John Helmer reports that American and Israeli forces conducted a combined strike on February 28 allegedly targeting Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Iran’s national security council, aiming to topple Iran’s state leadership. He argues Iranian retaliation over the following fifteen days has degraded US and Israeli missile defenses and threatened strategic sites near Tel Aviv. The piece warns this raises acute nuclear-escalation risks and US–Israel political friction.
