KOS: "We Are Going To Hit Iran. Bigtime"
"I know this will sound crazy coming from a Naval officer", she said. "But were all just waiting for this administration to end. Things that happen at the senior officer level seem more and more to happen outside of the purview of XOs and other officers who typically have a say-so in daily combat and flight operations. Today, orders just come down from the mountaintop and theres no questioning. In fact, there is no discussing it. I have seen more than one senior commander disappear and then three weeks later we find out that he has been replaced. Thats really weird. Its also really weird because everyone who has disappeared has questioned whether or not we should be staging a massive attack on Iran."
Another way to view this: if/when Iran strikes, our military and administration would have been negligent if they hadn't planned and prepared in detail for that eventuality. There is nothing in this that indicates we are preparing for a first strike. Though we might be, if Iran continues towards their goal.
