Israel just took out the projected new leader of Hezbollah...they are on a run!
-
With a high-power SCOPE!

Who would they hit? While Israel has used the current conflict to go after some high level folks in Hamas and Hezzbolah, going after Ali Khamenei is a whole other level that could make the conflict go high order. The Biden administration is already holding Israel back when it comes to striking the nuclear facilities, I doubt they would clear them to go after top Iranian leadership. However, if they pull the string and show direct help (aside from the obvious funding), from Iran to Hezzbolah on the drone assassination attempt on Netanyahu it might be a different story. Interestingly Israel's verbal response - Netanyahu said "Hezbollah would pay a "heavy price" for launching a drone targeting his house...zero mentions of Iranian assistance. I think (and hope), the response will be measured, military facilities/capabilities and some oil production. I think I've mentioned it before but for those looking for a better understanding of the Iranians and their thinking, I highly recommend the book "The Persian Puzzle." While there is a rarely a single definitive book that provides a complete view of a country or situation, this book does a great job of walking recent history to gain a some perspective on how Iranian thinking has been shaped by constant tension with the U.S. starting with the fall of the shah and the seizure of the American embassy in Tehran in 1979.

They just finished paying Taggert....I wish someone would pay me $30M to NOT be their coach. Correct, got excited seeing both Alabama and OSU get beat. Not to worry, ESPN and ABS will find a way to keep 6 SEC multi-loss teams in the playoff.

Another great day of college football. Army AND Navy both undefeated and in the top 25! Alabama goes down on the...I mean to the Cocks...maybe this will take them out of the top 10....doubt it with the SEC bias. Georgia punked Texas...again the SEC bias they will probably just swap positions in the top 4. UCF looked stout but fell short against Iowa State who should be getting more press. LSU is peaking at the right time. Nebraska and Michigan continue to slide back to mediocrity. Miami got past a very dangerous Louisville offense in another cardiac classic...The U's Defense is definitely their weakness. Next week is FSU, I think we are in danger...FSU is a wounded animal and those kids will rise to this game...they all know and played against each other in high school. Great time of year.

Can't get the local dealer to answer my e-mails/calls. Looks to be a great suppressor.

You do realize we have an edit function...

You didn't watch the video...He was alive but badly wounded when the drone went in. He weakly threw something at the drone so they backed up and a tank put a round into the room which ventilated his brain.

Watch the video above...during Apollo NASA briefed progress to the community quarterly. At the end the wrote a report telling the community how they did it, no one bothered to read it, instead the decided to completely reinvent the wheel.

If they can do all these new things like on orbit cryogenic refueling. Boeing can't even build a command module that works as well as a 50+ year old Apollo.

He is so narcissistic he can't help but throw inflammatory insults. If he would just say "my policies worked" (mostly), we will repeat them, have a nice day then shut his freaking pie hole.

Amen brother....340 million people in this country and we are down to these two clowns.

Did you hear the behind the scenes? She showed 15 minutes late and curtailed the agreed upon time. If she can't handle Brett Bair on Foxnews how is she going to stand toe to toe with Vlad or Xi Jinping?

Meanwhile Elon caught a booster in flight with a tower today on the FIRST try. That was AMAZING!

A lot of fun games yesterday, what will the polls do? #1 Texas dominated the Sooners. #3 Oregon knocks off #2 Ohio State. Great game, OSU won't fall far in the polls. #4 Penn State wins but they let unranked USC take them to overtime and got lucky with the field goal miss. #5 Georgia struggles against 1-5 Miss State. AND Kirby shoves the Miss St Quaterback!!! #7 Alabama struggles again. I thought the Gamecocks were gonna pull it off. #8 Tennessee struggles against Florida but pulls it out in OT. #9 Ole Miss falls to #13 LSU. #10 Clemson dominated Wake Forrest despite a fast start by Wake, Dab0 engineered a blistering 2nd quarter with 28 points. I am sure the SEC bias will keep many of them in the top 10/25 despite the losses and struggles against unranked opponents.

I am pulling for Oregon but what a classless act by Traeshon Holden...He spit in the OSU players face. Glad he was ejected, he should be suspended as well. Filthy animal!

I am a total space geek and have been reading up on the upcoming mission back to the moon. There is some SERIOUS turmoil in the community over the decisions that have been made. The orbital mechanics are VERY different and is many ways, more risky mainly because the ARTEMIS does not have enough thrust (Delta V), to conduct the mission the same way as Apollo using a low lunar orbit. Instead, they will use a near-rectilinear halo orbit (NHRO), which means there will be long periods that if something happens on the surface, they will have to wait for the return vehicle to come back in range. Apollo Flight Plans ARTEMIS Flight Plans NRHO Flight path. The profile requires we launch into earth orbit, then launch a series of "tankers" to fuel the mission. Interestingly we have NEVER done cryogenic refueling in space. More concerning, we are two years from launch and they still don't know how many tankers they have to launch for this mission. The latest NASA estimate is 15!!! Thankfully they are not using the Boeing Starliner capsule, but Boeing is very involved with other parts of the project. Cool to see us reaching out again but sucks that we can't do what we did 55 years ago!

Far more capable than Waltz...I really wish Trump had picked Haley. Policy wise she is more centrist, she could easily be POTUS tomorrow and vote wise she appeals to a broader base...IMHO this election would be a runaway win for Trump at this point.

Israel with the ultimate game of F@ck Around and Find Out.
