This is consistent with the reporting from ABC, based upon Israeli sources, that these strikes had been practiced or simulated during the Biden administration. It was in the playbook as a first strike.

orrrr we were wrong about that axe throwing drunken idiot at the helmof the DoD after all. He might be, as his boss, playing 7D chess all the time and come up with such a grand plan just within hours so he did not even had to attend much of the discussions on when to strike.

The fact this was telegraphed and Iran likely saved key resources, likely means all this did was trigger escalation, waste weapons and airframe hours, give valuable intel on the B2 capability and risk US forces in the region

Of course it was. That’s our military’s job, practice and practice. Think up wars games, and go. I never feared for them, I do fear for everyone now.

All they had to tell Trump was that the attack would be called "Operation Midnight Hammer," and he was in. If they called it "Operation Trust Fund Halfwit Gets Suckered By Netanyahu," we would have attacked Taiwan just to prove he's no one's fool.

The issue is did they do any intelligence or due diligence to understand if they were still valid first strike sites The ineptitude of this administration tells me - NO And I’m sorry Israeli intelligence has been off their game for 5+ years - they couldn’t even grasp a planned domestic attack

I think this plan started to develop since 1999 when Neo Cons Project for a New American Century wrote a public letter to Clinton about the threat posed by Iran Dick Cheney prob put it in writing in 2002 He probably envies Trump that he couldn't do it when he was President

Its amazing how little people know about our military - you can go to DoD and find contingency plans for attacking every country. Its prudent readiness.

Bc only 1% of the US are veterans. Since the passing of the WW2 generation, only slightly higher are related to veterans. It's why so many can lie about their service- very few actually know combat vets and recognize imposters.

I'm not military & my father served in the Army in the 50s so no wartime experience. But I'm intelligent, can read, can reason (this lack, combined w/a disinterest of actually researching what you don't know) is a more likely cause for the current lvl of ignorance...on a plethora of subjects!

I wouldn't expect less from the military, or from the government in general. Although I wouldn't trust this administration itself to have contingency plans for everything.

It’s DoD outside of any admin. They are constantly planning for all sorts of contingencies. How or if those plans are used is impacted by the administration, current political situation, etc.

I think I read somewhere that the bombs used were specifically designed to hit Fordow in particular, after US and Israeli intelligence discovered its existence almost two decades ago.

So this was on the books, Biden & co had shopped and tuned it. Donny just pulled the trigger, and now wants to take credit for coming up with the whole thing. He won't take blame for any fallout from it though.

Makes total sense. The Biden Administration knew it had to deal with Iran and needed a military option, when diplomacy failed. And this might have been a lot more effective, if both Bibi and Krasnov were on the same page as to when the diplomacy option failed. But clearly they weren't.

Confirmed: The U.S. and Israel war-gamed this exact strike over a year ago. It wasn’t spontaneous — it was rehearsed. The operation used B-2s, decoys, and subs just like in the drills. Israel may not have expected it, but it was in the playbook.

Keep kicking Iran when they're down and nearly knocked out. Nettenmoron and Orange Jesus both are good at overplaying a good hand. They're hell bent on forcing Iran into a corner, life a caged animal, thinking they can force a regime change. This may end badly for everyone. #Iran #Israel #trump

Certainly a "playbook" should contain a full range of options which must be rehearsed/simulated in order to be viable. That does not mean that the Biden administration ever seriously considered calling that play and damn the consequences.
