Following reports of U.S. casualties and hostages taken in Israel, the U.S. Aircraft Carrier, USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78), as well as the other Ships in Carrier Strike Group 12 which includes Ticonderoga-Class Cruiser USS Normandy (CG-60), as well as Arleigh Burke-Class Destroyers USS Ramage (DDG-61), USS McFaul (DDG-74), and USS Thomas Hudner (DDG-116), are reportedly heading towards the Eastern Mediterranean.
(Military) – […] Along with the Ford the U.S. is sending the cruiser USS Normandy, destroyers USS Thomas Hudner, USS Ramage, USS Carney, and USS Roosevelt and the U.S. is augmenting Air Force F-35, F-15, F-16, and A-10 fighter aircraft squadrons in the region.
“The U.S. maintains ready forces globally to further reinforce this deterrence posture if required,” Austin said in a statement.
In addition, the Biden administration “will be rapidly providing the Israel Defense Forces with additional equipment and resources, including munitions. The first security assistance will begin moving today and arriving in the coming days,” Austin said.
The Norfolk, Virginia-based carrier strike group was already in the Mediterranean. Last week it was conducting naval exercises with Italy in the Ionian Sea. The carrier is in its first full deployment. (read more)
The White House released this rather obtuse sounding statement about a call between Pudding Brain and Prime Minister Netanyahu.
WHITE HOUSE – President Biden spoke this morning with Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel. The President again expressed deep sympathy for all those missing, wounded, and killed, and pledged his full support for the Government and people of Israel in the face of an unprecedented and appalling assault by Hamas terrorists. They discussed the taking of hostages by Hamas terrorists, including entire families, the elderly, and young children. The President emphasized that there is no justification whatsoever for terrorism, and all countries must stand united in the face of such brutal atrocities.
President Biden updated the Prime Minister on the intensive diplomatic engagement undertaken by the United States over the last 24 hours in support of Israel. The President also conveyed that additional assistance for the Israeli Defense Forces is now on its way to Israel with more to follow over the coming days. The leaders also discussed ongoing efforts to ensure that no enemies of Israel believe they can or should seek advantage from the current situation.
The two leaders committed to stay in regular contact over the coming days. (read more)
There’s “no justification for terrorism”, and they are going to keep in “regular contact.”
Wow, such strength! /sarc
We really need President Trump back in office. I mean, seriously. Can you imagine a terrorist organization or nation taking an American hostage while President Trump is in office? Not only would he unleash the hounds of hell upon them, but he’d also bankrupt any entity who even thought about coming to the defense of a terrorist.
The Mossad and IDF created and control Hamas. The IDF and Hamas are allies fighting together to overthrow Assad in Syria and kick out the Russians.
How could Mossad not know that Hamas was planning such a major operation when they have so many assets inside Hamas and Gaza?

Those are all valid questions that need to be addressed.
Woefully unprepared with an utter lack of armament and patrols on the border.
Many questions. Few answers, at this time.
Great question!!
And so IDF closed their eyes when Hamas took down the Dome? Nothing surprises me anymore.
Cyber attack interfered with multiple defense / security systems. The graph was posted on twitter early today. I didn’t save a link thinking that would become common info. IDK if that story was squelched or proven false.
Man, go to Frank Gaffney’s Securing America. Find Caroline Glick’s past episodes and also last week with Yorum Ettinger. Your question will be answered in DETAIL and others there on a variety of threats if you’re interested. Then search back episodes on the FULL range of existential threats to this Heartland.

