Anyways, Jeffrey Epstein’s besty Donald Trump is still a pedophile and that’s the topic were sticking with.KT “Special MI6 Operation” (@KremlinTrolls)People talk about Trump ‘would have fucked his daughter Ivanka if she let him’.

Do you really think she had a choice after she was groomed by Donald and sent to France  aged 14 to ‘model’ for Gerald Marie  – chief of the Paris office of Elite, and a pedophile, who she was signed with?

She’s floating around Paris and NY aged 14, 15 and being passed around. Of course he fucked her to.—  https://x.com/KremlinTrolls/status/2029077818085089659

US and Israeli Air Campaign: The United States has struck over 1,700 Iranian targets since February 28. The Israeli Air Force (IAF) announced that it has conducted 1,600 sorties into Iranian territory since the start of the war on February 28.

The combined force targeted internal security and military institutions in northwestern Iran.

The IDF continued to strike sites associated with Iran’s nuclear program, including facilities linked to weaponization research conducted by Iranian nuclear scientists.

The combined force has continued to degrade Iranian air defense capabilities in order to maintain air superiority over parts of Iran.

An Israeli analyst, citing commercially available satellite imagery, reported on March 3 that the combined force struck an underground facility at the Parchin Military Complex southeast of Tehran.

The US-Israeli combined force continues to degrade Iran’s ballistic missile program. The combined force struck an underground missile facility in Haji Abad, Hormozgan Province, on February 28.Institute for the Study of War (@TheStudyofWar)NEW: The combined US-Israeli force has designed its campaign to destroy Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities before the force depletes its interceptor stockpiles. The destruction of missile launchers mitigates the risk that either the United States or Israel will run out of interceptors by limiting Iran’s ability to launch missiles in the first place. The decrease in Iranian missile attacks against Israel and the UAE strongly suggests that the effort to destroy ballistic missile launchers has had considerable success.

Other Key Takeaways ⬇️

1. The IDF struck key decision-making institutions on March 3, including the Assembly of Experts building in Tehran, as part of an effort to disrupt senior decision-making. The Assembly of Experts is an 88-member clerical body that is responsible for appointing and supervising the Supreme Leader, according to the Iranian constitution. Strikes that disrupt or prevent the Assembly of Experts from fulfilling its constitutional duty to select the next Supreme Leader would undermine the legitimacy of the regime. The regime is based on the principle of Velayat-e Faqih, in which a jurist, the Supreme Leader, controls Iran.

2. Iranian leaders have devolved powers to lower-level officials in response to the combined force’s strikes targeting senior officials and central decision-making institutions, likely to ensure continued state functions despite disruptions to central Iranian leadership.

3. The IDF continued to strike sites associated with Iran’s nuclear program, including facilities linked to weaponization research conducted by Iranian nuclear scientists.

4. Iran continued to conduct drone and ballistic missile attacks targeting US forces and sites in Gulf countries, which has prompted two US embassies to close.

5. The United States and Israel continued to strike Iranian-backed Iraqi militias on March 2 and 3 to degrade their ability to conduct retaliatory attacks against US forces and Israel.—  https://x.com/TheStudyofWar/status/2029065216869183725
