The Beginning of the Beginning has Begun
Operation Rising Lion crushes Iranian defenses.
Up to this point in time, it was hard to know how Israel would neutralize the one remaining threat to peace. Remember that Gog and Magog descend upon Israel, when she is in a time of peace and prosperity.
This means that Israel's enemies need to be neutralized. And her final enemy is being taken down as I write this.
If this really is the beginning of the beginning, then Israel will know a period of peace and lower her guard. Then Gog and Magog will come.
And with it, the Redemption of Israel.

The Beginning of the Beginning has Begun
The first strikes began in the early hours of June 13. They took out the military command structure, nuclear research leadership and nuclear production facilities. But Israel's first efforts towards their current goals began long before fighters took off for their targets.
Weeks before, south of Tehran, Mossad built a hidden base and stocked it with explosive drones. Each drone had an anti-aircraft missile target. Hours before Israeli warplanes came within range of those air defenses, they were taken out by these drones.
Of course, we say Mossad because everyone expects Mossad to be behind such operations. But there are other organizations who have far greater capability than Mossad. Sayeret Maglan (Ibis) is one such unit, and there are other Sayeret units that would also have been able to make such an audacious attack happen. But there's something more.
Operation Rising Lion could not have been this successful, this quickly without an enthusiastic support by a resentful Iranian population. The Iranians want the Ayatollahs out, and it if means helping Israel decapitate Iran, they are more than willing to help. And we know that Israel has created a network of Iranians willing to operate against the Ayatollahs.
Furthermore, there was an implied offer of assistance in toppling the Ayatollahs in Netanyahu's speech just as Israeli aircraft had finished attacking their targets and were returning safely to base:
But then, Bibi made a far more clear statement hours later:
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Addresses the Iranian People
Israel has already established an internal network inside Iran that should be able to offer command and control for any attempt to topple the Iranian regime. For Bibi to make such a bold statement, there must be weapons caches and trained commanders waiting for rebels to use against the corrupt and violent Ayatollahs.
Previous uprisings were put down by bringing in Hezbollah fighters to shoot Iranians. Those Hezbollah fighters no longer exist. Nor can Iran call upon Hamas or even the Houthis to do such dirty work. So, this is the biggest chance for the Iranian people to take out their leadership.
However, should the Iranian people fail in their attempt to topple the regime in Tehran, Israel is taking out some insurance against such failure. If the reports I am receiving are true, Israel is going after the single source of funding for Iran's nuclear program - their petroleum industry.
We will not know for sure if Israel is actually attacking Iran's oil terminals and refineries until long after the war is over. But if this turns out to be true, that will be the single largest blow to Iran's efforts to destabilize the region. It will take years for Iran to recover from such a series of strikes against their petroleum industry. (And China will lose their number one source of oil.)
Israeli Special Forces In Iran
Unless they have found another way, taking out Iran's nuclear program will probably require elite units that specialize in destroying structures above ground and below, as well as units specializing in infiltration and exfiltration. Depending on how Israel has decided to handle ground operations, many of these units may have already been inserted into prepared launching points that will allow them to quickly secure their objectives, allowing special forces engineering units like the Sayeret Yahalom, to enter the fortified tunnels and destroy nuclear enrichment machinery and collapsing the tunnels from the inside. And Israel has done this before.
On September 8th, 2023, Israel launched Operation Many Ways, to destroy a deep Iranian tunnel facility that was used for the purposes of manufacturing missiles to strike Israel. One hundred Sayeret Shaldag soldiers (Israel Air Force special forces) and 20 elite Unit 669 Search and Rescue troops were inserted deep into Syrian territory long before the fall of the Syrian regime.
The Shaldag (Kingfisher) soldiers penetrated the base, laid explosives, and took intelligence material before exfiltrating to waiting helicopters and then collapsing the tunnel complex.
The ground part of the operation took two and a half hours. Fifty minutes to break into the base, and then 110 minutes for fifty soldiers to race through the base laying 300kg (660lb) of explosives throughout the tunnel complex (using a quad motorcycle) before leaving. The other 50 soldiers deployed to defend the operation area and fought off several attempts to stop the operation.
When they were finished and in the air, the explosives collapsed the tunnels, destroying the base. No soldiers were injured and the base could not be repaired.
This operation required two months of intense training.
Has Israel been training their special forces units for operations in Iran?
You would be a fool to not believe it, and I don't think that any of you are fools. The question is how will Israel infiltrate and then exfiltrate their units. Israel commands the air and would be able to destroy any attempts by Iran to stop such an attack. And Israel's fleet of submarines have been used in such covert operations. But the risk would be far higher than Operation Many Ways. And Israel does not send soldiers on suicide missions.
Never in the history of Israel have they ever sent soldiers on missions in which there was no hope of return. This has been a part of Israel's operations planning from 1948 until now. Every IDF soldier knows that they will not be left behind.
So, how will Israel get into Iran, and then out?
I think that we are close to finding out.
What Happens After The War
If Israel is only successful in achieving her primary objective of destroying Iran's nuclear weapons program, then Israel will not know peace for some time.
However, if Israel can destroy Iran's petroleum industry and their oil terminals, then the Iranian government will fall because they will no longer be able to support their proxies in Lebanon, Iraq, Gaza and Yemen and subsidize their internal allies in Iran. And if Israel can successfully collapse the Iranian IRGC and the Ayatollahs, a new Iranian revolution would neutralize Iran as a threat.
The only question is about how God intends for Israel to be at peace in preparation for Gog and Magog. Even if every objective was completed successfully over the coming days and weeks, much would need to be done for that moment to happen. But those who have been watching events unfold from a proper perspective, will have a front row seat as the Hand of God works.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Thank you for your perspective Brother John. Still holding you in prayer.
Hi John, anything else that you can/care to share? The info you had on Saturday was on point.