Hamas = islam.
That’s like saying Irish Republican Army => Catholicism.
Original Islam? Yes. No doubt, and the more I think about it the more I’m convinced, now that I am satisfied that demons actually exist, that the verses really were Satanic in origin. Just like the fallen Watchers in the Book of Enoch, things were whispered in human ears to cause death and chaos.
Now we have Sunni, Shia, Sufi, Indonesian moderate version, Wahhabis, etc. There is considerable internal and doctrinal division. And religious wars are some of the worst.
President Trump did a fine job of getting along with Islamic nations. The problem here is the Biden regime, the British intelligence services, the multi-national ngo’s, and the funders of terrorism (see list just mentioned). And very possibly a Netanyahu need to “unify” his country a la George W. Bush and 9 11.
If we had President Trump back in office, he would have peace in 24 hours.
To do a ‘deep dive’ on Islam, it isn’t what we – and 90 percent of Muslims – are told. Its higher sacred texts say plainly that it is a Gnostic religion, one of many layers of ‘hidden’ knowledge, or Gnosis. The Koran is for the masses, who can’t read it partly because of its strange language, and partly because, as Robert Pencer says, reading it is like overhearing a conversation not meant for you, by talkers who don’t care that you are there.
As for the gnosis, its a moon goddess religion (Arabs always wrorshipped the moon, and stones). Sufis have a lot of this gnostic knowledge, but the Sharia lawyers have a lot more. See the videos of Lloyd De Jongh on youtube for details. The one with him and Sam Shamoun is excellent. He also talks w Kennedy Hall in two videos.
Israel acknowledges it is helping Syrian rebel fighters

This is a major intelligence failure by Mossad if you are incorrect. But the larger question remains as to what to do about Iran’s nuclear program. Seemingly this latest episode of the IRG is a muscle flexing exercise that has escalated to include in your face terror and kidnapping instead of previous rocket attacks only. However one worrisome element not being mentioned enough is the use of American weapons retrieved in Ukraine and Afghanistan. So, is this a provocation/trap by Tehran hoping to entice an attack on Iran’s nuclear program by Tel Aviv? We all know it’s coming. Perhaps the mullahs hope to know when it’s coming. They think they can detect the F-35’s which are sure to be used. But detecting and gaining a missle lock are two very different things. Israel needs to hold off a while but not too long. Their legitimacy will only last so long on the world stage.
Oh double fudge!!!
We have an Idiot in WH and a bunch of idiot loony tunes that are guiding him. They believe men can have periods and have babies. That is how much trouble we are in!
Dear God,

Pudding Brain – oh, how appropriate! Much better than “flashbang” or any of the other descriptive nicknames I’ve heard!
The problem of the current illegitimate administration arming our enemies and enemies of our allies is a serious issue that needs to be addressed.
The Department of Snake/State needs to have the vipers removed, and Congress needs to get a grip and stop the flow of money.
“The Department of Snake/State needs to have the vipers removed, and Congress needs to get a grip and stop the flow of money.”
the DoS will not stop until they are removed by the people – and Congress is about to show us just how owned by AIPAC they are. you thought blind support for Uke was a bad thing? wait until you get a load of THIS angle from the warpigs. that printing press will burn out before they stop funding this one.
just remember – they want you to pay attention to over there – because over here is what matters.
my enemy is in Washington DC. not palestine, moscow, or tehran.
Congress knows what exactly what happens when you cross AIPAC. Jimmy Traficant tried to expose them and he ended up in prison, and when released he continued to do the same.
He ended up running over himself with his own tractor.
Pudding brain biden. I like that much better than lets go brandon.
How about lets go pudding brain.😂😂😂

US activley joins in and OPEC could embargo (again). With no reserves and minimal oil/refinery production we’re off to the rationing races – fuel, heat, food, mobility. Don’t look at the big noisy going on, look to what they do next.
Maybe Putin would sell us oil,…or India would resell us Russian oil, lol.
he VVP sell oil for some time through INDIA to EU…..
I found this very interesting. Also there have been conversations linking the US weapons left in Afghanistan by the illegitimate Biden regime ending up in Hamas hands via Pakistan intelligence. Pakistan was involved in 9/11 with the CIA & saudi Arabia.

