Millions of Americans woke up Saturday morning to learn that President Trump had ordered a massive military operation to stop Iran’s ballistic missile and nuclear weapons programs. If, as a result, a new government emerged that would liberate the Iranian people from the oppressive Shiite Islamist regime, that would be something we could all celebrate. Within hours, news broke that our Israeli allies had eliminated Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. More than 40 top Iranian officials were sent to their graves in the opening minutes of Operation Epic Fury. The decision to attack on Saturday came after intelligence reports revealed that Khamenei would be meeting with a number of senior regime officials. Khamenei’s son, considered a leading candidate to replace him as supreme leader, was also killed. So too was Iran’s former hardline president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who threatened to wipe Israel “off the map.”
