Since we know US gathering ground troops, do we have any guess where they are going? It is very unlikely a major invasion will work. Small raids were tried but not succesful. If I have to guess they might deploy around Iran to fight Shia militia instead of Iran itself?

Trump used to make fun of Bush for wasting America's resources on the mid east.


Trump: "we have spent 2$ trillions in Iraq and thousands of lives".

now less than three weeks in and the money drain already began.

dude has fully finished his metamorphosis into a dumber version of Bush.

Summary
  • Tungsten prices have surged 557% due to tight supply, Chinese export restrictions, and rising military demand amid global conflicts.
  • The metal is critical for defense (missiles, ammunition, aircraft) and heavily dominated by China, which produces the vast majority of global supply.
  • Efforts to diversify supply are underway, but new production will take years—leaving markets tight in the near term as defense demand grows.

Israel is going to participate in the operation by giving intelligence to the US and Gulf States according to Kann. If giving intelligences to the Gulf is participating in the operation then by extension that means the Gulf is involved in the operation. You don’t need the involvement of the Gulf States to blow up Shia militia in Iraq and everywhere west of Iraq. The only place left is Iran.

They're trying to talk down oil prices, and let's face it, they have no idea what they're doing.
Can't rule out Trump sending troops on suicide runs, but they would send CSGs on suicide runs into the strait before doing any ground op without air cover.
