I think I understand Trumps game now, especially how the timing was perfect with markets about to have a credit meltdown.
This is all about preventing a dollar collapse, or at least buying some time to reshore US manufacturing so that when the inevitable default and switch to government crypto arrives we will still have stuff to trade with the rest of the world. He also has to address the legions of CCP traitors and saboteurs that are embedded throughout the nation. If we trigger an uprising in China by blocking their oil supplies then they will be too busy protecting their own necks to mess with us.
The enemy gets a say however, and I suspect the biolabs that weren’t found yet will be activated soon. Its World War 3, everywhere is the battlefield and nothing is what it seems. Iran attacking tourist spots is any indication there’s a decent chance Honolulu could catch at least a dirty bomb if not a full on nuke.
This ain’t your daddy’s sportsball regime change where we get to sit back and pretend everything is normal. Welcome to the front lines gentlemen.

So I guess you heard - they got that Persian demon.
“The TV announcer said that Khamenei’s “long dream of martyrdom became true” — and noted that he died during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.”
We had to wait something like 50 years to get a President with balls.

This just in:
“Judge Boasberg orders the Trump Administration to reassemble and reanimate the Ayatollah to attend a hearing date on March 3, at which time the Judge will determine if he is in fact a dictator and hostile enemy combatant, such that his obliteration did not violate his rights under the U.S. Constitution. Lawyers for the Department of Justice say they will appeal.”

Rees added that protestors stand with the people of Iran, but are saying no to war in the country.
“Bombs are not liberation. (Trump) made it very clear he wanted to go ahead and wage war and drop bombs on people,” she said. “I think the Iranian people should be the ones to decide what happens with their country and their government.” :rofl: :rofl:
oh the hypocrisy and naivete of our US protestors...
https://theconversation.com/ayatollah-ali-khamenei-ruled-iran-with-defiance-and-brutality-for-36-years-for-many-iranians-he-will-not-be-revered-259268
In more than three decades as supreme leader, Khamenei amassed unprecedented power over domestic politics and cracked down ever more harshly on internal dissent. In recent years, he prioritised his survival – and that of his regime – above all else. His government brutally put down a popular uprising in December 2025–January 2026 that killed thousands.

You can tell you’re not evil when their love of evil is utterly incomprehensible to you.
They should not occupy the current dimension we’re in.

Like Bill O'Reilly said, they just hate Trump. No other reasoning. Nothing.
"They support the people of Iran but don't support the bombing from Trump". How stupid.
The civilian protestors were being killed by the hundreds. What are the world countries supposed to do? Tell that khamenei to stop it? And you know the whole world was looking over their shoulder to see when the US will do something. Expected, as all coward countries do. Even when these same coward countries are quick to criticize the US.
Even as we speak Iran's current political infrastructure is scrambling to keep the current regime in place, even though a lot of key leaders including that old man, has been killed.
The democrats, the college protestors, and hawaii's congressional members make me sick.
-
the mentality of these protestors is simply this:
Reason don't fight.
If someone is mugging, raping or in the midst of killing you - reason.
If you see someone getting killed - reason with the killer, hopefully before the victim is killed.
If someone didn't ask for help while getting killed don't raise the violence level by intervening.

Yes, evil is good and must not be interfered with.
In their inverse universe, this principle is right up there with infanticide.

I'm holding my tongue because we are committed and the price of getting this wrong is economic collapse.
That said I think both the left and right are full of idiots who, instead of thinking for themselves, read off scripts of pre-approved thoughts written for them by demon worshipping pedophiles.
Everyone just lines up on cue for the next meaningless food fight.

Journey to Hawaiʻi
Nejad, her mother and brother came to Hawaiʻi because her brother was almost 18 years old, and in Iran every 18-year-old male is required to serve in the military for two years. She and her brother were able to get visas because her mother is a U.S. born citizen. Nejad’s intention was not to stay in America, rather she wanted to go back to Iran and attend a medical school. She brought her books with her to Hawaiʻi to keep studying for the medical school entrance exam, and wanted to go back to Iran as soon as she received her green card, which took about a month.
However, after arriving in the U.S. she contemplated whether to stay or return home. Staying in the U.S. at the time meant starting over in academics. Nejad was not able to transfer any advanced placement courses, and she was not familiar with the language or the process to even attend a university here. On the other hand, she could leave and return to Iran where she was almost ready to attend medical school. However, that meant Nejad would give up on the freedom that she experienced in the short time she was in the U.S.
“In the end I decided that having freedom and liberty as a woman was worth sacrificing my academic progress in Iran and starting over here in the U.S.,” Nejad said.
After almost two years of working full time in a corporate office and learning English, she decided to go back to school and attended Honolulu CC for about three years, and was able to complete an associate’s degree in liberal arts with focus on natural science. Nejad then enrolled at UH Mānoa in spring 2022. Aside from pursuing a degree in biology, she is a member of the Pre-Medical Association, Medical Student Mentorship Program, Health Occupations Students of America and CORPS Hawaii. Nejad is also a learning assistant in the School of Life Sciences under Professor Megan Porter.

No drinks for now. I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Hopefully Beijing is too flustered to respond effectively and the Chinese people are inspired by the Iranian uprising.

My thoughts.
Iran is messing up by attacking other countries/areas like Saudi, UAE, Qatar, etc...and recently a Malaysian oil tanker (?). Even if it's US bases or what ever in host areas, any ordinance that misses kills/harms that countries civllians and/or civilians who work/visiting on said bases. Thus pissing everyone off.
What they should have done is take the hits and play the sympathy game with help from our democrats/liberals. Iran doesn't have the numbers to defeat the US or any US backed country. Attacks on their soil will eventually reduce their own output for weaponry. Think when Hitler waged a 2 front war when he attacked Russia. Then when the allies began boming their factories.
I have a friend whos from Iran and came to the US about 15 years ago to escape the oppression. Her parents told her what Iran was like before Islam took over and how they were more free, esp women. So she's for this attack and getting rid of the current leadership so Iran goes back to how it was in the late 70's.
And apparently the HI missile alert button pusher got a job in Kuwait as they shot down 1 of our F15, friendly fire. Doh!

3 F15Es got shot down
all 6 crewmembers ejected safely...

It’s a country half the size of Europe with 100 million people and here stockpile of missiles. We are already running out of ammo from multiple other confrontations. Nobody ever overthrew a regime with a bombing campaign, and the last time we tried boots on the ground it took 20 years and was unsuccessful.
Kids born today could be fighting in this war.

All true.
Let us pray that somehow, this time is different.

That's why I wonder how far logistics were factored in this action.
I heard on the news that ammo availability might be an issue and my first impression was how can this scenario not be addressed before deciding to cross over the point of no return?
My first reaction was MSM mis-information BS.
And I hope it is.
As far as boots on the ground, use Tier 1 and 2 SF units. Have the Green Berets as boots on the ground. They are supposed to be experts in guerilla warfare, changing regimes, training the insurgents, etc.
I could be wrong but these forces fall under a category different from conventional forces. Maybe putting these guys in action doesn't require the pukes in Congress to dilly-dally and take 30 years to make a decision.
Everytime I think of Congress and their track record lately, I get nauseated on both ends and need to go to the bathroom.

What's interesting is that the fake news isn't doing much fake news stuff as usual. But instead independant social media pages that have thousands of followers are. Then liberals are reposting them.
Example:
Statement about how there aren't only 3 US deaths when the bombing began, but instead 500+.
A vid of Trump not smiling while walking, so the caption is that he knows he messed up by going to war with Iran.
US aircraft carrier sunk.
The cost of thousands of Iranian drones is $200K, and 44 Patriot Missiles $44,000,000, so the US is losing.
What I find interesting is that people with TDS hate him so bad that they're willing to promote propoganda for another country. Irans cyber support department is alive and well and have been trained how to get the US people to turn on their own leadership even more to stop the bombings.

I have my opinions and I acknowledge opinions can be wrong.
I support our POTUS and yes, I voted for him. That doesn't mean I'll agree and accept everything he does.
I've been watching, reading and perusing over the thousands of news feeds that pop up almost every minute these past days about the strike on Iran by the US and Israel.
Most of them were approving of that is happening and some of them take the wait and see approach.
Today there are some feeds that claim the US has overdrawn their hand. They paint a more gloomier and scarier scenario.
This is one of them.

Acceptable exit strategies.
We got Bin Laden, time to leave A-stan.
We got Saddam, time to leave Iraq.
The US did neither.

We got Maduro, no need invade.

Imagine if Barry didn't give them billions.
Imagine if Brandon didn't release their billions.
Would we be where we're at today?
On a tinfoil hat note, what if Maduro's capture was a plan to secure more oil. THis had to be done before any strike on Iran. And as it seems, Iran is only allowing China to use the strate.
What if this strike on Iran is to cripple China later? There is no need to strike China at all due to their tofu dreg. Their buildings will collapse on their own.

Trump is a business man. He knows how to leverage bankruptcy and hostile takeovers.

Trump is a business man.
And a pretty savvy one too. You need to be shrewd to do business. And I think this is why President Trump comes off many times as insensitive, inconsiderate, and callous in his remarks.
I think it's the business side of him. There are no sugar-coating of words when doing business deals.
And I think this side of him is what spurs videos like this:

It's actually pretty clever. They demonstrated to everyone in the region what they are capable of and that their forces are designed to continue fighting in the absence of central command.
Then it's "oops, sorry guys" but everyone still got the message
Just a reminder that these are Persians, not Arabs, and they've had decades to dig in and prepare.

I guess that whole Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) never happened?
Iran under one name or another has been at war with other nations ever since 2600 BC.

I did the best I could on researching the US's next plan on trying to get Iran to "unconditionally surrender".
It seems like the US will try to be the first to bringing a nation to its knees by bombing the shit out of them by destroying the military infrastructure and using economic strangulation.
In other words, the US will burn Iran to the ground, sorry civilians, if you are in the way tough shit.
The IRGC and other regime organizations have already moved their operations into hospitals, schools, residential areas, and business districts.
Hegseth already said to attain victory, the US will not observe politically correct rules of engagements.
It is an extreme gamble. They are hoping for a lay down of arms after they realize it is futile. That is the preferred result of this air campaign.
The other very real possibility is the civilian losses caught up in these human shield scenarios will be so great the population will revert to the "rally around the flag" nationalistic mindset and boom, another anti-US Iran is born out of the smoke and ashes.
Think about it. Right now Iran's military might is around 1 million armed people in various organizations.
They may lay down their arms but who knows what lays in the hearts of men. Hint. Hint. Iran has lied before. :rofl:

Do you think posting a follow-up sentence means you can leave the original false statement unedited and pretend it's true?
"Mosaic" has a few meanings, so if you don't offer any context or definitions, how would anyone reading your opinions interpret it the way you intended?
No matter what you meant, it doesn't change the first sentence -- the one I commented on -- in the slightest.
Mosaic politics refers to a political framework that emphasizes the
coexistence of diverse ethnic, cultural, and linguistic groups within
a society, encouraging each group to maintain its unique identity
while participating in the broader political landscape. This concept is
often contrasted with assimilationist approaches, such as the "melting
pot," and is particularly associated with multicultural policies.

https://open.substack.com/pub/datarepublican/p/data-analysis-of-the-state-of-the
I don’t agree with many of the conclusions but it lays out some good points, including the fact that a ground war is out of the question
Something else worth mentioning:
Oil companies were hesitant to invest in Venezuela, but now they kinda have to. If the Middle East takes years to fully come back on line all that demand has to go somewhere. We might have just out gangstered Putin and Xi
-
So Iran is saying they captured 40 Delta operators....
They also claimed and posted a pic of a downed B2 that has it's landing gear down while on the sand and a huge gash in it....
Multiple social media people reposting said propoganda.
Also, social media people posting about a draft. Copy/paste. I have 2 friends who posted it and not as a repost. It states "drafting my son". 1 doesn't have kids and the other has a daughter.
At least some other friends have edit the copy/paste post and added "drafting family/friends".
But neither above realize the draft hasn't happened since Vietnam or women don't get drafted (daughter). And that drafts don't start till after a war began, not in the early phases or during non-wartime.

This operation is costing us 1 billion dollars a day.
And Iran has elected Khamenei's son as the new supreme leader. He was reportedly injured in the initial attacks, and it was also reported that his wife and one of his children were killed.
When talks of this might happen, President Trump stated that this would be unacceptable to him and that he wants to be involved in picking Iran's new leader.
And naturally, Iran has shown exactly what they think about President Trump's statements.
1 billion dollars a day to replace a Khamenei with a Khamenei. And I'm pretty sure his "love" for the US is unprecedented.
Can't make this shit up.

I would say it's more like regime muslims in Iran want a regime muslim type leader. The citizens who want freedom like how they had in the 70's want a freedom loving leader.

Trump today states Operation Epic is ahead of schedule of the 4-6 week timeline. So pau already.
On a side note, Iran states they will activate sleeper cells in the US soon. Which means, they drew first blood.

Ain’t life strange?
It appears he was the only kinda guy who could not just survive their all-out attempts to destroy him, but actually come back to humiliatingly defeat them politically, and then begin ripping their tentacles out of our lives and pockets.
Never would have believed it - especially after his first four years.
All you say above is true - let us pray he actually pulls it all off.

This shows what a real leader is. He keeps taking hits and still is efffecient. Anyone else would have folded. He gave up his luxary lifestyle for America. That's why they're doing what they do to him, to show anyone else who wants to do the same down the road, they will make their life a living hell if they're not perfect.
-
Anybody else feel all we did was kick the can down the road? (again) ::)
I say this while these two facts remain:
1) Iran's military ability to strike other countries and make a nuclear weapon has been destroyed.
2) Iran has selected their new leader. The deceased supreme leader's son. Who was wounded in the initial air strikes and which the same strikes killed his wife and son. Whose leadership doctrine mirrors his father's and some say in many ways more extreme.
You put those 2 fact together and you get:
Iran re-builds, still pursues the nuclear weapons and the US does the same thing 5 years or so down the road. Rinse and repeat. With another hundreds of billions of dollars that we can't afford and truthfully don't have.
And here's another twist: If the US elects another biden or hyena we won't have "special military intervention".
We'd be giving them money....... :wave:

That's the usual way things go: make work for the MIC by blowing things up and then handing out contracts to "rebuild" them.
This time it feels different, like Trump is trying to provoke Iran into activating it's American sleeper cells and stoke Middle East conflict
A market crash and sky high commodity prices could be blamed on a the ensuing chaos, but the Democrats would get called out for not only letting in the terrorists but also actively supporting them.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, I just hope it's not us who gets a taste of Persian vengeance.

I want my President to keep the pressure on. I want him to use Green Berets. This is what they are trained for. "De Oppressor Liber". They specialize in helping those oppressed to rise up and make change.
Arm them. Feed them. Give them hope. Courage. Desire. Determination. Right now they have nothing.
Green Berets helping them. Giving them confidence and the will to fight and all of the above.
Frankly that's what I thought was going to happen.
I was thinking the US is going for the complete overhaul. Not a fuckin oil change.

Some from the Iriaian womens soccer team granted asylum in Australia after a game. They refused to sing the Iran anthem . Interesting enough, in an interview of the 5, all have removed their hijabs.
Trump tweeted about how AU should take them in, and if not, the US would. AU said OK shortly after.

Somethign else interesting. When Trump took office and relaxed the regulations on oil, gas prices in HI didn't drop quickly. In fact, it took about a year or more. Some say it's because gas stations buy in advance and the prices agreed upon cannot change with the market. So the stations paid for higher priced gas.
But yet, it took less than a week for the gas prices to increase due to the Iran attacks.
Maybe there's a clause that prices can go up at any time for X reason, but cannot drop for X reason.
Can anyone provide input?

Do some reading on the commodities markets and how prices are set for contracts based on a lot of variables, making them very risky investments -- lot of unknowns.
trading oil futures usually follow a 30-day cycle. Without even owning the oil. you can sell contracts to buyers such as refineries or oil/gas companies. The price you negotiate in the future hedges the price against unexpected changes. So, for example, if you offer to buy 1 billion barrels of crude sweet oil from me on April 15th at $90/bbl, you're protecting against the oil being more than $90 on the expiration date, and i'm speculating the price will be less than $90. If it's less, I buy at whatever the market price is -- let's say $85. That means i just made $5 per bbl profit x 1 billion bbls = $5B. But, if the war in Iran causes a spike in prices, say $100/bbl, then the seller has to buy it at a $10/bbl loss, creating a $10B loss on 4/15.
So, it's not that there is a massive amount of oil being purchased 3 months ahead of selling it at the pump. The contracts allow trading of oil that has yet to be pumped out of the ground and shipped tp market.
Then there's the capitalistic concept of competition. If the Middle East oil prices rise, oil from S. America or Japan will rise due to an increase in demand for their comparatively cheaper oil. HI is more tied to Japan suppliers than the ME.

Iran nuke enrichment destroyed, iran claims the facility make 60% uranium grade. For power, 2-3% is all thats needed. For weapons, over 20%. Some claimed this didnt exist (Kent).
Irans missile striked far away at a US/UK base (diego garcia). They showed they have the capability to strike as far as russia, the UK, etc....of which they claimed they couldnt do.
Trump was right again.

I've had multiple fake news headlines pop up saying "Trump blames Hegseth for the Iran war". They even post a vid of Trump speaking about this. I'm going to assume most did't watch the vid, but just read the headline because no where in the vid does he "blame" Hegseth. What he does say is that Hegseth was the 1st to recommand the attacks.

We are going to have some severe supply shortages soon.
Also I don’t think people will want to vacation here when plane tickets cost $5k
This was going to happen one way or another of course, but at least there is some hope with the Trump version of default vs total surrender to the CCP

Maybe this would loosen regulations so we can drill more. The US has tons of oil on and off shore. But regulations/laws prevent the drillig. We have enough oil that we don't need to buy any from anyone else.
-

It's a popular refrain but it's not true. All the easily recoverable oil is gone, leaving the low quality stuff which is really difficult to get out of the ground.
Invading Venezuela was necessary to secure a reliable supply for the US before destroying the market for everyone else.
I have to admire Trump for his audacity, but we still have a lot of pain to go through before the plan starts bearing fruit.

My source is I was playing craps at Mirage some years ago with some offshore oil drillers. They each bought in about $8K or so and the reason is when they're on the rig, they make good money and can't spend it on anything. So they come to Vegas when back. I mean, they could be wrong.

getting rid of dictator is bad..
https://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2026/03/01/war-choice-hawaii-delegation-condemns-military-action-iran-without-congressional-authorization/
It isn't the removal of the dictator that is the problem, it is the extrajudicial nature of it. If the drug dealer on the corner were to die it would be great for society, doesn't mean we should embrace cops summarily executing them.
Plus there are all the follow up issues of what is and may follow all of this. The dictator definitely had it coming but will we actually see something better replace him or will we have a breakdown into civil war and the next ISIS?

It's been weeks now and what I've noticed. Iranian information being released by their military is like CNN and like as they're mostly fake news, aka wrong.
Examples:
AI generated pics of: Recently they claimed to captured the missing F15 "pilot", which was AI generated as his chute was next to the downed F15. A downed B2 that had some Iranian solders standing next to it and the size is way off. Pics of special forces being captured.
Claims of more aircraft being shot down
Claim of US carrier being destroyed/hit
Many more, but can't remember.
What is interesting is that for the recently resuced pilot, there were Iranian citizens trying to block the roads to prevent their military to search for the guy.
For those who are interested in who resuces downed pilots, the Discover Channel had a good series on PJ's (Para Rescue who do this). But keep in mind this was during OIF (in A-stan) so it's more about medical than downed pilots. But the military channel had a docu some years ago about O'Grady who was resuced decades ago.

