It's a very big deal

We keep hearing that Mango Mussolini is looking for an off ramp because he is bored already and already looking at another country to go to war with according to Lindsey Graham.

The war he started in the ME is no where near over. It's literally just starting.

The US and Israel are running out of interceptors.

The problem is that Iran and Hezbollah and whoever else, are just getting started. They are estimated to still have thousands of missiles and drones.

This unilateral attack on a significantly well equipped and well manned military without a goal, a plan to reach that goal and an exit strategy, was a fuck up of epic proportions.

We are screwed.

1. WTF...............

I have no faith in US Intelligence, but Israel?

Israel have top of the line intelligence.

2. How many previous president knew this was not realistic?

That's what Trump is doing here, he's thinking, "We should have done this a long time ago."

But Both Bushes, Clinton, Obama, Biden, and even Trump in his first term did not do this because they did not see a clear path to any achievable goals. What has changed? If Iran nearing a nuclear weapon is what changed, we have only Trump to blame for that.

This does not seem like we have any plan at all. BiBi wanted it so Trump did it.

3. I suspect the Israelis made a calculated guess

that they could destroy enough launchers and facilities to degrade Iran's offensive capabilities before they ran out of interceptors.

Their track record so far has been pretty good......but the Iranians understand the game and have had plenty of time to prepare as well.

One thing we should have learned from the war in Ukraine is that things have changed a bit.

4. The Houthis are going to go after oil tankers.

If oil hits 100 dollars a barrel or higher, OPEC and Krasnov's billionaire fossil fuel friends are not going to be able to keep gasoline and diesel where they are now. A big jump in gas prices is going to turn unwashed Magats against Krasnov, not to mention it will skyrocket inflation.
