Good evening. The show begins tonight in Iran, target of the bombing by Israel these last days,

0:08.8

and over the weekend by the Strategic Bomber B-2 out of Missouri, and delivering a very large bomb called a MOP, M-O-P,

0:21.4

30,000 pounds, we're told.

0:24.2

Directly at Fordo, the very underground Iranian suspect nuclear weapons procedure centrifuges and more.

0:34.9

Isfahan and one more site in a tons. However, the negotiation is very difficult

0:41.1

to read. In retaliation, Iran launched diffidently, missiles at Qatar, at Bahrain, perhaps at Saudi Arabia.

2:02.0

to guarantee that Iran won't move towards a bomb? The Ayatoll is in place. The leadership, as far as I can tell,

2:09.1

is in place. Military leadership was decimated, was decapitated last week, but quickly replaced by commanders. Iran, Iran, Iran. The U.S. has issued a very serious warning at home, homeland defense.

2:20.7

Yes, especially synagogues and Jewish schools, but everywhere.

2:25.0

Retaliation can take many forms and doesn't need to be organized from Tehran Center.

2:31.6
