BS wars are rumbling on (Ukraine and Iran). I'm no fan of them at all.

Before Iran action crude was trading at $73 a barrel.

Vaporize Tehran. Get it over with. Islam knows only one thing. Conquest.

Conquer Islam or be conquered by it.

The Manchester Guardian reports only bad news when conservatives are in power and only good news when leftist fascists are in power ... period ... that is, assuming any “news” they report is not just fabricated in the first place ...

Until the mullah regime is destroyed and replaced by decent, rational people, this nonsense will continue. If it does the demonic Democrats will ride the political backlash to power in 26 and 28. Trump has less than 2 months to set things right and it will require hard ground fighting. Most conservatives were rightly aghast when he started this war. However now that he has, he must finish it or he is finished. Too bad American leaders don’t listen to George Washington’s great fatherly advice to avoid foreign entanglements.One of Washington’s greatest accomplishments was keeping the young american nation from becoming involved in the European wars spawned by the French revolution.

Iran must be wiped off the map. By any means. At this point, whatever it takes to get oil prices down. If this continues much longer, we’re cooked at midterms and our country will be handed back over to the libtards.

Who cares what you are a fan of when it comes to our president, you are a foreigner who doesn’t even live here and you have nothing to do with us.

Iran is running out of space for their oil and their neighbors are too. They have got to be getting heat from everywhere.

“On 4 February 2026, RTX announced an agreement with the US Department of Defense to increase Tomahawk production to over 1,000 units per year with a 7-year production agreement”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomahawk_missile

“The Tomahawk Block V carries an official FY2026 unit cost of $2.5 million, though contract prices range from $1.75 million to $4.1 million depending on variant and order size.”

https://govfacts.org/policy-security/military/defense-procurement-contractors/a-tomahawk-costs-2-million-heres-who-gets-paid-to-replace-it/

Each day of chatting with Iranian deceivers costs the taxpayers as much as 200 Tomahawks.

Those 200 Tomahawks could hit 31 Iranian refineries about six times in one day.

Nice ship you have there, Commander Israeli. Would you like to scalp Iran’s oil refineries?

Oil prices are transient, but the bond market should scare the bejeesus out of people.

30 yr now at levels not seen since 2007. 10 yr rising steadily.

I am no doomer, but we’re on path for a disaster. For the sake of the midterms, I hope it holds off until 2027 but I don’t think it’s going to.
