OVERWHELMING FIREPOWER: The Israeli Air Force has hit over 1,100 Iranian assets in hundreds of strikes in Iran since Friday, IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin says in a press conference. “We are operating systematically to neutralize the nuclear threat,” he says, adding that the strikes are “deepening the significant damage” caused to Iran’s ballistic missiles and air defenses.

Pro-Israel military analyst John Spencer: “There are many ways to get the job done (destroy Iran’s nuclear sites)… we should all agree it has to be done.”

New satellite imagery of the Diego Garcia airbase – the closest one used by the US closest to Iran – appears to show 2 B-52 Stratfortress bombers and several transport aircraft. Of note, the only plane that can carry the bombs necessary to rip through the Fordo nuclear installation is the B-2 Spirit stealth bomber, which isn’t at the base.

Sen. Ted Cruz: “If Iran gets a nuclear weapon, I think the odds are high that we would find out with a mushroom cloud over New York City or Los Angeles.”
