Reports are that the US is planning to use ground forces to invade Iran. An attack said by most reputable commentators as insanity, sighting the numbers available for deployment as well as the impossibility of logistics to sustain them, even if such an attack were possible.
Battle plans look to have been written by those pitching a Netflix drama, perhaps explaining Trump’s bravado as well as his ignorance, for the reality of geography as much as resistance is obviously factors they don’t consider problematic, but they do consider those being thrown into combat as ‘extras’ easily replaceable. According to Sean Ryan, those in uniform that he is in touch with are under no misapprehensions about whose war they are waging and it’s not for the US, they’ve made that crystal clear to him.
As always it can be difficult to look to where the powers that be are taking us, most especially as they are increasingly lawless and godless, nevertheless one thing that seems to me to be n the horizon for the US and what happens there follows in the rest of the West and it’s to do with conscription. The argument for which will no doubt be cloaked in spin but I look at the inevitability of the union of the Pentagon and the IDF, won’t the argument simply start to be if that if its conscription for one then it’s that for all? Will Trump or Netanyahu sacrifice their sons, as they expect others to do?

Admittedly this was very interesting!

I´d like to get our experts opinions on this too!

For the record, Saddam Hussein and Moammar Gaddafi were not taken out because they were evil. They were taken out because they wanted gold or currencies other than the U.S. dollar for their oil. That was something the U.S. government could not accept. A dollar collapse would be worse than the Great Depression of the 1930s. So Saddam and Gaddafi had to go. If Iran thinks they can survive what Saddam and Gaddafi could not...

Mouser In Chief is doing what 6 PM´s never could:

Literally WORKING :

Forget the new prime minister for a second (or for any matter at all). Someone else at Downing Street has returned to work faster than anyone expected.
Only hours after the newly and might I add, NON Elected PM Andy Burnham was confirmed as Britain’s new leader, Larry the Cat was already delivering results.
He was spotted outside the now almost infamous black door with a freshly caught mouse.
Larry has served as Chief Mouser to the Kingdom´s Office since 2011.
He arrived from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home to tackle the rodent problem that nobody else seemed able to handle.
Larry, one might say, is not only tackling the mice but also the rats as one prime minister after the other is being evicted from this noble title and house.

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
