Even that is way to much information. It would allow the enemy to count targets as they are attacked, helping them to perceive a pattern that might help them better defend remaining targets.

CPT Jack Durish too cocky and too much info. The element of surprise had been compromised

Maybe. But I still like the symbolism.

Iran is on notice. They know what they will get if they push their luck. Tying in the 52 targets for the 52 hostages was nice. Islamists love numbers and dates that are meaningful.

Cpl Jeff N. Let us hope they don't love it so much so that they don't start playing Suduko.

PO3 Phyllis Maynard - They have a chance to step back from the brink here. The damage that could be done to them from the air is significant for an economy already faltering. Taking out oil fields, power stations, government buildings, bridges and other infrastructure could also encourage those that want to change their government to act.

PO3 Phyllis Maynard - There is an opportunity for Iran to do the right thing here. They were caught with their Quds Force commander in a foreign, sovereign nation doing things he should not have been doing. They know his force is designated a terrorist organization and consequently the General is a legitimate target.

Their real military options are pretty limited and if they go down that path they have been fully warned at what comes next. The ball is squarely in their court.
