No fake news or reports here…bill
Nice summary.
Glad that they haven’t fallen in to Westmoreland like defenses of winning that really isn’t. But it is also irksome not to have all the details available. (Ukraine propaganda often reminds me of Westmoreland.)
As long as the evil regime stays intact, all this winning will just be setbacks. They will rebuild and adapt. And X years from now there will be more trouble.
That is why I am also glad to hear about strikes that undermine the regime. Take away the ability to pay the stooges and take out the stooge roadblocks and command and control.
I have no clue what it will take to stop Iran from being a problem state, nor do I have any idea what we are doing besides statements like the ones above. But I sure hope it works out great.
I look forward to Iran’s unconditional surrender and the regime change. This can’t happen soon enough.
it will never happen. why would Iranian military agree to that? they would be signing their own death warrant. MIC knows that. so they demand unconditional surrender to ensure they never surrender and they can kill all Iranian military on battlefield with no prisoners.
What I want is the death or imprisonment of every member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, including every Mullah. The Iranian people will not be able to rise while the threat exist of being shot if they do. May Jesus forgive me for wanting to introduce them all to their 72 virgins.
Unless there’s a plan involving the Kurds or some other paramilitary force going into Iran on the ground to kill every one of the pieces of human garbage still holding the civilian population hostage, don’t see any meaningful end to the scum
I don’t either, and unfortunately, a meaningful percent of the people actually want to live under Islamic law. They aren’t going to rise up and overthrow the regime. And we definitely don’t need more refugees.
True story.
The horny mullah only has 72 deflowerings available in his heavenly haram. Then what can he look forward to? Those will be knocked out in a few days.
The horny mullah had a problem and had to have extensive surgery in the UK for his performing organ
Turns out the Ayatoolah may be gay
Trump briefed that Iran’s new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is probably gay — and president has priceless reaction
https://nypost.com/2026/03/16/us-news/trump-briefed-that-irans-new-supreme-leader-mojtaba-khamenei-is-probably-gay/
Donald Trump burst out laughing when he was briefed that Iran‘s incoming supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei may be gay, sources have told the New York Post.
Intelligence suggesting Mojtaba is homosexual raised doubts in his late father Ali Khamenei’s mind about his suitability to succeed him, sources said.
Others in the room found it ‘hilarious,’ and a senior intelligence official ‘has not stopped laughing about it for days,’ according to the Post.
The lurid claim was corroborated by two intelligence community officials and a third person close to the White House.
America’s spy agencies view the information as credible intelligence rather than gossip designed to undermine the 56-year-old ruler.
Mojtaba has had a long-term sexual relationship with his childhood tutor, two sources said.
A third source said intel indicated the affair was with a person who used to work for the Khamenei family.
Mojtaba, who is understood to have been gravely wounded in the strikes that killed his father on February 28, has made ‘aggressive’ sexual passes at men caring for him, potentially due to the effects of sedation, a source told the Post.

In this culture, it’s not “gay” if you are on top. The thing that is utterly beyond the pale is being the recipient of anal sex.
The reason this takes place is linked to the extreme penalties for having sex with women before marriage … which leads to severe sexual frustration for young men. And, of course, this will lead to extreme coping mechanisms, to include using goats raping men and non Muslim women
These attitudes predate Islam and are linked to the goal of preserving the genetic purity of the women in nomadic Bedouin tribes
And Iran absorbed these attitudes by virtue of Islam. So saying that Khamenei engaged in exploiting another male at some time in his life will not tarnish him at all
Their voices were silenced with bullets. Iran’s lost generation; did they die in vain?
The Australian has compiled the names and faces of 500 of those victims who have become part of the collective memory of a nation; the men, women and children who sought an “ordinary life” and whose stories must live on and serve as a reminder to the free world of the tyranny of the Iranian regime and the silence of too much of the West.
Among them are toddlers who died in their parents’ arms, couples who were killed together, men protecting the wounded and women giving them first aid. Babies were murdered in hospital and some victims killed themselves after the protests in despair at the deaths of loved ones – and the fear they had all been killed in vain.
Among those stories are those of Abolfazl Vahid Qazleh-Meydan, a 13-year-old boy who dreamed only of buying foreign sneakers, of Sepehr Shokri, a young athlete whose father searched for him among scores of bodies asking: “Sepehr, my son, where are you?”
