President Trump released the following message via Truth Social:
“We are getting very close to meeting our objectives as we consider winding down our great Military efforts in the Middle East with respect to the Terrorist Regime of Iran: (1) Completely degrading Iranian Missile Capability, Launchers, and everything else pertaining to them. (2) Destroying Iran’s Defense Industrial Base. (3) Eliminating their Navy and Air Force, including Anti Aircraft Weaponry. (4) Never allowing Iran to get even close to Nuclear Capability, and always being in a position where the U.S.A. can quickly and powerfully react to such a situation, should it take place. (5) Protecting, at the highest level, our Middle Eastern Allies, including Israel, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, and others. The Hormuz Strait will have to be guarded and policed, as necessary, by other Nations who use it — The United States does not! If asked, we will help these Countries in their Hormuz efforts, but it shouldn’t be necessary once Iran’s threat is eradicated. Importantly, it will be an easy Military Operation for them. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
Bibi & Co should order their Schumer & Co puppets to help PDJT & Trump Republicans do more than pass the Save Act, help PDJT’s MAGA agenda fully since he took care of Iran for them.
Schumer says he would welcome Netanyahu to address Congress, one week after saying the Israeli leader has ‘lost his way’https://www.jta.org/2024/03/21/politics/chuck-schumer-says-he-would-welcome-netanyahu-speech-to-joint-session-of-congress
How about if Bibi also ordered the Uniparty traitors to back Israel & the Jewish peoples greatest American Presidential friend Donald J Trump & his MAGA agenda?
Muh Bibi! Muh Lindsey!
And the liberal hoaxers told us some politicians are puppets of Russia.
MAGA is done with this puppet nonsense. DeSantis lost. Kamala lost. Parroting idiots like Tucker make you the puppet. You sound like Nancy Pelosi:
“All roads lead to Putin!”
Which Senators would you expect foriegn leaders to take pictures with? For myself it would be the leadership.
He is just confusing the enemy. Israel’s Minister of Defense just said that the US and Israel are going to intensify the Operation next week. Unless they intensify before ending. But we are yet to know what is the next step.
Watch Kharg Island…
Over and out…
There is a Marines Force on route. It will be a week plus till they arrive. He is just keeping options on the table. But yes, the Island is the key as it is the hub for some 90% of Iran’s oil export which is how they pay their soldiers and Govenment employees salaries.
The Marines know what to do….
They do islands well…
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I have a feeling that the Israeli Seals will be involved. But Trump will make the final decision. IDF and US Military and Marines have been practicing together for decades. So did the pilots.
May The LORD GOD ALMIGHTY BLESS & PROTECT THEM!
AMEN, AMEN, & AMEN
AMEN to that junebug
This is going to be a deadly serious operation that only the best of the best operators can pull off.
Joint operation will be comprehensive and precise. And you are right… Gamed for many years.
May the strong right arm of the Lord guide our warriors.🙏🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I bet they break out the “Shit Your Pants Ray”, or SYPR for this one.
US troops escorting Iranian ExPats home?
I’m telling you the golf course is already mapped out. “Trump Karg Golf Links and Spa”
Taking that island is one thing, holding it is another.
True. But holding for a month may be enough to collapse the regime. No money for their people will make many quit. For now the aim is reducing their capabilities to a level that they can’t defend an operation if the decision is to do it.
Maybe we take Karg & say to the Iranians, ‘Give us your enriched uranium & you can have your oil infrastructure back.’
Not a bad idea. It’s kind of tricky because the closer you get to collapsing them the less you want to give them a way out.
No. Take Kharg, take it all. Don’t leave anything for this regime so the Iranian people can decide their future without being slaughtered in the streets. These maniacs only understand one thing. They cannot be allowed any avenue to regain control.
Take Kharg Island and give it to the Shaw’s son and the resistance.
They Iranians don’t need the Shahs son. The family were corrupt and greedy grifters. They also had their political rivals arrested and executed just like Saddam Hussein did.
Iran needs a fresh start if anything.
“…………give it to the Shaw’s son and the resistance.”
Step aside and let the resistance take control of their own destiny.
We can provide assistance if necessary, but only if they request it. As for the Shaw’s son, that’s up to the Iranian people as to whether or not they want anything at all to do with a regime that’s been out of power for half a century.
This might be the perfect opportunity for the people of Iran to let go of dynasties ruled by kings and Shaws, and step into the 21st century with a more inclusive form of government that’s free from the tentacles of the west.
Resolute, I’m amused daily coming here now; so many new screen names daily (some not so new but fit my comment too) coming here espousing on things they know nothing about, have no clue about, pretend to know things, or just peddle Iranian BS they saw on X.
It’s comical.
As you state and Trump himself has said- we have our goals, one of which is not regime building- that’s on the Iranian people.
The Shaw’s son is just as bad as the Shaw whom the Iranians revolted and exiled in 1979…
Agreed… but once we’re in, the overall game changes, and the dominoes are on their way down.
By the time this Operation is executed, our joint air campaign will have inflicted maximum damage countrywide and many more bad guys will have been attrited….
If we control Kharg; the global oil, gas, and overall energy picture swings to our advantage…. Watch what our VSGPDT does with that bargaining chip on the world stage….
Ji, are you paying attention?
Bingo.
As heard in a movie I saw once.
Who’s gonna take it back??
The US large Armada will soon not be needed.
Special Forces plus a few thousand Marines can mop and clean the leftover IRGCs. Apache ‘copters and A-10 Warthogs is all the air power they need.
