Trump Launched Iran Strikes Despite Intel Doubting His Missile Threat Claims
U.S. intelligence estimates Iran could develop intercontinental ballistic missiles by 2035 if it pursues space launch vehicle technology adaptation, contrasting with claims of imminent threat.
- On Saturday, Israel and the United States launched Operation Lion's Roar, and Netanyahu released a recorded message saying the attacks will let Iranians `take their fate into their own hands` and that the operation is 'much more powerful' than a 12-day war in June.
- To halt Iran's alleged programs, Netanyahu says they aim to end the threat from the Ayatollah regime in Iran, citing Iran's plans to rebuild nuclear and missile capabilities and arm terrorist proxies, according to Israeli officials.
- Operationally, the IDF says it strikes Revolutionary Guards and Basij facilities and, with U.S. forces, ballistic missile sites; Israeli citizens were told to follow Home Front Command guidance.
- Israeli officials warned the operation will continue as long as necessary and may carry heavy costs, while Netanyahu said millions of Iranians have taken to the streets and he envisions a future of Israel and a free Iran cooperating.
- In framing the campaign, Netanyahu emphasized full coordination with the United States and invoked Purim and ancient Persia imagery to highlight its historic significance.
