A Must Read.

[Axios @axios]

EXCLUSIVE: Last Monday, Benjamin Netanyahu called Trump with a stunning tip: Iran's supreme leader and his top advisers were set to meet at one location on Saturday morning.

The Feb. 23 call was a pivotal moment that set the Iran war in motion. https://t.co/P4PpVA7pwS

OPERATION EPIC FURY:

1. Destroy the Iranian regime's missiles
2. Annihilate their Navy
3. Ensure their terrorist proxies can no longer destabilize the world
4. Ensure Iran can NEVER obtain a nuclear weapon

America will win. The terrorist Iranian regime will be defeated.

I am very concerned about these strikes in Iran. What if the Iranian government retaliates by funding a network of proxy militias across the Middle East, attacking US troops in the region, sponsoring terrorism against Israel and Saudi Arabia, and attacking vessels in the Red Sea?

1.5 hours later, the Times changed the article title but kept the audacious “no credible explanation” quote.

[Shelby Weiss @ShelbyWeissPR]

The New York Times Editorial Board can think of “no credible explanation” as to why the U.S. would launch military strikes against Iran. You’d think a room full of top notch, big time journos could think of something!! Truly amazing.

#BREAKING: Joint U.S.-Israel military operation in #Tehran is ongoing, Israel’s public broadcaster reports.

Israeli media say one airstrike targeted the presidential headquarters in Tehran and that Israel is conducting a series of targeted assassinations inside the country.

Al Jazeera forbids its staff from referring to al Qaeda, ISIS, and Boko Haram as “terrorist,” “Islamist,” or “extremist” groups, instead using “neutral terms” like “fighters” and “armed groups,” according to a copy of the Qatari outlet’s style guide obtained by @LevineJonathan.

I had the chance to meet Wolf at the @WashInstitute Soref Conference last week. Amazing journalist, kind man. Congrats on 35 years, Wolf!

My first day at @cnn was 35 years ago today - May 8, 1990 - when I became CNN’s Pentagon Correspondent. I thought it would be a slow beat but Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait which launched the first Gulf War. I still get up every day and love reporting the news. Thanks @cnn

[CBS Evening News with Tony Dokoupil @CBSEveningNews]

Israel has approved a plan to expand military operations in Gaza and seize more territory that would displace hundreds of thousands in the area. The move is backed by the Trump administration, with implementation delayed until after the president’s upcoming visit — a window some hope could lead to a ceasefire and hostage deal.

I do the NYT's Connections every morning and then spend the rest of the day hating myself because I didn't realize those four names were all doomed whaling ships built in 1832.