It is time for the Iranian citizens to plan their take back of their government.
Aside from not allowing the world’s enemy to have a nuke…
what started this….the Iranian protesters and the massive numbers who were killed or beaten into submission
….am assuming every day people like most of us, that want to “be left alone” and live their lives…have a job, buy affordable food, be with family and friends… and be safe and free from murderous oppression.
The MSM is forgetting about how this all started…with a cry for help, amidst the brutality of the Iranian Guards…
MSM does NOT forget. They intentionally post anti-USA propaganda.
Aggiegirl, are you a Texas Aggie?
And, you have commenters commenting on things and about situations they have no knowledge of, that includes here.
So much speculation all without knowing a darn thing. And we don’t know a darn thing for a reason.
That’s how military a tion should be.
And they just hung three teenagers who were protesting…. Their wickedness, their evil is beyond comprehension.
Hell just opened and entire “Iranian wing.” It’s next to the “Democrat wing”.
A glaring example of not just the MSM but lots of people pretending not to know certain things.
Absolutely. We cannot allow the fog of war to obscure the need of the Iranian people to have a clear path for self determination.
The msm is too busy hating the Jews and BiBi to tell us the truth of the matter…
True.
Supply rifles and ammo to anti government Iranians and we can stand back and let let Iranians finish the job.
True.
Every tom, dick and harry hell hole around the world gets flooded with AK-47s. Why none to the Iranian people?
Probably already happening….. Kurds, Mossad, and dare I say, our CIA…..
Hopefully that is happening.
That would be victory. Anything less and this ‘war’ will not end.
John, “The Revelator”, says this war will not end until the Battle of Armageddon takes place…

All good orchestras have a crescendo before it starts to wind down and end beautifully.
The people of Iran needs to step up.
The cure for evil is eradication, not compromise. It is only just that the USA and Israel are reimbursed from Iranian oil for the monies spent for Iranian freedoms. This should include renumeration for US and Israeli families that suffer the ultimate sacrifice. The totally corrupt regime is hypocritical and beyond any hope of rehabilitation. They use religion to spread hate and horror. God is Love. We are seeing some tough love on Iran. I could hardly believe it when Tucker agreed that China and Russia should take over as world superpowers. We have the worst government in the world except for all the others. I trust the USA and Israel will be vindicated on the world stage and a new day dawns in the Middle East, at least for a long time. God is in control and is working all things according to His will.
How does that fit in with this? https://xcancel.com/Marwa__Osman/status/2035294770277335078#m
Is it just bluffing?
Copied:
A message to Washington?
In a tightly structured 12-minute address, Ayatollah Imam Sayyed Mojtaba Khamenei moved from familiar rhetoric into something far more consequential. The opening half followed the expected script; revisiting decades of U.S. warmongering rhetoric: sanctions, assassinations, regional conflicts.
But midway through, the tone shifted from retrospective to strategic.
Sayyed Khamenei outlined three concrete demands, each with a defined timeline: a rapid U.S. military withdrawal from the Middle East, a full rollback of sanctions within 60 days, and long-term financial compensation for economic damages.
Then came the ultimatum. Fail to comply, and Iran escalates, economically, militarily, and potentially nuclearly. Not hypothetically, but operationally: closing the Strait of Hormuz, formalizing defense ties with Russia and China, and moving from ambiguity to declared nuclear deterrence.
The timing of external reactions was just as telling. Within hours, both Beijing and Moscow issued statements aligning, carefully but unmistakably, with Tehran’s framing. This definitely looked coordinated.
The broader context matters. Sayyed Mojtaba Khamenei represents a different leadership style from his martyred predecessor leader. Where martyr Sayyed Ali Khamenei operated through long-term balancing and controlled escalation, Sayyed Mojtaba appears positioned to deliver faster, more decisive outcomes.
Iran’s internal reports are clear, the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps is in no way, shape or form interested in incrementalism. They are pushing for structural change: removing U.S. influence from the region, restoring Iran’s military standing, and forcing a re-negotiation of global power dynamics.
And for the first time in decades, Iran practically has the leverage to do this.
Rising oil prices, regional instability, growing alignment with China and Russia, and vulnerabilities in global trade routes have shifted the strategic landscape.
So this was not just a speech. It was a test. A test of whether the United States is willing, or even able, to operate under a new set of constraints.
What happens next will likely define not just the trajectory of this conflict, but the broader balance of power in the Middle East for decades to come.
Propaganda much? Lord Haw Haw?
The Ayatollahs want to usher in the 12th imam and they will destroy the middle east, if possible, to do so. I have only read one other person who mentioned that and it has been on the table for years.
Iran the giant wet fart of history…..
Are you a representative of the IRGC? LOL. This man that you quote is either badly wounded, likely on respirator or dead – Mojtaba Khamenei.
Sundance retweeted it, so I was curious. I think he’s probably dead.
I see. Then my apology for the tone of my communication.
I am Israeli. We are dealing with people who are deluded. They report to themselves of “hundreds of Israelis and Americans dead, Tel Aviv is half destroyed”, all kind of fairy tales.
The question is whether or not the regime will fall. Not s bunch of deluded demands.
With that said, I do think that the US need to close some of it’s bases in the US. They are too exposed and they do get damaged. Considering the Gulf States are doing nothing to help the Operation the US would do better to make a base in Israel that is strategically located and can be defended. Just saying.
Close bases in the US? Or did you mean in the Middle East?
Sorry. The Middle East.
David know many Christians pray for you and yours daily.
