[See the full post at: Debt Rattle March 3 2026]Saw a bumper sticker yesterday.
It said:
“Make Israel look like Gaza”The graves of the little girls killed in the missile attak on their school in Iran.
Ayatollah Khamenei grand daughter also killed in a missile attack.
Hundreds of thousands of brave Iranians in #Minab County at the funeral of 165 elementary school girls who were massacred in joint US-Israeli attacks
Trumptard’s Empire of Lies Attacked a Civilization
Persia will never run out of Generals, Soldiers, and Arrows.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:
The Kuwaitis said that their bases were not being used against Iran. If that is so, what were the three fighter jets targeted today doing on Kuwaiti soil?
A Bottomless Pit of Lies
For Dr. D,
Pepe Escobar & Larry C. Johnson: US-Israel HIT Tehran, Iran DESTROYS Tel Aviv, Hezbollah NOW Joins
If Dr D, Trumptard’s fanboy, probably doesn’t know what Perfidy means in the legal sense, perhaps our host at TAE can post a story about it to help him out.
A story from my past:
When I was a teenager decades ago I was taking to a man who had been a US army soldier in WWII fighting front-line in Germany in early 1945.
He told me his Company was advancing towards a German city that was surrounded on all sides. The German soldiers in the tree line in front of them were desperately trying to breakout and put up heavy resistance all day, halting any US advance.
That evening, under a white flag they indicated them wanted a truce to talk. His Lieutenant went out to the middle of the road to meet them and talk. It was pitch black and moonless that night so he didn’t know or hear what had happened until day break.
He said his Lieutenant had been killed that night, in the road, a German soldier had stabbed him. His. body was lying in the road between the two front lines.
The leading Sargent in the Company of was now in control, because the Lieutenant was dead, and immediately called up a tank and had it fire several dozen tank rounds, point blank, into the tree line they faced.
He said white flags finally began to appear up and down the German line. German soldiers came out of the tree line with their hands up and weapons put down on the ground.
They started walking unarmed up the road that separated the two front lines towards his position, there was about 20 of them.
When they all got pretty close to the American line, his Sargent gave the order to open fire on them.
His company stopped when they were apparently all dead. They went out and shot all twenty Germans in the head just to make sure they were all dead and then threw all their bodies into the deep watery ditch around the side of the road and continue down the road towards the city. He said his Sargent told his company it was payback for killing the Lieutenant under a white flag of truce.
He looked me straight in the eye at the end of his story and said, “Things don’t happen like the movies kid.”
Donald Trump is guilty of Perfidy with Iran
He attacked Iran under the truce of negotiations.
It is consider under International Law to be a War Crime
Perfidy: a noun meaning deceitfulness, treachery, or a deliberate breach of trust.
In international law, it refers to a war crime involving the abuse of protected status (e.g., feigning surrender, misuse of the Red Cross) to kill or injure an adversary.
Derived from Latin perfidia (“through faith”), common synonyms include betrayal, treason, and duplicity.
No one in the world is going to trust him from here on out.
He will lose the Mid-terms big time and be Impeached for the remaining two years.
He has disgraced Ah’merica but brought Glory to the Empire of Lies
It looks like the Iranians are putting ‘Fuel – Air’ warheads on some missiles
“At the moment, we don’t have approval to publish the name and details of this missile.”
The Russians used them in Ukraine, maybe they “shared” with Iran.
These are devastating and kill deep into bunkers with blanketing shock waves that suck all the oxygen out of a huge area.
“Things don’t happen like the movies kid.”The contrail of the latest hypersonic Iranian missile.
Very eerie like nothing I’ve ever seen.
Make Tel Avi look like Gaza
The USSA carrier Lincoln abandoned it’s position and left the Middle East after only a day and a half on duty.
Military commentators have said that is very unusually short period of time.
Maybe it’s toilets don’t flush
Trumptard needed a knockout or technical knockout in roughly two weeks. It’s been three days.
He’s already moved the goalposts from four days to “four-to-five weeks”
THIS DAY IN HISTORY – US jets bomb Ho Chi Minh Trail – 1965
I remember it well.
Let’s look at the other side for a sec: Gold? Nope. Silver? Nope. Oil? Nope. Markets? Nope.
Sounds like somebody knows something we don’t. Markets say this isn’t a war, isn’t even worth rocking prices over. Yes that seems odd to me too, but there you are. So let’s add another: U.S. Carrier? Nope. How about Straits of Hormuz? It’s debated. Basically open but few want to try. It’s not mined and probably can’t be. Is Iran even TRYING? What’s going on over there?
What’s on today? “Iran calls Islam against the West”
Nope. Half of who’s fighting Iran isn’t “The West” but UAE, Saudi, Kuwait, Bahrain. Would you like to try again with your memes? This isn’t a cartoon. There are many levels. Don’t use crayon.
Iran stands with Russia, China…Nope! They are not involved…yet. Would you like to try again?
