Yeah, I think Brandon's right to use the term shaping operations.
We have to declaw the Iranian military threat to our forces.
The president said our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats
menacing activities that directly endanger the United States, our troops and our overseas bases and our allies.
So that's what we're doing right now and going after ballistic missile sites, going after surface to air missile sites, going after anti-ship cruise missile sites, anti-ballistic missile sites against our ships, all of those and their naval forces.
Obviously their air forces are no threat to us.
So I said last week when we were on, we talked about the difference between air superiority
building to air supremacy.
We're in that phase right now where we're building.
We've had our initial strikes.
We want to establish the ability to fly over Iran without the risk to our aircraft so that we can call down fires on any additional forces that try to generate these waves of missile attacks or drone attacks.
And so that's
what we're shaping towards.
And you asked, why was this happening now?
Well, I can tell you one reason it may be happening now is starting on the 4th of March in Beijing, we'll have the National People's Congress.
Xi Jinping and the Communist Party of China will be focused from 4 to 11 March
on their national people's congress and given all the purges and all the other things that's going on in china they're going to be diverted from getting involved with this at least for now they probably already have been involved but it's going to be very hard for them to insert themselves now we're running the cards in the table on this right now and rolling back the decades of military capabilities that the iranians have received from the russians and the chinese that is the objective right now
to then be able to do the follow on larger strikes that will be able to take out more of the forces that are used against the Iranian people.
So I would say President Trump picked the perfect time.
He used deception.
