Trump has plenty of fuel. Z and his cheap shots are gonna stick it to themselves not only see retribution but make more enemies around the world.
That’s a lot

France coming in?
The Hormuz Letter
@HormuzLetter
BREAKING: France will deploy soldiers, radars and air defence systems to Saudi Arabia to protect the oil export facilities at Yanbu from Houthi attacks, with Macron not ruling out a French Air Force fighter deployment as well.
“We are going to send military assets to protect the oil facilities at Yanbu in Saudi Arabia,” Macron says.
It comes two weeks after Trump refused MBS’s requests for US strikes on the Houthis, and five days after Trump called off strikes with bombs already loaded on US warplanes.
Zelensky is sticking it to Trump

BREAKING: Ukrainian drones have just struck Russia’s Perm oil refinery this morning, one of the country’s largest and one of six refineries that together produce about half of Russia’s diesel, with the refinery now on fire.
This comes as the US, the world’s largest diesel exporter, is preparing a 90-day export ban that Trump is inclined to announce by the end of the week. Russia, the second largest, already halted theirs.

Re Oil etc
To be fair the oil was suspected, it had yet to be found…….now another story ….we have to spend on all our new rapists.

Re Falklands
i believe we have a small force down there, but could never replicate what Maggie did, so effectively we can do squat .
That said the US may tell Milei to back off, as I always thought there was more to the Falklands than sheep, ie a safe base near Cape Horn.
65 weeks Av’s holding plus in AU’s case 61.8 % retracement, Ag and Plat hold @ 50 %
Then we get the Retracement holds
goldie, I don’t think nukes would do it.
I believe they are rather delicate things, whereas earthquake bombs muscle their way through a hundred feet or two of mountain and then detonate. I don’t think a nuclear mechanism could withstand the impact. A couple of small nukes might make the place uninhabitable, though. Sort of.

Have sent message to Host to see what is going wrong…and have emailed you….apologies

Dollar, rates and oil giving some back. SM getting a little traction.
How big and for how long is anyone’s guess.

Pickaxe Mountain has a height of 1,608 meters (about 5,276 feet) above sea level.

They are wondering what kind of bomb could go deep enough for that pick ax mountain to reach it is why they’re thinking about nukes right. I don’t even know if a nuke could reach that far. Isn’t it like 200 feet deep. I don’t think a smaller one world work. If it’s under the mountain it could be deeper than 200 ft from the top of the mountain. It seems Iran may have already thought of that. Unless they want to blow up and radiate the whole mid east. Are they that daft to even think about it?
And the laundry fire!
If they do, I hope a brisk ESE wind takes the magic dust back to Israel.
ferrett
I thought that was plumbing problems … 🙂
I think it unlikely that we’d use nukes. Now the Israelis?
ipso, well, you nearly lost the Gerald R Ford.
And it was out of action for a while. But you’re right about the land bases. They are fairly obsolete too, compared to mobile missile launchers which cost peanuts and will have disappeared by the time retribution arrives. And it is a huge country with many desolate areas, ideal for hiding missiles and launchers. So mini-nukes won’t eliminate much apart from population – and then you have the fall-out wafting wherever the wind takes it.
But, generals are always fighting the last war. It’s the people that have to “make do” that come up with new ideas.

They’re trying to use interest rates to revive it which will start to negatively effect the economy and throw us in stagflation. I don’t know if it will get that high but it ” the dollar,” has a gap at 105 1/2.

Right, useless and suspected money launderers.

I was thinking that in this Iran war we are lucky to have the carriers. All of our nearby military bases have successfully attacked by ballistic missiles and drones. At least the carriers were alternate platforms to launch attacks. No carriers were lost in the war and I don’t know if any were heavily damaged or not!
You’re right though with advent of modern hypersonic missiles the days of the carrier are numbered.

“What kind of people working there” Incompetent or more likely paid traitors.

GB’s military has fallen on sad days! The Brits need to spend that money on welcoming new immigrants you know!
Then to be walking that line … are you in the war or not. I don’t see how they think they are invincible. Maybe they think their nuclear shield will protect them. Maybe it will. The elites are playing craps with humanity.
ipso 10;10?
side tracked for a minute. I’m sure there is and jeopardizing the safety of our military pilots is indefensible. Heads should roll. It’s only being down played by the Pentagon. What kind of people do they have working for is there???
