Cool quick story- I remember visiting the C-17 plant in Long Beach circa 2014 and there was a lady there whom had been an original Rosie the Riveter still building aircraft at 103.

Iranians are the masters of bad negotiating....delay delay delay then lie. Trump has a blind spot with the art of the deal and does not understand how good they are at this game. Beyond the lunatics in the IRGC if you want to understand some of the motivations of the Iranian people I highly recommend this book the "Persian Puzzle"...it was very eye opening. A group of people that have been conquered as a way of life.

First, you are thinking like a rational actor which Putin is not. Second, Russian has almost completely transitioned to a wartime economy with full 8% of GDP being spent on the the military. Even with the enormous loss of equipment their military production transitioned to a surplus last September and they are accelerating. Third, People are another issue, but that has never stopped Russia and the lunatic in charge will continue on that path.

With the enormous loss of people and hardware in the current entanglement with Ukraine, how is Russia going to pull off going further afield attacking several more countries (with a couple nuke holders in the mix) in the next 4 years?

@ClearedHot Do you think the letter released above was a wag the dog tactic in reference to the Belfast attack and proximity to the Henry Nowak murder? It’s interesting reading the letter, the British establishment is still in denial about where they are now and the direction of travel of their country. It’s not good, ours is better than theirs still challenging with our own problems ahead but different. It’s important for them to be a credible and capable NATO partner but power and power in excess to be able to project it for whatever reason comes from security, stability and prosperity at home. Personally, I think they should take the prediction and analysis of Prof David Betz very seriously. https://www.militarystrategymagazine.com/article/civil-war-comes-to-the-west-part-ii-strategic-realities/

Way to go there, Mr Step On Your Own Dick (oh wait, it was bitten off by a minor trafficked by your buddy Epstein) by telling the world/enemy what you're going to do. Tards. Why is our government full of full blown tards. I have never seen an admin full of so many tards. Did someone raid the worlds biggest tart-fest? Sure, look back in history and you'll find a tard or so in every admin. But this one is chock full of tards. If Kharg was a goal, why not plan, prep, take in secret. A way better headline would have been, "Yesterday the US Military took full control or Kharg Island." And everyone would be, wha...? Wow... And Iran would be like, wha..? Wow... We're fucked...

I have considered that like ALWAYS you are the contrarian to almost anything I or anyone conservative posts. For the record, I have several VERY close Brit friends that I served with for many years. Both have been discussing and sharing with me for months. The major point to be made is the intel apparatus in Europe believes Russia may attack and all you can do is twist it into yet another passive aggressive personal attack about my rationale.