“Iran has all air defense, S400, local MANPADS, Sunburns, will mop the floor with US Carriers and Israel.” NOPE! Would you like to try again? They have stuff, we have stuff. They get a chance to shoot, we get a chance to shoot.
So what’s going on? How come we knew exactly where to hit and hit it without trouble? Their response seems generally chaotic, and hitting everything…except America. What gives? This is still huge “fog of War” but perhaps we can tell that much already.
Israel’s getting hit? A huge sitting target? Good. Idgaf. Let them get blown to pieces, none of my business, hope they do. But is even that all that bad? We’ve had days now. The major hit so far? 3 Planes? Apparently we blew them up ourselves, although maybe that’s a cover story. Hardly seems generous to our abilities if so.
Speaking of, what was the first minutes? Was it Israel hit them and so Iran’s response hit us? (See Rubio, below) Everything is hazy and no one has specifics right now.
Does anyone even know if/how Iran hit Cyprus or was that UK making s—t up? Has the 80 -> 180 girls been revised down to 8 yet? I’m just reporting that fog of war exists here. Don’t believe things. Like is the Ayatollah really dead? Maybe an Iranian police sergeant shot him. Maybe he’s perfectly fine. How would I know? Wait to see.
Violence in Embassies, only the number that NGOs can pay for. This is not a world movement. Why? On the face of it our actions seem pretty egregious. Muslim world doesn’t care? Why?
“Not a few prominent figures on the Right also deplored Operation Epic Fury. [gag] The increasingly rogue Trump-hater and Israel vilifier, Tucker Carlson, called the action “disgusting and evil.” MTG called it “unnecessary and is unacceptable.” Blackwater founder Erik Prince colored it as “not serving America’s interests and inconsistent with President Trump’s MAGA agenda.” Rep. Thomas Masie (R-KY) framed his objection in Congress’s prerogative to declare war — though the War Powers Act of 1973 permits the president to conduct military operations for 60 days” –Kunstler
And P.S. T.A.C.O. What? Yes, Trump is bad if he has peace, but also bad if he has war. That’s #Logic. Right now, of course, we’re in the “Hate for War” part, but will quickly return to the whole previous year of “Hate Trump for Peace” part. Ahhh. Satisfaction. The Hate must flow. Mo’ Hate is mo’ betta.

“Britain Reconsiders 78% North Sea Oil Tax As Investment Slows”
A level critics argue borders on ridiculosity.”No! The State owns the means of production! 100% is not too high! That’s why the Proletariat is white with hunger there and they’re taking shopping tours to Switzerland.
“Macron Throws Out French Nuclear Policy Over Russia And China Threats
This article is insane, I’m sure he’ll add it. France is deploying to “Other nations”. Liiiiike, Germany? Sweden? Wait: they have militaries, they won’t want you. It’s a “Forward Deployment”. Forward of what? Like the front? As opposed to the rear? Like, as in “Front lines”? What is he deploying? Nuclear weapons and nuclear jets. Ah, I think I’ve cracked the code! Could it be: “Nuclear bombs to the front lines in Ukraine for $500 Alex?”
“Macron cites threats from Russian and China”
China is landing in Marseilles? No, actually you’ve been conquered but as far from by Russia and China as is worldly possible. By homeless men from Africa and the Middle East. Have you thought about deploying to Nice? You’re already a conquered nation, sir. You’re already not free. You WERE the front lines, and now you’ve been overrun with “Not-France”.

Someone went to jail. So long as they’re below the office of dog catcher they’re fair game.
“Putin Decries ‘Cynical Murder’ of His Friend Ayatollah Khamenei
Krainer was extremely upset by this point. I disapprove but was not that upset. Anyone want to explain? We kill only people below dog catcher and not officers in wars?
Christophorou says “Trump says Iran should rise up” as if this is ridiculous. Uhhh…Who else is there? Albania isn’t going to be their new leadership. Russia isn’t, the U.S. isn’t. Those new leaders will be Iranian. I know what he means, but do I know what – I – mean? So we’re saying there are reasonable and normal people who can take the reins and unreasonable and silly people to take over. Question: How about a Pirate and a slave driver? A do-nothing blowhard and a failed general? Are they “Proper” people to take over and form government? Because those are the Founding Fathers here. Is anyone saying who is allowed in that category and who isn’t? I haven’t heard so. Venezuela is run by even the same party with the same principles and that’s fine, so I expect even the same Iranian Party is fine. So…explain? What do you mean here? How about a trafficked kid photographed with Saville? A gay bathhouse coke guy? How about a 5-foot man whose wife beats him in public? Those are all legit?
“MIC Maggots just threw Trumptard under the bus with press release saying they warned him NOT to do this because they didn’t have enough ammo to complete it. Hahahahaha!”
Of course they did. After doing everything in their earthy power to make it happen, told every lie about how quick and contained it would be. Doesn’t matter what they lied if he fell for it. The hour is getting late for that but there’s still time.