Of Anila Aboutalebian Alid, just 8, who died when regime forces opened fire on her mother’s car as she tried to drive away from the protests, of Pouri Hamidi who committed suicide when he lost all hope that anything would change.
And, unbearably, 12-day-old twin brothers Amir and Hesam Hosseinpour, killed in a hospital and left unclaimed by their parents, who had almost certainly been killed in the same hospital and were also lying abandoned.
This list is not just a historical record but an elegy for memory, identity, and the continuity of a civilisation.

What fate awaits the Iranian footballers who claimed asylum in Australia then some were blackmailed by the regime to return
Interview with an Iranian woman who escaped some years ago and tells of life in Iran. She says Islam invaded Iran 1400 years ago and instituted Islamic rule
The Muslim conquest of Persia occurred between 633 AD and 651 AD, when the Rashidun Caliphate annexed the Sasanian Empire. This period marked the beginning of Islam’s spread in Persia which today is modern Iran. Prior to that, Iran (i.e. Persia) was Zoroastrian and warred with the Christian Byzantine empire (also called the eastern Holy Roman empire). In fact, the constant warring between those two is how they both got weakened to the point that the Muslims could invade from the south and conquer both of them.
Iran would NEVER surrender to the infidels of the United States…and would definitely NEVER surrender to the Israeli military.
Wipe them off the face of the earth. With extreme prejudice….
never ever underestimate adversaries/enemies…..they will never give up ….
You will not have and should not expect “all the details.” Loose lips sink ships. The enemy is listening.
The regime only cares about it’s survival. Targeting it’s leadership needs to continue.
90+% of the CIA put in jail would probably help too.
I thought I’d never live to see a POTUS that would finally do what needed to be done. Thank you President Trump!
“I’ll gladly pay 50 cents more per gallon Tuesday since Iran has been dealt with today”
Beginning with the turncoat on the far left, and I also mean the “left”, not a single one of these people understood the concept of “winning”. Their interest was their own survival in a financial system that lined their own pockets, but preserved the deep state as their tool shed.
Donald Trump spoke decades before he he became President Trump about the evil which is Iran and what he would do. Then he waited…and waited and waited for the presidents which followed to defeat it.
And every administration pontificated, tut-tutted, and watched as the mullahs funded terrorism all over the world.
All political poseurs and morally incontinent.
He has his chance now and is taking it. For the good of humanity inside brutal, barbaric Iran, and by extension the rest of the world.
Eternal shame on those who had the power to do so but did not.
They weren’t just in on the Grift. They were the authors.
They sent a planeload of cash over there. Then, the plane flew back to DC … no doubt, “still loaded.” Cash cannot be traced.
Maybe if we placed a little anthrax on the cash we could’ve solved some real problems…🤔
Cheney made billions off the clean-up of the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Andrew because Halliburton got paid but there was no clean-up! 🤔
He also had to get rid of the woke generals and admirals and put warfighters in their place. A lot had to be done to enable him to do this. I’m amazed they did it in only a year.
I have often remarked on this, dear sir. “Astounded” was the word I used.
Which tells me two things…
First, the changes weren’t spontaneous on the first day, much in preparation before the inauguration. The first essential mission without which we wouldn’t be witnessing any of this.
And second, the “Apprentice host” chose exactly the right man to execute that mission and much more besides, Secretary Hegseth, “Fox host”.
Rumsfeld wouldn’t believe it. Nor did anyone else when the Commander in Chief tapped him on the shoulder for what I think is turning out to be his most consequential appointment, right along side Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Astounded I was and remain.
He has done fantastic things with the military. Getting rid of the DEI rot and lowered standards for women has tremendously boosted morale, which can be seen by the recruiting numbers. Under Biden, commenters were convinced that low recruitment was the new normal. No, it was a reaction to the idiocy in the military at the time.
Biden and his puppeteers despised the military and held them in great contempt. Not only that they weren’t shy about showing it. Who would subject him or herself to that sort of abuse?
You must also remember that Hussein Obama had Iranians working for him ( Trita Parsi and some others) and that his closest adviser Jarrett was advising him. AND there was an Iranian spy in the Pentagon–Ariane Tabatabai
Can’t forget, Charlotte. Nor should we.
Nor should we forget Huma Abedin. Who knows the damage she did?
Donald Rumsfeld was a boss. I’ll never forget him on television during the first Iraq War saying “They want to die and collect 72 virgins and we’re going to accommodate them.” What balls.
