I think there is a problem in the Pentagon, I don't know if was the change the Pete Hegseth did. But I have the feeling that the commanders there are telling the top brass, including Trump, what they want hear and not necessary what they need to hear. I don't know is fear or something like that but definitely there is something weird happening in the Pentagon. You can see it in Tulsi Gabbard, she just telling Trump and Pete what they want to hear and not what they need to hear. She is powerless.

France calls on Iran to make major concession in exchange for cease fire.

I'd say: fighting means death, concession is also dead. Why not fighting until your last blood?

Imagine being this cynical after all what transpired surrounding the negotiations and what the Iranians were willing to give up just to still get attacked because Witkoff and Kushner are two ignorant nepo babies that shouldn't be anywhere near a negotiation for anything beyond trailer park real-estate.
At this point, what sign isn’t pointing to an ground invasion of Iran.

Someone should remind them that they haven't touched the iranian army either. And given how this whole debacle has shown they haven't learn anything from the war in Ukraine, is going to be a mess of FPV and other asorted drones US soldiers arent prepared to handle

Well, usually you would say the sign they won't do a ground invasion is US don't have even remotely the number of troops, nor regional bases nor air defence nor naval presence nor staging options to do a ground invasion, but then again none of those actually says it can't be tried, it just says it'll fail with a lot of POWs and body bags, which judging by how their original plan got all their ME bases taken out, would actually fit pretty well into their behaviour pattern.

You know I asked a coupe page back where is US sending all these ground forces. All of these troop gathering has to go somewhere right? I overlooked the most obvious answer: Israel. I think they are going to participate in grabbing land around Israel instead of suiciding into Iran. Maybe Lebanon, maybe Syria. Unlikely to be Iraq because they just left there, much less Iran itself. Israel is the only place it makes sense for the amount they are gathering. Combined with IDF itself there is a solid number of troop that can be relatively safely roll over lesser country and fast enough to achieve before interceptors run out.

The problem is if there is a lot deaths may be prompt Trump to escalate the war to the max. Trump is not mentally in his place. Another scenario that i'm hearing is that these troops are going to Lebanon to help Israel with Hezbollah, that will be more likely to another Vietnam.

Just apply the law of negation on the statement, everything becomes clear, tweet is 'Trump: We have unlimited ammunition, and a lot of troops' should be read as, situation for the ammunition is so dire that we are fishing at the bottom of the barrel, second half of statement should be read as, troops are on the verge of mutiny as they are unwilling to die for Epstein class.

That's actually a very plausible explanation: that Israel is deliberately forcing US to commit to ever more horrific military disasters with the goal of eventually forcing 100% US military commitment with draft and martial law, it's the same logic as when they did 911.

Of course this all rest on the assumption that US will survive Israel's indirect attack and if so still has enough force left to do anything. The parasite is trying to induce rage in the host to force it to attack someone it doesn't want to, but if the parasite causes too much pain, it'll kill both the host and the parasite.

If history is any indication, the chosen people doesn't have a very good record when it come to winning this gamble.