OPTM Video Channel: “Humiliation of Arrogance” Okay, so it’s Chinese AI. They talk like this. “It’s not this, it’s that”. They highlight the F15s. When they were shot down by ourselves? “Captured”. Da fuq? Do you know how far Kuwait is from Iran? What do you mean??/ “Dismantling the myth of the war machine”. Jesus, sure looks like “our” war machine smashed the f—k out of Iran, not that that’s a good thing. Just saying if your claim is that our hardware doesn’t work, that’s false. It’s working adequately. What did they THINK would happen? They mock our “Decapitation strikes” WE DID THAT! That was a total “Win” thank you. Our Decapitating everybody = We decapitated nobody. Right. Da fuq U smokin’?
They then move to an outdated drone they shot down decades ago, and a random unrelated news interview. This is based on a long series of false premises. That we think we’re masters of the world. We don’t. That we think we’re invulnerable. We don’t. That we will take no hits. We will. He then crows about ONE guy getting killed. If you’re doing that, you’re proving that our force is going very, very, extremely WELL. Meanwhile, he’s talking about very real hits on Israel taking out infrastructure that can’t hide. Good. And I didn’t even have to pay them. Nutsy wanted this, and Israel will be sunk (I think MacGregor said). Good. What better outcome than this? Totally worth it.
They’re crowing because they have the false belief Trump LIKES Israel. It’s pretty clear he doesn’t, but Israel bought Congress, so he has to deal with them. Nor does most of America. Like me idgaf what happens to Israel so long as I never have to hear about them again.
“The international community is splitting apart” No it isn’t. Europe just JOINED. (By sending no men nor anything else. Attaboy) “They bet on a quick war” Using his DonaldTelepathy. Did he? This is a constant we see even with all the smart people, Krainer, or like CryptoRich, trying to run previous programs as they don’t quite fit. How do YOU know what they were thinking? “The U.S. Embassy is burning.” So? Idgaf. That’s what happens in wars. Why would I care? It’s no embarrassment to me, nor is it militarily relevant. Most Americans won’t even be aware we’re IN a war. If you make piss-poor root assumptions, you make terrible decisions.
All of this is what I think is irrelevant to what is actually happening and why. In that sense AI is working perfectly, lying, keeping our eye off the ball, and wasting infinite time.
“Lions Led by Donkeys – Who’s Really Leading Our Forces?” Who’s the Lion? I don’t see any of those.
Asian Guy: “The just his 20% of Europe’s gas supply”. Yeah, but you say that like we CARE about it, and didn’t want it to happen. 20% of Europe’s gas down is a dream come true. We didn’t even have to pay them!
“Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says Iran is “not at war with regional countries” but it is with the United States after the country was attacked on Saturday.”
Okay, that’s interesting. No attacks on U.S. here, or if the random shootings were they’re irrelevant harassment we hardly notice. So Iran hard-BOMBED all the Sunni rivals in the Gulf…on accident…he says? Explain. Yet they took NO actions inside U.S. borders. Again, explain.
What you’re seeing is the fault lines inside Iran. The “Pro British” for lack of a better term, the minions, vs a substantial portion of actual, normal Iranians who are rightfully annoyed their country was bombed, and are shooting back. Just like DefMin, ForMin being MI6 makes sense. Ordinary generals hitting things in their gun sights makes sense.
“the global insurance market may be heading toward a systemic crisis.”
Same thing: taking out LONDON. “Globalists” are roughly equal to “Rentier” class. That make risk-free middle man money, Banking and Insurance. FIRE. Forex trading. Rigging/setting (commodity) market prices, like African uranium at $2 and not $200. Russia/China already opened this market by self-insuring. Now more. That’s also why they must dig ore in Chile, ship it to America, then China, then back to America, then Chile again with 5-10 “Globalism” round trips and why tariffs will kill them. He’s hitting exactly who he wants.
“the attack was launched in order to kill the deal which appeared to be close to fruition...
..US Secretary of State Marco Rubio told lawmakers on Tuesday that Israel was going to attack Iran “with or without” the US so the question was when, not if, the US would get involved...”This is extremely likely, and we know that they know that we know… This is Level 2, if they (Israel) can’t get an actual false flag. So we set it up that we take out Iran’s traitors with Russian sign-off, and protect ourselves (no carriers sunk) while Iran gets another free reign to blow Israel to kingdom come with my blessing.
“..NYT’s David Sanger” Uses his “DonaldTelepathy” to make the opposite point: “that the Iranian “war of choice” was chosen by Trump…Iran was at its historic weakest point politically, and was judged to be vulnerable enough to be ‘finished off’
“Finished off” how, sir? Iran is going to be run by Iranians. We don’t have 10 men there to occupy it. What do you mean? We can’t pick their leader. Iran will also remain stronger than Israel, while Israel, being tiny, may die. Soooo????
