Thanks--this is a gem. Fabulous summation and thank you immensely for calling the media out: "the filthy defeatism of Israeli media is an absolute disgrace. " It is. I think the people who think of themselves as "journalists" (they're not- professional journalism is dead) think being oppositional defiant is a calling.

Don't agree with everything, however, well said. Articulated.

Thank you.

Thank you for your article that perfectly sums up the 12-day war in Iran. As insignificant as it may be, this European stands with you and your brave country Israel.

Iran already had shortages of electricity and water before the war, thanks to clerical rule. Teheran averages 2 hours a day of electricity outages.

The infrastructure that could have been destroyed but wasn't is Iran's 5 oil refineries, which provide 80% of domestic needs.

If I had read about this operation in a spy novel, complete with secret Mossad drone bases in the outskirts of Teheran, I would have dismissed it as far-fetched.

Great summary.