We Believe:
You are Gods chosen people although many may be in unbelief he will use his LOVE and Grace to prove he is God.
These last days there are going to be many trials and tribulations stay strong as he will not allow you to fall.
Many will rise their ugly heads against you in the end we win God Bless and stay safe.
From all Loving Christians thruought the world. Come lord Jesus.
Amen.

Thank you. ❤️
No apologies needed, IMO….you are there living it and hearing the news, seeing the news or even going to your bomb shelter, and also hearing the propaganda…I had started my political science/HLS studies during the mid 2000’s and remember all the bus and car bombs on the streets in Israel.
I like your idea of a base in Israel…! However our liberal Congress critters would be wailing although PDJT did get the Embassy moved to Jerusalem…
Be safe!
❤️
A U.S. base in Israel is a poor idea for all concerned.
There’s been no greater friend than PTrump since the Persian Emperor 2500 years ago. He’s a gift from G-d, a miracle at an existential moment. Breathing space.
The Israeli maxim still holds: Be prepared to defend yourself by yourself.
American dollars constitute 10% of Israel’s military budget. It’s the partnership that’s enduring; financial aid is unnecessary and undesirable. A potent propaganda weapon from enemies hither and yon. Dogs and wagging tails, who’s at which end of the leash … nauseating.
Israel’s finally diversifying its supply chains and will be [hopefully] less subject to the vicissitudes of American politics. [Remember the hellfires cut off by 0bama mid-war, 2014. 0Biden’s slow-roll of replacements that cost lives in 2024.]
Such a base would be even more compromising than the “Board of Peace” headquarters. It does not belong on Israeli territory. Not with nations that still refer to the sovereign Nation State of the Jewish People as the “zionist entity”. Weakness, desperation drove that agreement; the price has been high and will continue to rise.
American experts are tasked with analysis of security at all our bases. It’s a formidable responsibility only entrusted to the best.
Crazy for Sundance to retweet such insane propaganda
Where is the link to the tweet?
The Potato gave the Iranians the idea of the auto pen, ‘auto Khamenei’.
A Kuwaiti source reported that Russia evacuated Khamenei Jr. He’s recovering from surgery there, is being treated by Putin’s best.
That is all going to happen right after I kick the Jolly Green Giant’s butt.
“… formalizing defense ties with Russia and China”
That’s comical. He’s a bad, a really bad liar.
IMO, Iran had some defense ties to China (inferior equipment) and Russia who has no cultural common ground with any 12th Iman. Both countries already refused to send in air support on the first day? I do not see how this man is able to assert he is in the position to demand anything.
Shi’a vs Sunni.
Will Sunni’s take out a muslim nation?
That’s where we are today.
Europe, now growing into an Islamist State, is on the sidelines waiting to see which family wins.
That family will rule Europe and the last standing monarchies will be vassals to that I.S.
Pray for wisdom.
The Nazis from NATO, assisted the Globalists and their Clinton Administration in launching the Bosnian war to support CIA-created Islamists from Op Cyclone who were the same elements from the infamous 13 SS Nazi Handschar against our old friends and allies the Bosnian Serbs, Holocaust victims and long time friends of Israel & the Jewish people.
Iran was illegally allowed to ship weapons and trainers to assist the Nazi jihadists and with a handful of exceptions, like Ariel Sharon and a few others, were thrown under the bus to put it mildly by most of the Jewish communities as Ruder-Finn bragged they targeted to flip the real history of the then present and WWII upside down. Turn the Nazis into the good guys, and the ones fighting the Nazis the bad guys.
The start of the Baal-Globalists Islamic caliphate in Nazarene Europe was in Bosnia & Kosovo and has expanded via immigration and “Western’ governments who are hostile to Christians as the wars against the Orthodox Serbian peoples showed.
October 10, 1996 Iranian Arms Shipments to Bosnia
Rep. Henry Hyde released the final report of a Judiciary select subcommittee concerning U.S. payments to Iran for arms shipments to Bosnian Muslims. He and other subcommittee members answered questions from the press.

Ruder-Finn? Funny their Wikipedia page says nothing about that but today for once I must give credit to the AI.
“Ruder Finn, a major New York-based public relations firm, played a significant role in shaping Western public opinion and policy during the Bosnian War (1992–1995) by representing the governments of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia. The firm was instrumental in a lobbying campaign that successfully vilified Serbian forces, utilizing high-emotional content language to influence media narratives and encourage international intervention.

Key Aspects of Ruder Finn’s Role:
Targeted Propaganda Campaign: Ruder Finn was tasked with promoting the interests of the Bosnian and Croatian governments. They targeted specific audiences, including Jewish organizations, to generate support against Serbian forces.
Use of Emotional Language: The firm helped introduce emotive terms such as “ethnic cleansing” and “concentration camps,” which created strong parallels to Nazi Germany and Nazi-era atrocities in the media.
“Cash for a Corpse” Story: A 1993 New Statesman article claimed that Ruder Finn’s Rhoda Paget assisted in spreading a “Cash for a Corpse” story provided by a Croatian government minister, without verifying its accuracy.
Intervention Advocacy: The campaign was highly effective in encouraging a “moral” fervor for military intervention against Serbian forces.
Media and Political Impact: Ruder Finn was effective at targeting influential journalists and members of the U.S. government, aiding in the push for a “black-and-white” view of the conflict.

Controversies and Criticisms:
Lack of Verification: James Harff, a top executive at Ruder Finn, famously noted in a 1993 interview that the firm’s job was to “accelerate the circulation of information favorable to us,” rather than to verify the accuracy of that information.