“..The Council on Foreign Relations quietly noted: “Taking out Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is not the same as regime change. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is the regime”
Critical ^^^^^^^^
Ah. There you have it. Iranians do not run Iran. They are run by their equivalent of the CIA. Exactly the people we suggest are MI6 Globalists. And here the Globalists themselves are saying so. Love good quotes like this. Who retaliated in the larger war, hitting everybody in the Gulf, furiously attempting to have a world war? I propose it was these guys. What did they hit? Nothing. I mean, it’s not a “Military” strike, it’s a “Let’s blow up all our neighbors to piss them off” strike. See the difference? If you were “London” you need the war and conflict, bad blood to never end. If you’re “Iran” you would hit a lot of targets, but not in this manner. Because the two look so similar, MI6 gets away with it for 200 years.
“Iran operating on pre-written orders after Khamenei’s assassination – no centralized command to stop it...”
Yes, so IRGC/London pre-set this as a “Trap” for Trump, he was sold it was a limited strike-and-response, it was their job to cause a Third World War. I don’t think they have the steam to get there. Rubio says, and I think Alistair also said.
“Trump admitted the war may last four weeks.” That’s incredibly short, what is he “admitting” (Opinion word)?
“Pentagon war gaming assumed Khamenei’s death would collapse the regime; the opposite happened”
Of course. The Pentagon ALWAYS says “It will take one week; they’ll greet us with flowers.” All wars are good wars. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-JeQduJ0f8
“..US used Anthropic’s Claude AI for target identification, intelligence assessment, and battle simulations in Operation Epic Fury”
No wonder it was screwed up. Also the point is to say “Trump banned them” Yeah, and no one obeys Trump, as I keep saying. So it’s his fault because he gives orders, BUT ALSO his fault no one follows his orders. Pick one.
Ah but if I admit the CIA and Pentagon, State nor DoJ haven’t followed Presidential orders since Ike in 1959, who will I HATE??? I must, must HATE.
“Gilbert Doctorow sees BRICS not really existing if it can’t fight the western empire.”
Sort of. But I feel like this is a power-projection thing back to Israel. BRICS would be able to help a land invasion. I feel this is misguided, BRICS is fine. More, SAUDI is a “BRICSS” now, so what’s with that?
“..Trump’s action yesterday was immediately denounced by a member of Congress as violating the Constitution by opening war on Iran without authorization of Congress. We will see how far this censure goes, but it is a good start towards curbing autocracy in the Oval Office. https://gilbertdoctorow.substack.com/p/trumps-attack-on-iran-message-to
I agree, but they have allowed this from 50-100 years now. If they curb it, it will be a tremendous win for Trump and America First, a return to the Constitution, so please do.
“Trump Claims ‘We Will Easily Prevail’ In Iran War” Well, I mean Iran isn’t invading and hasn’t hit a single thing here, so…yes.
“Markets:
No indication”yet” that we are in a war. Business as usual.” –WES Yes. (next section)“This [rape] stood in sharp contrast to the cultural climate of the #MeToo era,”
BothNeitherAi. Is it a POWERFUL person? Then there is no crime. Is it a normal, non-state person? Then you can do anything to them with impunity. ANYTHING. That’s not an exaggeration if you ever thought it was. You can gang rape 12 year olds in the streets and walk. You can open 70 biolabs and release a worldwide pandemic, have your laptop and emails all publicized and walk. You can shoot a President multiple times…
“Return of the death penalty for the most heinous crimes”
Done in one. Hegelean Dialectic, EITHER let rapists do anything, OR go bankrupt jailing them by the millions. No, actually. We do NOT have to pick those two. We longer have to deport you. We can inexpensively execute you right here. All it takes is to pick British girls over Pakistani rapists. The “British” girls don’t have to even be white, Idgaf, it was the “Rape” part, we were saying No to actually? I know that’s unthinkable for you?
“Starmer Stunned After Green Party Steals Labour Seat” This is the one where voting is all ethnic-block now. Like 3rd world countries, and Green LOVES this. Okay, sold. White can vote as one block, you said. That’s no longer racist, you said. This is just normal politics, you said.
“Douglas MacGregor: A New World Emerges: Iran Will Win & Israel May Not Survive”
Duh, but that was self-evident. That’s the POINT. Iran literally can’t “lose” because they will still be there tomorrow. Therefore that was never the plan. Israel may not survive? Hahahahahaha! Trump hates them anyway! THEY wanted this. THEY demanded it. THEY wouldn’t stop until they got it, so like Play #5 in our almost zero playbook is, “When they want something, LET THEM, good and hard.” Stop saving them from their own destruction; Natural Consequences. This is LITERALLY the ENTIRE 1,000 page book called “Atlas Shrugged” and although they’ve tried everything, nothing else has worked.
