Netanyahu to Pitch Trump on New Iran Strikes As Mad Mullahs Work to Rebuild Ballistic Missile Program
One of the best ways to kill a venomous snake is to decapitate it; immediately followed by pithing, destroying the brain and spinal cord using a sharp instrument (pithing rod). The same technique is necessary to destroy the so-called Islamic Republic of Iran — sans the pithing rod, I suppose.
Given the above reality, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to brief President Donald Trump later in December on potential new strikes against Iran, as Israeli officials warn that Tehran is rebuilding and expanding key military capabilities, previously damaged by earlier strikes, including its ballistic missile program, which, according to sources, is Israel’s immediate concern.
Here’s more:
Israeli officials also are concerned that Iran is reconstituting nuclear enrichment sites the U.S. bombed in June, the sources said. But, they added, the officials view Iran’s efforts to rebuild facilities where they produce the ballistic missiles and to repair its crippled air defense systems as more immediate concerns.
Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are expected to meet later this month in Florida at the president’s Mar-a-Lago estate. At that meeting, the sources said, Netanyahu is expected to make the case to Trump that Iran’s expansion of its ballistic missile program poses a threat that could necessitate swift action.
It’s past time to kill the Islamist snake.
Whether “death” comes to fruition in any future Israeli attacks remains to be seen, one thing is certain: any damage that would be inflicted on the regime would likely continue weaken it.

In response to whether he’s going to meet with Netanyahu soon, here’s Trump, on Thursday:
“Yeah, he’ll probably come to see me in Florida,” Trump, who left for Mar-a-Lago resort on Friday, told reporters. “He would like to see me. We haven’t set it up formally, but he’d like to see me.”
Not to speculate, but it’s *almost* like Putin wants to “see me,” is whenever the dictator sees the sentiment turning against him — both in Russia and in the West.
White House spokesperson Anna Kelly said in a statement:
The International Atomic Energy Agency and Iranian government corroborated the United States government’s assessment that Operation Midnight Hammer totally obliterated Iran’s nuclear capabilities. As President Trump has said, if Iran pursued a nuclear weapon, that site would be attacked and would be wiped out before they even got close.
Yet, as we’ve seen for decades, if not centuries. Islamism can be patient when necessary. On the other hand, Islamists never seem to miss an opportunity to advance, particularly when they see weakness in their perceived enemies — which, it turns out, is every country not Islamic.

Israel’s plans to brief Trump on — and give him the option to join — possible additional military strikes in Iran come as the president is considering military strikes in Venezuela, which would open a new warfront for the U.S., and as he is touting his administration’s bombing campaign against Iran’s nuclear program and success negotiating a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.
In an address to the nation on Wednesday, Trump said told Americans he’s “destroyed the Iran nuclear threat and ended the war in Gaza, bringing for the first time in 3,000 years, peace to the Middle East.”
The Israeli concerns about Iran come as Tehran has expressed interest in resuming diplomatic talks with the U.S. aimed at curtailing its nuclear deal, which could potentially complicate Israel’s approaching Trump about new strikes.
The funding of Iranian proxies in the region also is top of mind for the Israelis, according to the person with direct knowledge of Israel’s plans.
Unfortunately, “bringing peace” in the Middle East continues to be more of a goal — dare I say a pipe dream? — than actually doing so.
Need proof of the above?
According to the source — a person with direct knowledge of Israel’s plans and former U.S. officials briefed on the plans — Iran’s production of ballistic missiles, left unchecked, could increase to as many as 3,000 per month.
That’s a sobering thought, but the mad mullahs in Tehran, left unchecked, could (and ultimately would) do far more sobering things than building missiles.
