Israel Victorious
No matter what happens next, Iran’s stranglehold on the Middle East has been broken.
Israel has done the impossible. From within and without, in an attack that has obviously been in planning for months (if not years), Israel has utterly destroyed Iran’s hegemonic power in the Middle East.
Iran’s terror proxies are on the run. Iran’s top generals, nuclear scientists, and many government officials are dead, or soon will be. The inside story of how Israel successfully carried out Operation Rising Lion will live in military history as one of the greatest coups of all time.
“How Israel’s Mossad Smuggled Drone Parts to Attack Iran From Within,” Dov Lieber and Andrew Dowell shared the inside scoop for the Wall Street Journal on June 15, 2025. “ The operation used stealth to target Iranian air defenses and missiles.”
“By the time Israel’s advanced F-35 jet fighters swooped in to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities and military leadership, a lower-tech threat had already crossed the border and was in position to clear the way,” Lieber and Dowell revealed. “Israel had spent months smuggling in parts for hundreds of quadcopter drones rigged with explosives — in suitcases, trucks and shipping containers — as well as munitions that could be fired from unmanned platforms, people familiar with the operation said.”