Asian Guy “Everyone on earth begs Trump to stop” Huh? Uhhh…me no think so. They’re begging BRUSSELS? Uh, no Brussels just said they’re in on it. All in! They’re calling RUSSIA? No, because Russia won’t do anything. This ENTIRE video I can only guess is made up. Saudi KNEW doing the refueling would get them bombed. Duh. They got bombed and don’t care, I mean, so far as anyone can tell. His argument “We” will be kicked out of the whole Middle East, which isn’t happening at all? Good! I hope we do! But this is just made up. Again, the best he can say is “Tourism was closed”? Wtf, man? He then calls on markets, who as above, indicate NOTHING. Zero change in gold, silver, oil, Dow… “ It’s all been repriced” = Has not been repriced.
And we just drove all Europe into capitulation to Russia? Hahahahaha! GOOD! Man how much would you have to pay to get that service? If it cost a BILLION dollars it would be worth it, ending both wars. This is all because they MIS-TELEPATHY Trump’s, or our, motives. There is no possible larger win, thank you non-Asian non-Guy, for demonstrating how genius the Americans actually are.
He then says ALLL the po’ brown dummies, the silly towel-heads, Asian guy says, had Nooooo idea you could launch a “warplane” from a “Base.” Ah. Right. Suuuuuure they didn’t. What a shocking racist f–k! War is shattering US-EU deals, exactly as Europe jumps aboard. Can he just say ONE thing correctly? Zero gas from Kuwait means the U.S. — the only remaining source of LNG – has Noooooo leverage over Europe. Uhhhh, Whut? I think we do! We have infinity leverage ‘til Europe capitulates to Moscow.
This guy has a SUPERNATURAL talent of being wrong. Could he PLEASE say a single thing that’s true, and save my loving sanity? For the love of saints and Christmas, save me! My wallet has friction-fire from opening it this often to bet against him.
“Alex Krainer: Iran War – Economic Disaster & End of Trump”
Yes, and most of this is very serious. But we’re a day in. It depends what happens now. My bet is Trump knew this wouldn’t be easy, even tho they lied, told him it would be, then threw him under the bus, as normal NeoCons (meanign 100% of everyone in D.C.) And he knew this. But did he re-calibrate their lies ENOUGH? I would not do this and disapprove. I would have fought the same people at home (London, Globalists), and a lot more Americans would be killed, but the actions would be honorable. Can you grasp both points of view?
“Pepe Escobar & Larry C. Johnson: US-Israel HIT Tehran, Iran DESTROYS Tel Aviv, Hezbollah NOW Joins”
(Checks Map) Tel Aviv is still there. Almost completely there. What do you mean, sir? Hezbollah has not joined even 10%. They have a LOT of hardware, if they “Joined” you wouldn’t bloody well miss it. Unless Hezbollah is some kids with a pop gun, they haven’t joined at all. It gets off his/their Fee-Fees.
“The United States is being pushed back to its own borders.” –DBS
No, we’ve been trying to get back to our borders since the mid-90s. That’s why Clinton killed all the Generals who advised this “America First” thing, then installed “W”. They knew the tide then and the Constitutional decay. So that faction has been fighting tooth and nail every day during that time and millions were killed. This is a Civil War. Of Ideas, in a sense. You and I are also casualties, and “In for the Duration”. Dr. Rich was a serious casualty, of course, taken out in battle. In some ways we’ve been fighting this same thing since McKinley, 1913, and Wilson. Over and over. Also fought in 1776, 1840, and 1860, but we won those times.
Again, right now Iran has a chance to stop the same internal parasites we still have in our own ranks, in Langley, with Graham, Swalwell, Newsome, Walz…
Zionaziland and the Empire of Lies haven’t been able to enter Iranian air space with planes. Standoff missiles, like the Tomahawk, have been hitting targets in Iran.
On the other hand Zionaziland and the Empire of Lies have only been able to intercept at best 1/3 of Iranian missiles with the ‘Boondoggle Hand Made Patriot’ $4 million each missile.
Within the week those Empire of Lies missiles will be gone everywhere accept parts of Zionaziland.
All Empire of Lies military bases in the Middle East will be smoking rubble.
The Empire of Lies will lie about causalities but many USSA service people will be dead.
The Pentagram already hides deaths of USSA personnel who died in Ukraine by paying off families and threatening them not to disclose their loved ones died ‘in theater’
They will go into overdrive hiding causalities from Trumptard’s Middle East debacle.
Speaking of avoiding embarrassment, those three F-18s shot down in Kuwait were either shot down from gross incompetence as ‘friendly fire’ OR Iran claimed they shot them down.
So which is more embarrassing?
Today:
“CROOKE: IRAN’S SHOCK COUNTERSTRIKE – THE WAR THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING”It’s not a shock and so far nothing’s changed. What do you mean, sir? This is MI6 talking points? What?!!?!!
Note the language: IF something’s changed, that’s bad, but if (in my view) nothing’s changed that’s ALSO bad. All things are bad. Huh? Whut? Logic, sir. Tell us. Enlighten us, oh Master, what is the GOOD thing?
