Israel Takes Control of Iran’s Skies—a Feat That Still Eludes Russia in Ukraine.
 +
Power mismatch in Israel-Iran war shows importance of air superiority.
 +
By Yaroslav Trofimov. June 15, 2025.
 +
 +
Within 48 hours of starting its war on Iran, Israel said it gained air superiority over the western part of the country, including Tehran. Israeli warplanes began dropping bombs from within Iranian skies instead of relying on expensive long-range missiles.
 +
 +
That is a feat that the giant Russian air force has been unable to achieve in Ukraine in 3½ years of war. This setback is one of the reasons why Moscow’s troops have been bogged down in grinding trench warfare, sustaining staggering losses, ever since they failed to rapidly seize Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv, in February 2022.

IDF calls on those in Tehran's Third District to evacuate ahead of Israeli airstrikes. Katz: 'The mouthpiece of Iranian propaganda and incitement is on its way to disappearing.'
 +
 +
Israel National News. Jun 16, 2025, 6:10 PM.
 +
 +
Minister of Defense Katz confirmed that the IDF has struck the "Iranian regime's propaganda and incitement broadcasting authority," after a widespread evacuation of the population.
 +
"We will hit the Iranian dictator everywhere," Katz declared.
 +
The IDF confirmed that the Israeli Air Force conducted a precise strike based on intelligence provided by the Intelligence Directorate, targeting a "communications center that was being used for military purposes by the Iranian Armed Forces."
 +
 +
According to the IDF, "The building was used by the Iranian Armed Forces under the guise of civilian activity, covering up the military use of the center's infrastructure and assets. The strike directly harmed the military capabilities of the Iranian Armed Forces."
 +
 +
Prior to the strike, the IDF provided an effective advanced warning to the civilian population, including phone calls, and conducted the strike in a precise manner in order to mitigate harm to civilians as far as feasible.
 +
 +
A short time earlier, the IDF issued a warning calling on residents of District Three in northern Tehran, where the headquarters are located.
 +
 +
The warning, which was written in Arabic and Farsi, stated: "In the coming hours, the IDF will operate in the area, in line with its actions in recent days across Tehran, to attack military facilities belonging to the Iranian regime."

The anti-Israel, pro-Iran faction [Tucker] on the right lost Trump.
 +
Whether or not America takes part in the fighting, the administration is complicit in the battle against a rogue, terrorist state. And the isolationist “woke right” is furious about that.
 +
 +
Jonathan S. Tobin.
 +
(June 16, 2025 / JNS).
 +
 +
Who is losing the most in the successful strikes on Iran by the Israeli Defense Forces? At the top of the list is, obviously, the Islamist regime itself. It has had its terrorist infrastructure in the form of the leadership of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, as well as what is left of its military. And, of course, it has suffered significant damage to its nuclear facilities, in addition to its oil and gas industry, which is the foundation of the despotic government’s already-shaky economy.
 +
 +
We don’t know yet what this will mean for the future of the theocratic regime that has maintained power since it took over the country in 1979. And it’s still far from clear whether the credibility lost by the way that the Israeli Air Force has been able to operate with impunity, destroying the government’s assets and leaders, will be enough to shake off their tyrannical grip on a nation that desperately needs to replace them.
 +
 +
The other big loser in this struggle is a “woke right” faction of the conservative movement in the United States that opposes Israel and has been fervently opposed to any action to stop Iran from gaining nuclear weapons. More to the point, this rag-tag group of talk-show hosts, right-wing influencers and social-media gurus who can’t seem to mention Israel without betraying their antisemitic tendencies has lost President Donald Trump.

 +
Or to be more precise, they never really had him.

Following President Donald Trump’s urgent call for civilians to leave Tehran, local footage and eyewitness reports show growing numbers of Iranians fleeing the capital. The dramatic scenes come hours after Trump declared:
 +
“Everyone must evacuate Tehran immediately. Iran can never have a nuclear weapon.”

Public fear is intensifying as Israeli strikes deepen and American rhetoric escalates.

Israeli woman murdered by Sudanese migrant after returning from shelter.
 +
A Sudanese migrant murdered Etty Cohen in her bedroom after she returned with her husband from taking shelter at the start of the war against Iran.
 +
Israel National News.
 +
Published: Jun 17, 2025, 10:13 AM (GMT+3)
 +
 +
Etty Cohen, a 60-year-old volunteer at a senior center in Kiryat Malachi in southern Israel, was murdered last night in her home in front of her husband, Rami, after the sirens that sounded across Israel to signal the start of the Israeli attack on Iran.
 +
 +
The suspect, an illegal migrant from Sudan, confessed to the murder and even reenacted it for the police.
 +
The police investigation found that between Thursday night and early Friday morning, at the start of Israel's strikes on Iran, Etty and Rami Cohen went down to the bomb shelter. While they were in the shelter, they noticed the suspect entering their building.
 +
 +
Once the alarms ended and they were able to exit the shelter, Etty and Rami ascended to their first-floor apartment. For an unexplained reason, the door was open, apparently because the couple did not lock it when they left. When the two entered the bedroom, the Sudanese suspect stabbed Etty with a kitchen knife.

JD Vance defends Donald Trump from Tucker Carlson's criticism.
 +
'President shows remarkable restraint in keeping focus on protecting our troops and our citizens. He is only interested in using US military to accomplish US people's goals,' says JD Vance.
 +
Israel National News. Jun 17, 2025, 8:08 PM (GMT+3)
 +
 +
Vice President JD Vance responded to criticism of President Donald Trump by isolationist right figures such as Tucker Carlson, who oppose America's support for Israel's operation against Iran's nuclear weapons program.
 +
 +
"Look, I'm seeing this from the inside, and am admittedly biased towards our president (and my friend), but there's a lot of crazy stuff on social media, so I wanted to address some things directly on the Iran issue: First, POTUS has been amazingly consistent, over 10 years, that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. Over the last few months, he encouraged his foreign policy team to reach a deal with the Iranians to accomplish this goal. The president has made clear that Iran cannot have uranium enrichment. And he said repeatedly that this would happen one of two ways--the easy way or the 'other"' way," Vance wrote on X.
 +
 +
"Second, I've seen a lot of confusion over the issue of 'civilian nuclear power' and 'uranium enrichment.' These are distinct issues. Iran could have civilian nuclear power without enrichment, but Iran rejected that. Meanwhile, they've enriched uranium far above the level necessary for any civilian purpose. They've been found in violation of their non-proliferation obligations by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which is hardly a rightwing organization."
 +
 +
"It's one thing to want civilian nuclear energy. It's another thing to demand sophisticated enrichment capacity. And it's still another to cling to enrichment while simultaneously violating basic non-proliferation obligations and enriching right to the point of weapons-grade uranium."
 +
 +
"I have yet to see a single good argument for why Iran needed to enrich uranium well above the threshold for civilian use. I've yet to see a single good argument for why Iran was justified in violating its non-proliferation obligations. I've yet to see a single good pushback against the IAEA's findings."
 +
 +
"Meanwhile, the president has shown remarkable restraint in keeping our military's focus on protecting our troops and protecting our citizens. He may decide he needs to take further action to end Iranian enrichment. That decision ultimately belongs to the president. And of course, people are right to be worried about foreign entanglement after the last 25 years of idiotic foreign policy."
 +
 +
"But I believe the president has earned some trust on this issue. And having seen this up close and personal, I can assure you that he is only interested in using the American military to accomplish the American people's goals. Whatever he does, that is his focus," Vance stated.
