Welcome to the Tudor Dixon podcast.

Well, this year has brought many military operations.

And I think to some people's surprise, we've had more military operations than we expected

everything from Venezuela to Iran.

And the president is now saying that the war in Iran is over, but it's

sort of confusing because we're obviously still in the midst of operations there. So I wanted to

The pilots going in, all kinds of the diversions, everything from false

insurances to hitting them from 60,000 feet with stealth bombers and then going below 10,000