“The reason Trump decided to bomb Iran was the Israelis said, for the first time, ‘If you don’t bomb Iran we’re going to use nuclear weapons.‘”
This is EXTREMELY likely, and same as last time. Trump is fighting not them, but the ISRAELI LOBBY, in Congress. Like he could say “So what?” except for the Israel lobby at home. Okay, so Israel did: how does he get out of it? A: Let Iran bomb Israel at-will again. Done. YOU wanted it! Don’t cry to me, Bibi, nutters in AIPAC, I did exactly what YOU wanted, good and hard. See? Does this make slightly more sense now?
Nope! Not if it removes my HATE! Not even if it re-directs it to a rational target.
“”The United States is suffering significant material losses”
Wtf are you talking about? No we haven’t. All our factories are fine, not even one Navy boat sunk. Jesus Christ these guys can lie. What are we, 20-50 soldiers dead? That’s one Leftist Christmas parade ramming, or 10 minutes in our Fentanyl wards.
“”The United States is suffering significant material losses”
Jesus, I hope so. HAS ANYONE NOT SEEN Trump trying to withdraw home, for the love of all things holy? Is not NOT exactly what everyone lost their minds over in Ukraine? Boy, would be awful if they threw Trump in the briar path he constantly says he wants to be in, and we had to come home and put …America….First….
“.. delivering quick regime change and falling oil prices that cement Trumpism as a historic win, OR sparking Middle East chaos and global blowback..”
That’s the question, but what does either phrase mean? A: Nothing. It’s all PR perception, unrelated to any truth at all.
“Trump Claims ‘We Will Easily Prevail’ In Iran War (ZH)
The speech was gibberish, but we’ve taken essentially no losses, so I guess he’s right. Shipyards in Maine, New Orleans, San Diego? Huh. All fine! Wow! No C-130s, lift capacity lost. Not a single train derailed. All our Steel and aluminum plants online, no refineries burnt. What do these words mean? We lost more people to Chinese drugs in the last 4 days that all soldiers combined.
“Russia and China knew the attack was coming-before it happened. Putin and Xi both decided to stay silent. “The Russians and Chinese have known all of this. They have concluded that if they tried to deter militarily the US-Israeli attack, it would go ahead anyway, and with nuclear weapons.”
That would be bad, and again, likely true. Also DON’T FOLLOW TRUMP. Listen to Xi and Putin. Here’s what they said, we bet. Like you think Russia wouldn’t be aware of a major, mega strike inside our military? They’re that blind? Man, you think the Russians are incompetent retards if so. Yet it appears Iran did NOT know. Again, that means Russia-China signed off. WHY. And they JUST gave them air defense. So WHY?
Okay great: presume this is true. WHAT should Cheeto Captain Dum-Dum DO then? Go sob in a corner? Yup! We just give up! If we can’t be PERFECT, the only alternative is to shoot everyone else in the foxhole with us! Yes!!!
No. He does what he did. Can you grasp this yet? Israel (hopefully) gets blown to pieces, stopping his domestic problems. He has very solid reasons he “can’t” do XYZ in the Gulf anymore. Europe gets blown to bits by high prices. Ultimately, Iran prevails, with BRIICSS. Good. Fine. Possibly the MI6 moles running the IRGC are out. Good. We can be sure the Ayatollah was one of the MI6 made men — Jesus, they hung out in Paris before 1979, do they have to tattoo it on their forehead? But we’re not supposed to have “Perfidy” against “Perfidious Albion” who’s screwed the Iranian people for 100 years. We have to play Cricket, Queensbury Rules while they don’t.
Right. Well, if that was going to work, it would have worked in the 100 years before now. Your plans would just LOSE again. Obviously, we’ve tried them since before the UN existed. You ask for this, then we lose, then you point and whine and blame. No.
““.. under Article I, Section 8, Clause 11, only Congress may declare wars. The result has been over two centuries of conflicts between presidents and Congress.”
• Fight or Flight: How Trump Boxed in Congress on War Powers (Turley)Many are calling Impeachment on this point. C’mon, man! JHC. Did you not JUST see that in Iraq? We had a REAL war, not a fake one, in BOTH Iraqs, with NO official declaration of war. We did 8 YEARS, or 20, or whatever, and no one blinked an eye. Again, personally to me this is illegal, but they all act like America started Jan 8 2016. For the love of Jesus, read a book. This has been front page most of our lives now.

““Last night, all over Iran, the voices of the Iranian people could be heard cheering and celebrating in the streets when his death was announced.”
Doubt it. Somewhere? Sure. But no one wants to be bombed. These are the “Happy, happy love bombs”. No.
See, if we had slapped a Pride flag on them, the bombs would be good!“18 months. By comparison, the Navy’s F/A-XX to replace the aging F/A-18 multirole jets with a modern platform started in 2012, and they haven’t even chosen a design.
