The Guns of June
Date:July 9, 2025
June 2025 will go down in history as the month when three exceptional military campaigns were executed which transformed the global situation.
- On June 1, 2025 Ukraine launched a brilliant attack on four Russian airbases thousands of miles from its borders using drones shipped in boxes by Russian trucks. These drones destroyed 13 long range bombers capable of attacking the US.
- On June 9, Israel launched continuous attacks on Iranian air defense systems used to protect their fortified sites for developing nuclear weapons nearing completion and other missile sites. They also assassinated eleven senior Iranian nuclear scientists.
- On June 22, seven B-2 Spirit bombers launched an attack on four Iranian nuclear development sites, including the Fordow location where activities are conducted in an extensive network sheltered under 300 feet of mountain range. The bombers each launched a 30,000 pound “Bunker Buster” bombs obliterating the site and killing top nuclear scientists. Simultaneously US submarines launched 30 Tomahawk missiles against the three other Iranian nuclear sites.
These attacks were authorized by President Trump two days after the expiration of the 30-day formal negotiation period with Iran. The simple fact that Iran was developing nuclear technology in scattered underground sites confirmed their intention to create nuclear weapons and were not for peaceful power generation uses. The whole world knew this but did little about it until last month.
Both Israel and Ukraine are engaged in ongoing existential battles to protect their freedom and the success of these attacks Is inspirational. The participation of the US Air Force, with superb efficiency, was a welcome victory for the free world. Iran’s totalitarian allies, Russia and China did not offer Iran any support during its crisis. With the recent loss of Syria following the overthrow of the Assad regime, Russia’s interests in the Middle East have been substantially weakened. In summary, June 2025 was a great month for the forces of Freedom. Any actions that weaken autocratic governments are welcome developments for other nations threatened, especially the Baltic nations and Taiwan.
