Iran has started launching strikes on specific addresses of Israeli leaders, ministers, commanders, pilots, and intelligence officers.
Targeted objectives, specific houses, precise strikes...
In fact, a real hunt for people has begun within Israel.
There is great anxiety in Tel Aviv. Some are trying to save their lives.
Many are going into hiding.
Apparently, Israel did not expect that Iran had such capabilities. They acted confidently and without looking back — now this has become a shock for them.
Another question arises: who helped Iran gain such capabilities, who provides navigation and digital intelligence.

Actually it makes perfect sense when you step back. For those of us who attended a war college, the mind numbing echo chamber where debating was frowned upon, was a script for brainwashing adherence to an agenda dressed up as 'higher education'. It was an indocrination camp based on the same principles as a cult. It works on some and others will not succumb to the brain rot.

Most ppl fail to understand what is at stake in this war to free government institutions from the syndicate's control. It is a life or death situation from the enemy. If they lose control of the military, it's game over. CP just got in their way so a fellow Army officer was tapped to expose him and didn't hesitate for a second to proverbial fire a shot inside the tent and try to take CP out, betting on a deranged individual would take them up on the task. They want everyone living in fear that stands up to them. They are in the wrong community for that to happen. Feckless POS's like Brad, who can't intellectually compete on the battlefield of ideas, will block anyone who challenges his own brainwashing and expose himself as the mental midget he is and exactly who's payroll role he's on. His leash is on so tight it has cut off the flow of blood to his brain.
 
Round and round we go, what the truth is - don't any one know.

Trump wants other countries to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz. That might not be so easy.

Trump, who has previously been bullish about reopening the shipping route, appeared to acknowledge that it would be more challenging to stop Tehran attacking ships.

Joe King said:
"They are attacking their neighbors to try and separate them from Washington."

It just seems so incredibly dumb for them to have done that.

Wtf were they thinking would happen?

They COULD have had a chance to garner support from some of their neighbors.

At some point, Muslims do tend to stick together.
....but this ain't one of 'em, it appears.

Sunni Arabs despise Shia Iranians, didn't you know ? And visa-versa. Its more then just a rift that started in the 7'th century when Muhammad died and they fought over who would inherit his power. The Sunni wanted his kid and the Shia wanted his cousin, at least until they whacked him. While this is a big cause of the schism between the two factions its not the only one. Just as important, if not more so, is the Iranians are mostly Persian which means their roots are more Asian then Middle Eastern/Arab.

The religious rift they could all live with. Each group is required to face Mecca 5 times a day and pray. Each group is supposed to follow the Prophets teachings and the Quran, each must adhere to the 5 pillars of Islam. Their differences are far more political then religious. Think Catholics and protestants.

Sunni Muslims believe the elected caliphs run the show, whereas Shia Muslims hold that leadership should have remained within the Prophet Muhammad's bloodline, his cousin and son-in-law Ali most of all. The one the Sunnis whacked. Both bunches continue uphold the core tenets of Islam but in that part of the world they really know how to hold a grudge.

I think Iran lost this war when they attacked the Arabs. Now they are all alone, flailing, with nothing but enemys around them.
 


🚨A $20,000 drone just changed the price of war forever.

Iran's Shahed costs $20,000 to build. The missile fired to stop it costs $2 million. Iran fired 2,000 in the first week alone.

You do the math. The Pentagon already did.

This is the new battlefield equation: any nation, any proxy, any militia with a credit card and a supply chain can now bleed a superpower slowly and expensively, with no clean counter available.

The Shahed already destroyed Ukraine's infrastructure, paralyzed Red Sea shipping through the Houthis, and is now hitting U.S. bases across 12 countries simultaneously. One drone evaded every layer of American air defense and killed six U.S. service members in Kuwait.

The U.S. response? They captured a Shahed, reverse-engineered it, slapped "Made in America" on it, and fired it back at Iran. That's how good the original design is.

The deeper story: Ukraine spent four years getting hit by these things and became the world's leading authority on stopping them. The Trump administration turned down their expertise eight months before this war started.

After the Kuwait strike, they called Kyiv back.

The $14,000 American counter-drone is now killing the $20,000 Iranian drone. The cost exchange finally flipped. Iranian attacks are down 95%.

But the technology keeps getting cheaper. The autonomy keeps increasing.

One defense CEO told Axios we're entering "phase zero of Terminator."

He's not wrong. He's just early.

🚨Catherine Austin Fitts on the Strait of Hormuz shutdown:

"This is Covid 2.0."

"I think the big problem here is famine."

"It started with the City of London."

"What's in it for them is implementing the control grid and depopulation together."

"You have seen the new administration in the United States systematically cut the domestic funds that are available to support food for poor people in emergencies, as well as the USAID and State Department aid to protect countries that have emergencies like food. So you have, I don't know, 25-maybe billion dollars traditionally that the US had available to stop famines. That money is all cut. And now you have something that's creating the conditions of famine. So... to me that's very disturbing."

This clip of Fitts, a former Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, investment banker, and founder of the Solari Report (@solari_the), is taken from a conversation with Paul Buitink (@paulbuitink) posted to the Reinvent Money YouTube channel on March 14, 2026.
