Americans know that. Which is why they timed this invasion as such.
Personally i think we are in the stages of empire building, he has Venezuela, talking about certain other points in south american countries, and after Iran (which if they get their way , will be part of the greater Israel expansion)…they will turn to Cuba as has been mentioned , and once that is done , expect them once more to turn to Canada and Greenland.
Guys, maybe it’s a technical detail to some of you, but this isn’t an invasion. If it had been an invasion then this would look incredibly different.
The problem the US has, is that it thought it could reach its War Goals without an invasion. Which is of course much harder to do without invading.
Invasion= infantry, artillery and tanks and controlling and/or taking land (and much more destruction and bloodshed) . There is none of it. This is a mere air campaign.
Sadly I partly agree but i think it is emotional and not planned imperial expansion.
But Latin America and Greenland, they want this hard controlled im their sphere of interests (which is probably a better word, since US wants primarily subservience, not expansion apart from the Greenland case).
Like this?
I dont know that there is an end game for the US. They may have spoken about things that might be the outcomes from what they are doing, or justifications for doing it that somewhat approximate objectives, but I really think this is violence for the sake of violence. There has always been a strain of thinking the US that we retain our position through fear and every once in a while we have to pick on someone to remind the world of our military might. When that strain bumps into a leadership class who are proper sickos with more bloodlust than brains, using their toys and shouting “USA is back!” becomes the primary objective. Trump just likes dropping bombs on people and he showed that in his first go around. Now we’re doing this everything that comes after comes after. And if we dont like we get to use more bombs to address that situation down the line
For Israel we know their perspective on what they call mowing the grass. They only ever cut it down to a level they think will be accepted by the US and have now found a partner that is willing to let them go lower than ever before and so Israel is just YOLOing.
It is indeed truth.
Later.
Doing backlog on the far more important war.
These two combined would put the newly-elected government under pressure from the fanatics.
I agree.
Iran doesn’t have the cutting-edge technology, or the shrewd brains to inflict considerable damage on Israel. On the other hand, even without doing much, they are making the Gulf Kingdoms, and rest of Asia sweat by disrupting the oil supply.
Just posting some very low effort stuff. Planning to respond to Limie (might be tomorrow, as I am very tired and want to watch footie) later.
That Oman is targeted is very interesting, as they thought the IRGC would not target them again. Alas, in the interest of the IRGC to target all.
They are Norwegian citizens, I note, because that is unclear from the Faytuks headline.
Or boat

Q: A new report says that a military investigation has found that the US struck the school in Iran. As commander in chief, do you take responsibility?
TRUMP: For what?
