A little war for a whole lot of peace?

"This week the Democrats will try to muster enough votes to end this war for freedom in Iran. Why? They hate Trump so much, they would sacrifice freedom and peace in the Middle East just to get at Trump. The vote should fail, and this war for liberation and peace will continue. But when will this war end? When it is over. Trust me, nobody wants it over quicker than the brave men and women who are currently at the tip of the spear."    

In February of 1979, my wife had been married not quite five years. We had recently moved into our first house. The company I worked for housed some Iranian pilots for training on the airborne computers which the company manufactured. Through an FMS (Foreign Military Sale), the company was under contract by the Shah of Iran. Then the revolution came. Just like that, the deal was over. Our embassy staff in Iran was held hostage by the radicals in the "new" Iran for 444 days. The pilots who were onsite at the company were like orphans. No home to go back to. Then for the next almost fifty years, the world witnessed a new face of terror. Having a theocracy in Iran - has been terrible for the region - for the world. That is, until Donald Trump became president. 

It is somewhat ironic that right after the launch of the Board of Peace, the man who founded the Board would unleash his military on Iran. But this war will be different. It is a necessary war to bring about a whole lot of peace. Whereas the War on Ukraine started by Putin is nothing more than a war of conquest. The war (should it come) for Taiwan will be a war for conquest by China. Once we liberate Iran from its now unwanted theocracy, there will be no conquest by anybody. Only freedom for the people, and peace for the world. 

Donald Trump spent countless hours with his negotiation team trying to strike a deal which would bring about peace with no bloodshed. But there were three red lines which needed to be agreed to for the deal to be struck. No enriched uranium, no ballistic missiles, and free elections for the people. The answer by the team the Mullahs had sent to Geneva was "No, no and no". That was it for negotiations. Even though Trump offered "off ramps" to the Iranians, they refused. The carrot did not work, so it was time to use the stick.

This almost fifty-year nightmare needed to come to an end. Donald Trump has told the Iranian people that we are "setting the table" for their freedom, but they must finish the job by liberating themselves from their current theocracy. The problem for the unarmed people of Iran is simply this - they will be going up against what remains of the IRGC and the elite Quds Force. By the way, it is thought it was the Quds Force who was behind the massacre of the 30,000+ innocent protestors in the streets of Iran. The people remember that. The US and Isreal need to further degrade the IRGC and Quds to make an internal overthrow of the current regime more likely to succeed. 

This week the Democrats will try to muster enough votes to end this war for freedom in Iran. Why? They hate Trump so much, they would sacrifice freedom and peace in the Middle East just to get at Trump. The vote should fail, and this war for liberation and peace will continue. But when will this war end? When it is over. Trust me, nobody wants it over quicker than the brave men and women who are currently at the tip of the spear.    

One magic moment...

 

"One more thing - the dumbest thing Iran did yesterday, was to send missiles into most all of its neighbors. Any threat of mercy and compassion that any of those countries might have had for Iran, vanished when the first ballistic missile hit their soil. Now most of the Middle East countries are enemies of the current Iranian regime. Friends of ours - enemies of Iran."

For those who might have been living off the grid, the big, big news was simply this - America and Israel did the near impossible. Playing a bit of a ruse and using tactics which are antithetical to a normal military practice, the combined team of the USA and Israel did a brazen mid-morning attack on Iran and caught many of the senior leadership with their pants down. And just like that, in one magic moment, we took out forty top Iranian leadership people, including the Supreme Leader.

And just like that, the scope and scale of this war was set. We have cut off the head of the snake. True, there are still some leadership types hanging around who escaped the surprise attack from yesterday, but for them, it is just a matter of time. We will now use the "big stick" to pound the living beepers out of selected targets. In a day or two, we should have neutralized all Iran's air defenses, which will allow our F-15E heavy bomb haulers to really put the explanation point on this incredible victory.

What is the most amazing, is the Democrats back home are trying muster a vote this week which will demand Trump stop what he is doing in Iran. Why? War powers. With this amazing victory, one of the greatest since WWII, within inches of our grasp - the Trump haters are out in full force. Give up this very important victory just to get back at Trump. In fact, the Soros funded protesters were also in the streets caterwauling. They were carrying signs which on one side said "F*** ICE" and on the other side "No war with Iran". Okay - that was a joke. The signs did not say anything about ICE.

