Haviv Rettig Gur: 以色列对伊朗的军事行动展现了其卓越的规划和执行能力。通过摩萨德特工在伊朗境内建立工厂，制造无人机，并在以色列飞机飞越伊拉克领空时同步发射，成功摧毁了伊朗大量的弹道导弹发射器。伊朗对以色列的主要威胁来自于其庞大的导弹储备，但以色列很早就意识到，伊朗的瓶颈在于发射器的数量不足。因此，以色列的防御战略重点在于摧毁这些发射器，迫使伊朗不断部署新的发射器。以色列还迅速摧毁了伊朗的防空系统，获得了伊朗领空的制空权，并开始追踪和摧毁伊朗革命卫队的战略资产，包括高级指挥官和军事顾问。以色列空军的技术创新也令人瞩目，例如，他们研发了能够进行弹道轨迹飞行的导弹，大大增加了F-15战斗机的射程。此外，以色列还成功地将导弹安装在未设计用于携带导弹的F-35战斗机上。这些技术成就甚至超越了美国的能力。最令人震惊的是，以色列情报部门成功渗透到伊朗领导层，精心策划了一次针对伊朗革命卫队空军高层指挥官的会议，并成功实施了轰炸。这表明，伊朗国内存在大量对现政权不满的人，以及各个部门之间的矛盾，摩萨德能够有效地利用这些因素。总而言之，以色列展现了一个有能力的国家所具备的全部实力，而伊朗政权的不称职则暴露无遗。