Controversy of Alleged Crimes: Critics have accused the firm of spreading, at times, unverified or fabricated stories regarding atrocities committed during the war.

I put that up a few times here but I thank you for your assist friend. Longtime Treepers know the real story of the Pre-Clean Break wars against the Orthodox Christian Serbs in Yugoslavia. Our beloved Dutchman thanked me more than once for showing Treepers the truth about the Globalist-Baalists war against Orthodox Christians in general & Orthodox Christian Serbs in particular.
I just read today that Serbia continues to be among Israel’s best friends. For a long time, apparently.
Wahabi’s are kind of quiet…
As are the Ottomans.
Not really just nobody is sharing what they are saying here. Just like there were numerous articles about Iran wanting to be the guardians of the Gulf and the Strait and exact fees AND tolls. Some took them seriously enough to publish but of course it’s laughable so perhaps I would be better off just staying here and trusting the mind filters of my betters but sometimes I just gotta forage.
They are controlled Pawns of the Sykes-Picot ME Chessboard
“Will Sunnis take out a Muslin nation?”
1980-1988, the 8 year war between Iraq and Iran. Iraq – Sunni governing minority (Saddam Hussein), with Shia the majority of citizenry. Iran – Shia. They fought to a standstill. casualties assessed at half a million.
1979 into 1980: Iranian Islamist government advocated for overthrow of Iraqi government. The 2 countries’ leaders hated the other.
So there is precedent for warfare between Muslim countries. In point of fact, they have killed many thousands of their own over economic, religious, and power/control matters when in their view the stakes are high. I think the situation would have to be a nation’s existence and/or key leadership being ended for a full blown war to happen.
What nonsense, China and Russia are doing nothing for Iran because they’re afraid of the us military. And any statement from mojtaba is likely AI generated given nobody even knows if he’s alive and he’s yet to appear on video
Right.
Russia is not afraid of the US military, but…
Russia IS looking to potentially displace Europe as the key US ally of the region down the road, and they have a few things going for them…
1. Russia actually has something to offer…resources,
2. They are smarter than the European leaders,
3. They are more culturally aligned with us than Europe, at this point.
Oh, and Europe is doing its level best to commit cultural and economic suicide.
No…Russia is not going to align with Iran.
Can’t speak to China, but I don’t see that really happening either, if I had to make a guess.
“What nonsense,” China is doing nothing for Iran because they’re afraid of the us Military.
re: Russia: Russia is no more afraid of the US Military than they are afraid of the man in the moon…
Methinks when it is all said and done you will find that President Trump and President Putin made a deal and Russia agreed to stay out of the war other than a few expected political comments…
re: mojtaba: it is inconsequential as to whether or not he is dead or alive and will have no actual impact on the current war…
It is way too late for China or Russia to enter this war.
Both had better sense than to get involved at the beginning and now there is nothing to save.
I’m Baghdad Bob, and I approved this message!
“ Fail to comply, and Iran escalates, economically, militarily, and potentially nuclearly”
This is bad comedy.
So let me get this straight, your military and government structure are getting its arse kicked and your answer is we’re holding back because…?
The IRGC are flipping joke.
Cope some more!!!
The only thing more ridiculous are people who post it to spread it, while believing it.
Is kal alive or is it ai stuff?
Pure IRGC propaganda.
Just curious, is that how we define success now? Wait until you’ve expended your best politically expedient effort, and then list your results as the objective. 100% successful? What happend to unconditional surrender and regime change?
Just curious.
Can someone smarter than me explain it to me?
I don’t know if I am smarter than you, but I can explain.
The words are – “almost done, may reduce”. The actions are the opposite. Gradual intensifying of the fire, Marines on the way. Potentially taking their oil island. If you take their oil Island, it’s game over. No money to pay the regime, soldiers, and all the branches. The Israeli Defense Minister jest reported that the US and Israel are intensifying next week. CENTCOM Commander just gave a briefing and he too is talking about “gradual increase while the enemy decrease”.
Trump all along confused the Iranians with flipping tones. Check out my Update at the Open Thread. Shalom.

The price of oil revenue resumption from a Marine-occupied Kharg Isaland?
Say, half a ton of 60% enriched uranium.
The Mullahs have no leaders left that can “unconditionally surrender”.
Their last supposed leader is in a coma in Moscow hospital according to reports.
“Somebody got an autopen?”
President Trump never said regime change was a goal of this operation. Eliminating their Navy, eliminating their missile launch, stockpile and industrial capacity, eliminating their Air Force and eliminating their nuclear capacity. That was it. No regime change…he squarely placed that on the Iranian people.
The goal is to create the conditions for the Iranians to change the regime, in addition to what you mentioned.
No one can say Regime change is the goal as it’s up to Iranians. But also you can’t withdraw in a way that you leave the most radicals controlling Iran. They will just start all over again. So you will see more targeted assassinations. If we can’t have a regime change then at least we want some more moderate people In-Charge.
Don’t forget the Israeli hit squads who presently operate mostly in the air…they are not totally parallel with Trump’s objectives where President Trump just may give them a green light to do what they see fit after we stand down; meaning from the skies to the streets the bullets of Israel will find those leaders and other evil doers.
Works for me!
