Question for my followers: at what point is it safe to refer to this debacle as WW3? I think we're there.

Bibi's been talking Sampson Option as he stroked the one lunatic idiot who listens to the last person he spoke with. Trump's mind is soup. Bibi strokes his ego, Trump will sign off on nukes. If you think Whiskey Pete will stop it... It looks like we're at effing DEFCON 2 now.

🎶Whiskey Pete boy, what you goin' to do? As your world crashes down on you... Will you nuke Iran or hit the rye? Don't matter much 'cause you're going down in style.🎶

They're not operating in objective reality.

Trump telling Iranian football: if you come here, we can't guarantee your safety and you might die" does not scream "We're the bestest country in forever!" like you think it does.

Is Melania still chairing the UN Security Council? We're SO cooked.

WRT the West Coast Under Threat stupidity, while possible I call it highly unlikely. In deed, Trump would gain more than Iran. If I were Iran operating at range, I'd first shut down the Strait of Malacca with a couple drones to trash insurance rates.

When USA attempts to enforce this, they will fall into civil war 2.0.

My latest thoughts on the last 24 hours: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuoB...

The USA are freaking out that Iran is going to drone California. I kid you not. www.latimes.com/california/s... Reminds me of 1941...

🧵1/ The old Russian Proverb. “And then, things got worse…” Iran doesn’t need to win, they just don’t need to lose. USA/IDF absolutely require total victory or they know they are done like dinner.

In which other journalists I respect are starting to agree with me that this is a real and serious growing danger to the planet: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTxJ...

Hi Canada: a thought WRT the floor crossings - it seems that the electorate and general situation are creating a wartime coalition government all by themselves.

It is a complete debacle. Absolute horror-show failure of not just diplomacy, but basic competence. Debacle. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yps...

To whit: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXrc...

DO NOT FORGET THIS. This is what evil looks like. Pure unmitigated evil. I am beyond shock. Canada - if you do not think USA will do this to us, you need to smack your head REALLY fucking hard.

If USA is admitting 140 plus WIA, that means the figure of 8 KIA is bullshit. That's just basic math.

A final point before I try to distract myself from this debacle, as this doesn't make me a fun dinner companion... www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXrc...

USA and Israel are "F-U-C-K-E-D." www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQ6n...

When Joe says "this is bad", I worry. Russia oil exports are likely being lifted. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ms4O...

A Little Boy bomb is easy to build in a garage, and 5 high school seniors could do it better than me. All you need is the material formed into the core. If you have that, you fit it in a sewer-pipe with explosives at both ends and Bang. Iran having nukes is NOT what this is about.

Last I checked, oil’s well north of 120/bbl and spiking higher. That is well into “demand destruction” territory. How the economic stroke plays out is anyone’s guess. For now though, our global problem, and - speaking as a dude outside the mind-rotted USA -

Pissed off thoughts: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLGP...

Japan's opened their strategic oil reserve. That's because chip production in Korea/Taiwan is in danger of running out of fuel. When that happens, the industry crashes for several months at massive economic loss. We're looking at DEFCON 2 now.

When this fever breaks, and I'm proven to be a lunatic asshole, PLEASE feel free to mock me relentlessly. PLEASE. I'll take it on the chin, bleed, and smile. Because if my gut is correct, we're - all of us - massively fucked right now.

1/ USA was NOT ready for hybrid war. Pardon the sailor speak, but they walked into this woodchipper dick-first, thumb in bum, and brain in neutral. Global economy will have a massive stroke by Friday.

CENTCOM: 8 KIA as of this morning.

When they Winchester, we're in deep shit. Hence the incoming CARGRU. www.militarystrategymagazine.com/article/isra...

Same page. This is super-bad. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVva...

USA is now considering conscription to fight Iran. www.foxla.com/news/us-mili...

Trump to Iran as Iran in kicking their arse: "So are you ready to tap-out now?" Iran to USA: "no, because you'll just reach for a boot knife again. We're good."

I miss those halcyon days of yore back when the worst thing we worried about was USA invading Greenland and Canada...

War crimes. They’re poisoning those people. Millions of people

There are two choices ahead for Trump: escalation or retreat. Retreat means defeat and the survival of the Iranian regime. Escalation means an invasion of Iran with the full force of the US Army, National Guard and Marine Corps. steveschmidt.substack.com/p/trumps-two...

For my civilian friends, we try to avoid amphibious ops. There is no sane rational reason for USA to take Iranian islands. To do so is exponentially more dangerous than even now. Whiskey Pete needs his cool factor/toys and NO ONE in the chain is telling leadership, "This is a effing bad idea, sir."

USA is looking at invading Kark Island and perhaps Qeshm Island now that they've trashed the desalinization plants. Why? In the Land of Bad Things, this is Terrible Idea Mountain.

CENTCOM is losing it's shit as drones come in and they are down to M-4s to take them out. When you're at final defensive fire, you lost the fucking ball game.

Call me an optimist, but I didn't think it would get this bad this fast. We are looking at the worst case by end of the week. 7 days. Things are spiraling bad in a hurry .

What happens? Really? Iran and all states/businesses gamed this shit out back when I was a child. Hormuz close ALWAYS = choke off/stroke/myocardial infarction for global economy. IRAN is executing a plan the west is allowing them to inflict like running onto their sword. This is SO fucking STUPID!

There is now NOTHING in the USA now worth salvaging. They will have to be locked out of humanity for generations and do a total re-set. This is FUCKING (bad word to describe the bad reality) insane. Yeah you ARE the "Baddies" here!

Thoughts this morning on Canada nuking up: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ICb...

If this doens't terrify you, you do not understand America. This is what insane panic grabbing pure hopium looks like. They are FREAKING THE FUCK OUT. This is a sign USA is out of ideas. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ_B...
