United States Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Thursday that US President Donald Trump "directed the most complex and secretive military operation in history," referring to strikes on Iranian nuclear sites and calling them a "resounding success." "Destroyed, defeated, obliterated - choose your word, this was a historically successful attack," Hegseth said. He cited various reports claiming the facilities were severely damaged, slamming the US media for allegedly not covering them.

How the ---- can Hegseth describe this raid as being "secretive" when Trump blabbed about it before it happened?

As if that mission plan had not been sitting on the planning shelf for decades, while being constantly tweaked.

I'm sure if you gave Lewzer a map and a crayon he couldn't explain how it worked.

As soon as Trumpy said it was "obliterated" I knew it wasn't.

Especially since there was no way a damage assessment could have been completed yet and I could still see buildings standing untouched in the satellite photos.

This is why it failed to take out the Iranian nucular program.

He shot his mouth off enough that they moved their machinery and uranium.

However, super genius thinks the uranium was too heavy to move without considering it was delivered via a bomb dropped from a plane over Japan.

Then he gave Iran permission to attack a US military base Oh, is 1 o'clock okay? I said, fine, sure, we moved people out, go right ahead,".

How would have Faux Nooz framed this if it was Biden?

Goober Comer would trip over himself in his haste to draw up impeachment papers.

Yup.

Nineteen thousand centrifuges.

How many of those have been destroyed by the US attack upon the facility?

And then, taking a different approach ...

Stuxnet?

And those were actual assassination attempts.