Well they were all committed globalists and didn’t want to attack themselves/Iran!!!!/s
“Ike Was Right!”
“Their interest was their own survival in a financial system that lined their own pockets, but preserved the deep state as their tool shed.”
Doesn’t that describe the overwhelming majority of politicians and political figures, always?
Except that after the psychopathic 3-letter agency in Langley became all-powerful as a result of the “terrorist attack” (covert controlled demolition) known as 9/11, a small yet influential slice of these political figures apparently became covert puppets of that agency, “nudging” the rest by exploiting their venal self-interest.
“Winning”? Enthusiasm for winning is an idol, also exploited by the real powers. Orwell’s 1984 concludes with the observation that the only thing that matters is power, to those powers – everything else is window dressing.
Exactly so.
More prescient Orwell (if he had only know how much)…
“The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power. Not wealth or luxury or long life or happiness: only power, pure power. What pure power means you will understand presently. We are different from oligarchies of the past in that we know what we are doing. All the others, even those who resembled ourselves, were cowards and hypocrites. The German Nazis and the Russian Communists came very close to us in their methods, but they never had the courage to recognize their own motives.
They pretended, perhaps they even believed, that they had seized power unwillingly and for a limited time, and that just around the corner there lay a paradise where human beings would be free and equal. We are not like that. We know that no one seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it. Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes a revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.
The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now do you begin to understand me?”
Frightening to read and imagine.
Even more so to understand he has just described the Democrats and the Republicans and their beliefs in fact.
They had me fooled then; now, no way, thanks, to President Trump.
I have a photograph of my then college aged daughter posing with George W Bush. One of my favourites of her which I had on a small table.
Where is it now?
In a drawer somewhere…I forget which.
Cut bush out, keep the rest, frame and display.
Let Claude put PDJT in bushes place
Hey now!! 😁👍🏻
I voted for that SOB 4 different times(2 for Governor, 2 for President); and, all it took was Trump and MAGA, so never again.
I will admit I was fooled by “Dubya”. SO! happy with PJDT.
#metoo!
Me too–Until I saw Dubya holding hands with Saudi Prince Bandar who was involved in the 9/11 attacks
If you look at that picture then walk over to the State Department, counting along the way the number of attorneys working for both camps, you might begin to sense what our problem has been for many years.
Not sure? Recall how that ‘great leader’ Obama fought so hard for those terrorists in Gitmo to have “legal representation” along with being tried in our court system as opposed to a Military Court.
Take a few moments and watch the presentation of Stormin’ Norman on Desert Storm to get a good feeling about military leadership and a winning commitment on the battlefield before Powell and Bush senior stopped that Kuwait shooting gallery where the politicians then took over.
You wonder why and how we got to where we are today?
Ah yes…the “legalities” of war adjudicated by those sitting comfortably at their desks far, far away.
Which have cost the lives of thousands.
I don’t wonder actually, RJ…
It is the reason I have nothing but contempt for the profession, irrational as that sounds.
Hindsight and exposure by President Trump has given us a lot of wisdom. All those people I supported now makes me feel like a fool.
As General of The Army Douglas Macarthur said, “In war there is no substitute for victory.”
“I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.” (June 13, 1951 address to the Texas state legislature)
It’s always the, ” armchair warriors” who are safe that clamor for war.
Paging Ms Lindsey who never saw American blood which could be shed and didn’t salivate over the prospect of it.
Our nation WAS great then.
The momentum would continue until the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which started the “social engineering” destroying the meritocracy.
I am still stuck in the $1 transaction Carter and Kissinger cooked up.
We don’t need no steeenkin canal, right? Oh, wait . . . .
Those trilateralists were never MAGA, that’s for sure.
Norman Schwarzkopf and Colin Powell couldn’t have been more polar opposite.
That’s why Stormin Norman led troops and Powell was a worthless DC politico.
That picture speaks so loudly concerning the power dynamics. Powell and Rumsfeld on the outside. Cheney almost disappeared. But Condoleezza Rice sticking to George, front and center.
Before long, Rumsfeld would be sidelined, Cheney would be bunkered and Powell would be out with Rice taking his job and pulling all of W’s strings.
The only thing I agreed about with Rumsfeld was his “Known Knowns, Known Unknowns, and Unknown Unknowns” statement.
All above paid up members of the DS/MIC.
Contemptible…all of them.
