Re: “Israel strikes Iran’s nuclear sites and kills top generals. Iran retaliates with missile barrages” (June 12, Nation & World):
Maybe it’s so obvious that it goes without saying, but I doubt that so I’ll say it: The entire nuclear bomb program in Iran has only one target. Only one country. The rest of the entire world will not be threatened by their nuclear bombs, so it is understandable that they (including many Americans) don’t understand the assertiveness with which Israel is carrying out its mission.
The press covers the current exchanges like a boxing match of two equals: a shallow portrayal. Imagine if Iran’s bombs — shot randomly rather than at specific military targets — had your address on them.
