Ideals are not enough to secure peace and freedom—only military superiority and the will to use it will do.
Everything you are about to read happened in the last 24 hours. The USS Gerald R. Ford arrived off Israel. The USS Abraham Lincoln is conducting underway replenishment 850 kilometers from Iran, loading munitions and fuel for sustained combat operations. MizarVision satellite imagery shows four F-22 Raptors positioned on the active runway at Ovda Airbase in Israel. Not parked. Not sheltered. On the runway. That is hot-launch posture. The US State Department ordered evacuation of non-essential employees and families from the embassy in Baghdad. Separately, the US Embassy in Jerusalem approved evacuation of non-essential staff from Israel. Two American embassies, two countries, same order, same day. Israel began opening public bomb shelters in Beersheba, Tel Aviv, and Raanana. Hundreds of IDF reserve soldiers were called up for the air defense command. Yediot Ahronot reported the callups today. You do not activate air defense reserves unless you expect inbound missiles. Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar, America’s largest air operations center in the Middle East, is completely empty of refueling aircraft. Tankers do not vanish from their home base. They disperse to secondary locations before operations begin so a single Iranian missile strike cannot destroy the refueling fleet on the ground. Empty tarmac at Al-Udeid is not absence. It is distribution. 37 fighter jets landed at RAF Lakenheath in the last 24 hours. 12 F-35As. 12 F-15E Strike Eagles. 13 F-22 Raptors. They are expected to depart for the Middle East soon. The staging base is reloading heavier than the first wave that sent Raptors to Israel four days ago. Two carriers in position. F-22s on hot runway. Tankers dispersed. Embassies evacuating from both sides of the theater. Bomb shelters opening in three Israeli cities. Air defense reserves activated. Strike aircraft staging in England. Supply ships topping off a carrier strike group within missile range of Iran. This is not buildup. Buildup is what happened last week. This is final positioning. Every asset is where it needs to be for the first 72 hours of a campaign. The only thing missing is the order. Tomorrow Oman’s Foreign Minister meets Vance carrying Tehran’s answer. After Friday’s sermon declaring enrichment sacred and six governments evacuating their people, we know what that answer contains. And we know what follows when Washington receives it. The clock no longer reads days. It reads hours. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…
🇨🇺 | URGENTE — Se está incendiando en estos momentos la refinería Ñico Lopez en La Habana, la más grande y antigua de Cuba. Este era el punto de descarga del petróleo enviado por México. Tiene un nivel de importancia crítico. Se acaba todo, amigos. El fin se acerca.
French President Macron accuses Trump administration of being “openly anti-European” and attempting to “dismember” the EU.
