I donтАЩt know why the risk of terrorist attacks doesnтАЩt occur to people anymore. ItтАЩs like we learned nothing from 9/11. This doesnтАЩt even require a vivid imagination, just a basic level of long term memory.
We have incompetent fools in charge of the NSA and DoD. Kristi Noem is too busy blowing her budget on sending migrants to foreign torture prisons, cosplay photo ops, and hair extensions. All the capable people have been fired and the remaining few have been reduced to a skeleton crew. Our allies no longer trust us and are not sharing intelligence with us. Iran CAN absolutely attack us on our own soilтАФjust not the way being discussed.
I've also been wondering why no one has mentioned that retaliation is likely to take the form of terrorist attacks.
For Europe, where I live, there is some comfort in the fact that Trump has thrown the continent overboard, so it might not be the immediate target of such attacks.
I do not anticipate any activity in Europe unless our former allies provide us with material support. That seems highly unlikely under the present circumstances. I donтАЩt even know what kind of support could be given.
But an attack or series of attacks on US soil seems inevitable, and given that we have a petty malignant narcissist in charge and 100 sycophantic co-narcissists enabling him, I could foresee the Trump admin knowing full and well that a terrorist attack is imminent and allowing it to happen because odds are 10-to-1 that such an attack will occur in a blue state.
Mara: I think you are right. No reason for pro Iranian agent to retaliate in Europe. But we are crazier beyond imagination if we think nothing bad will happen in US after this bombing
So what will the retaliation be? There are American bases and military personnel in the Middle East. Targets all.
Iranian proxies have already launched a few drones at US military installations, but they were all shot down.

Lily! Learn from 9/11? That's CRAZY talk! Didn't you read this article, published by the Bulwark, only yesterday???
Learning from past mistakes is for LOSERS. This time is going to be different!
I can't wait for the photos of liberated Iranian women throwing their hijabs under the tracks of Israeli tanks rolling through the streets of Tehran!
FREEDOM!!!

Of course. Surely we will be greeted as liberators THIS time, especially with such a reliable narrator as our sole ally and source of truth:
