I've lived this. Let me tell you where this is going.
When I was flying F-18's around the Gulf decades ago, the Strait of Hormuz was first and foremost in planning sessions from Washington to my ready room.
And here is what we knew.
It could not be secured then. Not truly secured. 100% secured.
And that was the key.
Today that is more true than ever. The nature of war changed forever in 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine and got its ass kicked in the first 2 months.
Drones and cheap missiles revolutionized warfare, and gave small nations an assymetry in power projection they had never possessed.
What should get everyone's attention is the Iranian attack on Lars Raffan, the world's largest LNG processing facility.
After 3 weeks of complete air superiority and saturated bombing that "ran out of targets" Iran managed to launch 5 ballistic missiles at that field.
The Shahed 131 and 136 drones cost between $10-50k and can be transported in small pieces in a pickup, assembled onsite in hours and launched.
Most intercepts on our side cost $4M for the Patriot and up to $12M for the THAAD.
And here is something that should get your attention. We will not be able to rebuild our inventories without China's cooperation. Full stop. They have us by the balls due to one thing:
Rare Earth minerals, magnets, and most importantly, the refining needed to process them.
If this conflict continues things are going to break in the system. Severely break.

NOBODY IS TELLING YOU HOW FUCKED THE FARMERS ARE IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW.
NOBODY IS TELLING YOU HOW FUCKED THE FARMERS ARE IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW.
The Agriculture Secretary just confirmed it publicly.
1 in 4 American farmers has NO fertilizer secured for spring planting.
No fertilizer. No crops. No food.
Farm bankruptcies are up 46% in 2025.
160,000 farms closed since 2017.
Less than half of all farmers will even turn a profit this year.
They're not struggling. They're being wiped out.
And the media is busy covering everything else.

A message to Washington?
In a tightly structured 12-minute address, Ayatollah Imam Sayyed Mojtaba Khamenei moved from familiar rhetoric into something far more consequential. The opening half followed the expected script; revisiting decades of U.S. warmongering rhetoric: sanctions, assassinations, regional conflicts.
But midway through, the tone shifted from retrospective to strategic.
Sayyed Khamenei outlined three concrete demands, each with a defined timeline: a rapid U.S. military withdrawal from the Middle East, a full rollback of sanctions within 60 days, and long-term financial compensation for economic damages.
Then came the ultimatum. Fail to comply, and Iran escalates, economically, militarily, and potentially nuclearly. Not hypothetically, but operationally: closing the Strait of Hormuz, formalizing defense ties with Russia and China, and moving from ambiguity to declared nuclear deterrence.
The timing of external reactions was just as telling. Within hours, both Beijing and Moscow issued statements aligning, carefully but unmistakably, with Tehran's framing. This definitely looked coordinated.
The broader context matters. Sayyed Mojtaba Khamenei represents a different leadership style from his martyred predecessor leader. Where martyr Sayyed Ali Khamenei operated through long-term balancing and controlled escalation, Sayyed Mojtaba appears positioned to deliver faster, more decisive outcomes.
Iran's internal reports are clear, the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps is in no way, shape or form interested in incrementalism. They are pushing for structural change: removing U.S. influence from the region, restoring Iran's military standing, and forcing a re-negotiation of global power dynamics.
And for the first time in decades, Iran practically has the leverage to do this.
Rising oil prices, regional instability, growing alignment with China and Russia, and vulnerabilities in global trade routes have shifted the strategic landscape.
So this was not just a speech. It was a test. A test of whether the United States is willing, or even able, to operate under a new set of constraints.
What happens next will likely define not just the trajectory of this conflict, but the broader balance of power in the Middle East for decades to come.

Battle for Okinawa lasted about three months. The Japanese commander committed sepuku. American deaths = 12,000+. Japanese deaths = 200,000+.
And that was with intense US Naval/military and intelligence support and full-body support from Americans.
Most Americans have no idea what full-commitment war means. My two Green Beret A-teams both trained intensely for what amounted to kamikaze missions into Poland. We almost certainly would all have died. I trained for three years to be a Green Beret kamikaze against Soviets. And I would have parachuted in there and done it. As with many US Special Operations forces, I always respected Japanese and Americans who gave their all. Deeply respected, and respect.
And now with the advantage of decades of study and world travel, years in manufactured wars, I slowly and then more quickly began to realize this all is a giant, bloody game by elites who should be destroyed en masse.
Our military and Nation is being systematically destroyed. Then comes military draft in USA. Draft of foreigners to genocide Americans.
There will be massive famines.
Print this out.
Frame it.
The Beast pitched our Japanese Brothers and Sisters against our American Brothers and Sisters.
These Kamikaze are literally our best Japanese Brothers crashing into our Best American Brothers.
Japanese and Americans were natural allies. The Japanese 442nd Regimental Combat team was the most decorated outfit for its size in all of World War II. Japanese died in huge numbers and with stacks of Medals of Honor and more -- in service to USA, who had imprisoned them. More accurately, The Beast did this thing.
President Grant saw this clearly when he came here to Japan in 1879. That we were natural allies with Japanese.
The 1945 Battle for Okinawa was American Brother and Sister vs. our Japanese Brothers and Sisters.
See the Beast. Destroy the Beast. The Iranians are NOT the Beast.
Now our Marine Brothers and Sisters are willfully being sent to their deaths in service of Evil.
Gigafamine is coming.
Kamikaze were not evil. I have massive respect for Kamikaze. And to our American Brothers and Sisters. I and many other Americans were American Kamikaze who never were called to do the mission -- others were, and may they rest in eternal respect and peace.
Persians no doubt will take up the kamikaze and fight to the end. Why are we doing this to the entire world?
Zionist death-cult. Including Christian, Jewish, and atheist Zionists. On a global scale, they are few in number. And are becoming weaker by the hour.
I have never met a Persian or a Japanese I wanted to kill, or sensed needed killing. I am American. Proudly American. Now in Okinawa. Likely a scene of future battle.
Japan must get energy from the closest sources available. Now. And fertilizer.
Kamikaze never were evil. They were the Best. Many Americans have been Kamikaze. Sacrificing themselves for the Tribe.
Everyone wants to be a hero until it's time to do hero stuff. It's time to do hero stuff.

