In the latest phase of the Iran operation, the Hal sounds like he should be wearing a turban and all his money is in dinars. I have the pulled quote below which is absolutely laughable in his stating America is struggling with a new reality in the Mideast.
The Hal posted another US ship was hit with KIA’s. Not a good thing to tell American families their loved ones might be dead to get donations from suckers.
7:12 PM EDT -- The U.S. Navy and Air Force are bombing the Iranian-owned Harz Island in the Persian Gulf, from which 90% of Iran’s oil trade is conducted.
The real problem is that Washington cannot accept the new reality in the Strait of Hormuz: the era of uncontested US command is over.
Now, the United States is struggling to digest the fact that its bases, fleets and command centers across the region and also its allies are no longer untouchable and have no immunity.
Meet you on the other side for the short version.
7:46 PM EDT -- * UNVERIFIED AT THIS TIME * -- The US has reportedly bombed a power plant in Bushehr.
7:54 PM EDT -- A railway bridge was targeted in Golestan Province, Northern Iran, while the US was striking parts of southern Iran. Iranian analysts suggest that it could have been struck by Israeli jets from Caspian Sea or internal Saboteurs. IRAN VOWS “Infrastructure war will begin shortly!!”
-- Explosions were heard in the cities of Gorgan and Aqqala, northern Iran
-- New report from Iran’s Press TV: “Around 10 explosions were heard in Chabahar and Konarak.”
8:41 PM EDT -- The US has begun striking bridges, hitting the Aq Tekeh Khan Bridge, in the Golestan Province of Northern Iran, and the Gorgan railway line, per Fars. This is the deepest US strike into Iran since March and the first US strike on Iranian transportation infrastructure since the April ceasefire.
The strategy in this is simple in what is being hit. US forces are pounding the Tehranian threat to gulf shipping.
What the Hal did not see when he posted a few days ago that B 52’s had all pulled out of England for America is the FACT THAT SHORT RANGE BOMBERS CAN NOT BE STOPPED BY IRAN. That is why the Navy is engaged and not the US Air Force.
To explain thee above, when transportation is hit, and it is hit in the north, it means the strategy is to isolate the region, meaning no Russian Caspian supplies, and that would mean the reverse in no Tehranian munitions and troops entering the north.
This indicates US operations are being engaged in Northern Iran. To put it bluntly, this is where the Kurds are and others, and there is some kind of operational base region being established to put a smashing blow into the temple head of Iran. This is a tactical measure in Tehran is in the north, so gain operational control and Tehran with the turbanheads are in physical jeopardy.
The Lame Cherry continues to be very pleased with the Pentagon war gaming under Sec. or War Hegseth. This is professional and is moving exactly in the positions it should.
For the record, President Donald Trump should get the Nobel Prize for Economics. His diplomatic maneuvers to stabilize the world economics and to provide oil is exemplary. His overall battle plan has been exacting and with purpose.
I do hope the Pentagon puts the turbanheads into the dark ages again in knocking out the electric plants. When Iran has it’s oil production terminated, it has lost it’s last clients in Russia selling things and Chinaman gold.
President Trump is showing himself as a strategist of the highest order.
LEON PANETTA: You know, I’ve always been concerned about security issues with this kind of plane that’s built by another country, regardless of the fact that that country, we may have good relations with that country. The fact is that for from a security point of view, you have got to be concerned that there are going to be efforts to try to gather intelligence.
And I’m sure they’ve reviewed the whole plane. But as somebody involved with security, I would be very concerned about making sure that the president’s security is protected.
The only way to do that is by having that plane made in the United States and carrying the equipment that is provided by the United States, so that we can assure that the president is not only secure, but safe. So I don’t, I don’t think there’s any question that there are security concerns here. What they are we don’t know, but I’m sure that’s involved.
KATY TUR: Have you ever heard of a situation where the president switches planes like this? I mean, I know usually there are two air force ones. You know, one is not called air force one. When the president travels, there’s always a backup.
Usually there’s if there is a problem, there’s it’s a maintenance issue, right? Could it just be a maintenance issue?
PANETTA: Well, it’s a, it’s a brand new plane. If there’s a maintenance issue with a brand new plane that raises even more concerns. I don’t think this is about maintenance.
This is a cover story of some kind to try to deploy one plane to Britain and have the president return to the old plane that was Air Force One there. There’s more going on. I think the war in Iran may have some something to do with it. He is in Turkey. It’s right next to Iran.
There does have to be some real concerns about the president’s security. Even he himself basically admitted the concern about his personal security. So for for all of those reasons, I think that a decision was made to try to protect the safety of the presidency.
The President is being threatened and this is by Iran. It is time to end the wetware in Iran.
Nuff Said