Every time there is any reference to the Demented Fraud on the world stage, it’s cringe worthy. Absolutely this terrorism bs would not be happening with PDT rightfully in the WH. The entire world would be more peaceful with a whole lot less people dead. The scariest part of the Fraud’s puppet masters getting in to this fight is that it’s an open invitation for a number of nations to directly challenge the US knowing its being run by pathetic eunuchs.
I can understand how tiresome it is to have something this horrific unfold and then to have people immediately turn to politics, but people are dying here – men, women and children. These barbarians are raping civilian women and caging their children, God protect these poor little ones. The terrorists are openly thanking the Islamic Republic for providing them the means to commit this barbarity. And as with the southern border, the Marxist U.S. administration is directly in the line of blame for what we’re witnessing.
Does anyone believe for a moment that if Trump were still president, holding the office to which he was duly elected, maintaining crippling sanctions on Iran and killing off their terrorist leaders, that Iran would feel the leisure and security to foment a middle east war? It’s almost become cliche, but as has been said often, “stolen elections have consequences.” And those politicians and their prostituted media organs who continue to pretend that the steal that we saw in plain sight somehow was a figment of our imaginations must, along with the terrorist barbarians, own what is happening in Israel right now. They have to somehow rationalize that the peace we had under Donald Trump was somehow worse than the carnage we see here and also in Ukraine. They have to continue to drink the Kool-Aid, else how could they possibly sleep at night?
A seared conscience is the price of such depths of self-delusion, a price that innocents, who never asked to be part of this Deep State game where even children are pawns on the chessboard, are forced to pay.
Innocents, men, women and children have been subject to the most horrific barbarities, with murder being a blessing, for many, many years; in Syria, Iraq, Ukraine, and the list goes on and on.
Getting distracted by this latest op, instead of focusing on the SOURCE, is a rediculous manipulation.
This crap continues, until WE face reality, and stop it.
CORRECT ANSWER.
my enemy (and the enemy of liberty) is in Washington DC. DO NOT ALLOW them to distract you away from that simple fact.
Exactly! This is a deliberate distraction for Biden to turn attention away from the Democrat’s Ukrainian Disaster.
Mossad is just helping out Uncle Joe in the White House?
Biden administration funded these terrorists. Wag the dog to distract USA of what is happening here in our own country such as inflation, illegal immigration, and rampant crime, with no respect around the world!
As I have repeated here many a time, the good Jewish people have more than likely worse fraudulent “friends in the US Congress” & leadership & media, than the traitors and criminals we have as our leaders,media, & politicians. We should be teaming up against our common enemies.
And where is Chuck Schumer right now? In Shanghai , China along with FIVE other Senators–Mike Crapo, Bill Cassidy, John Kennedy (!!!!!), Jon Ossof, and Maggie Hassan. https://www.reuters.com/world/schumer-starts-china-trip-amid-tension-with-us-hopes-meet-xi-2023-10-07/.
Senator Kennedy is much more akin to Louisiana’s other senator, Bill Cassidy, than he’d like us to believe.