Rumsfeld was singularly responsible for the American deaths after the defeat of Iraq. The leadership of the Iraqi Military offered to use the army to police Iraq and asked for the US to continue to pay the soldiers. Rumsfeld refused and instead ordered the Iraqi Army to disband and have the US Army do the job. Hundreds of thousands of unemployed Iraqi soldiers became the insurgents instead of the paid police. A very stupid decision by Rumsfeld.
Armchair “General”.
I don’t know if you’ve ever seen the movie ” Taking Chance “, Patriot…
Men like Rumsfeld who fought a war on paper, ordering men who knew how to fight but were prevented from doing what they knew best, costing more lives and grief.
All so we “wouldn’t have to fight the “peaceful religion” over here.
Fail, fail, fail.
Defense Department had schemes to install some leader. Rice played them and then discarded all their plans, putting State in charge. Sometimes there are stupidities you create yourself and stupidities you are ordered to follow.
It is astonishing that one man was able to destroy the reputation and legacies of this shower of frauds.
Cheers!
🏴🏴🏴
He had the will, Dekester, while he watched administration after administration either pay only lip service to their strong disapproval or…in the case of the repugnant frauds Obama and Biden/Obama…actually pay billions upon billions to support a country committed to obliterating America and other Christian nations.
And I am convinced President Trump has the blessings of Almighty God to do what others would not.
Colin Powel,…I see that picture and its funny as these last few days, I had another man on my mind…
Stormin’ Norman Schwarzkopf…I did a quick wiki look (yeah I know not always accurate)…but apparently he lived in Iran as a 12 year old…in the late 1940’s.
Its been so long that I do not remember if there was any controversy attached to him. Both Powell and Schwarzkopf have passed away.
One of the two was a General and the other was a fence riding politician.
Oh yes???
Sort of like the ineffable stolen va!our guy Kerry whose daughter married an Iranian.
Then he went behind President Trump’s back…no…that’s not right…
In his face and that of America and had carte blanche meetings inside Iran telling its Islamic hierarchy God only knows what.
The Logan Act has been thrown around so many times that it is almost cliché. But if anyone would be accused, prosecuted, and judged guilty of it it would surely be the wicked traitor John “Heinz” Kerry who is completely without ethics, scruples, and honour. And probably in the employ of the heinous regime.
I’ll leave it to others to decide which “regime” I am speaking of.
Kerry (yes!), BO 0bola, Clinton, McCain, Samantha Power, Susan Rice, Joe Bidet, Omar, Rashida Whatsherface… the list goes on and on.
14 months wasted with the Bondi Bimbo at DOJ . . . one of VERY few things I don’t understand about President Trump’s 99% brilliant decisions.
Second from the left understands exactly that God exists. His money, power, wealth, nasty little daughter cannot help him now. Even if death is overcame here on this place called Terraferma or earth one cannot run and hide from the creator of all things. Jesus Christ king of Kings Gave his life for all who simply believe in who he is. I pray that all will get on board and understand the importance of this. God bless you all.
At time ^^^^ Iran was attacking Iraq? Shia against Sunni and the Kurds were being attacked by both? So many tribes, so much hatred among them.
These are the ones responsible for 9-11. Imagine a 777 today hijacked and able to fly for hours with no escort of an army fighter. Preposterous on 9-11 it happened.
The Camel jockeys who couldn’t even fly a Cessna 180 took over passenger aircraft and flew them in patterns most 20 year pilots cant recreate in a simulator let alone in a passenger jet.
There is a reason the US will not allow any family to sue the Arabs as in the depositions and all evidence would surface who really wanted this $$ generator ignighted.
I could write an entire thesis on events coincidentally occurring this day but just like the Chemtrails of today nobody really cares.
The Chemtrtails today will lead to some terrible event similar to this one I just havnt been able to put the puzzle together yet. Some day possibly.
2013 we were to move out of Alaska being without the sun for much of the winter I wanted a state similar with sunshine. When I learned Colorado had on average 360 days of sunshine I chose it and my Bride well she didn’t mind either choice so we made the. Huge task of selling giving away 45 years of accumulation away. No small task as I owned a business as well any rate we mad it. And Enjoyed the sunshine. Fast FWD. to March 2026.
Currently Colorado is expieriencing one of the driest overcast warmest years in the History of record keeping. We see less than 1 sunny day a week. The sky is being filled with a thick white substance coming from the rear of high flying fast jets all a person has to do is look up and one will see it.
