larry johnson's working on the iran war that will begin in a short while we imagine; 

 

General Kenneth S. Wilsbach currently serves as the 24th Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force. I have it on good authority that his attitude is:

Time to piss or get off the pot. We have to push now or wait a month. The Iranians can’t shoot for shit but we need the night.

Sunday marks the last day of limited moonlight. As I mentioned in my last article, the Air Force planners prefer to operate with the cover of darkness… Flying into a contested zone with a half-moon or full moon creates additional risks, at least in the minds of the planners. Now it is true that the kidnapping of Maduro was conducted with a full moon — very uncharacteristic for a Special Operations mission — however, US intelligence assets had secured the cooperation of the Venezuelan military to turn off the Venezuelan air defenses and to allow the kidnapping of Maduro to take place without any significant opposition.

Iran is a different animal. It fully expects to be attacked and has been preparing to fight back against any aerial assault… Plus it has had its air defense capabilities significantly enhanced by Russian and Chinese assets. Trump’s decision on Sunday will be whether to launch now or delay. There is always the possibility that Trump will ignore the warning from General Wilsbach about launching an attack without the cover of darkness. However, senior military and intelligence officials are telling Trump that Iranians can’t shoot for shit and that the US Air Force has high confidence it can effectively Suppress Enemy Air Defense aka SEAD............more.........
