The attack was clearly timed to cause as few casualties as possible. Both the US and Iran - for all their rhetoric - do not want a wider conflict. So maybe a line can be drawn under this matter for now.

*If* US casualties are zero or minimal and *if* it does lead to a de-escalation quickly, then I'm personally calling BS on the entire thing as co-ordinated PR pantomime. Military false-flagging for civilian catharsis.