Pointing out all our problems are voluntary, on purpose. We can fix it any time we want to. Wait! No! The U.S. must be infinitely bad and infinitely lose! My Feelings say so! Hey, Toyota just made a $12,000 work truck. Solved in 60 seconds when you said that was impossible. We just made more oil when you said there wasn’t any. We just stopped essentially all crime in Minneapolis in a week by deporting criminals. All this was “impossible”. It’s all made-up.
“The Left’s Iran Meltdown: Outrage on Cue, Memory on Vacation (David Manney)
Okay, yes. Of course. BUT ALSO that was IRAN’S money? That we stole/froze in 1979? Check me on this, these law cases get complicated. Take it how you want, and it’s not his point, just adding it here. Obama DID want a powerful, deadly Iran, so why and who was he working for? We already know. Kenya is a colony of whom?

Ah, so they disapprove of their own approving. Got it. Yeah, I know, that’s why I haven’t mentioned it. The REAL problem was the lack of Rainbow Flags on the ordinance, we know. Again above ^^ All these CongressTraitors work for Israel. So they’re in the bad position of being on the same Team.
Down on the ground, the Left is horrified. Heck the Right is mostly horrified too. But neither understands it at all, seeming like a meteor strike, sort of. Odd response, but that’s like the slap of bologna on the baby’s head: it makes no sense, they have no coherent reaction. This might galvanize. The media obeys Israel, so they’re in a jam too. They want to to completely fail and everyone to die – as does everyone here, I guess. Only then will they be happy. Again, to split Trump between America and Israel was all they have, and it’s a pretty good plan. They’re doing it on turbo. The media has to say doing Israel’s bidding in endless war is a GOOD thing, but also Trump did it so it’s also an infinity BAD thing, and that’s exactly what they’re saying. Everyone’s brians are melting — even here — so it’s mostly working.

He has 60 days (again, I disagree with this) and it’s logical to take half that time to finish. How many bombs do you think are in theater? Will he lose elections? Hard to tell, but it ups the odds very substantially. Americans don’t like it at all. Half are insane so he could cure cancer, it wouldn’t matter, but the other half voted against war.

When Iran finishes off the Gulf State’s air defenses thru attrition missile attacks it will be open season for destroying Saudi oil storage, pumping and pipelines and destroying Qatar LNG storage and terminals.
Gee, I wonder what that will do to prices.
Dr D will probably claim the prices will go down.
Grok:
what price effect if the Strait of Hormuz closed for months
A closure of the Strait of Hormuz for several months would likely trigger a massive global energy shock, pushing oil prices into triple digits and potentially causing a global recession.
As of March 2026, the Strait of Hormuz is facing significant disruption following US-Israeli strikes on Iran.
The projected price effects for a prolonged closure include:
Immediate Price Surge: Analysts at CNBC and Goldman Sachs warn that oil could immediately jump to $100–$120 per barrel.
Worst-Case Scenarios: If the blockade is maintained, some experts predict prices could rocket to $150 per barrel or higher.
Oxford Economics notes a “tail risk” where prices reach $140 within a week.
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Impact: Roughly 20% of the world’s LNG passes through the strait, primarily from Qatar. A closure would cause a severe supply shock in Asia and Europe, potentially doubling or tripling spot gas prices.
Consumer Costs: Retail fuel prices for gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuel would likely rise by 20–40%
Shipping & Logistics: The cost of hiring supertankers has already doubled to over $400,000 per day for certain routes, and war insurance premiums are skyrocketing.
Why the impact is so severe:
The strait handles about 20-30% of global seaborne oil (roughly 21 million barrels per day). Alternative pipelines operated by Saudi Arabia and the UAE can only bypass about 2.6 to 3 million barrels per day, leaving approximately two-thirds of Gulf exports stranded.

Has Iran attacked oil tankers in the Persian Gulf 2026?
Yes
Iran has attacked multiple oil tankers in and around the Persian Gulf in early March 2026 as part of a significant escalation in regional conflict.
According to recent reports, these actions are retaliatory strikes following a joint U.S.-Israeli military operation, Operation Epic Fury, which targeted Iranian leadership and infrastructure.
Reported Tanker Incidents (March 2026)
Targeted Vessels: At least three tankers were reportedly damaged by missiles or drones on March 1 and 2, including the Palau-flagged Skylight, the Marshall Islands-flagged MKD Vyom, and the Gibraltar-flagged Hercules Star.
Specific Attacks:
The Skylight was hit north of Khasab, Oman, resulting in a fire and crew evacuation.
The Athe Nova (Honduran-flagged) was reportedly struck by two Iranian drones in the Strait of Hormuz, causing a blaze.
The Stena Imperative, a U.S.-managed tanker, was hit by “aerial impacts” while berthed in the Gulf, resulting in one fatality.
Casualties: Reports confirm at least two deaths and multiple injuries resulting from these maritime attacks.
Status of the Strait of Hormuz
Effective Closure:
While not legally blockaded, the Strait is “effectively closed” due to extreme security risks and the withdrawal of war-risk insurance by major providers.