Still not buying the line that the entire Israeli security apparatus failed. They have a real for goodness sakes security wall. Even if the electronic security monitors went down all at once, and that would be many systems, the wall is still manned with many Mk 5 eyeballs. Were those units removed prior to this attack?
It feels to me like this incursion is rather convenient for the agendas of some big players. For one thing it may give the U.S. an out in Ukraine. I could be very wrong but if not these people are sure desperate for a war they think they can win.
“these people are sure desperate for a war they think they can win.”
and we shoudl remember that when they come calling for our children to be slaughtered for their evil.
will we comply and consent, YET AGAIN?
my enemy is in Washington DC. not tehran, not palestine, and not moscow.
Ukraine! You win a chicken dinner.
I wonder how this decision got made:
a. Gen. Milley’s replacement called his Chinese counter-part for confirmation.
b. Obama’s finger puppet in the Delaware Beach House made a command decision.
c. Jill said “let’s roll”.
Please forgive my snark, not sure what came over me.
Everything this regime does is in furtherance of the destruction of this country. Since this is my belief, I wonder what they are up to with this move or what might come next.
How about the digital currency being mandatory to prevent the misuse of money for funding terrorism?
they want us to forget that OUR ENEMY IS IN WASHINGTON DC.
and soon they will come calling for our children to be served up on their altar.
Yeah
OK…watch what happens next. Biden will begin mass transporting all of the Palestinians back here to the good ole’ USA. They will begin by pretending to separate the Hamas bubbas from the Palestinians (which can’t be done) and then just haul them here by the thousands…just like he did for the Afgans. Anybody want to take bets?
Now I know why they sent an aircraft carrier. Refugee evacuation. A humanitarian mission.
Oh snap , I hope not .
Now that we’re focused on the Middle East and Ukraine, China can saunter into Taiwan and take it.
A-10 pilots are chomping at the bit over this one.
Thank GOD we still have Warthogs…….
They could tear up the Gaza strip……
And the retards in the Whitehouse and Pentagon want to get rid of them….
Have they come up with an alternative to depleted uranium rounds for those?
A military expert might be needed to answer your question, but the Internet indicates the gun was developed to fire Tungsten Bullets.
****
From The NationalInterest site, [July 15, 2020]
“General Electric developed the GAU-8’s 30-millimeter shells concurrently with the basic gun design. In order to punch through the armor of a main battle tank, the ammunition needed a hard metal penetrator. The optimal material for this was tungsten, but the majority of the world’s tungsten supply was in China and the Soviet Union.
As a result an alternative was found — depleted uranium, a by-product of the enrichment of uranium for nuclear power reactors. It boasts approximately 60 percent of the radioactivity of naturally-occurring uranium. As an added benefit, fragments burst into flames when they break off from the main projectile. General Electric’s promotional material is careful to generically describe the depleted uranium as a “heavy metal.”
General Electric developed two types of ammunition based on Oerlikon’s 30-by-173-millimeter 304 RK round. An armor-piercing incendiary round designated PGU-14/B. And the PGU-13/B, a high-explosive incendiary. A-10s carry five PGU-14/B rounds for every one PGU-13/B round. Both shells feature aluminum alloy cases in order to minimize their weight and increase the plane’s payload.”
*****************
Other sites describe how dangerous it is now days to fly the A-10 Warthog, in areas protected by computer aided Missiles and anti-aircraft automatic weapons. … The pilots are extremely brave men.
**********************************************************
There’s an ~unrelated theory about Tungsten. … The conspiracy believers say, “The world’s largest ~ Tungsten supply is in Fort Knox, Kentucky, and has been plated with Gold.” … For some reason, our own Politicians claim it would take too long to audit our Gold Reserves, and also audit the privately owned Federal Reserve.
why are they serving this illegitimate regime? why don’t they come home and help free the people?
Saudi Arabia’s alleged support for Hamas must indicate the end of the Abraham Accords “Peace Agreement.” Biden’s Handlers are still trying to erase every one of P Trump’s accomplishments and policies.
I am concerned about how capable the carriers and destroyers are of defending against massive rocket attacks from Iran.
The savage, Hamas brutality that was shown against women and children on various videos before the blurring and other censoring occurred certainly gave us a better idea how terrifying it was for Lara Logan to be helpless and viciously abused by a similar mob of evil indoctrinated rapists and bullies AKA as Hamas’ self gratifying mob of opportunists and extremists. And Fox fired Lara.
Like other evil fools in the past, Hamas’ initial gratification and howls of success will soon turn to death and misery for them.
“I am concerned about how capable the carriers and destroyers are of defending against massive rocket attacks from Iran.”
Or how about against the drones?
Ships and Tanks are obsolete. Just watching the Military Summary Channel on youtube, drones are the future of modern warfare and Iran does a good job of producing them.
Especially since Obama dropped one in their lap to reverse engineer.
So true!
The hot war always follows the economic war.
I thought Pence had reached the lowest level of deceit, betrayal and opportunism but I was wrong.
This self proclaimed “virtuous religious saint” has chosen to use the suffering of the helpless Israelis and other victims of the Hamas barbarity to make cheap and false political points. What a disgrace!
Traitor Pence is trying to provoke a belligerent response from President Trump so filthy Jack Smith can place a gag order on him. Traitor Pence is filthy Jack Smith’s star witness in J-6 case which is why he was not charged in with possession of classified documents.
This even stuns me and I am quite cynical. Pence blames Trump for the attacks.
Talking 👉 points: next debate..
Probably. I wonder if the DOJ will bring more charges against him for it.
correction:
Anti-Trump talking points: next debate
You can sign-up and volunteer for Ukraine or the IDF anytime, Mike!
Huh. Didn’t he recently say that America was not his “concern?”
the $6 billion dollar war Biden funded
Globalists just opened second front in WWIII and it will draw many more into the coming global conflagration
“In the realm of geopolitical events, things are almost never as they appear.
The messaging being sent by the media is no longer mere “news.” What we receive from them are carefully crafted narratives meant to advance certain agendas. The same event, in fact, can carry multiple narratives often diametrically opposed to each other because the narratives are tailored to specific audiences and loaded with explosive words and images meant to trigger emotions in those audiences depending on their prior conditioning.
And the devastating attack on Israel Friday night was no exception.”

