The closest parallel to this was after 9-11. Other than due to a significant natural disaster, the FAA hasn't ever randomly closed down airspace like this.
After 9/11, airspace was only closed for three days. Closing airspace for no apparent reason like this is very unprecedented and very extreme.
The Federal Aviation Administration reopened the airspace around El Paso International Airport in Texas on Wednesday morning, just hours after it announced a 10-day closure that would have grounded all flights to and from the airport....
Rep. Veronica Escobar, a Democrat whose district includes El Paso, urged the FAA to lift the restrictions in a statement Wednesday morning. There was no advance notice given to her office, the city of El Paso or airport operations, she said.
“The highly consequential decision by FAA to shut down the El Paso Airport for 10 days is unprecedented and has resulted in significant concern within the community,” Escobar said. “From what my office and I have been able to gather overnight and early this morning there is no immediate threat to the community or surrounding areas.” ...
Are there any sane and competent adults in charge?
Comment:
Are we about to invade Mexico so that trump can divert our attention from the exploding revelations in the epstein files????
Maybe it's just a power move. "We can do whatever we want and there's nothing you can do about it". Or maybe it was Sundownin' Don flailing around orders again.

Who knows.
TV news: It has to do with DHS and/or DoW using laser weapons against Mexican cartels and/or test targets. Fascists

I could've sworn we obliterated Iran's nuclear program last year.
A massive Armada is heading to Iran. It is moving quickly, with great power, enthusiasm, and purpose. It is a larger fleet, headed by the great Aircraft Carrier Abraham Lincoln, than that sent to Venezuela. Like with Venezuela, it is, ready, willing, and able to rapidly fulfill its mission, with speed and violence, if necessary. Hopefully Iran will quickly "Come to the Table" and negotiate a fair and equitable deal - NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS - one that is good for all parties. Time is running out, it is truly of the essence! As I told Iran once before, MAKE A DEAL! They didn't, and there was "Operation Midnight Hammer," a major destruction of Iran. The next attack will be far worse! Don't make that happen again. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
He can't remember more than a half hour or so into the past these days so he likely forgot.
So he's gonna go to war without Congressional approval.
WTF is in those Epstein files?
Eamus Catuli~AC 000000000101010202020303010304 020405....Ahhhh, forget it, it's gonna be a while.
The "negotiations" and ultimatums have been . As with Venezuela the US does not commit this amount of resources without already being engaged in an op that has been planned and initiated for months, probably beginning with the earlier attack if not sooner. All this time Dementia Don was whining about not getting the Nobel Peace Prize.
A speaker at a local event, probably a professor, said, "Once a war starts it is too late to stop it." So, we are now at war with Iran if not other Muslim nations. Thanks, MAGA.

An illegal and undeclared war.

Korea may not have been illegal, but it was undeclared. Otherwise, "illegal and undeclared" describes every US war since WW2.

Apparently Iran is attempting to reconstitute their nuclear program. That is a no-brainer to not allow this. Most countries understand the consequences of mutual destruction. The folks running Iran don't care with their beliefs. If they develop a nuclear weapon - they will use it.

But, but, their nuclear program was obliterated.
Just yesterday.
Leavitt: "There's many reasons and arguments one could make for a strike against Iran. The president had a very successful operation…[that] totally obliterated Iran's nuclear facilities."
Is it urgent?
You think they're going to more success this week than they've had in the last forty years?

I posted "reconstituted". I sure this is not a surprise knowing Iran.

Let's not forget that there was a strong and successful Obama treaty in place that butthurt TRE45QN cancelled. Moron.

We'd be lucky to get it back again and DonOld can declare a great victory.
Not gonna happen.
* There are no guarantors this time like Russia, France and the UK.
* Iran won't be fooled again.
* The Cretin in Chief has already committed massive resources to an attack violating US and international law.
Sigh.