Now for the next few days, it will be a giant game of cat and mouse. The Iranians will be taking mobile launchers out of hidden bunkers and launching ballistic missiles at anything and everything. The US and Israel, need to take out these mobile launchers as soon as they reveal themselves. "Shoot the archer on the ground". If the missile launches, we need to rely on our interceptors to take them down. However, some have been getting through. 

In a period of sixty days, our military has taken Maduro (as a prisoner) out of Venezuela and then killed the Supreme Leader of Iran. A simply amazing feat! Once we finish up and pull our fleet home (or back to the Pacific), peace will break out all over the Middle East. 

One more thing - the dumbest thing Iran did yesterday, was to send missiles into most all of its neighbors. Any threat of mercy and compassion that any of those countries might have had for Iran, vanished when the first ballistic missile hit their soil. Now most of the Middle East countries are enemies of the current Iranian regime. Friends of ours - enemies of Iran.  

 

 

A war whose time has come...

"If you are a praying person, pray for our brave men and women in our Armed Forces who are now in harm's way. Pray for Israel, who might be on the cusp of a long-sought peace. And pray for the citizens of Iran, who have been under the thumb, or under the boot of the Mullahs for almost fifty years." 

Spoiler alert! It was just disclosed this morning that our intel has determined that immediately after Operation Midnight Hammer concluded, the snakes who control Iran continued to enrich uranium at alternate sights. Today, at 10am Iran time, the hammer fell. All those ships and aircraft which have been staged in the Iranian area, were given the "go" signal from President Trump. The war to get rid of the Mullahs, which has taken us almost 50 years to gather the resolve to finish, is now under way. It is a war whose time has come.

In the past few weeks, if one of the Mullahs had asked me if they were in any danger, I would have only told him one thing - Donald Trump is not Barack Obama or Joe Biden. He is a man not to screw around with. They should know from what happened to General Soleimani. Donald Trump is a man of great resolve. He is the backbone behind Operation Epic Fury. The F-35I of Israel as well as stealthy aircraft of United States Armed Forces, landed the first blow during the middle of the night (our time). Who was targeted? The upper echelon of the Iranian government and military.

Now the return volley has started. Iran is launching some (not many) ballistic missiles toward Israel and countries in the area which are housing or hosting our military. We are now broadcasting a message to Iran in their native language of Farsi. The message basically said that we (the US) told you that help is on the way. And now it is here. We will set the table by getting rid of as many of your leaders as possible, but it is up to the citizens to do the rest. As Trump finished his statement, "Don't let this moment pass you by."

We have come a long way since Jimmy Carter. When the radicals took over Iran in 1979, and held Americans hostage for 444 days, we were helpless (or feckless) to do anything. For decades we watched Iran be the bad guys of the neighborhood, threatening Israel with destruction on almost a daily basis. Today, the reckoning has begun. The evil leaders of Iran soon will be no more. Isreal and the USA will clean house, and then this evil theocracy in Iran will be no more. A new Iran, a free Iran, will be reborn.

If you are a praying person, pray for our brave men and women in our Armed Forces who are now in harm's way. Pray for Israel, who might be on the cusp of a long-sought peace. And pray for the citizens of Iran, who have been under the thumb, or under the boot of the Mullahs for almost fifty years. 

 

 

Hate Canada? Hate Canadians? Or love both?

 

"When Trump invited Trudeau to the White House, he teased the Canadian about Canada becoming our 51st state, and Justin could be the governor. It was all a joke - Trump was pulling his leg. The good citizens of Alberta, however, did not see that as a joke. They are all on board with leaving Canada and become our 51st state."

The answer is quite simple to both questions. I, like most Americans, love Canada. Have since I was a kid. I also have met some very nice Canadians in my lifetime. Served with some. Do I hate Canadians? Not a bit. I do, however, have animus to what their government has done to Canada. The socialist government has taken this great country, almost a twin to our country, and turned it into a northern version of Venezuela. How so? Rich in resources, and a government which will not allow the people to take advantage of them.

