These stupid fucks seriously think SpecOps need a runway to land.
Guess they didn’t watch the Venezuela footage
So were mines actually deployed or not?
Given the fact that a “suicide boat” was used, I’m guessing it’s not going well.
How the fuck is that going to convince people to still vote for him come midterms?
By midterms Iran will be a distant memory and we may be able to vaca in Cuba. We are already shipping oil from Venezuela, a nation run by a sworn enemy two months ago. We are in day 70 of 2026. The amount of happenings since Trump took office again is increasing exponentially.

Our 250th birthday party is going to be amazing.

 
Did you know that the B-21 Raider has the capability of firing off NUCLEAR-tipped cruise missiles? Yeah. Now picture this China: A B-21 raider with one of those versus the Three Gorges Dam. From the wiki - "In November 2025, a B-52 bomber was spotted carrying what appeared to be two test-modified AGM-181 missiles, bearing many similarities to the only publicly released rendering of the weapon."

Every bomber built since the 1950s can carry "nuclear tipped cruise missiles". It's not a new capability. B-52Gs could carry AGM-86s 40 years ago. AGM-181 is just replacing old shit with new shit.
 
After some google-fu I found out these were the last dedicated anti-mine US navy ships:

They were fiberglass over wood hulls. There's apparently 4 still active and their home port is in Japan.
The Clitoral Combat Ships can be fitted with the Mine Countermeasures Mission package.

As Israeli drones are flying over the sky and targeting basij checkpoints, Iranians are shouting “death to basijis” and “death to the dictator”
They should send EW drones to accompany them with antennas that can overcome local jamming so Iranian civilians can watch on Livestream.

"SUPERCHAT IF YOU WANT THE BASIJ CHECKPOINT AT THE CORNER OF AMADULLAB STREET AND AYATOLLAH AVENUE TO GET HIT. FIRST $10USD SUPER GETS THEM HIT WITH ONE OF THOSE SWORD HELLFIRES."
"THUMBS UP FOR BASIJ INCINERATION."
"3 HEARTS FOR 3 SMALL DIAMETER BOMBS."
 
The Iranians swore loyalty to a cardboard cutout of the new Ayatollah. It wasn't even a good cardboard cutout. It was really bad.

So bad that I can't believe they did it.

This does not project a winning spirit.
I genuinely thought it was AI when I first saw it. Does anyone know why they couldn’t have at least used a refrigerator box that hadn’t been folded into quarters?

Hitler could comeback from the dead, bringing forth the Fourth Reich and the left would still call Trump bad for going to war to stop him.
They’re just the modern incarnation of the America First Committee of the interwar period.
Also that Lebanon pager thing was fake
The original pager attacks definitely made an impression. Almost two years later and every time Israel goes on the attack and enemies get scared that their electronic devices are going to start playing Hava Nagila
 
What exactly could they hit near the strait?

I imagine they want to set up for minesweepers, but I don’t know how they could safely go about it at this point in time.
1) Enemy air bases and anti-aircraft installations, to allow frequent and accurate combat sorties (this is pretty much already done)
2) radar vehicles & installations that can guide anti-ship missiles (this allows USN ships to move closer to the AO
3) ports, docks, boat launching infrastructure, anything that the Iranians use to actually get boats and USVs in the water
4) remaining navy and IRGCN vessels, crews and USV launch teams

I also imagine with Iran's navy taking a heavy hit in the first few nights, that the IRGCN with their smaller, spammier boat fleet will start bearing the brunt of USAF & USN offensive strikes.

And the 2nd in command of Al-Qaeda (al-Zawahiri) only was killed recently in 2022 after we left because he assumed it was ok to return from hiding in Pakistan just to be droned in Kabul.
TIL al-Zawahiri is dead.

I thought jihadi grandpa was still hiding in a cave in Somalia or Pakistan or some shithole.

If Trump can take out more of the Cartel in that time as well then everything should be great.
 
Buck breaking iran is the most america benefitting geopolitical action possible second only to buck breaking the CCP and possibly north korea.
6th behind breaking the Cartels/Reds in Colombia, doing the same in Mexico, de-bolshevizing Brazil, buck breaking the CCP, and nuking India.
