“Whack-a-Mole” launch pads. Anywhere, anytime. Can be dismantled quicker than an incoming US missile.
ipso, so now they have to totally obliterate all launch pads again. Will the US now capture/redirect those tankers carrying Iranian crude that it let through?
No sign of the fat lady yet.

BREAKING: Iran’s IRGC announces it has struck “multiple high value US Army positions in the region” in response to today’s US strikes on Iranian coasts near the Strait of Hormuz, per Tasnim.
The IRGC adds that “according to Clause 5 of the Islamabad MoU, the arrangements for controlling passage and traffic in the Strait of Hormuz are under the authority of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” warning “if the aggression is repeated, our response will be broader than this.”
The Iranians are really fast at rebuilding them…聽 馃檪
What is a launch site? These drones can probably be launched from the back of a truck. That’s why they have to keep obliterating them. Another case of three $2,500 drones downed by $10m of interceptors, and one still got through? Looks like the Iranians have got the ratio right, a 1:4 success rate.
The IRGC just lost some more assets…..some strange kind of winning…..4 drones out, 3 shot down 1 partial hit….all launch sites obliterated.

BREAKING: US forces struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations and coastal radar sites today as a response to Iran’s drone attack yesterday on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz, per CENTCOM.
These are the first US strikes since the MOU was signed.
jitters about what might happen over the weekend ??
Right or the fact that houses were thrown off the foundations. Cement in between brick or brick without say rebar enforced just crumble and bricks fall when the shaking starts. Nails in wood usually in corners by themselves pull apart. I don’t know all that much about building but I know what I saw first hand before they made building changes. Japan high rise buildings have survived 9 after improving construction codes for earthquakes.

BREAKING: More than three consecutive explosions heard in the Strait of Hormuz, near Sirik, southern Iran, per IRIB.
This comes shortly after Trump, when asked about potential US response to Iran’s recent attacks on vessels in the Strait, replied “you will find out.”

Gold is in a 45-year parabolic slingshot-move.
Posted on the blue breakout in linked post.
Target is $15 000 – $20 000 since many years back, and might raise it further.
Now in a much needed consolidation/pullback, which could last longer than many thinks.
Evidently we are hitting some Iranian targets in retaliation for the attacks on shipping …
I’d hate to live in a high rise where the builder paid scant attention to the foundation!
Those building in South America if they don’t start building to earthquake codes it’s gonna continue to cost more lives. I didn’t see any mass emergency responses for the ones still trapped in the debris. Last time I was deep in South America traveling around with a friend around 2005.. the retired crew chief also contractor saw a two story building that concerned him. Had to do with safety. I asked if it was not good he said no it wasn’t.

A woman hiking in Canada nearly became a grizzly鈥檚 next meal and the video circulating right now is genuinely one of the most intense wildlife encounters you will ever watch – her dog is with her, a massive grizzly is right there, and somehow she kept her head together long enough for both of them to walk away breathing.
SM roaring back. Rates down a little, dollar down a little. Oil down to $69 and threatening lower.
Would be a special gift if silver could close above $60, gold $4100.
Like winning a trophy for last place.
here’s hoping it holds.
Apparently, the information war is hotter than the real one.
Says Iran’s pledge of no nukes demands聽“very strong” verification..
about a bank shutdown over the 4th of July weekend. I’m sure it’s just chatter like so much other crap that gets thrown out there. The other thing is of course the false flag.
It would make for a helluva 250th anniversary celebration though.
If the EU starts penalizing the NG importers their imports will fall off a cliff. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot!

Interior of our building, this morning. We slept in the car park. Our crazy good fortune began to sink in while taking this footage. Walked out with just a few scratches, kids untouched. Their mother was a hero.
PM’s up a little, everything else down? Even the dollar is down a smidge.
Can’t imagine that will last.
GDX bounced where it had to, pretty weak bounce though. Lose 15% in 3 days, gain back 1%. Maybe it will hold.
Looks like it’s formed a hammer if it holds. Means a sign of a reversal or bottom but needs confirmation.
