has astonished the world again. Saturday鈥檚 attack on three Iranian nuclear sites was the boldest use of American power since George W. Bush launched his shock-and-awe campaign against Saddam Hussein in 2003.
The effectiveness and consequences of the daring raid remains unclear. We don鈥檛 yet know how badly Iran鈥檚 facilities were hit, or how much fissile material and equipment had been evacuated. Nor do we yet know what comes next. Does Iran plan further retaliation after Monday鈥檚 limited strike against an American base in Qatar? How long will Israel continue to follow up the attack, and how effective will more Israeli attacks on regime facilities be? Will this be the last direct American attack on Iran? Will Mr. Trump be dragged into a 鈥渇orever war鈥� of his own?