I went across the James River yesterday and there were 5 aircraft carriers sitting in the Norfolk navel port. 5 plus it looked like a destroyer.
How many aircraft carriers does America possess?
more relevant question:
how many in deployable-ready condition and with deployable-ready support fleets?
And airwings.
btw…readiness is probably a better metric than deployable.
enough to ruin a lot of countries who probably didn’t deserve it.
By my count eleven. With several follow-on Ford class under construction or ordered.
If what I saw is correct and your count is correct. 1/2 the fleet is in port…. The picture doesn’t look like the world is on fire according to our military.
The US 6th fleet always maintains 2 aircraft carrier groups in the med. If one is North, the other is south, usually. It’s not a big deal to pull one carrier group from its normal patrol into a specific area. It’s still patrolling, but at closer range to its mission target.
Israelis Question “Catastrophic” Intelligence Failure
SUNDAY, OCT 08, 2023 – 11:35 AM
Never in history has Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad been able to kill and kidnap hundreds of Israelis in a single day. Saturday’s assault was clearly well-planned, highly coordinated, and well-armed, and very likely was in preparation for months or even years. The Times of Israel is reporting an Israeli death toll of over 600, with the military confirming over 100 now in Palestinian captivity.
Israeli officials and media pundits now want answers: how could Israel’s most celebrated and storied intelligence organization Mossad have missed it? How did the military not have any foreknowledge that it was coming? How did the Gaza jihadists overrun several IDF outposts so swiftly and easily?
Chuck Freilich, Israel’s former deputy national security adviser, has told Politico: “This is a catastrophic failure in regards to Gaza.”
“It’s a failure in terms of intelligence, operationally,” Freilich said. “It’s clear we were caught totally unprepared by this. The divisional headquarters responsible for Gaza was occupied, they’re in disarray, and so the whole response has been delayed.”
He predicts far-reaching “political ramifications”…
“There’s always a short-term rallying around the flag. But once the dust settles we’ll have major political ramifications,” Freilich said. “After the Yom Kippur war, it took three and a half years for [then Israeli Prime Minister] Golda Meir’s government to be toppled — I don’t think it will take that long this time.”
Former IDF intelligence chief Amos Yadlin compared Saturday’s raids to the “intelligence failure” of the Yom Kippur War – which famously saw the Egyptian and Syrian armies mount a surprise attack on Tel Aviv forces.
The common Israeli public has been voicing outrage as well….
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/israelis-question-catastrophic-intel-failure-after-unthinkable-hamas-assault
I would gather that the Mossad is working against the Israeli people’s interests just like the CIA & Co has been against America and an early move of theirs was to assassinate General Patton
In another words, Sock Puppet JoeBama Biden’s regime is adding insult to injury by sending spectators to the massacre the HIS REGIME financed and enabled … how white of him.
Big show. Is this our Woke navy?
It seems Israeli intelligence was caught by complete surprise. My impression was they have agents infiltrated within Hamas in Gaza, West Bank, Hezbollah in Lebanon and throughout hostile countries like Iran to keep up on what is being planned. Apparently this is not the case, as this Hamas operation is extensive and was well planned. Keeping the absolute surprise of the offensive is a remarkable accomplishment. Moving arms and equipment into Gaza and pre positioning the gunmen/personnel for the assault without any notice by Israel indicates a breakdown and crisis for the Israeli defense forces.
The Uniparty controlled regime that operates the entire US government has been successfully alienating virtually every nation outside our vassal states in NATO/EU, Canada, Australia, South Korea and Japan. Our multiple undeclared and failed wars of aggression against a multitude of nations, including the hot war by proxy with Russia has drawn disparate and unnecessarily created adversaries together, including accelerating the BRICS project to free economies from US Dollar dominance. The series of 12 sanctions cycles against Russia has strengthened their economy (while destroying what is left of the debt/leveraging loans based EU economy) and motivated Russia to ramp up high tech weapons development and ramping up industrial scale ammunition and drone production to levels that the US/EU vassal states are unable to match for years to come. It is clear the US has lost the arms race, and our military is absolutely incapable of fighting a modern war of attrition. Our weapon systems are obsolete, we have no industrial depth with the necessary qualified workers to manufacture war material at the quantities necessary for winning a conflict with a peer nation and we have zero competent or experienced high ranking officers to manage a real war. We have lost a lot of mercenaries and officers directing Ukrainian forces in their incompetent violent aggression against the ethnic Russian regions who chose to part ways from the blatantly fascist regime controlled western Ukraine. There is absolutely no way the public would tolerate the staggering casualty rates that would result from sending in brigade sized American combat units to the meatgrinder conditions in the Donetsk region.
The Uniparty regime has managed to isolate America from previous relatively friendly countries like Saudi Arabia and Egypt, further isolating Israel and endangering our uninvited military units still deployed in eastern Syria.
The debacle in Afghanistan is looking more and more like a prelude to the catastrophic destruction of the post WWII late American Empire. Israel is very isolated and relying on American military “might” is appears sketchy and dangerous.

