Those in the military are fair game.
They were offered a "walk away with no penalty" card quite some time ago.
It has now expired.
Unfortunately the term "Inshah Allah" is often used to shield them from accepting responsibility for their own actions. So they gamble, and double down, and double down again all the while waiting for lucky number seven.
Consider the strong possibility of a FALSE FLAG attack.
The Iran IRGC, the Mullahs, the Iranian government... none if them has total control of anything now. Promises made by one are broken by the others. That said, none of them have control of all the weapons and nobody knows which special forces from other nations might be hiding within Iran too.
Any small group can attack a ship 10 miles off the coast. This could easily be Israeli mossad forces in Iran, ocassionally firing at random ships... then watching Iranian military getting the snot bombed out of them in response.
It could be Kurdish, or even Omani or Saudi forces who infiltrated Iran, and shoot a missile or drone at a ship... which results in Iran being destroyed.
It could even be U.S. special forces providing justification for further U.S. attacks on Iranian regime. The military strikes don't require notifying Congress... because we are defending international shipping per agreement.
And I gave you the answer: can't target if you don't know where the target is. I'm sorry you have no sense of humor. Perhaps it was a little too obvious in retrospect.
because they already have? because, much earlier in this, the point was made that many groups had been cut loose and were doing their own thing? because once we killed the generals, colonels started claiming those spots whether they deserved them or not? because those same new "generals" have to keep their troops happy by doing dumb thing when they don't actually have a true mandate to lead?
At 7:15 p.m. ET today, U.S. Central Command forces began launching the third round of strikes this week against Iran after Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces blatantly attacked M/V GFS Galaxy, a Cyprus-flagged container ship transiting the Strait of Hormuz. A civilian crew member is missing and the vessel is unable to continue the journey due to an onboard fire and significant engineroom damage.
Iran was provided yet another opportunity to demonstrate adherence to the Memorandum of Understanding after being held accountable for earlier attacks on commercial vessels but has again failed.
In response, the United States is imposing a heavy cost by continuing to degrade Iran’s ability to attack civilian mariners and commercial ships freely transiting the strait. The strikes are being carried out at the direction of the Commander in Chief.
It's like fighting a hydra...but in this case, the heads do not grow back. We don't know the details of the target manifest. The indications are that it is intended to increase the economic and logistic pressure.
I pray 🙏 that they’re able to make the leaders pay without harming common citizens that want to live under a different government.
Not sure how many "Leaders" there are over there.

But the dice keep coming up "17".

Or Leprechauns. No limit to whom it might be...in your imagination.
Why are they not targeting the IRGC leadership? Cut the head off of the snake for goodness sakes.
Got the target coordinates? I'm sure they would be happy to do that.
Go be a smart ass somewhere else. Honest question. Piss off!

Why was Trump negotiating with the current Ayatollah? There's very much still a leadership structure
To fragment leadership

Its like they WANT to get struck
I thought we had them beat multiple times.
This is embarrassing and I'm sick of the sideshow. Either wipe out the regime entirely or quit wasting everyone's time.

I mean, what is Iran using at this point … slingshots?
