A ceasefire.

To be broken in 3, 2, 1 …

So, what have we learned?

Iran is a lot more powerful than many people thought.
Western air defense systems aren’t very effective.
Who knew those little Iranian lawnmower-engined dorito drones could get all the way to Israel?
Hypersonic missiles are invulnerable and very frightening.
Tehran now knows which missiles in its arsenal are most effective and which most effectively soak up the enemy’s air defense and will build accordingly
Tehran’s decision to follow the missile-based armament route is vindicated. Suvorov: “Fight the enemy with the weapons he lacks“; Sun Tsu: “avoid strength and strike weakness“. `Others will notice.
Israel has used up the sleeper cells and intelligence penetration that it had built up in Iran.
and

My predictions.

The damage in Israel will be much greater and much more effective than we have been told.
In Iran, not so much.

Now comes the Sunday morning bombings of Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan. The White House insists that all were obliterated and that Iran’s nuclear program was wiped out. Only one teeny, tiny problem… none of the satellite imagery supports that claim. Before Sunday, we knew where Iran’s enriched uranium was located and IAEA inspectors had access to the three sites. Now? Iran removed the enriched uranium to a classified site and is moving to end IAEA inspections of Iran’s nuclear program.

Way to go Trump!! Instead of ending Iran’s quest for a nuclear weapon — which Iran shelved 22 years ago — Donald Trump has given Iranian hardliners more proof that the only way Iran can be secure in the future is to manufacture nuclear warheads.

While Trump is desperately trying to take credit for these developments, the ceasefire happened in spite of him, not because of his actions. I suspect that Russia, with an assist from China, made this happen. The real story is that Israel caved. Notwithstanding the massive pro-Israel propaganda campaign claiming that Iran was crumpling under Israel’s assault, Iran’s bevy of ballistic and cruise missiles wreaked havoc on Israel and caused significant damage. This is a major defeat for Netanyahu. Let’s hope he is quickly ushered out of office.

UPDATED: The tweet stating that Iran denied the ceasefire has been removed from X.

I believe Israel conspired with Johnson to kill JFK. Israel attacked the USS Liberty and controls Congress. This is not Biblical: it is evil. Listen not to warmongers and evil governments. Pray to God and listen to His guidance and gospel.

We are being led down the path to WWIII.

From Vox Day

Vice-President Vance: We did not attack the nation of Iran. We did not attack any civilian targets. We didn’t even attack military targets outside of the three nuclear weapons facilities.

US Vice President J.D. Vance does not support his country’s involvement in the conflict between Israel and Iran, Reuters has reported, citing two informed sources.

Trump, Vance, and all the newly-converted neoclowns aren’t MAGA. They’re MIGA and now the whole world knows it. Trump has made the mistake of thinking that just because he jumped in front of the parade, the parade will go wherever he wants to go.

They’re all confirmed to be the owned property of Clown World. No matter how they spin and produce their own magic word spells, it’s not going to fool anyone who genuinely wants to make America great again, because foreign wars on behalf of AIPAC and Israel are exactly what has turned America into a pale and weak shadow of what made it great in the first half of the 20th century.

The stealth jet squadron slipped into enemy skies, moving into attack formation at ‘high altitude and high speed’, with lighter, more mobile F-22 fighter jets sweeping in front of the B-2s to shield them from any surface-to-air or air-to-air fire. There was none. Not a single shot was fired at any of the aircraft or warships involved in Midnight Hammer from the beginning of the operation to its end.

And that wasn’t suspicious at all? Nothing has been able to fly safely over Ukraine or Russia for the last three years, but USAF jets are just so gosh darn sneaky that Iran didn’t even lift a finger to try to stop them…

Sounds like another green flag to me.

Simplicius has reached a similar conclusion: Shayrat Redux? Trump’s ‘Invisible’ Fleet Leaves Mirage of ‘Devastation’ in Iran

Indeed, there has been what appears to be a certain amount of excessive bluster and over-the-top playacting of late.
