I pray this adventure ends with Iran at peace, with something like a democracy in place, and a measure of religious freedom.
Persians are smart, resourceful, and nationalist. They can be contributors to our world.
For now, the butchers bill for us is 7 killed in action, 150 wounded.
And, as expected, with the conflict going into weeks, the scope of pending domestic terror attacks has broadened, now to include drones:
“The FBI warned police departments in California in recent days that Iran could retaliate for American attacks by launching drones at the West Coast, according to an alert reviewed by ABC News.
“We recently acquired information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United State Homeland, specifically against unspecified targets in California, in the event that the US conducted strikes against Iran,” according to the alert distributed at the end of February.”
Communications intelligence supports the expectation of terror cells activated within the US:

Whats that mean? Consider the consequence of not a single shooter but deadly activity by 5 four men elements in 5 locations at once in the same city. Critical infrastructure and soft targets destroyed. A body count the likes of which we've not seen since 9/11.
And, 'Unrestricted Warfare' by Iran to include hacking commercial targets - https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/iran-appears-conducted-significant-cyberattack-014232843.html
Unfortunately this phase of war appears to have started when Bibi wanted it to (the war itself began with the Mullahs sporting terrorist attacks on Americans decades ago) - not after we had adequately identified existing Quds and Hizballah cells in our country and hardened key infrastructure sites. That may have been a terrible mistake.
If you are in a major city have a plan to visit relatives elsewhere. For most of us, have at least a 30 day supply of food, water, meds, and keep your powder dry. Gods will will be done, and any of us may be His tool to protect the innocent.

UPDATE: Instead of the endless marxist BS from CNN and the old networks, or the zionist rah rah stuff from Fox, a good source of news on the war is India's media:
UPDATE: While the 'kinetic' (BOOM) and 'nonkinetic' (hacking) attacks on IRGC and thug paychecks is effective there will be similar strikes on US banking and welfare systems. Augment the 30 day supply noted above with several hundred dollars in $20s.