Comatose Ayatollah says he is about to take over the world and nuke anyone who gets in the way, Trump replies that we are almost done completely neutering Iran to the point we could stop and declare success. He also says stuff like we are not interested in regime change, but then adds that we don’t know who to negotiate with since the leaders of the regime are all dead, and by the way, we need unconditional surrender which means no nukes or plans to develop them, or develop missiles to deliver them, or even project power (terrorism) beyond their borders. So whatever regime agrees to this is just fine with us. And if the Iranian people want to take back their country, now would be a good time. And yes, we are quite close to achieving this. Any questions?
Reading you reminds me of the cardboard ayatollah images they were putting up / we could have a cardboard Ayatollah negotiating on Skype? Too bad I’m graphically challenged – sigh😊
Those are media lies. Trump said he would work with the Iranian people if they rose up.
“Now might be your only chance!”
Troll harder.
Hi Sundance,
Last night’s Greg Kelly show featured Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt, who kept saying that we have, “Exquisite Intelligence” that will be used for protection of our smaller ships, while the aircraft carriers had some of the same “defense technology that was used in Venezuela” that will be used for their protection. After Tony Shaffer also used the term, “Exquisite Intelligence,” Greg caught on and mentioned that there must be something to this, “exquisite” that they kept saying. Neither would say anything, and just laughed.
God Bless our Sailors, Airmen, and Marines, and keep them safe.
Lets hope the “exquisite intelligence” isn’t AI reprogrammed from taking an order at a drive thru.😂
You want fries with that? LOL
<…AI reprogrammed from taking an order at a drive thru>
It was obvious China did it when the voice said:
‘Do you want flies with that? ‘ 🙂
Or the dancing robot.
Can’t speak as to AI, but a certain President did an outstanding job rustling up fries for the drive-thru customers:)
I flash straight back to ‘gravitas’ whenever I start hearing propagandists repeating not just concepts, but the exact same words.
Are those walls still closing in?
I was waiting for one of those guys to say ‘if I tell you, I will have to kill you.’ 🙂
PDJT is still very attuned to the base. And no boots on the ground is the message. The base otherwise strongly approves of this action so far, by all polling metrics.
It is Bibi who now needs to do some course correction about whose sons will be dying there.
I have not seen anything where Bibi said whose boots had to be on the ground.
The Arab nations that have been attacked have reserved their right to respond.
Predicting what might happen in order to levy a complaint is not productive.
No “American” boots. He didn’t mention the IDF.
IDF is not the set of “local” only boots in the area nor would the IDF rule out working with other “boots”.
Also, ownership of Karg Island was a primary objective during the war between Iran and Iraq, yet another possibility.
Don’t kid yourselves… the IDF is booked for the next 12-to-783 months…
“Israel planning massive ground invasion of Lebanon, officials say”
https://www.axios.com/2026/03/14/israel-lebanon-ground-invasion-hezbollah
Israel is planning to significantly expand its ground operation in Lebanon, aiming to seize the entire area south of the Litani River and dismantle Hezbollah’s military infrastructure, Israeli and U.S. officials say.
If you’re waiting on Israel to be on the same strategic page as the U.S., then you’re setting yourself up for disappointment…
Proof:
https://theaviationist.com/2026/03/21/iran-fires-two-intermediate-range-ballistic-missiles-at-diego-garcia-base/
Iran DID have a long-range missile threat.
Or someone wants everyone to believe they have that capacity.
Just don’t leave any crumbs to be cleaned up.
President Trump is the master of making you watch one hand while he hits you with the other. He won’t end it until the job is done, he said as much in that msn interview last night
Iran built entire missile cities underground for years and more likely for decades.
This is why the war isn’t ending anytime soon.
Oil is at $107 and climbing.
This is a messy situation.
The locations are likely known and will be dealt with. Trumps statement is likely a feint.
When I first heard about them, it was mixed with claims that 1/3 of the military was trapped or even crushed in them when they were dealt with.
Somebody pointed out that the 1/3 claim was ridiculous. Does that mean that their being dealt with was also propaganda?
Thanks for the regularly scheduled morning Doom Update. Dependability is a virtue.
It’s just one.
Oil was 147.00 in 2014.

You missed the point. Completely.
That’s right, sir, and when it went back down we were far worse off than we will be when it goes down this time, which it soon will.

During the Carter “misery index” years you didn’t know whether there would even be gas to fill up your tank, Carter told you to turn down your furnace and put on more sweaters, no Christmas lights because we can’t waste electricity and of course the hostages that made us a laughing stock.
Before that we had the Cuban missile crisis and the Korean War and after that we had Viet Nam with the body count on the evening news every night. So, when you put everything in perspective, this isn’t that bad and at least we have a leader who wants to put America first and is doing everything he can to protect this country and its citizens. Will President Trump be successful, I don’t know, but this operation in Iran is something that he has been thinking about and planning for years; it is not a knee jerk reaction.
Buried underground means they cannot be moved and can be located, bombed.
Israelis can easily deal with that.
Yes that is the oil price globally. The U.S. uses the Texas price which is 97
And the US military is taking out those underground facilities every day….. as well as the factories that make the missiles/drones.
🙂
They would need to bomb Ukraine to remove the real flow of arms.
Keep on doomin’…

MAGA.
While I understand its importance, I’ll be glad when its completed and our brave ones can come home.
JMO.
“Close to…..” / “Considering…..”
Negotiating ………. pure and simple.
Behind the scenes ………. setting up transitional government, moving towards elections, blocking russia, china and the EU ….. much like venezuela.
Pivoting to the USA’s election integrity 2026 implementation and continued defunding of the democrat / RINOs to win enough 2026 seats in the house and senate to move towards super majorities in both chambers. Along side of the heavy prosecution of the members of the 2021 coup d’état against our Constitutional Republic, Constitution and President Trump.
