I ordered a 'free' blue square pin-show of Israeli support. They'd like you to make a donation, of course. What I was looking for was how to get a bunch of those blue squares, wanted to give 'em out at the Sr. Cntr...wondering if I could also do that at walmart.

Faytuks News Δ @faytuks "Israel is not sharing its targeting with the U.S., so the U.S. does not know what form the Israeli retaliation will take or when it will happen. GOOD. It's THEIR country, THEIR sovereignty, THEIR people, THEIR land. We can't keep an invasion out of OUR COUNTRY; who are we to tell Israel what to do? |

🚨 BREAKING: IRAN CLEARS AIRSPACE AFTER ISRAELI STRIKE
Iran has promised an intense and brutal response to any attack on Iranian soil by Israel.
Tonight, multiple reports and U.S. officials have confirmed that the IDF has hit a site inside of Iran.
Moments later, Iran cleared the entire airspace and redirected all planes away from missile launch sites, likely in preparation to launch a response.

It sounds like Iran is denying that Israel did anything to them. Hopefully, all of this dies down.

S: "ISRAEL DESTROYED A NUCLEAR FACILITY"
🇮🇷IRAN: "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!"
🇺🇳UN ATOMIC WATCHDOG: "ALL IRANIAN NUCLEAR PLANTS ARE OK"
Senior American official:
"Three missiles were fired from Israeli warplanes outside Iran.
Israel targeted an air defense radar site near Isfahan, which is part of the defense of the Natanz nuclear facility.
The initial assessment is that the attack destroyed the site, but it is not final."

As far as both sides not being completely honest about what did or didn't happen, I was listening to a few people being interviewed about all this (former pentagon, NSA, State Dept., etc.) and in their opinion, that was a good thing, and I have to agree. If both sides are standing stoic and trying to save face that means they are not trying to throw gasoline on the fire.  |

I agree with your assessment to a point. I wouldn't call Israel's position as "stoic", I'd refer to it as a lesson to Iran that their air defense systems, such as they are, are useless against Israeli tactics and technology. They don't have to gloat, their point being made was aimed at the Ayatollah and the Mullahs that they just think they're capable of defending against Israel.
As to the target of the attack, the air base is very close to the Iranian nuclear facilities. That's a direct heads-up to the Iranians that if Israel had wanted to attack them their nuke facilities they could be glowing in the dark if Israel wished.
Just guessing, but the fact that Iran cleared their airspace would seem to indicate the Israelis slipped a few planes in amongst normal air traffic and went undetected. That would leave Iran with a problem. Do they restrict their airspace in the future to just absolutely know aircraft, or continue to leave themselves open to foreign aircraft that might be sending out bogus signals.
I'm siting here laughing and applauding the messages Israel sent, and the humbling lesson the Iranians have learned.