from what i've read, not so sure about the "people rising up" part. Seems the IRGC lower echelons still maintain that iron death-grip on the general populace. we'll have to see. Trump gave the Iraqi Kurds a bunch of weapons they were supposed to transfer to the Iranian Kurds, to kick-start the popular revolution, but the Iraqi kurds decided to keep them instead for their own purposes, self-defense. I guess they've been screwed over by the Great America more than once, now looking out for themselves, first.
seems the Iranians are still successfully drone-bombing other arab state refineries, not to mention missiles still landing on Israel, getting past their Iron Dome. still a lot of moving pieces. But hopefully, we're getting there.
Trump really kicked the hornets' nest, and seems the pissed-off hornets took it out on the undefended nearby arab states (UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain). Unintended consequences? Seems the arab states weren't expecting that outcome, totally unprepared, seems like high-value critical assets totally undefended. so much complacency, comes from years of peace, I guess, people let their guard down.
And the US F-15 Weapon System Officer wearing Stars & Stripes BVD's, I'll bet that morning when he got dressed, the notion of him getting shot down seemed like an complete impossibility, "nah, never going to happen, i'll wear my US Flag lucky BVD's", to me, that shows arrogance and complacency, underestimating the enemy. Those BVD's where the first thing he disposed of after the ejection seat landing, reality set in, wake-up call, went "commando", couldn't afford to be caught wearing those, would've made for spectacular Iranian National Theater, gleefully carried live on CNN. Probably going to be a new chapter in the SERE training. Maybe it's already in the training, just conveniently forgotten? maybe after his ride getting shot out from under him, and riding the rocket-sled ejection, maybe he did need to change his shorts?
just my observation and 2 cents. :shaka:

I don't know which is the right info or the wrong info so I read and watch EVERYTHING. Gotta watch most not with a grain of salt but a whole barrel of it.
After a while you get the sense of which media just hates Trump no matter what he does and which media where his shit is high quality ice-cream. And they are gobbling it up.
The military ex-generals, colonels, and SF guys make good listening and watching material.
The biggest take I get from all of this is people are stereotyping. Examples are Iranians are evil. Not true.
They fail to distinguish the regime from the general population.
I think Trump was just talking shit when he said "A whole civilization will die tonight". But there are some people in America that really want it to happen.

So I mentioned my gas price increase in the other page. But I did a quick google and the US gets about 7% of it's oil from the Strait and of which 3% of the US uses it for gasoline purposes. So why the heavy increase in prices so quickly?
Google also said we get 60% or so of our oil from Canada, who doesn't get their oil from the Strait either.
Seems like greed to me and that the corporations are using any excuse to increase profits. I could be wrong.
What we are seeing is how 1 country controls things. Which means at their will, they could cut off the US or other countries. And it's worthy to note that they're not only cutting of the USA/Israel, but everyone.

Some of it may have to do with the different types of oil, Heavy, medium and light. Canada's oil is mostly heavy and cost more to refine compared to the middle east's oil which is mostly medium oil. Plus market uncertainty will cause some increase along with delayed shipments. Even if we only import 8% from the middle east, that 8% decrease in oil on the US market makes the rest of the oil worth more due to the more limited quantity.
But of course greed could also be part of that increase.
-
Trump announced that we're going to be selling US oil to the world, supposedly to stabilize oil prices.
if we have so much oil, that we have an excess of it and can sell to everybody and their uncle, shouldn't our oil be for domestic consumption first? otherwise why are our gas prices going up? What happened to America First? Campaign promises ... the honeymoon is over.
I know the US has lots of oil, but the environmentalists and the greenies are successfully keeping it out of reach, and chief libtard Newsom is shutting down west coast refineries. Progress in the wrong direction.

The US is reporting 170 empty oil tankers are coming our way to fill with our oil due to the Strait being closed and/or mined. Apparently Iran states they've mined it but cannot locate all the mines.
The blockade will be interesting to watch if Chinese ships don't stop. WOuld the US actually fire upon them? I highly doubt they will put their own ships in collision with them as you now jeapordize US sailor lives and putting the ship out of comission for repairs. 1 benefit of communism, if the CCP tells their ships to keep going and ram em if they're in teh way, the captains would obey.