Followed up in 2027 with the repurposing of NATO to deport all of the illegals that were allowed to enter the European countries as well as supporting the European citizen’s TOTALEXIT to end the globalist / anti-American EU.
MAGA/America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Right on. I like your attitude.
Peace is the prize for everyone.
In my mind, as feeble as it may be, the vision thing is:
A world without Cartel controlled Venezuela
A world without Mullah controlled Iran
a world without Communist controlled Cuba
Take a few minutes and contemplate that because I believe in the next few months (single digit) that is where the world will be.
Every group President Trump has acted against works with China against the US.
Including the groups within the US and US Government.
I want to live in a nation that isn’t limping due to the population of cartel soldiers and spawn subverting our own justice system daily.
We are not privy to the things that the Commander-in-Chief and his senior military staff know. It would of course be nice if the operation is now close to being completed as planned. I am also glad that Iran’s actions against their neighbors have caused them to finally and completely “wake up.” (About time!)
I fully agree with the position on Hormuz. Our contribution has been to wipe out the military resources and installations that this regime used for the past 47 years. But it is not our place to provide military convoy operations at our own expense, when we have no financial interest in the oil that transits there. We already know that other nations would be happy for us to do it for them while they sit on their hands. But it is categorically true that interested parties must actively participate and cooperate in the operations that protect their interests, and not merely pontificate and write papers that no one will read.
Well the DOW definitely isn’t at 50,000 now. Mission accomplished.
Zzzzzz…
Yes a huge issue for those with the attention span of a goldfish.
A market correction disguised as volatility related to this event and the Straits….?
My 401k has been taking a hit, but I am not worried. It will go back up again.
It is not the total value of the Markets that generates money for the Puppet Masters nor regular participants.
Money is made by MARKET MOVEMENT and driving VOLATILITY in advantageous directions …. both of the natural-technical and purposely induced varieties by the Whales of the Market.
Australia has shut down six oil refineries over the past two decades (roughly early 2000s to early 2020s), reducing the total from eight to the current two operational ones as of March 2026.
Stupid people doing stupid stuff
WOW….that’s even more than California
The key has always been about Oil=Spice. The same gang that created Sykes-Picot do not want abundant and cheap energy, thats why the suppression of real alt energy, the truth that Oil is in many places besides the Middle east, and is not finite.
“The same gang that created Sykes-Picot do not want abundant and cheap energy, thats why the suppression of real alt energy”
Alt energy is the most expensive in the world.
“Real Alt energy” you missed the real part friend.
Iran fired intermediate long range missiles at a British airbase after Britain said we could finally use it. This missile has the capability of reaching UK, France and other European nations.
This strike came after President Trump’s post about winding down. The question is where did these missiles launch from? Russian have been seen in Iranian ports. Perhaps they are carrying more than just oil or LNG. Something like missiles perhaps?
In my opinion, IRGC has revealed it has ownership of such missiles which means we will go after them with greater intensity. It is more important than ever take hold of the Uranium. If Europe has any sense of strategic defense it would assist in the effort to insure these missiles are totally destroyed and the IRGC is removed from power.
Interesting times.
One crucial characteristic of a missile is that, at the moment of launch, satellites orbiting high in the sky obtain exact coordinates of the launch site. These days, that’s pretty much a death sentence.
‘…. obtain exact coordinates of the launch site. These days, that’s pretty much a death sentence.’
…uhhh, has one ever heard of a ‘remote control’?
hmmm…
The Israel Lobby in Us Congress
Scroll down to view all members of Congress.
https://www.trackaipac.com/congress
Why hasn’t/doesn’t AIPAC order their Democrat-Uniparty puppets in Congress to help President Donald J Trump and his MAGA agenda, since PDJT has been Israel & the Jewish peoples greatest Presidential friend? That is the question everyone should be contemplating,discussing, and calling Congress about. Why more people and especially Treepers are not, is puzzling as we are amongst the most informed………………………..
Probably because the Islamic money flowing to the same CONgress Rats far exceeds that which comes from Israeli & other Jewish sources.
CAIR & AIPAC lobby fights in congress are legendary
….Some -who can not criticize- is still very much afraid nationalistic MAGA movement this a reason why they AIP…. will not force demoncrats to help PDJT …this is all about it…..
unless they turn the entire sand pile into a glass pile, mission is not accomplished,,,,,my ex fought this mess during the Carter admin, and here we are 49 years later and my grandbaby is still fighting this mess
What is the plan to put in place a non-radical / non-crazy mullah interim and/or stable and elected government following the cessation of our military action?
There is a plan, mark my words…history may mirror or rhyme, or not, as there is the Prince…
…Brave AI about Japan:
“The United States led the Allied occupation of Japan from 1945 to 1952, following Japan’s unconditional surrender after World War II. Although the occupation was officially international, it was carried out almost entirely by U.S. forces under General Douglas MacArthur, who served as Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers (SCAP).
The occupation aimed to demilitarize Japan, democratize its political system, and reform its economy and society.”
..
Thank you for that historical perspective / reference,
which makes me think, that,
Perhaps the ‘mission’ of the U.S. Marines that are en-route to the region is to help secure the government buildings in Tehran for the new Iranian leaders that are waiting in the wings?
To i.d. them at this point would only endanger them.
