Yeah, my spelling sux. Borders and sovereignty do t mean squat to Russia, NATO, US and Israel. Probably a bunch of others too.

Long overdue and good work by Israel.
Here's hoping they get this job done right.

“Without US economic cross-over this small nation could not exist.”

Yes, that is probably true but I think that we need to prop-up Israel because they are the only free-state in the Mideast. We need them to stay that way, just as we did after WWII for Japan and, at the time, West Germany.

Will Israel flatten Kharg?

Biggest most important sitting duck in the region.

Wait, they had a General Salami...

He was commander in chief of Iran's Revolutionary Guard, kind of a big deal.

We need to support them because of God's blessing for it and it's the right thing to do.

GBU-43/B MOABs away!

Then, Bomb...Bomb...Bomb... Some more...

Does anyone doubt that Iran would use nukes on Israel if they had them? A nuclear Iran is an existential threat for them.

“Darned Jimmy Carter.

He could have clipped this all in the Bud if he would have had the CIA take out Khomenei.”

I disagree. While the hostages were still in Iran I told a co-worker that the only solution was to forsake the hostages lives and level Iran completely. The only thing that Muslims understand is overwhelming power and a lot of it, decisively. If that had happened then the whole Middle East would have calmed down their overblown confidence. No Kuwait war followed by no Iraq war, no Libyan Ghadafi, no Houthies nor the rest of the animals.

However, I blame all of this on Genghis Khan. He had the opportunity to wipe out all Muslims. He let the women and children live. Those same women and children bred more evil.

Agreed. Another, of many, fails by Carter.

Iran can and will mine the straights of Hormuz. First super tanker fully loaded will cause an economic disaster of unspeakable dimensions.

Iran can’t mine crap if they are sitting on the bottom of the gulf. They don’t really want to screw up too bad. They already have a lion by the tail. Best to not get a complete zot. Or there wont be any “I” in BRICS.

>> I drove straight to the gas station and filled up.

I bought 100 gallons of diesel today for my storage tank.

$2.93/gal or something like that.

Coincidence, not foreknowledge, but boy am I glad I did.