First off, Mark Carney needs to retire. Because of his p***s envy of Donald Trump, he has caused a rift (an unnecessary one) between our two countries. Mostly about tariffs (and now maybe hockey also). When Trump talked to Trudeau as well as Carney about the unbalance of tariffs charged, those two globalists just smiled and nodded. Like Biden would do. But Trump likes reciprocal tariffs. He told Carney that if he did not lower his tariffs on us, we would raise our tariffs on them. And just like that, Trump was Hitler. 

Trump is right when he said Canada needs us. They need us more than we need them. We would like to have them as a most favored trading partner and a friend, but so long as Carney plays footsie with Xi of China, that will not happen. Somebody (whom I shall not name) said we should do the same to Carney as we did to Maduro. Get him out of office, send him to Greenland, and purge the socialist flavor out of the drinking water in Ottawa. Speaking of which, Carney may have his following in eastern Canada, but out west he is about as popular as a root canal. 

Will peace ever return to the shire? That is, short of electing another globalist like Joe Biden? The socialists in Europe loved Biden as does the eastern part of Canada. Donald Trump however - the globalists do not know how to deal him. Why? Donald Trump likes to tip the nest so the baby birds can learn to fly on their own. He wants every country to succeed on their own merit. Like, "Make {fill in the blank} Great Again". It is working fine for America, and Trump knows it will work fine for other countries as well. 

There is irony in this past year or so with our relations with Canada. When Trump invited Trudeau to the White House, he teased the Canadian about Canada becoming our 51st state, and Justin could be the governor. It was all a joke - Trump was pulling his leg. The good citizens of Alberta, however, did not see that as a joke. They are all on board with leaving Canada and becoming our 51st state. As they say in hockey - Score!   

NATO? Some of the members are now soft as a sponge

 

Some look across the pond and see Donald Trump and hate him because he is not like Biden and Obama. Others see Donald Trump and are very happy he has replaced 'Sleepy Joe' Biden. Finally. some look at Donald Trump and want to be just like him. Those are the ones who will come out just fine on the other side. 

Here is the good news. After four bloody years of fighting, this is the weakest that Russia has been for many, many years. Nukes aside that is. Here is the bad news. NATO has some formerly strong partners who have turned into pussy cats. Weaklings. Sure, Poland is strong and getting stronger every month. Italy has seen the error of its ways with unfettered immigration and is fixing it. But the UK is a mess and getting messier. Canada? About ready to split in half, as some in the west have had it with Carney's socialist BS.

Some in the Euro Zone blame the US for this newfound weakness. Particularly, Donald Trump, aka "Daddy". Trump would love to see a stronger NATO. But NATO wants the US to be like it was under Biden and Obama - and ATM machine for Europe. But Europe needs to realize to be strong, it needs to have control of its borders. No nation can survive as a total welfare state. Even though Biden tried to change our culture to open borders, Trump slammed them shut just in time. 

The UK is so petty right now, it has stalled the talks with the US to gain control over this pimple of an island in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Why? Is it a vacation spot? Not hardly. It is however in the neighborhood of Diego Garcea, and the US would like to beef up this very strategic location for security purposes. But Starmer, because he can be a "Richard", has decided to stall the negotiations. Even though the US having a stronger presence in the Indian Ocean would benefit everybody - including the UK. Go figure.

And Canada, what in the world? You booed our National Anthem on the world stage in Olympic hockey? Just because Mark Carney got his feelings hurt by Donald Trump. What Carney should be doing right now is fixing his socialist country. It is a mess. Alberta is all but gone, and Saskatchewan and BC might be right behind them. Why does half of Canada want out right now? Liberty and freedom. Trudeau and Carney have treated western Canada like serfs and subjects. What do folks in western Canada really want? To be a part of US. These western Canadians were not the ones booing the US at the Olympics.

If NATO does not get its act together, boot out illegal immigrants, secure borders, live up to the NATO financial requirements, then NATO might indeed be in its final days. Sad to say this once stalwart organization is now weakened by statists and globalists.

Some look across the pond, see Donald Trump and hate him because he is not like Biden and Obama. Others see Donald Trump and are very happy he has replaced "Sleepy Joe" Biden. Finally. some look at Donald Trump and want to be just like him. Those are the ones who will come out just fine on the other side. 