🤔 🤨 🧐
I do not believe that either the United States or Israel will take it upon themselves to replace the rulers. That is up to the Iranian people to do. But we can easily do things like vaporize the “checkpoints” that the regime has been using to terrorize ordinary citizens in the streets.
This regime made a fatal mistake by attacking its neighbors, who have now woken up and turned against them. I do not believe that the next supreme leader will be a Mullah named Kahmeini . . . 🤡
I agree with you Mike, that neither the USA or Israel should or will take an overtly visible roll in installing a new government.
That said, with the chaos that could very likely ensue following the end of our offensive action, where are the assurances to the Iranian people and the world for that matter that there IS some sort of semi-orderly plan to ‘help’ to establish a new and friendly and stable government?
I have not heard much about this at all, and that is quite worrisome.
It’s called the Iran Prosperity Project. There is a detailed and well accepted plan already moving forward for a transitional government with definite milestones for the establishment of a nonsectarian constitutional form of government chosen by and voted on by the Iranian people.
The Iranian people and significant majority of elements of the Iranian diaspora overwhelmingly call for Reza Pahlavi to lead the transitional phase, and many favor a constitutional monarchy.
You can learn more here: https://rezapahlavi.org
I’ve heard its going to be Rubio. jk
Doomberg…all quotes. Europe
But let’s just look at the physics. Again, let’s go back to the physics. So in 2024, According to the Statistical Review of World Energy, Europe consumed 37 exojoules of hydrocarbons and produced five. In a free-for-all of who can turtle fastest… who’s going to be left without a chair when the music stops?
Okay, let’s drill down further, pardon the pun, and look at oil. Now, the previous numbers I gave you were for the European Union. Let’s just go for the European continent now, so inclusive of Ukraine, Norway, and Great Britain.
By the way, those last two are pretty important to include in this number because they produce most of what I’m about to say.
Europe as a continent, as the Statistical Review of World Energy defines it, consumed 14 million barrels of oil in 2024 and produced three. Or roughly the entire bogey of the Middle East. And ye, they’re bemoaning Bessent loosening Russian sanctions. Like, “Hello!” the time for such niceties, like it’s… like the Titanic is sinking and they don’t like the color of the tablecloths!
I’m sorry.
Some color commentary here. I mean, after you’ve done 19 sanctions. Yeah. I mean, this is the most important thing in the world. Nothing else really matters at this point.
I mean, talk about the definition of insanity. Forget stupid. Let’s go one up. And it’s insane
So Europe ends this winter with dangerously low natural gas supplies in storage.
Europe ought to be worried about the storage levels in their tanks. Forget about where the molecules come from. And yet, Brussels is so tone deaf and so illiterate of physics… that they are, quote, “outraged” that Bessent had the audacity to go hand and hat to Putin, which is what he did, And they’re lucky that Putin is obliging,
although he is, we note with interest, charging a premium for his oil to India these days. And I’m sure the Indians are more than glad to pay that premium.
So anyway, it is fascinating to see. One wonders how terrible it has to get for either Brussels to be shocked into reality or the good people of Europe to revolt. Because this level of insanity is truly unparalleled.
There is an old thought about “actions of governmental leaders” and leading elite members of the “progressive bent” …. nothing they espouse, none of the high minded ideals, nor direct ever impacts them directly …. as they only care about stuff that hits them square in the mouth.
The un-elected officials in Brussels will always have; houses with energy, cars with fuel, guards to insulate them and fancy-secluded places to enoy life.
If Trump decides to ban exports of $NATGAS, it would practically be free for most Americans
At minus -$4.10/MMBtu, they have to pay people to take it away
This.
We’d have to light a fire underneath both New York and Massachusetts to even think about approving a new pipeline for natural gas in the Northeast. Existing gas infrastructure is maxed out as it is.
Kinda throws cold water on all the hand wringers and pearl clutchers ALL over the media, including some on the right (you know who you are) who have been trying to roil and split Trump’s base of support by accusing him of “starting” a new Forever War.
Operation Epic Fury launched February 28. I predicted two weeks duration, three tops, then modified that to 4 weeks tops. It has now been three weeks since its launch, and 47 is saying we are “very close” to meeting our objectives and winding down. He states the 5 objectives. Notably ABSENT from his list are “regime change” and “making the world safe for democracy.” It’s now up to the Persians to decide what kind of country they want to raise their children in.
Annihilate the threat. Go home. I’d be very surprised if the operation isn’t concluded by Palm Sunday.
Note to CNN and CBS: MAGA is alive and well and united behind the leader that WE put there to get the MAGA job done. That should ruin their weekend.
Let the operation be concluded when the Commander-in-Chief and his senior military staff properly conclude that it should be. And not one hour sooner. Having embarked on this momentous effort, we should be certain to have finished it to our satisfaction.
The Iranian regime never used “boots on the ground” to project its power. It used proxies to do the killing, and it used missiles which it had in abundance, and it used extortion. Therefore, I do not expect to see a ground operation. It has a large army which would practice kamikaze.
Completely agree
Then what, Mike?
What is the plan for the transition to a peaceful and stable government, that is representative of the good people of Iran?
Respectfully.
EXACTY THIS. . .
“Notably ABSENT from his list are “regime change” and “making the world safe for democracy.” It’s now up to the Persians to decide what kind of country they want to raise their children in.”
. . .which I commented on in another thread on this website.
None of the many great and respected ‘Treepers” here, as it were, is able to address the “What happens next?” after the “Lets kill the Mullahs and their military leadership and capabiltities” concludes.