What are your thoughts?
If ever there was a time to flex our military muscle, this is it.
NOT flex, which is BS … the operative word is USE, if anything were to be done.
This is a useless symbolic symbol.
Then there is the “promise” of munitions we likely DO NOT have and are likely the wrong type needed for this conflict.
…afraid that ‘muscle’ has atrophied.
Given our leadership…who would be a recipient of our military muscle?
Israel or Hamas?
A USN carrier battle-group is a mighty and fearsome thing … BTDT … but it’s completely useless in a block-to-block ground campaign in Gaza. And providing the Israelis with ammunition and “other military supplies” that we don’t have thanks to our dysfunctional “government” policies and the waste we’ve experienced in Ukraine makes that gesture an exercise in empty political posturing …
Bottom line: the Jewish state, in realpolitik, is on its own. I hope and trust they’re better prepared than we are w/ millions of military-age illegals scattered across the USA waiting for their “GO” signal from the handlers/NGO’s who brought them here …
Valerie Jarrett is smiling.
Midway was real now it’s a show of nothing but video of dementia of strength with no guns loaded.
The Hamas attack on Israel is horrific and evil. But let’s put aside the heavy emotional response and take the forty thousand foot view. Who benefits? What’s in it for Hamas? Aside from a brief pyrrhic victory and certain eradication, nothing. Iran? They don’t have their nukes yet so their still vulnerable. If it’s Israel’s Pearl Harbor was it known in advance (as ours was) and allowed to happen to provide opportunities to further an agenda or perhaps it serves multiple agendas for multiple players. I pray one of the agendas does not include WW3.

The ammunition for the military has reportedly made a stop in Ukraine before making its way to Hamas and Iran.

