But once President Trump launched Operation Epic Fury, press coverage went cynical. Skepticism is one thing. An objective press should question authority, but what we have today is a press that doesn’t question authority. None dared question cloth masks, social distancing and just why three funerals for George Floyd were safe while I couldn’t hold one for my son.
"America and Israel began Operation Epic Fury (Rising Lion in Hebrew) by assassinating the Supreme Leader and seven or eight of Iran’s top generals. Then quickly and methodically the two destroyed its air defenses, its air force and its navy. The attacks continue as the duo destroy Iran’s army and its morality police who serve as a Gestapo for an Islamic terrorist regime.
"I am in awe of the Pentagon’s and IDF’s systematic destruction of a rogue regime without simultaneously destroying Tehran and the very people we are trying to save. R&D spending has yielded weaponry that is so precise in bombing that lives are spared. I am also overwhelmed by Mossad’s intelligence capabilities.
"The Fall of the Wall has begun. 19 days into Operation Epic Fury, Eli David tweeted with video, “Iran’s sun and lion flag has been raised on Iran’s embassy in Copenhagen. Several diplomats at the embassy, including the ambassador himself according to some reports, have applied for asylum in Denmark.”
"Yes, there have been civilian deaths—but far fewer than the 40,000 protesters the Islamic Republic killed in January.
"Ah, January seems years ago. Back then, Mark Theissen of the Washington Post wrote:
There is no downside to striking the regime. Trump has already done so twice, and each time, Iran was unable or unwilling to retaliate. Indeed, the Soleimani strike came at a time when Iran was much stronger than it is today. Since then, Iran has suffered repeated blows that have left it weaker than at any time since the 1979 revolution." . . . More...
