    You can repeat your Qatarian drivel all day long. It doesn’t make you right and it doesn’t change reality.

    You know me, always saying nice things and unwilling to be critical about our own country and others lol. I look forward to the Palestinians having a state to even be critical of, but until then ...

    Iranian tankers scurrying away from their main oil terminal. Were they forewarned toa void or minimize environmental damage?? or just Israel playing with them?

    Satellite imagery shows Iranian oil tankers at country’s major terminal disappearing amid fears of Israeli counterattack (msn.com)
    Satellite imagery revealed a number of oil tankers vacating the waters around Iran's key Kharg Island oil loading terminal, amid fears of an Israeli counterattack on Tehran's energy infrastructure.

    "The National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) appears to be fearing an imminent attack by Israel. Their empty VLCC supertankers vacated the country's largest oil terminal, Kharg Island, yesterday," tracking firm TankerTrackers.com wrote in a post on the X social media platform on Thursday evening.

    US finally starting to be a little proactive instead of reactive

    US warships and planes strike Houthi targets in Yemen (msn.com)

    The US military says it has launched strikes on the Iranian-backed Houthi group in Yemen, striking 15 targets.

    The Pentagon said it used aircrafts and warships to launch the attacks in order "to protect freedom of navigation".

    Several explosions were reported in some of Yemen’s main cities, including the capital Sanaa.

    Seriously.

    I think Biden means well. But he should have kept his mouth shut in front of the cameras.

    He just declared hitting the nuclear facilities is off limits, after 200 missles are launched from Iran and Khemenei is declaring the end of Israel is near.

    They and everyone will know hitting them is off the table, permanently.

    I am not saying anyone needs to hit them in this tit-for-tat, or even at all if the cards are played right. But by publicly declaring the nuclear facilities are off limits, we have eliminated any chance of nuclear restraint from Iran in the future.

    Trump is saying we should bomb Iran’s nuke facilities.

    LOL at people who believe we have two parties.
