Whatever it is, the objectives seem a bit unclear.
Clear as mud, methinks.
Iran's longest-range ballistic missiles reach about 1,500 miles.
Enough to hit targets across the Middle East and some parts of Europe.

I think it goes from destroying Iran's nuclear ambitions, to regime change, to destroying it's ICBMs.
I think the top leadership need to have a coherent single reason instead of each giving different reasons.

Vance says the clear objectives are destroying their nuclear program we already destroyed.
Rubio says it’s because Israel was going to attack so we followed.

Officially for America it's about no nuclear program and their missile threat.
Officially for Israel it's about regime change.
Unofficially for America you know everyone wants regime change too.
But they won't make that an official objective because if it doesn't happen then
they will have to say that t heir objective failed.

The way Iran will be looking at the situation, missile-wise.
I imagine it will amount to use them or lose them right now.
Because they will simply be tracked down, targeted, and destroyed.
It's not really about missiles through.
And if it was decapitating the leadership makes little sense.
It's clearly about regime change.
Hence, the assassination and hijacking of TV channels for propaganda purposes.

I thought their nuclear program was "obliterated"?

With this action already a polling disaster, if the public knew the objectives, it would not make those numbers any better.

All the handwringing when so far it's going extremely better than anybody could have had a right to hope for. WE are just a few days in.
Ya nervous nellies, this isn't some Ukrainian/NATO cluster f---
Yes the missile and drone impacts are low, but it's still too much.
Once enough launchers are lost, there will be more planes to go drone hunting. It's a numbers game...

Sit back and watch history in the making...
As someone else said, Azerbaijan is going WTH
Quote:MarioNawfal
Reza Pahlavi is speaking directly to Iran's ethnic minorities.
Kurds. Azeris. Lors. Bakhtiaris. The communities the Islamic Republic has oppressed hardest for 47 years.
He's promising separation of religion and state. Equal citizenship. Cultural preservation.
This is a man building a coalition for the morning after.
"We stand on the threshold of this regime's collapse."
He's not waiting for an invitation anymore.
