One thing I want to stress about last night’s operation was the sheer complexity.
1/3 or maybe even 1/2 of the Israeli Air Force was in the sky last night, striking enemy targets 1000 miles from home.
All the aircraft and pilots came back without a scratch.
No simple feat.

Now, ask yourself: If you were a foreign leader and buyer of Russian military platforms, would you want to keep buying them after this?
I've said it before & I'll say it again: Israel has its mojo back. Its Iran strike has succeeded in weakening the regime — but what's next for the region? Fmr. Israeli NatSec Advisor Eyal Hulata is letting me pick his brain on today's @FDD Morning Brief. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
Will #Iran respond to #Israel's strike on regime military targets? If so, how and when? These are still unanswered questions, but I'm glad to be joined by award-winning Israeli journalist @Nadav_Eyal to help me ponder them. Grab a hot beverage & tune in. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
Amazing how this administration tip-toes around the sensitivities of the political “elite” in Lebanon, deferring to a feckless caretaker government that has been co-opted by Hezbollah.
US message reported sent to Islamic Republic of Iran: If you strike again, we will not be able to restrain the Israelis as we have done in the past.
Me: this is the right message. The question is whether Khamenei is hearing it.

Jump into your week w/ the @FDD Morning Brief. Today, we have a repeat offender — er, repeat guest — on the show: Sr. VP of @afpc @ilanberman. Excited to bring him back on to discuss the opposition in Iran. Maximum pressure + maximum support is the motto. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
Anything important happening in America today? Can’t tell from the headlines.
Crazy night last night. Lots to unpack. The big question here: what can we anticipate from U.S. foreign policy, esp. related to the #MidEast, going forward? Today, I'm speaking w/ @rolltidebmz of @cufi for his take. Tune in. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
