The crybabies continue to whine about January 6. Now, the Park Service has allowed the installation of a supposed replica of Pelosi's desk, with a pile of feces on it. 

Egads. The delusions of these people. I have never once seen any report to indicate that people defecated anywhere but in the restrooms. But repeat a lie often enough, and it becomes the truth. I know.

Make enough people believe that, and the sculpture will be gone,

Israel took out a factory critical to the Iranian missile program, along with other targets.

'Backbone of Iran's missile industry' destroyed by IAF strikes on Islamic Republic - reports

The Israel Air Force struck a dozen targets in Iran that were used to produce solid fuel for long-range ballistic missiles as part of its retaliatory military action against the Islamic Republic, severely harming Tehran's ability to replenish its inventory, Israeli media reported on Saturday night.

The targets struck were sophisticated equipment that Iran could not produce on its own and had to be purchased from China, Walla reported. The targets were a critical component of Iran's ballistic missile program, Walla cited three anonymous Israeli sources as saying.

Israeli sources also stated that four S-300 air defense batteries were attacked that were in strategic locations that protected nuclear and energy facilities in Tehran during the operation. A factory for the production of drones and a facility in the Parchin military complex were also attacked, the latter of which saw in the past research and development activities for nuclear weapons.

The Arabic independent online newspaper Elaph reported Israel targeted a secret ballistic missile factory in Iran, destroying a large number of heavy fuel mixers used to power Kheibar and Haj Qasem missiles - both of which were fired by Iran at Israel at the beginning of the month. The report also claimed that the S-300 air defense batteries that were attacked were Russian-made and destroyed radars that feed these systems and others in Syria and Iraq. 

The report said that the ballistic missile factory was completely destroyed. One source told Elaph that it was the "backbone of Iran's missile industry" and that Israel had "put it out of service," also reporting that each heavy fuel mixer destroyed was estimated to be at least two million dollars and about twenty mixers of this type were destroyed.

While Walla reported that production to restore such equipment would reportedly take at least one year, informed sources on the Iranian missile industry told Elaph that it would take at least two years to return the destroyed factory to service.

The Biden-Hamas administration must be quite upset at having to give Iran another $40 million

Another take away is not the strike, but the IAF's ability to do against some the best Russian systems into a heavily defended area.

This not only let's Russia know if it wants to widen the Ukraine war, they have some calculations to make. It will also affect the ChiCom calculus since a lot of their stuff is on the Russia tech tree.