The Iranians have overwhelmingly called for the leadership of Reza Pahlavi, who is already putting things in motion to lead a transitional government under the Iranian Prosperity Plan, which has wide approval and support from Iranians inside and outside of Iran.
https://rezapahlavi.org/en
If the Iranian regime is as radical as the Japs in WWII, we may have to kill them all.
But we didn’t kill all the Japanese. We destroyed their military capability, demonstrated that to continue was futile, and forced a surrender. Sound familiar?
And, after that, many Japanese came out from underneath the long terror that had been imposed upon them. They were not, in fact, “ready to die to the last (wo)man.”
We also learned from subsequent interviews with Hirohito that he was not allowed, by others, to be quite so “imperial” as his countrymen believed him to be. When surrender was at hand, some of those radicals also plotted to kill him.
Amen, amen, amen.
Mission creep ended.
Hemispheric defense means just that.
No longer the world’s policeman.
Follow the chain of command.
Israel and the BOP got it from here.
The problem with war is that the enemy gets a vote.
And often times we don’t know who the enemy actually is …
Two nations that will not allow this war to end, in order to achieve their own objectives: 1.) Israel, 2.) Iran.
Israel will conduct another 9/11 to drag us back…..CHRIST IS KING!
Candice told you that?
HISTORY LEAST SINCE…… 1967…Harry N…
I would have thought there be a sixth objective: identifying and establishing a US friendly leadership before military operations can cease.
Yeah, NOBODY in PDJT’s administration is talking about that!
I am all for this operation to remove the genocidal mullahs, but what happens next in terms of the succession of Iran’s government / leadership, if not a positive outcome to a ‘friendly’ government, will result in severely negative outcomes for PDJT and the MAGA movement.
The Board of Peace will dissolve NATO .
After 47 years of fostering terrorism on the world,
our 47th President eliminates the threat.
President Trump should spend as much time as it takes in promoting gigantic rallies for the legislation that is supposed to end election fraud. The President himself has said numerous times that without fraud-free elections the United States as a Constitutional Republic will no longer exist.
The Iran conflict may be important but it is not NOT as important as making sure of honest elections. President Trump worked hard holding big rallies to get himself elected President. I doubt the next candidate for President will have the same gifts of talent and enthusiasm. President Trump should be working just as hard with his gifts for rallying people for a good cause to make SURE the next President of The United States is elected honestly by an honest fraud-free vote.
Come on, Mr. President. Get busy.
With the IRGC terminally weakened, it will not be up to the Iranian people to take their country back. May they succeed.
Unarmed people overthrowing an armed army?
Suicide.
Cool.
First, secure the $200 billion in defense funds.
Then you shut down the war and redirect the funds to ice and border walls.
We could let the mighty EU Army and Navy and Air Force take over after all. They’re the ones that need the oil and maybe throw the Chinese in there./S
LOL. Clown World.
The American and especially Israeli militaries have caused extensive damage to the oil infrastructure of Iran and some collateral damage to its neighbors has resulted from Iranian attacks.
When this conflict ends, returning to the world’s normal supply of energy will not follow some celebration with a brass band and President Trump cutting a ribbon on a huge switch with overly large shears.
The tanks, valves, piping, pumps, instrumentation, electrical lines, meters, transformers, supporting structures, foundations etc. which have bern destroyed will probably take years to put back together. Keeping in mind that most of these item are from a single source, China.
The effect on the world’s economy will last quite some time.
Perfect time to use real Alt energy. They’ve been using it since at least the Kenneth Arnold sighting in 1947. Perhaps that is what is really taking place? PDJT & assorted allies ending the Sykes-Picot ME oil deadly & expensive Chessboard.
Have we got our hands on the 400+ kilos of 60% enriched uranium the Iranians claim to have yet? We cannot leave any enriched uranium in their hands.
Bibi & AIPAC should be ordering all of their puppets in Congress, Democrats & Uniparty to support not only Voting security with this SAVE Act, but President Trump’s whole MAGA agenda as President Trump & MAGA has been Bibi’s,Israel, & AIPAC’s greatest friend . Why they haven’t already is a hard question we all need to contemplate.
Trump accomplished nothing. Time will tell!
But what about that enriched uranium they’re holding onto though?
Does “everything else pertaining to them” include the drones we keep hearing about?
That Iran will keep producing and are expanding all over?
Hoping that’s fake news but I think I read about it on Sam Faddis’s site?

Iran’s Most Powerful Weapon
Excerpt:
But Iran still has one of the most powerful weapons in the world on its side, and it is ruthlessly deploying it – the American press corps.

Well, investors are not listening one bit, every day they continue to drop the stock market lower, just killing people‘s retirement accounts, ignoring anything positive from the administration
Wonderful news, but oil will most likely be traded in another currency than the dollar from now on in the region. It was a foolish endeavor from the beginning. Fortunately, most of the MAGA base has caught on to how the US has been abused by a foreign entity.
“It will be an easy military operation for them”.
Jesus! He’s telling Europe that America is done with middle eastern oil and NATO. He’s also offering them (with a little work) the keys to an energy paradise. Can’t they see it?
Knowing Starmer, Mertz, and Macron, they’ll probably send a Greenpeace ship full of mentally ill “End Oil” scolds.
A lot of the world gets its oil through the Straight. The world should police it. Iran shouldn’t be able to control it.
Surly by now intel has identified how to get munitions to those inside, those who can begin to eliminate the ghouls straight away.
I’m also surprised there haven’t been huge printed info drops on Tehran and the major cities.
Where’s the CIA when you need them.
