Estonia's FM @Tsahkna tells me - - Est is open to discussing joining US op in Hormuz, but needs to know precise aims - Est fully backs US-Isr campaign against Iran - Iran is an enemy of Europe - Est sees Isr as a key defense, cyber partner timesofisrael.com/estonia-is-rea…
An important factor in the Hormuz situation is that under maritime law Iran is not "allowed" to close the strait, doing so is an act of war by Iran against the flags of the ships attacked or interdicted, and the US is not responsible or at fault for Iran's actions.
No it didn’t. No. It. Did. Not.
BOMBSHELL: Iran offered to give away ALL of its enriched uranium during peace talks in Geneva. The British thought it was a credible offer. Hours later, Trump started bombing Iran anyway. The US didn't want peace, they wanted war.
You "no new wars" #NoNewWars people forgot how Iran🤔 humiliated the US Navy @USNavy #USNavy under Obama, Captured our sailors and displayed them to be mocked. What did Obama do as punishment oh give them billions of dollars 💸 💵 on a pallet. Thank you President Trump @realDonaldTrump for doing what I voted you in for.

BREAKING: Longtime Trump Advisor @MichaelRCaputo Shares Never-Before-Seen FBI Subpoena And Search Warrant Targeting Him During Biden Administration; Alleges Biden Era Weaponization Continued at DOJ During Trump’s Second Term This week on Straight to the Point I sat down with Michael Caputo, a longtime confidant and advisor to President Trump. In this exclusive interview, Caputo shares a never-before-seen FBI subpoena and sweeping federal search warrant that targeted him during the Biden Administration. Caputo details the horrifying fallout of the secret Biden-era investigation over his Ukraine reporting and anti-weaponization policy work that stayed active even inside the Trump administration and the devastating toll it took on his family. @thelatmg @latimesstudios_ Straight to the Point: FBI’s Secret Targeting of Team Trump 00:35 Michael Caputo: Biden Era FBI ‘Surveilled’ Dozens of Trump Associates 01:28 Caputo Says He Was Targeted Over His Investigation Into Bidens and Anti-Weaponization Initiative 02:12 How Did the Biden-Era Investigation Continue Under AG Bondi? 03:10 Google Alert: FBI Subpoenaed His Records 04:29 Caputo Says He Was Working In Same DOJ Building As DOJ Investigation Targeting Him 06:00 August 2024 Susie Wiles Calls With Shocking News 06:40 Before Presidential Election, FBI Laid A Trap? 07:58 Federal Warrant Wanted Information About Caputo’s State of Mind 09:30 FBI Should Be Shattered: ‘Russia, Russia, Russia All Over Again’ 10:42 FBI File: Caputo Called A Radical Traditionalist Catholic (RTC) 11:30 Caputo 'Had To Go To The Highest Authority’ To Get Case Closed 12:44 Russia Gate Cost Caputo’s Family Everything 13:55 Threats To Caputo And Family 16:10 Accountability For RussiaGate 18:00 If Democrats Win Mid-Terms: Weaponization Will Increase 10x 19:50 Caputo: Task Force For Americans Who Were Harmed By Weaponization 20:50 Response to Critics Who Say Caputo Sees Conspiracies 21:43 Independent Journalism
Victor Davis Hanson says global signals suggest the tide is turning against Iran, arguing U.S. military dominance and shifting alliances point toward a potential collapse if pressure continues: “There’s enough evidence to see how things are really going. Europeans would never agree to go anywhere near Iran unless they thought the tide was turning and that we’re going to win. Otherwise, they would keep still. And the reason that the petro nations of the Gulf survive is they have their finger in the wind and are very attuned to the climate. When you have Al Jazeera praising the United States’ bombing campaign and saying that it’s been underestimated and is brilliant and effective, you get the feeling that they think not only should the United States finish the job, but that it can and will finish the job. So you put it all together, and I think it’s pretty clear that this rope-a-dope strategy—that we’re going to tire before they do—is dependent on public opinion, the midterms, and the United States. And if Trump sees it through—and I think he will—I think they’re going to fall pretty soon.”
This kind of stuff happens during war. We should be on guard.