Iranian Warnings:
Senior officials from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) have explicitly declared the waterway “closed” and threatened to set any unauthorized passing vessels “ablaze”.
Shipping Response:
Over 150 tankers have dropped anchor outside the Strait to avoid the conflict zone, while major shipping lines like Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd have suspended all transit through the region.
Ask the Magic 8 Ball
Have insurance companies stopped insuring oil tankers going to the Strait of Hormuz?
Yes, many major maritime insurance companies have canceled war-risk coverage for vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz. This mass withdrawal has effectively rendered the waterway a “no-go zone” for many commercial tankers.
Key details regarding the current insurance status include:
Widespread Cancellations:
More than half of the 12-member International Group of P&I Clubs—which insures about 90% of the world’s ocean-going fleet—issued notices to terminate war-risk insurance for the Persian Gulf and adjacent waters.Effective Date: Most of these cancellations take effect at midnight London time on March 5, 2026.
Specific Insurers Involved:
Companies that have issued cancellation notices include Gard, Skuld, NorthStandard, the London P&I Club, and the American Club.Reasoning:
Insurers cite a “materially heightened level of geopolitical and operational uncertainty” following retaliatory strikes and threats from Iran to “set ablaze” any ship attempting to pass. Actuarial risk has become nearly impossible to model, leading some underwriters to decline terms entirely.Renegotiation at Higher Rates:
While standard coverage is being pulled, some insurers are open to renegotiating specific voyages at significantly higher premiums. War-risk premiums have already jumped to roughly 1% of a vessel’s hull value, up from about 0.2% just a week ago.As a result:
Approximately 150 vessels, including many oil and LNG tankers, have dropped anchor and are currently stranded or awaiting further instructions outside the strait.

I can barely contain my laughter when the U.S. Military describes the abandonment of territory (thus ceding that territory to their adversary who can then do anything with it that they choose) as “temporary evacuation”.
Yeah, I see their point. The abandonment could be temporary, I suppose, if the abandoneers every regained sufficient forces to take it back by force. But don’t hold your breath. If the US doesn’t have the force and strength to even keep the base in the first place (which is presumed to be the strongest force that they have in that area) then it’s extremely unlikely that they will be able to grow stronger fast enough to take it back by force.
It’s not like the bases weren’t warned and prepared to the max after years of preparation for this moment. When the moment arrived they discovered that they were not adequately prepared for what’s hitting them …. and so they are getting the hell out of there. It’s not “retreat”. It’s defeat. As in, “Well, the territory is obviously yours now, so see ya later I’m outta here.

Israeli ground incursion into Lebanon as front boils over amid wider war
Hezbollah says Israel wanted open war, ‘so let it be an open war’, adding that ‘the era of patience has ended.’The Israeli military has said its troops “are operating in southern Lebanon” in a new ground incursion as it continues strikes in what it described in a statement as a “forward defence” measure along the border, with another front igniting in the regional war prompted by United States-Israel attacks on Iran.
A Lebanese military source has told Al Jazeera on Tuesday that the army has pulled its troops back from the border area to ensure their safety amid an escalation in Israeli attacks.

23 second video: https://x.com/iranwarnroom/status/2028694702908953003Al Jazeera investigation: Iran girls’ school targeting likely ‘deliberate’
However, an analysis by Al Jazeera’s digital investigations unit of satellite imagery compiled over more than a decade, as well as recent video clips, published news reports and statements from official Iranian sources, tells a very different story…
To verify the scope and nature of the strike, Al Jazeera’s Digital Investigations Unit analysed two video clips posted on Telegram shortly after the bombing, and precisely geolocated each by matching visible landmarks with satellite imagery.
The first clip was filmed from a point southwest of the complex (at coordinates: 27°06’28.43″ N, 57°04’26.17″ E) and documents the first moments of smoke rising from inside the military block affiliated with the Sayyid al-Shuhada base (Asif Brigade), proving that the military base was indeed among the targets hit.
The second clip, however, the most indicative in this investigation, was filmed from a point southeast of the complex (at coordinates: 27°06’23.77″ N, 57°05’05.97″ E) and provides a wide viewing angle encompassing the entire complex.
This clip clearly shows two separate columns of thick black smoke rising simultaneously: The first from deep inside the military base, and the second from the geographically independent site of the girls’ school.
The visible distance between the two columns matches the distance separating the two areas as shown by the satellite imagery. This refutes any claim that the damage to the school was caused by shrapnel flying from the adjacent base, and strongly indicates that the school building was subjected to a direct, separate strike.
CONCLUSION
Either US and Israeli forces relied, in striking the vicinity of the Asif Brigade, on a very old, outdated intelligence target bank (dating to before 2013), which would constitute grave negligence and reckless disregard for civilian lives; or the strike was carried out deliberately and with prior knowledge to inflict maximum societal shock and undermine popular support for Iran’s military establishment.
