PAUL’S DEFENSE BRIEF (PDB) – U.S., Israel launched “Operation Epic Fury” on Iran after the regime refused to scrap its nuclear program — Trump vows to eliminate threats.
Trump says he took out Khamenei before “he got me.” “They tried twice,” he said of previous Iranian regime attempts on his life. “Well, I got him first.”
Trump tells Iranians to “take over your government.” “It will be yours to take. America is backing you with overwhelming strength.”
Who might replace Iran’s supreme leader? Iran’s evil clerical regime is trying to find a successor to its Supreme Leader following his killing. Here are the potential successors.
FOR YOUR EYES ONLY – Here’s a roundup of today’s other top defense news from conservative national security expert PAUL CRESPO.
THE PDB – Not the President’s Daily Briefing, but almost as good – PAUL’S DEFENSE BRIEF:
NATIONAL SECURITY
Viral message purporting to be from U.S. Cyber Command wasn’t sent by the command. The message claimed Cybercom was warning troops to turn off location services from their electronic devices and that multiple commercial applications were compromised, all amid the ongoing military operations against Iran.
HOMELAND SECURITY
IRAN CAMPAIGN
Iranian ballistic missiles were intercepted Saturday over a Kuwaiti base hosting the U.S. Air Force.

Ship tracking reveals tankers and millions of barrels of oil stuck in the Gulf.
Trump was once wary of ordering regime change in Iran. With Saturday’s military operation against Iran, President Trump demonstrated a dramatic evolution in risk tolerance, adjusting in just a matter of months how far he was willing to go in using U.S. military might.
CHINA THREAT
5 charts show China’s oil dilemma after U.S. strikes on Iran. Disruption of Iranian oil supplies may make China more interested in turning to Russia.
As the Middle East erupts into a wider conflict, China has condemned the joint U.S.-Israeli military strikes on Iran and urged Gulf states to work together to oppose foreign influence (except its own, of course).
RUSSIA THREAT/UKRAINE WAR
SPACE THREATS
WAR ON WOKE
Pentagon will forbid members of the military from attending Columbia, Yale, Brown, and other universities for formal professional education starting next school year amid a campaign to cut ties with institutions that War Secretary Pete Hegseth called “factories of anti-American resentment.”

I am VERY much against abortion, but in this case there are a few people in the Iranian leadership ( most or all of whom are now dead ) who would have been good candidates for that.
Just think of the probably THOUSANDS ( probably MANY thousands ) who would still be alive if not for those scumbags!
I can’t believe that I’ve just written something that sounds like being pro-abortion, but I can’t see any other way, in a case like this, of any other option.
It’s too bad that there is no way to know what a fetus will become when becoming an adult.
Iran … I hope to welcome your people to a free Iran in days soon to come! A FREE Iran!
Wonderful!
