The coordination and planning that has gone into these strikes has been remarkable. That this board is unwilling to even ack 1/1000th of it doesn't surprise me in the slightest.
Oh, I think that the military execution of the attack plan has been quite good, as far as it goes. We seem to have had good intelligence on the whereabouts of our targets and have struck them forcefully without any problems.
I'm not sure why you think that would lead anyone to "back 1/1000th" of it (I assume the intended word was to "back" it), based on that basis. The reason that past Presidents from Reagan to Biden (and Trump v. 1.0) have not decapitated Iranian leadership or military capabilities haven't really been because we lacked the ability to effectively use air power to attack them, but because the consequences of doing so are wildly uncontrollable. Moreso if you only use air power and don't actually invade with ground troops, which would likely be a necessary (though as Iraq has taught us not sufficient) condition for being able to control developments in the country.
I think it was a foolhardy move to attack Iran like this, and that doesn't really change simply because the attack was well executed.
