Loose lips...?

Maybe that’s for the Iranians to read.

I would think there is a detailed battle plan and strategy for all anti-American countries from our forces.

That’s why they say “four ships joined the carrier group” and so on. Not made up as they go along, already plans for contingencies.

“I have provided the secretary of defense and the president a wide range of options,” Central Command head Gen. Jack D. Ripper says during testimony before the House Armed Services Committee.

[Jim Noble]

Dream on.

Fake news.

[Gen.Blather]

Governments have senor people say things to inform potential adversaries. The more dramatic the message the further the speaker is from the seat of power. China will have a retired general give a speech or write an article detailing their plans to decapitate the US with a surgical atomic strike. Something like this which was released as the US and Iran are conducting talks is probably aimed at making them take the offer on the table more seriously.

The fact that Trump has been presented with a detailed plan containing several options should be a surprise to no one.

At the least, it should serve as a stark reminder to Iran that this administration is very different from the Obama - Biden administrations.

Try looking closer to home like at Mexico we got bigger problems there

[Carry_Okie]

And surely there will be a Congressional Declaration of War.

Right?

I doubt seriously he could get one.

[CatOwner]

War my media.

[one guy in new jersey]

Trump communicates important information directly, or not at all.

[bigbob]

Tell Trump, then zip lip, you idiot.

[Jim W N]

Why is such confidential national security information, if true, being published?

If true, some heads should roll.

[mass55th]

Is he still the top Commander in the Middle East?

[Vermont Lt]

There are always plans being made. You do not task the moving parts in an attack like that in an hour. So, the planning is constant.

And I am sure there are A, B, C, and D versions.

We still have plans to attack Canada. Updated annually from 1816 on.

[Carl Vehse]

I suspect expect the U.S. military has updated plans on the shelf for attacking many other countries in the world (some of which might even be considered today as allies).

[montag813]

Trump told him to say this, as a threat to the Mullahs, who are playing hardball.

[Organic Panic]

The pentagon has plans to invade every square inch on earth in a file. This is just out there for the mullahs to mull over....

[xone]

Of course he did, theater combat planning.

[Clutch Martin]

There are thousands of planning and readiness staffs all over the country.
I wonder if the generalismo has ever seen the inside of those offices?
