According to CNN: Kash Patel gutted FBI counterintelligence team tasked with tracking Iranian threats days before US strikes, sources say

Just days before the United States launched a major military operation in Iran, FBI Director Kash Patel fired a dozen agents and staff members from a counterintelligence unit tasked with monitoring threats from Iran, according to two sources familiar with the matter.

They were ousted for a simple reason: Each was involved in the investigation of President Donald Trump’s alleged retention of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate.

As a result, Patel hamstrung the Washington, DC-based FBI counterintelligence unit, known as CI-12, which handles cases ranging from mishandling of classified documents to tracking foreign spies operating on US soil.

Iran planned and armed itself for that scenario since decades - asymmetrical warfare against Israel and America. Which is why they do rely on cheap stuff like drones, speed boats and other things. Now with its head of state being killed they've got nothing left to loose any longer.

It's an irony that Khamenei, who wanted this war for so long died on its 1st day.

This is from a press release, published today, on the official government website of Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives:

The administration has detailed its rationale behind the operation and it bears repeating: The largest state sponsor of terrorism – Iran and its proxies – have killed more Americans than any other terrorist regime on Earth. They are dedicated to it. They have been and they say the quiet parts out loud. They wanted to wipe Israel off the face of the Earth and they would like to take us out as well. We're the “Great Satan” in their analogy, in their misguided religion, and there was no way to appease them.

Iran held a mass funeral ceremony for 165 schoolgirls and staff killed on Saturday in what Iran has described as a United States-Israeli attack on a girls’ school in the southern city of Minab.

The Israeli military has claimed it was not aware of any Israeli or US attacks in that area. Throughout its genocidal war on Gaza, Israel has denied multiple deadly attacks on Palestinian civilians, only to later backtrack when irrefutable evidence emerged, then terming such attacks as “accidental”.

Iran is playing an impressive game of scorched earth. Israel and the US look like a clown show.

Yes yes, we have reached the "Lifetime Archair Quarterback gets the chance to live out their dream." Phase of the administration's plans.