Will somebody please explain to me how, with the Strait of Hormuz a no-go-zone for the U.S. Navy, and our warships driven out of the Persian Gulf, we can support a USMC amphibious landing on Kharg Island, 750 miles from the eastern tip of Oman?🧵 Is the Tripoli Amphibious Ready Group going to storm into the Persian Gulf, where our Burke-class destroyers won't go? Obviously not. This idea is insane. How about by helo and tilt-rotor? Out of range. What if they stage in Kuwait or Saudi Arabia for helo and Osprey lifts across the Gulf? Russia and China will tell Iran where to aim their drones and missiles while the force is assembling. Maybe a mass paradrop? Straight into an "Alamo" siege. Great idea. Not. What if the Marines just capture some of those "small" islands in the Strait of Hormuz? Qeshm is bigger than Okinawa. Larak is bigger than Iwo Jima. Any idea how many Marines and Soldiers it took to conquer just those 2 islands, at what cost in KIA and WIA? I keep reading absolute MORONS on X telling how some A-10s are "softening up" an area larger than South Vietnam, so that a few thousand Marines can attack and hold . . . what? It's as if space aliens studying only still images had no sense of scale of earth creatures, and thought a mouse could eat an elephant. It boggles my mind.

You want to know why almost no one in the West has ever heard of Operation Gladio? Because it clearly illustrates that western governments will kill their own citizens to stay in power.
Sure, they killed over 10M ppl in other countries to monopolize their resources and enslave the citizens under military dictatorships, but that was over there and not here. Sure they assassinated heads of states, but that was over there. Sure they interfered with elections, but that was over there.
The west has been enslaved and we currently live in a hologram. Your government set up a worldwide narco network and facilitated its trafficking to your door step. They assassinated JFK, RFK, MLK and anyone promoting peace and equality. They coup’d Nixon. Become a dissident or wake up? You’re a target. Attend 1/6? They thank you for identifying yourself and throw you in prison. The assassinations, imprisonments etc are to demand you shut up. The domestic terror false flags? They terrorize you into compliance and not fighting for your freedoms.
Foreign wars serve many functions. Protection for trafficking (narco, weapons and humans (refugees)), elimination of patriots and an entire generation of alpha males where even if you come back you’re psychologically changed, drugged and experimented on while in the military. It facilitates the exploitation of resources.
Once you realize your government will kill you, it changes everything. Gladio unequivocally proves this is true so no one talks about it.

The entire American-Israeli empire was built on one thing: the myth of invincibility.
1967 created it. Six days. Three armies defeated. The world said: untouchable.
For 58 years, that myth kept the region in line. Don't resist. You can't win. They're invincible.
October 7 shattered it. A group with no air force, no navy, no satellites breached every defense Israel had.
And now Iran a country under 45 years of sanctions, one of the most economically strangled nations on earth is doing this:
Shut down the Strait of Hormuz. Zero traffic. First time in history. Hit Israel's largest refinery. 50% of its fuel supply. Deployed hypersonic missiles that Israel's OWN missile defense chief says are "impossible to intercept" Hit A US F-35, the most expensive weapons program in human history, $1.7 TRILLION just made an emergency landing after a mission over Iran. CENTCOM won't say if it was hit.
Acountry under sanctions since 1979 just touched the "untouchable."
And the IRGC says: "The missiles we've been firing are from a decade ago. We haven't used our newest weapons."
Now look at the cost:
🇺🇸 $11.3 billion in ONE WEEK 🇺🇸 $50 billion more requested 🇮🇱 $826 million emergency vote at midnight while DENYING a shortage 🇮🇱 $44 million per interception (11 Patriots × $4M each) 🇺🇸 THAAD pulled from Korea. Marines pulled from Japan. Munitions pulled from the Pacific. 🇺🇸 ZERO allies sent warships. France said no. Germany said no. NATO said no.
Iran spends $500K on a missile. The US spends $44 million stopping it.
That math doesn't work. And empires don't fall from one battle. They fall from the math.
Rome didn't fall in a day. It bled out fighting wars it couldn't afford on frontiers it couldn't hold.
The Soviet Union didn't lose to Afghanistan militarily. It went bankrupt trying to win.
America didn't lose Vietnam in combat. It lost the will to keep paying.
And now? $11.3 billion a week. Oil at $115. Gas up 86 cents. NATO refusing to help. Pacific stripped bare.
China watching. Russia profiting.
Against a country using decade-old missiles. That hasn't deployed its best weapons. That is fighting without a single ally sending troops or money.
And Israel? Israel dragged America into this. Every war Israel fights, America pays for. Every interceptor, every carrier group, every F-35 sortie American money. American soldiers. American debt.
Israel's wars don't weaken Israel. They weaken America.
And when America is too weak to fight Israel's wars what happens to Israel?
The myth of invincibility is already broken.
The only people who don't see it are the ones still living inside it.
