I suspect Iran is going to target U.S. bases in the area. They have missiles that can easily hit anything within a 1000 mile radius.
I have seen reports they have struck Israel, Bahrain, Dubai, and Saudi Arabia. Friends at dinner tonight said they had heard Jordan as well. What I saw hit in Bahrain was a high-rise, apparently a hotel. All of those places are either military allies or have US military installations.
Mehdi Hasan on Iran: âEvery Republican president does this. Comes to office, cuts benefits for the poor, cuts taxes for the rich, raises prices, then bombs a Middle East country. He ran as the anti-war candidate. No more forever wars, no more regime change. It was all a lieâ

Based on their drooling for their Armageddon, you can bet some of them would actually welcome the deployment of nukes.
I absolutely am certain of that. As far back as about 1964 or so I recall interpretations of prophecies in Zechariah that reveled in jet aircraft delivering nuclear weapons as being the explanation for passages that mention people eyes rotting out of their sockets, etc.
Hereâs the relevant passage:
âTheir flesh will rot while they are still standing on their feet, their eyes will rot in their sockets, and their tongues will rot in their mouthsâ.
âwhile they are standing on their feetâ is what they seized upon â while I think Zechariah would have simply suggested it was Yahweh doing âmagicâ, itâs too attractive to attribute it to nukes.
Basically anything that brings on the End of Days is something they are okay with, especially if they are pre-tribulationists and so believe they will not have to endure any portion of the Tribulation.
More like âfor controlling the flow of petroleum and starting wars that will cause fundamentalist groups to recruit people to throw into long quagmire wars that will spend lots of blood and treasure.â
So, thatâs fixed for those âcombat-unit commanders.â
If anyone thought the military would somehow oppose Trump if he ordered them to impose martial law on the country and fire on citizens, this should disabuse them of that notion.
Yeah and see my new thread in the Debates section â per new reports today we now we have at least some commanding officers hectoring troops that they are destined to bring on Armageddon and the End of Days.
As if Iran wasnât enough, the Cheeto is now conducting military operations in Ecuador.
At least this time they seem to be cooperating with the Equadorians to strike against the drug cartels and producers;
U.S. Special Forces soldiers are advising and supporting Ecuadorian commandos on raids across the country against suspected drug shipment facilities and other drug-related sites, according to a U.S. official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss operational matters.
The Americans are not believed to be participating in the actual raids, but are helping the Ecuadorian troops plan their operations, and are providing intelligence and logistics support, the official said.
So less dramatic than the other shit thatâs going on â at least on the surface.
Isnât that how Vietnam started? With the US being an advisor? That ended well!! (/sarcasm)
