When Witkoff offered free nuclear fuel etc. for peaceful purposes if they would give up their nuclear enrichment program, and they refused, that was a clear signal of their intentions of having nuclear weapons. The world can thank Trump and Israel for stopping the religious fanatics ruling Iran from having nukes, and long range missiles that could threaten the US, that would be North Korea X 1000.
I doubt if we will ever stop terrorist attacks, but the tenacles of the octopus such as Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis, and others, should be severely degraded once the head of the octopus is crushed, hopefully Iran will once again become a peaceful neighbor to those in the Middle East and not a threat to the entire region.

Virginia mosque honors ayatollah: The leaders of Manassas Mosque in Virginia have made known that their loyalty is to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, not the United States of America. In a post on social media, the mosque extended its "condolences" on the "martyrdom" of "our leader." Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution outlines treason: "Treason against the United States shall consist only ... in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort." In the past, a pledge of loyalty to an enemy of the U.S. has not been interpreted as treason absent other overt actions, although red-blooded Americans may be wondering if that needs to change.
“Iran built the most comprehensive civilian surveillance network in the Middle East. Cameras on every street. Facial recognition at universities. License plate readers that automatically fined women for removing their hijab in their own cars. A mobile app called Nazer that let citizens report uncovered women. Drones at beaches. The infrastructure that killed Mahsa Amini in September 2022 and crushed the Woman, Life, Freedom uprising that followed.
Israel hacked nearly all of it.
According to the Financial Times, citing two people familiar with the matter, nearly all of Tehran’s traffic cameras had been compromised for years. The footage was encrypted and transmitted to servers in Tel Aviv and southern Israel. One camera near Pasteur Street proved especially valuable. It was angled in such a way that Israeli analysts could see where members of Khamenei’s security detail parked their personal cars. Through that single camera angle, Israeli intelligence built files on the bodyguards’ home addresses, work schedules, commuting routes, and which senior officials they were assigned to protect.
Unit 8200 used algorithms to process billions of data points into what intelligence officers call a “pattern of life.” A person familiar with the process described it as “an assembly line with a single product: targets.”
“We knew Tehran like we know Jerusalem,” an Israeli intelligence official told the Financial Times. “And when you know a place as well as you know the street you grew up on, you notice a single thing that’s out of place.”
On February 28, when intelligence confirmed Khamenei would attend a morning meeting at his compound near Pasteur Street, the operation entered its final phase. Israel disrupted approximately 12 cellular antennas in the area, causing phones to appear “busy” when dialed. Khamenei’s security detail could not receive warnings. Israeli aircraft fired 30 precision munitions. The strike was carried out in daylight for tactical surprise.
Former Mossad official Sima Shine told the Financial Times that Israel’s strategic focus on Iran dates to a 2001 directive from Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. Twenty-five years of patient intelligence collection culminated in a single Saturday morning.
Here is the part that should stay with you.
The cameras Israel hacked were not military installations. They were the regime’s domestic surveillance apparatus. The same cameras that tracked women who removed their hijab. The same system that sent automated text messages to women in Isfahan accusing them of “improper veiling.” The same infrastructure the Guidance Patrol used to build digital dossiers on Iranian women and girls for the crime of showing their hair.
Israel turned the tools of the morality police into the tools of the regime’s destruction.
There is a viral claim that after the assassination, Mossad wiped the morality police’s databases on Iranian women. No Tier 1, 2, or 3 source confirms this. It traces to a single unverified social media post. I will not present it as fact.
But the verified reality is extraordinary enough. The regime built a surveillance state to control its own women. A foreign intelligence service co-opted that state to kill the man who ordered it built. The cameras that watched women became the cameras that watched Khamenei die.” - Shanaka Perera

The US military has destroyed 17 Iranian ships, including a submarine, and struck nearly 2,000 targets in Iran, the commander of the US Central Command said on Tuesday.
