I am a bit surprised they managed to get some fighters up (apparently) to conduct a strike. I would have assumed anything leaving the Iranian airspace bubble would have been intercepted and destroyed immediately. This is NOT the slam dunk the MAGAts are trying to portray it as so far. And as far as I know, the Iranian ground forces are still firmly in control of the country. Did they not coordinate with dissident groups beforehand?

The onyl reason Venezuela went like it did is because there was a compliant dissident already highly placed in the government that wanted Maduro out as well.
