Lots to say about this statement, but it appears that the US doesn’t entirely understand what Putin wants.

The war likely would not end immediately if Ukraine gave up its claim to NATO and Crimea, Russia has made that clear even through the latest round of negotiations.

There is no way to describe the exact side or system responsible, whether it be artillery or an FPV drone, though the date of the shelling is relatively clear.

- Iranian military leadership decimated

- Failure of Iran’s missile force to launch an immediate response - Israeli Mossad operatives running around launching drones and ATGMs at key Iranian systems

- Israeli Air Force generating an immense number of sorties over Iran, with Syria serving as a safe refueling area.

- Hezbollah choosing to stay on the sidelines
