Who Won- Operation Desert Lion

The nuclear programme hit what the world was always very apprehensive about. The fact is it was never meant for energy but destruction. Let’s not falter from losing sight of the main aim of this operation, and that was hit.

This war was like what happens when you plan to build a flyover over the very road that caused the congestion. Increasing the troubles of travel even more and further congestion and hardships.

Two things come out, first is that the US & Israel aimed to reduce the congestion with a flyover. The second is that they caused further congestion with the construction of the flyover. (Gave Iran a reason to display their military capacities to the Arab world).

Maybe in time the flyover would actually ease the congestion. Or, like in Mumbai and the BMC way of functioning, by the time the flyover is built (5-10years), the traffic would be much more keeping the congestion as a constant. (And all the honking and speeches and rants will bring in the noise).

In the middle there will always be traffic chaos and road rage, where other parties will get involved condemning the act or joining the action. (The vultures of the world). The participants in the chaos will always be confused about the end state. Cause here is where narratives matter. Propoganda wins and information warfare absolves faulty agendas. When the flyover is finally built, everyone heaves a sigh of relief even though knowing it’s only temporary, until the traffic catches up again.

That’s the way this war has happened. Israel brilliantly timed its attacks when the US was in talks with Iran. Iran responded and showed that it had the capability of response. The US stepped in because that was always the contingency plan. The Iranians to facilitate their ego hit the US base in Qatar. Nothing killed and nothing damaged, but ego satisfied and immediately called for a unilateral cease fire.

The US announced the cease fire as the worlds self designated peace keeper. Israel, as always said nothing because they won’t rest until the Khomeini is obliterated, unlike India’s early withdrawal from OP SINDOOR. They have an end state in mind, and they haven’t achieved it still. Primarily here, is the end of this regime in Iran and destroying the nuclear programme and those connected with it.

So, who wins this war? Israel for taking out the nuclear programme, Iran for not mellowing down and striking back effectively and the US for entering the war in a calculated risk and ensuring an early closure and negotiating a cease fire. SO EVERY ONE WON. WELCOME TO MODERN WARFARE !

Let’s get back to GAZA now and the Israeli’s continuing hostilities and maybe the war between Russia and Ukraine, where Kyiv is being hit.

BIBI and Putin won’t be happy here. They wanted a prolonged operation desert lion after all.
