Iran lashing out and damaging refineries to an industry they also need was an impotent, childish lash out because they have no leverage over the Persian Gulf now. US and IDF have air superiority, Iranian naval presence is almost null, as much as AP, CNN, MSNBC want the mines to be a factor, and the drones are hap- hazard, and a pin prick tactically speaking.

Poorly executed? 5,000 targets prosecuted, over 125 aircraft destroyed, govt/mil communications severely degraded, zero airlift/support capacity, Naval and Ground force operations nil, not to mention Ayatollah eliminated and their nuclear ambitions also severely degraded.

Overall Iran finally put in its place and will continue to be. Stress on global oil and economies? Yes. Meltdown and impending doom coming due today regional conflict because less than 20% of the world's crude is being affected? Nope.

Direct action is messy, diplomacy is messy. It hasn't been 2 months. I love how the media and so many people are losing and asking why hasn't everything been solved already!? This operation hasn't been perfect?! Outrageous! The US is attacking a regime that murders 40K of its own people and sponsors terror proxies. Outrageous!
