2017

The Year America Was Made Great Again.

Our role in the world is being changed back to one of self empowerment and enrichment.

We have had The Inauguration of President Trump and everything he has accomplished in less than a year's time.

But our enemies are not idling, they are trying to role back the choices of the citizens of the Republic daily.

That only means we need to fight back against them daily.

Salute to the American Dream.

We can rule our own Republic.

Are you ready for it?

Spooling down while all figure out the extent of the attack and any russian/iranian/syrian counter attacks.

[Godzilla]

Ok, not spooling down. Two separate sources reporting Hezbollah special forces have been ordered to mobilize in Southern Lebanon in anticipation of escalation with Israel.

[Bob Ireland]

Gosh, she doesn’t appear very threatening... well, maybe a little bit to an old guy like me.

My guess is we are being played in Syria. Seems Isis(CIA) may still be a player in Syria first three minutes of this video from a gal who has been there six times suggests that any involvement in Syria is a no win situation.
NO telling what the entire scenario is there its so convoluted.

Webb and Bartlett seem to have the history and know what is actually going on there, its complex and dates back to benghazi but its all been put together.
I don’t think there is a “win” in sight in the mid-east.

Who knew Haiti was all about oil!Ten days after the Haitian “earthquake”(was it really a nuke designed to discover oil) more oil was discovered in Haiti(Webb working theory) than exists in Venezuela.
Just too good.

[rodguy911]

The links in this video are endless,mind boggling, truly.

Post Strike Assessment

BLUF - Targeted facilities blowed up real good. Rhetoric to continues. I expect the news wires to have an abundance of claims on the success/failure of the raid.

Russian military claims 71 out of 103 missiles intercepted. Most seem to believe this is out there for propaganda. Observers report a lot of russian/syrian air cover over western syria - better late than never.

video shows the rubble of the “Scientific Research Center” in Damascus.

Iran threatening follow on actions on a regional level. Area to watch is the Gulf and playing chicken with US ships as well as increased Houti attacks on saudi arabia.

UNSC meeting today - expect more rants but little more.

Israel has declared the golan heights area a ‘no fly zone’.

Interesting final points. Last night was the first use by France of its sea-launched cruse missiles as well as the US’s first use of the new air launched missiles from the B1

Final post attack observations

BLUF - they got blowed up real gud

As the pundits and politicians bloviated over the weekend, it is pretty clear that -

1. AA fire over Syria was ineffective
2. The facility in Damascus (targeted since Bush 2) was completely obliterated to the extent that none of the surrounding buildings sustained significant damage other than probably blown out windows - remarkable post attack photos on the webs.
3. Russian is assessing its vulnerabilities and tactics in the face of this attack. Also in major face saving mode since they boasted so much about countering any attack and counter strikes.
4. iran, though still hot against Israel, appears to be tempering its rhetoric too.

In answer to many as to WHY Assad would gas Syrians when his forces were on the verge of defeating them conventionally one must not view it from the WESTERN MINDSET. For us in the Judeo-Christian west, such actions are largely unthinkable. But from an Islamic, middle eastern mind set it is to be expected. Not only do dictators want to defeat their opposition, but crush and terrorize them into not even dreaming about uprising again and such actions would further serve as a deterrent to other opposition groups.

Much confusion in Saudi Arabia. Seems there is a potential coup attempt underway. Remember - first reports tend to be in error, but there is something big trying to go down there

[Godzilla]

Pretty confident reports that the saudi king has been evacuated to a secure facility at military (air) base.

[Godzilla]

Monitoring last night’s attack on Iranian assets at the Homs airbase in Syria. Most likely Israeli led, videos show humongous explosions Given the heated rhetoric between Israel and Iran this could become more kinetic in regards to an Iranian response.

[Godzilla]

Multiple reports that the Iranian govt reps are saying the nuclear deal is no longer satisfactory to iran no matter what the US does. Waiting for the 8 PM statement from Israel expected to present evidence of Iran violations of the existing agreement and possibly justification of last night’s attack.

[Godzilla]

Antenna up and monitoring chatter

increasing discussion that Iran will launch a missile attack from Syria on Israel in retaliation for the recent strikes on Iranian facilities in Syria.

there is a very narrow window given that the US is supposed to open its new embassy in Jerusalem on the 17th. If Iran is stupid enough to try this things could go very kinetic very quickly.