Currently we see less than one day a week without them spraying.
Be alert folks as Colorado provides much Wheat, Barley,Corn, Alfapha, Beef. This nano particulate is in all of it.
My father spent his 4 year army tour mostly in Kodiak and Fairbanks. Asbury Park,NJ born he said it was the best 4 years of his life . He went back with my mother a couple of times, only on cruises. Life got in the way of him moving back. Hope the sun starts shing more for you in co.
Pray and help others
Same in Australia- for the last 3 months when one would expect the sun its cloudy for 2-3-4 days a week
I remember Mark Steyn divulging in his first book “America Alone” which I read soon after its publication on 2006, that it was the Muslim convert John Brennan in his position as Chief of Station in Saudi Arabia (It has been a while since I reread that marvelous book, so I could be wrong about where in the ME he was stationed) who signed off on visas for five of the terrorist murderers who took down the Twin Towers. CIA John Brennan that is…
It is only now that this information has seen the public light of day.
(There are no coincidences, Alex, which I’m sure you know.)
Apologies to you, Arcticman, for changing you into Alex.
I have no excuse except that it’s Monday…
Forgive me please.

This warrior is the cream of the crop. Resolute and steadfast, as are the entire military under the leadership of the fantastic trio of Hegseth, Kaine and Cooper. First and foremost their leader and ours, President Trump, a leader of leaders giving them room do complete a huge task.
Thank you, Sundance.
Nothing breaks up a cold, dark night filled with fear than the light of truth. Thanks to all those who take the time from their busy schedule to give Americans light.
Maybe it’s time to seize Kharg Island, take control of 90% of Iran’s oil exports and starve the regime of funds.
Iran supplies something like 4% of the worlds oil. Almost all of it goes to china. Trump could bomb the pipeline which delivers oil from the mainland to kharg. This wouldnt require any boots or occupation but it would end all revenue to the regime
Perhaps he’s holding Kharg as his Trump card when he meets with Xi at the end of the month?
Its coming…
The Iranians are celebrating.
Awesome video. And interesting stuff about Tucker…
Time to post another train video on this thread? /smh
I think it is time and I hope Aggiegirl does post one ON THIS THREAD. Like she said, it’s American heritage!
Don’t like it? Leave, both this wonderful site and the country.
Okay. I get it. Now, enough with the celebrating and get on with ending the regime. We aren’t going to do it all for you.
Proof once again that if you don’t control the airspace your military forces will be cut up piecemeal.
Huge effort ongoing to ensure Iran will not have attack capabilities outside its borders again if ever.
We have also learned that control of the airspace renders the enemies drones useless.
Pres. Trump has a plan. He does nothing without a well thought out plan. God has a plan also and foremost. Who is our God? The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob through Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. It’s through Him I ask for His grace and mercy upon us. May we be found on His side and trust fully in Him.
Amen Amen!
Oh no…/sarc
No wait, that can’t be right. The CCP shills have been barking like crazed chihuahuas that the US is falling apart and Donald Trump has died at least six times just in the last couple of days. Surely the unproductive commie glue-sniffers would never lie about these things, right?
I thought it was the jews and Quatar that controlled DJT? I can’t keep up with all these psyops. All of these different shills give me a headache!
The Admiral needs to work on his presentation…too much use of his hands.
I understand our need to present updates in a timely manner; however, we must not go down that road of “gee this looks like propaganda” due to a desire not to look bad on the world stage nor weak in America.
I also note the Admiral wears camouflage that is colored for land and not for sea duty…what’s up with that?
CENTCOM commanders are usually being briefed. His demeanor as a briefer may be rusty or just not his strong suit. He is currently on shore duty as CENTCOM Cmdr. and not on sea duty. No coffee this morning?
Sounds like solidarity with the troops to me.
And who wants a lifeless sock puppet reading a teleprompter?
His hand movements?
Seriously?
That’s what you got out of it?
Pelosi style… 🙂
Whole new level of The Never Satisfied.™️ sheesh…
I thought Admiral Cooper’s presentation was excellent. He began by honoring the fallen, and finished up by giving well deserved kudos to the “sustainers and logisticians” who bring everything from jet fuel to bandaids to those at the tip of the spear. Great editing with the attack footage too.
Camouflage not required for sea duty? These new “blueberries” are not as good at hiding a person as the old blue coveralls anyway. Why oh why does the Navy insist on changing the uniforms every twenty years?
