrive. Israel will attempt to shoot them down. Not one Israeli will sleep tonight. Pray! Amir Tsarfati@beholdisrael

The Israeli counterstrike needs to be massive and devastating. Reestablish strategic deterrence.

BREAKING: Iran launches attack against Israel using dozens of drones, four U.S. and Israeli officials told me

There is almost no chance that an attack like this will actually do real harm to Israel unless they allow it. Why might they allow it? To give them justification to attack Iranian nuclear sites.

Hopefully this is one of those half-assed attacks Iran launches to save face -- as they did after soleimani. Iranians are willing fight to the last Palestinian. Not so much the last mullah. (At least until they have nukes)