Rubin And Tribe Under Fire For Using The Massacre In Israel For Bizarre Attacks On Political Figures | ZeroHedge
That includes the Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin who appeared to blame the GOP for inviting the attack and Professor Laurence Tribe who suggested (and later retracted) that the war was actually a “wag-the-dog” operation by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to distract from corruption allegations.
Rubin (who goes by the moniker “Jennifer Truthful, Not Neutral Rubin”) immediately attempted to use the attack as another attack on Republicans: “How about this: With US House in chaos and US military promotions on hold, Hamas struck. Republicans’ weakness invites terror.”
How about this: With US House in chaos and US military promotions on hold, Hamas struck. Republicans’ weakness invites terror.
Now Rubin is suggesting that Hamas decided to launch this massive attack because there is an acting Speaker in the House until next week. It appears that Hamas was just waiting for the motion to vacate to pass.
— Jennifer Truthful, Not Neutral Rubin (@JRubinBlogger) October 7, 2023
Putting aside the effort to use this tragedy as a political cudgel domestically, Rubin ignores the fact that the motion to vacate the chair succeeded due to a unanimous Democratic vote and just eight dissenting Republicans. The Democrats wanted to vacate the chair even though McCarthy was being criticized by the dissenters for working with them and they will now likely receive a far more strident speaker.
Rubin has also called for expelling Republican members, who voted against certifying the 2020 election. She further declared that “we have to collectively, in essence, burn down the Republican Party. We have to level them because if there are survivors, if there are people who weather this storm, they will do it again.”
The Washington Post has repeatedly failed to take down or correct columns containing false claims by Rubin. Instead, it has run her calls to end impartiality and neutrality in journalism.

What about Jennifer Rubin being expelled by burning at the stake?

Last night Fox aired an interview with a Republican Congressman from Florida who hoped that Kevin McCarthy would “throw his hat in the ring” to be re-elected as House Speaker. No doubt many others will be getting on this bandwagon.
the pronoun Rainbows are on their way, makeup kit and all!
Oh Boy! Here comes the suicide dinghy flotilla. Hope the fan-tail squid can shoot.
I bet they knew the attack was coming. Sorry but knowing the Pentagon has been infiltrated by Iranian spies makes me think this.
Joe will have to buy munitions back from Zelensky at 100 times their value.
We could have sent Iran their $6B in the form of Bunker Busters dropped in Tehran’s mullahs.
All hat and no cattle.
Did Hawaii ever get money for the fires?
Heh. A-10 go B-R-R-R-R!
The Biden Admin knew exactly what Iran would do with another $6B before they released it. Why would our neocons bait Russia into attacking Ukraine by dangling NATO membership in Zelensky’s face? Why would we release $6B in cash knowing Iran would ship rockets to Hamas and Hezbollah? What’s next in Asia? All to present a three-front imperative to the electorate to not vote out the current administration? to suspend the vote entirely? This is major bullshit.
I’ve noticed Margaret Brennan, in both interviews, has asked representatives of Israel, “What is success”… or simply put ‘What does victory look like?’
Notice the propagandist MSM NEVER asks that question about Ukraine…the narrative is “As long as it takes.”
I’m going to go out on a limb & predict that going forward, US support for Israeli aid will be contingent on Ukraine being funded too. That’s how the Dims & Neocons are going to strongarm the House into continuing the blank check without oversight funding of Ukraine.
Likely a trap set for republicans who want to support and fund Israel but not Ukraine. Problem is they are in no way the same problem.
NATO/Ukraine policy is backfiring – as planned.
It’s all connected.
Easily solved with a few helicopters in the first 30 minutes. Where were the IDF? Voices on the ground say the IDF were no where to be seen for 6 hours while Israelis were slaughtered. Who told the IDF to stand down?
You know it’s a deep state Psyop when Israel has its iron dome and IDF unavailable FOR SIX HOURS (they literally always have sensors and cameras and soldiers everywhere) and then Nikki Haley, meat puppet, declares this as an attack on America. They all want more war, destruction, more restrictions, more power and war profits. There is no way the USA should be involved in this facilitated war.