I don’t care about his presentation style as long as he keeps destroying stuff.
No need for that uniform anyway, except for SeaBees and corpsmen assigned to FMF. Should be in khaki, which I point out was good enough for Nimitz.
The whole “cammie” thing started with Desert Storm as I think the nav had uniform envy.
Thanks Sundance! Well worth the watch. Godspeed
This operation has to spread to wrecking and damaging the Iranian Governments means to pay for the rebuild.
Also note …. The IRG Central Command expanded their zone of operations to the Red Sea. While US Forces, in the Red Sea, were always a target for attack … I suspect Egypt was the real objective of this message, as in they are on the target list. It is also an attempt to “activate” the Houthis, who were said to be considering their options …. given what happened to Iran, they have no material support besides on-hand assets and that the Houthis can be attacked on land they have allot more to “consider”.
Houthis are mostly primitives with aging guns. Easy to take them all out. They have some missile and rockets from Iran but I’m sure its not many.
France and uk give trump emphatic NO in respose to request for help in strait
Why are we a member of NATO?
President Trump statement on NATO
“Whether we get support or not, but I can say this, I said it to them, WE WILL REMEMBER.”
“If there’s no response or if it’s a negative response,” Trump said, “I think it will be very bad for the future of NATO.”
During an interview with the Financial Times, Trump warned that NATO’s future could be in jeopardy if European allies refuse to support the U.S.-led mission aimed at reopening the critical oil shipping route, which Iran has effectively threatened to close amid the escalating Middle East conflict.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/03/trump-issues-brutal-warning-freeloading-nato-allies-help/
We are witnessing the beginning of the end for NATO. President Trump is allowing them to orchestrate their own destruction.
Shocked, I say. Totally shocked.
And honestly, what’s the value of the support?
He has spent months attacking America’s allies nonstop. Now, when he needs them, they are refusing to capitulate to his demands. Should not surprise anyone!
He’s spent years explaining math ($$$$) to these people and the reality of the world. They don’t like it. So they go play poopy-pants and whine.
They spent decades attacking America non-stop. A president fights back and you blame him because they do what they were always going to do?
FTP is a commie. He hates America.
He doesn’t “need” them. He is asking them to protect their supply line… and if they won’t well… no more NATO, which will be a GOOD THING!
Bunch of leeches.
Their refusal shows that VSG President Trump was right about the wimpy Starmtroopers and Macaronis all along.
The very best summary I’ve seen of both the mission and the results.
I think I’d surrender if I were Iran.
A huge number of explosions, but how much closer is the Iranian regime to any kind of collapse?
Footwear on the ground is nothing. People who standing on the ground are what makes the difference. The people who serve in our Dept. of War typically wear boots “in the field” but they are humans.. I humbly encourage all to avoid the trite ” boots on the ground” when referring to military operations. Thanks
Awesome! Death to the Iran regime,
Second time radio tornado warning went off in Louden/Fairfax VA and Montgomery MD, in last 20min.
Poolesville/Damascus MD this time. Clarksburg on deck.

Is that in Iran?
😉
I didnt have my glasses, thought I was in potus thread.
LOL!
Isn’t Scott Bessent gay?
Yes, but he isn’t pretending to be a fanatical religious scholar.
Could be true. Could also be psyop against Iran so he loses support in Iran (Iran throws gays off the roof of buildings).
No possible way a truthy publication like NYP would try a psyop. Besides, no one in Iran reads them
The Iranians have released their capitulation demands which include exiting our ME bases, dropping sanctions, and reparations.
I wonder if our administration should release that info so we can all have a good laugh
Kind of like the Japanese version of surrender.
They keep all territory they still hold. No American boots on their ground. They conduct all wartime trials. They all stay in power. Their military stays intact.
Yeah, but remembering Ukraine, the Rooskies don’t want US there, because missiles, bases, etc.
now Iran says we need to close our bases next door to them
Uh oh….just thought of another problem. It were the Japanese what sneak-attacked US!
Something that I’ve been wondering about about is the increase in the price of oil here at home, attributed to Epic Fury.
If we produce enough oil to meet our needs here at home and are a net exporter of oil, then why are our prices going up.
Are our oil companies exporting more oil because they can get more money for it?
If so, why not put an export tariff on our oil or restrict exports to keep supply here up and prices down?