Does anyone know what the US is going to do now with the Iranian ship they accosted yesterday? The US shot and disabled the engine so now the ship is bobbing in the water like a cork. The US also wanted to find out what the cargo is, but the containers are packed where they won't be able to get the doors open.
They need to unload it in a port with a ship to shore crane so they can get access to the containers and what's inside.
Anyone with Maritime experience can offer what options can be taken? Or is the US scratching their heads now like I am.

The WH stated that the ship is known to do illegal imports. I'm more curious if they would try this on a Chinese or Russian ship.
The fact that 1 country can "controll" this strait is a problem. Alternative ways should be made.

and IRGC still in control. Seems the IRGC is composed top-to-bottom of true believer religious zealots, extremists, the whole lot of them. I suspect, unless you wipe them all out, they will always have a "next man up" to run their gig, and ... They Have The Guns.

"special cargo"
"dual use cargo"

Does anyone know what the US is going to do now with the Iranian ship they accosted yesterday? The US shot and disabled the engine so now the ship is bobbing in the water like a cork. The US also wanted to find out what the cargo is, but the containers are packed where they won't be able to get the doors open.
They need to unload it in a port with a ship to shore crane so they can get access to the containers and what's inside.
Anyone with Maritime experience can offer what options can be taken? Or is the US scratching their heads now like I am.

The fake news now is saying how Trump wanted to use nukes on Iran and wanted the codes to do so, but was stopped by 1 general.

So Trump was right again. CNN and 60 minutes admitted that Iran had 60% enriched uranium. Anything over 5% is going to be used as weapons grade uranium and not for power.
Which means Iran ignored the deal made by Obama that the left was claiming Trump messed up.
According to 60 minutes, they had enough to make 10 nukes or so.

i'm surprised that CNN and 60 Minutes admitted to that. Normally (for them), when something doesn't fit their narrative, it gets buried real deep, never to see the light-of-day, like, nuclear toxic waste.

Since they report so much fake news, info that aligns with Trump must be true. I haven't "fact checked" this yet though. It's a CYA thing for them IMO. 1 small mention so they can say "we reported it".

How would they know? It’s the most locked down country on earth right now.
Maybe CNN is finally starting to realize their audience is gone and is considering copying the establishment cheerleaders at Fox News

The truth is out there somewhere.
Right now it's the hardest thing to find. Even harder than the buried uranium somewhere in Iran.

To dig this up would suck. How about just keep bombing it every know and then to make sure no one tries. Good way to use up aging ordinance.

Good training for the pilots also, LOL.
Seriously though, it does suck about the material under tons of rubble. I remember there was one discussion video during the middle of the war where they were speculating of having the material excavated while ground forces and air forces kept vigilance from advancing Iran forces.
Man, that would be some serious sh*t. Imagine the excavator operator sh*tting his pants while bullets and bombs are flying all over the place. :rofl:

There's a risk that the containment was breached. Which exposes radiation to all surrounding rubble. So digging isn't impossible, but very difficult. Then where to place said radioactive sand/concret/etc...while it's being dug. Winds can pick up the particles and spread it. After any uranium is removed, then put the radioactive debris back in the hole. All in 100+ degree heat.
So much easier to leave as is and monitor. Basically make the area "no mans land" and use of deadly force is authorized. If used like Kohoalawe, then any unexploded ordinance would help solve if anyone wants to dig and we don't notice yet.

this might spawn a whole new genre of action/adventure/thriller movies. Maybe even a new Tom Cruise Mission Impossible Sequel. Or a another James Bond?

There are times the President wants to step off that platform.
I dunno. Maybe he did. I didn't check the news yet this morning. :rofl:

can Teslas use cheaper gas? 87? or does is still need 1.21 gigawatts?

Trump is being blamed for Spirit Airlines shutting down due to his attacks in Iran and increased fuel cost. Nevermind that they were already in trouble for years.

The container ships stuck in the Gulf should be running out of food by now. And supplies like medicine, toiletries, and Doritos.