Under the dangling Sword of Damocles

 

"There is one more thing. Iran has made it known, both directly and indirectly, that Iran will close the Strait of Hormuz as well. That would cripple the world economy, even if shut for a short period of time. The price of gas might return to Biden levels, and some other items might also increase in price. But to take Iran off the table of terrorism, to get rid of their theocracy, this might be the price we need to pay."

For those who are paying attention to all the military stuff, the clock might be clicking down to midnight. That is, for the Mullahs in Iran. For weeks now, for the bad guys who are running Iran, it appears that the dangling Sword of Damocles is getting closer to breaking free and falling. Iran knows it, Israel knows it, and the United States sure the heck knows it. And when the sword falls (figuratively) on Iran, it will make Operation Midnight Hammer look like a kiss on the cheek by comparison.

Negotiations (if you can call them that) continue with Iran. The liars from ancient Persia have told our team that 1) they are not getting rid of the present government, and 2) they will continue to enrich uranium. Not to make a bomb of course, just to have it for "peaceful purposes." Nobody on the United States negotiation team has "stupid" tattooed on their forehead - in other words, nobody is taking the bait. Trump said, no uranium - period. That is a bright red line.

With negotiations going nowhere, and with the United States "armada" sitting off Iranian waters, Trump has ordered the and F-22 squadron to England. Why does that matter? The F-22, which acts more like a sixth-generation jet than a fifth-generation jet, is the finest platform in the world right now - hands down. During Midnight Hammer, they were only on station for four days until used. If history repeats on the four-day window, expect hostilities to commence this weekend.

What can we expect if hostilities do break out? It will probably be the toughest fight we have been in for years. Iran has been expecting this for years. Are they ready for it? Sure are. Israel will take the brunt of much of the return fire. Why? Easy target. And any US base will also be on the table. But what they really want, which would be huge prize, is to sink one of our ships. In the eyes of the Mullahs, that would make the good guys "tuck tail and run". The war would be over, with Iran remain standing.

There is one more thing. Iran has made it known, both directly and indirectly, that Iran will close the Strait of Hormuz as well. That would cripple the world economy, even if shut for a short period of time. The price of gas might return to Biden levels, and some other items might also increase in price. But to take Iran off the table of terrorism, to get rid of their theocracy, this might be the price we need to pay.

What is wrong with white liberal women???

 

"And now I will say it, so get ready to hang up on me if you are a Trump hater. When I saw the men, arm in arm, singing the Anthem, this was my thought - MAGA is on display. America, the true America, is on display. Proud to be an American? I know I am!"   

First a caveat. I saw this story on social media this morning, so there is a chance it might be false. BUT - knowing how many liberals react to anything good and pure, I am guessing it might be truth. 

This posting was the picture of a white, liberal woman looking very angry. In this post, she was imploring her white, liberal sisters to shun the Olympic Gold Medal winning hockey team. Do not watch the State of the Union, as the Goldies were to be honored by Trump. The Olympic women, who also are Goldies, were invited, but declined. In any event, this white, liberal woman not only seethed hatred towards our latest heroes but also told her following to never forgive them. For what? For being with Trump tonight.

Let's revisit the list of offenses that our Goldie men did. First off - they won. Picked on a socialist country like Canada. SHAME! No wonder Mark Carney hates us! Then, the boys skated around the rink, with American flags in tow. Not upside down, like the liberal, white women prefer. No, our stars and bars were there for all to see. It was American pride on display.

One final thing they did which was simply unforgivable to the liberal, white women. Arm in arm, they sang the National Anthem. Nobody knelt, nobody turned his back, and nobody raised his fist. This was a love song for America, sung by a bunch of kids who love every inch of this great country.

Why can't white, liberal women act like adults, just for this one very proud moment in our history? Why is their TDS so strong? Why do they hate with such passion? Did they not learn in church that hate is toxic, and our Lord wants us to trade hate in for forgiveness. Maybe if the white, liberal women went to church, they would not be so bitter. They could be better, not bitter.

What do I think about the heroes who played the best of the best and won? I am talking both the men and women. I salute them. I am so, so proud of them, and happy for them. Every bit of kudos they receive from adoring fans are Fine with me. Being honored by our president is fine by me. 

And now I will say it, so get ready to hang up on me if you are a Trump hater. When I saw the men, arm in arm, singing the Anthem, this was my thought - MAGA is on display. America, the true America, is on display. Proud to be an American? I know I am!