I think out natural gas prices have been too high for me, Joe Schmoe, quite a long time, now
In a capitalist system, if demand or perceived demand goes up, the asking price goes up, and the corporations sell to the highest bidder for crude.
It is because all oil is priced via the global marketplace. WTI and Brent is the pricing commodity trade for oil.
Personally, I think we should just keep our own oil and price it ourselves, but then we wouldn’t be good global neighbors….
This is the explanation that AI gives:
“Oil is priced based on supply and demand dynamics in the global market, with key factors including geopolitical events, production levels from major oil-producing countries, and market speculation. Different types of crude oil, such as Brent Crude and West Texas Intermediate (WTI), serve as benchmarks for pricing, and their values can fluctuate significantly due to various economic and political influences.”
From what you tell us about markets and such…..this sneak attack against the Iranians is politically, quite risky.
Are you sure that Trump wasn’t tricked into it by his true enemies? He was the anti-war candidate, you know
In 1982 President Trump said that Iran should be taken down and said given the chance he would do what 6 presidents before him should have done
Because oil is a global commodity. Supply and demand is the way of Capitalism.
The sad part is that it doesn’t matter how well our military performs because the neo confederates and their dunces like Paul, Massie, Murkowski, etc can’t support them because they weren’t personally asked for their blessing of the operation.
I’m so old that I remember when our differences ended at water’s edge.
An outrage, in Constitutionally charged deliberative bodies. Off with their heads
Trump Issues Brutal Warning to Freeloading NATO Allies — Help Secure the Vital Strait of Hormuz or Face a “Very Bad” Future

That strait is of far greater importance to them than to us. Their military convoy vessels should have arrived days ago. (Do they have any?)
From what I have been reading, the once great British navy has been decimated and they don’t have much of one anymore. Mostly, the NATO peeps have been relying on the US for their defense.
It is very nice that he called out the people who man the forklifts and trucks. The ones who ensure that every damned bolt is torqued to the proper spec . . .
In the Q&A portion of today’s conference about Trump-Kennedy Center Trump took questions about Iran and Straight of Hormuz. He said some countries are going to help with Straight of Hormuz protection, and some don’t want to. He plans to expose the ones who we have been protecting, but won’t help now even though they depend on Hormuz and we don’t.
He said there are some we don’t even really want help from, but he asked them just to see their response. He’ll expose who is not there to help protect their own oil ships.

BREAKING: Trump Takes Question After Question From Reporters On War With Iran, Strait Of Hormuz
(21 mins)
I put the link to the full speech in the presidential thread (59 mins).
How do we give Iran a Republic?
Are Guns the answer? There must be plenty of guys who fought in Iran’s Army and know exactly how to aim and shoot.
Parachute rifles and ammo under food stuffs?
I don’t think we can leave nut-job religious guys in charge. If we do, 10 years from now we will be facing the same oh, same oh, oh!
Not want I want for my grandkids.
Iran is a Republic, and the rallies in support of their gov’t are not ‘AI’
Child reply TEST. Ignore
Child Reply TEST 2. Ignore
Anyone try to picture how different how WW 11 would of been if President DJT could of been President during that time period?
Pray and help others
Trust the Plan……
Watching “enemy at the door” . 1978 series about the German army occupying Guernsey( channel islands) in June of 1940. So far sad watching. Most world world war 11 films watching the cruelty of the Nazi regime are.

The USS Abraham Lincoln was commissioned in 1989. The Nuclear Reactors (said then) to have a life of 25 years. Have they been replaced?
Couldn’t afford it under the Kenyan. He spent the money to buy high heels for the AF and spent the rest giving it to Iran to build nukes. /s
I hate to be the pessimist on certain issues but why did he say 50,000? We know south command is out in or southern hemisphere…did anyone else question that?
KC-135 was shot down, according to Col Wilkerson. Listen @ 37:01 of this video.
We are being lied to.
Always remember the first casualty in war is the truth.
Col. Larry Wilkerson (rumble.com)
An EMP would knock Iran back into the Stone Age and they would not have much left to fight with.
Time to put the bully in the corner and knock some sense into him.
Should have been done when Carter was in office.
Tired of it !
Tommy……..join Army !!!
Was in the Marines when Carter fumbled Iran.
If I join it would definitely be the Marines again. But I don’t think they would take an old man .

Well, I understand that the majority of folks here are going to be supporting the stance of the USA with regard to Iran.
I’d like to make a couple of points:
