First I’ll basically link to a mainstream liberal outlet (Axios) that provides a vanilla flavored account—US officials are concerned, not too much more.
The Biden Administration being blamed for leaking the documents on an Israeli attack. Seems lots of people had access to the documents including other 5 eyes partners.
My gut feeling is Israel was somehow involved. They did something similar in 73 with nuclear drills the US picked up on. Basically blackmailing the us support. Either help us or we go nuclear.
Aw heck... they discovered our plans. Well, I guess that's off.
Maybe this is all theatrics designed to create a belief that Israel was planning an attack when they'd already realized it would be suicidal? IOW, a face saving operation.
I think the Israelis have already telegraphed what they intent to do, repeatedly. They have focused on various novel and violent decapitation strikes against key individuals. My guess is that that will be their focus once again. They will launch many strikes against targets known or likely to harbor important political and military leadership. And this attack will occur when they can do the most to disrupt the BRICS conference. And if Iran counterstrikes with a serious response, any further escalation becomes justification for postponing the election.
Yes the docs look valid. But I remain suspicious. Like Johnson said on Sonar 21....He (btw nor I) could find any reference to a "Golden Horizon" missile/ rocket system. Is it some kind of TS SCI item behind a "need to know" Fire wall?. Or maybe this is a new Israeli invention? Maybe it is Above TS in that it is a nuclear capable system? Lots of questions, little to go on.
But one thing I would do if I was the Israelis. Just like dealing with the Viet's and Iraqis. I would tell the United States MIL/STATE/CIA only so much, but the REAL plan I would not trust to anyone outside the Highest levels of the Israeli MILSEC community.
The United States has shown itself not to be trusted.
And with this new behavior, I would do my best to keep US in the dark as to the actual time/date of the attack. This may not be possible depending on the amount of assistance the jews are getting from the US.
But absolute secrecy is paramount in this operation. Suprise is THE key to success. The US has now proven itself to be completely untrustworthy. This is what happens when you depend on idiots.
The United States sent 19 C-17 Cargo planes to Nevatim Air Base since October 14th, when the THAAD anti-ballistic missile system deployment was announced.
More flights are planned.

The US is not sending all this for nothing, they must know Israel's plans and believe the conflict in the region can/will take a violent turn
Another October surprise?

Iran's FM Araghchi:
"Any attack on Iran is considered a crossing of the red line.
We have identified all targets in Israel that will receive an appropriate response to any attack, whether on Iranian nuclear facilities or otherwise.
If a full-scale war breaks out in the region, which we do not want, the US will inevitably be drawn into it as well."

Very good supposition - if a modicum of sanity could be said to exist amongst the madmen of Tel Aviv and Foggy Bottom.
I wonder if Israel is contemplating an emp strike, anything else baring a nuclear attack wouldn’t make much sense.

Weapons delivery I presume.
Why are these details of missles, bombs, and rockets provided in detail ??? Seems very hard on Israeli plans with all of these details!
