The democRATs are constantly talking about impeachment so Republicans will need to hold the House in the midterms or President Trump will be tied up for the second half of his term. Expect Chines special tricks in the midterms too.

I’ve heard this “unpredictability” referred to as “Strategic Abiguity”. If Trump never takes bold actions then threats are just idle chatter. His opponents must know that he is not afraid to act.

.....Iran is Russia’s southern flank and the gateway to the Caspian Sea oil and natural gas reserves. Iran is also China’s Western flank who built the Silk Road overland logistical supply route to Iran to access the Caspian Sea and Persian Gulf oil and natural gas reserves without going through the Strait of Hormuz or the Strait of Malacca. China does not like Israel bombing their investment and making China vulnerable to being cut off from energy supplies. The Israeli bombing of Iran is an existential threat to China. It is a precursor move to cut them off of energy at the maritime chokepoints by bombing their land based structure and infrastructure.
Either way everyone was caught by surprise. Including yours truly. And that’s a good thing.
Interesting take on our President's action, by Mr Greenfield.

Even beset with a multitude of problems, Trump 1.0 projected unpredictable strength and America First for four years AND IT WORKED.
Trump 2.0 is Trump 1.0 with experience, a better team, and plugged leaks.
Bkmk
“His opponents must know that he is not afraid to act”
THAT was the entire point of yesterday’s fun.
A little telegram to Moscow and Beijing.
Japan attacked Pearl Harbor because we had cut off their oil. They saw that as an attack on their lifeline. Methinks we’d best be careful about hitting Kharg Island.
i know McMillan is a big believer in Mackinders theory that the control of Eastern Europe was vital to control of the world.
Methinks we’d best be careful about hitting Kharg Island.
I expect they’re wondering what three MOPs would do to the Three Gorges Dam...
Yes!
the missiles hitting Israel are from the three Chinese cargo planes
tracked last week .
I suspect Chinese is building the bomb in Iran and helping them hide
the remaining bomb materials .
China will get them the bomb .
When we cause a war in Ukraine, all the media was lockstep, spewing their pro-war garbage 24/7.
All you heard about was how this war in Ukraine was a great idea because if we don't stop Russia now they will conquer the world, how Ukraine can do whatever they want because they are sovereign, how the Russians are evil and Putin is a madman, how we didn't lie about promises made of NATO East expansion, and Ukraine is the victim of Russian aggression, in an unprovoked war.
Regards Ukraine under Biden, all we got 24/7 was a pro-war narrative for a war where you CANNOT explain to the average American how this war made them more free, safe or wealthy.
In this war in Ukraine, all we heard was victory speeches, 24/7 even as Ukraine was (((LOOSING))) in every aspect except imaginary casualty reports where we can just make up whatever we want.
Now under Trump you have a limited military intervention in scope and time, with a clear objective where you CAN define a national security threat to us and our allies, and the media is questioning the motives, negatively speculating over the consequences and operations effectiveness, considering the morality of war, and how it makes us look in other peoples eyes.
As of yesterday, the chances of China invading or attacking Taiwan just went way down.
Trump fooled me. I thought he might pull a Tucker and not do anything. As he/Trump held useless negotiations with Ayatollahs.
So our mega-hit on Fordow etc. surprised me. This moves up the schedule for a more peaceful middle east. You know the Saudis and other Sunni Muslim oil producers are loving this rebuke to the crazy Shiite Twelver Ayatollahs.
LOL
