Of course this is Israel’s war in Iran. It’s America’s, too. We’d all better win it Trump's critics, ostensibly from his own camp, evidently have a very dim view of his intellect and skill set * In Iran, unlike Gaza, 'total victory' need not be an empty slogan, provided there's prope...

"The IDF is privately indicating that it and the US forces need at least two more weeks to create conditions in which Iranians might be able to rise up.

It hopes, officials have indicated, that diplomacy will not intervene prematurely."

Right now at the Strait of Hormuz, Iran. Looks like no one is taking Trump's offer of 'escorted safe passage' seriously. Ships at anchor on both sides, waiting for hostilities to cease.

Iran says it targeted US oil tanker amid Israeli attacks on Tehran US and Israel bombard Iran as Israeli forces hammer Lebanon and the widening conflict causes energy prices to spike.

NATO chief Mark Rutte said that it was difficult to assess how the situation in Iran would end, but his sense was that US knew what it was doing.

Scarier if they DID 'prepare'.

Perhaps Mark Carney knows what the plan is.

Bad faith actors everywhere, from Russia to China to the United States. Do they dominate the UN Security Council yet?

And there's no actual planned objective. Just hopes that Iranian civilians will 'rise up' against the regime.

This has strong Baghdad vibes. Aside from trying to neutralize leadership, it seems there is no plan at all.

Russia's strange and predictable backwards logic; this time round they have a complying audience in Trump's USA.

Russia's Quest to Intensify The Theater-Wide Battlefield Air Interdiction Campaign Against Ukraine's Logistics Russian forces are attempting to destroy operationally-significant targets farther in Ukraine's rear in order to weaken frontline defenses.

"Ukraine and its partners must urgently invest in kinetic air defense systems and additional electronic warfare (EW) systems to protect Ukrainian logistics across the entire theater, and also...enable Ukraine to achieve its own BAI effects at scale."

Ukraine is the biggest and most consequential of all the American betrayals | Simon Tisdall As the war enters its fifth year, it’s time for Europe to take the fight to Putin on its own terms and tell Trump to get lost, says Guardian foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdall

"...for the sake of Ukraine’s exhausted, undefeated people and their own future peace and security, Europeans (including Britain) must finally find the unity, courage and wherewithal to take the military, economic, diplomatic and moral offensive."

The Australian Government is flip flopping on the issue; hoping they can get away with simply not responding to the rsvp & avoid negative attention. Albanese needs to grow a spine.
