BBC News: Reports that President Trump is to meet both Putin of Russia and Zelensky of the Ukraine.
Lets Get Real:

The Russians could be playing Trump again, does the Trump Oval get that, will Putin agree to a ceasfire, on what conditions, will any conditions be a negative consequences for the Ukraine on the ground. TIME will TELL.
Guardian: Reports " Trump hails ‘great progress’ after Witkoff meets Putin for talks on Ukraine....US president calls meeting ‘highly productive’ amid unconfirmed reports on halt to long-range strikes "
Lets Get Real:
Good talks in White House talking point, but the secondary sanctions will still go in to place on Friday, as far as we know, the article states that there might be a deal to halt long range strikes, the truth will be in the pudding. Thus far Putin's Kremlin has played Trump like a fool, it could be that Trump is praising the talks while still keeping the sanctions on board, thus his secondary sanctions in India. Of course Trump could fold and allow himself to be played, and not place the extreme secondary sanctions on Russia, the US Senate Bill is on the extreme side, we shall see on Friday.
Sky News: Reports in its 9.59am post that US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff has meet with President Putin before the deadline set by President Trump.
Lets Get Real:
The deadline for a Ceasefire in the Ukraine is this Friday, the question is will Putin play Trump again, agree to a deal then break it and will Trump be tough with Putin, POTUS really wants that nuclear peace prize, the Nobel Committee gave it to Obama for doing NOTHING, just getting elected President. Interesting hours and days ahead.
BBC News: Reports that Bill and Hillary Clinton have been subpoenaed by the US Congress, the Congress are investigating Jeffrey Epstien, the late sex trafficker.
Lets Get Real:
The Republicans have been after the Clinton's and their connection to Epstien for years. The former President has confirmed that he flew a few times on Epstien private plane, but has said he never visited his infamous private Island. Thus we have Clinton and Trump and their contacts with a sex trafficker in the frame, who next?
Sky News: Reports " Netanyahu to instruct Israeli military on next steps in Gaza after ceasefire talks collapse...Mr Netanyahu is believed to be leaning towards expanding the offensive in Gaza and seizing the entire enclave, according to Israel's Channel 12, which cited an official from his office. "
Lets Get Real:
This blog is a firm supporter of Israel, and support this move to end the War, win the WAR by winning, did the Allies pause after Hitler DIED, no, this WAR can only have one end, the victory for Israel after 7th of October, and the return of the Hostages that are still alive. Israel must shown that when it attacks it will strikes back hard and wins. Israel is the sole DEMORCRACY in the Middle East, the reason for the full taking of Gaza might be political, to keep the Israeli PM in power, but both political and Military secure the same result, a secure Israel, not under threat from enemies in the region. This winning in Gaza might not be a popular view, but it is the right stand to take.
The Hill: Reports " Trump on Sydney Sweeney controversy: If she’s Republican ‘I think her ad is fantastic’ "
Lets Get Real:
This is the Advert of the year, this blog has heard more about it that actually seen it, Ms Sweeney is the "IT Girl " of Hollywood at the moment, she has great Genes and looks good in denim, and it has come out that she is a registered Republican, that is catnip for Trump and Republicans. CNN did a segment that allowed the commentators to make out that the advert is racist, would they have said that if it was an ethnic actress? This blog on whole keeps out of the cultural wars, but this silly reaction by Democrats and Liberals explains why Democrats are even less popular than Republicans. This blog takes its hat off to Ms Sweeney, she is rather a good actor it must be said, you would get on your donkey to charge a Windmill for her, I guess beauty has its costs.
BBC News: Reports that Russia is backtracking on comments by a former Russian President that lead President Trump to move nuclear subs.
Lets Get Real:
The Russians are backtracking, they are making it clear that Putin runs Russian Foreign policy, not the former President, they must afraid of Trump for some reason, also Trump's Special Envoy for crisis's Steve Witkoff is visiting Russia this week, before the sanctions deadline on the Ukraine, let's see what happens.
BBC News Reports that the Ukraine has hit a big Russian Oil Depo on the Russian Black Sea.
Lets Get Real:
The US has to pull its finger out and end this WAR, this Trump's Woodrow Wilson moment, Wilson who had kept the US our of WW1 in till 1917, had enough by 1917, also the German threat from Mexico pushed Wilson to act. Thus Trump must use secondary taxes on Countries buying Russian oil, he must close down the Russian economy, he has to be brave and take the fight to Moscow. END this endless WAR.
BBC News Reports that President Trump has moved US Nuclear subs after threatening comments by the former Russian President.
Lets Get Real:
The former President is known for his threatening nuclear language, its unusual for the US to react, it must be seen as a real THREAT, or Trump wants a political diversion from home problems. THIS could be an overnight story that goes away by the morning.
CNN - Politics: Reports former VP Harris is to write book on her failed campaign in 2024.
Lets Get Real:
The article notes that VP Harris will not run for Governor of California in 2026, thus it allows her to run again 2028, when Trump term comes to a near end with the Presidential Election in November. This time there will be a real challenge for the Nomination, and Harris will be seen as a LOSER, after losing to Trump in 2024. One can bet that Trump whoever he supports on the Republican side, will try and make her a two time LOSER.
BBC News: Reports in its 4.50pm post that the UK will recognise a Palestinian State in September in less Israel agrees to its demands.
Lets Get Real:
This is pure blackmail by Sir Keir, he has no real backbone, he falls in line with his rabble of MPs in the House of Commons, who have seen him U - Turn under pressure. NO wonder he took the picture of Lady T down, she would not have been impressed with him. Anyway all that matters in this case is what Daddy says, that being President Trump.
The Hill: Reports " Trump signals break with Netanyahu on Gaza hunger crisis "
Lets Get Real:
The President was with Sir Keir Starmer when he made his comments about Israel, POTUS is lead by the last person who spoke to him. Trump is very mercurial and can change his mind is a second. Once Trump is back home in the White House expect the Israeli Lobby to lobby him to support Israel and not to be swayed by Europe or its leaders. Let this blog be clear, the people of Gaza are starving, and since Israel now controls Gaza it is up to them to feed and water the people. One only has to see the archive of the Warsaw Ghetto of how Nazi Germany treated Jews in Poland, to know that Israel has learned nothing from its past, it is creating enemies for the future. Humans do not learn from history.
BBC News: Reports " Putin must agree Ukraine ceasefire in 10 or 12 days, says Trump "
Lets Get Real:
Trump is tired of carrying the Putin weight, he has more home scandals to deal with, thus its easier to go after Russia and Putin. The Kremlin has wasted its chance to get Trump fully on board, Putin wants the old days of the two powers shorting out problems, those days are gone, Russia is no longer a Super Power, the USSR is gone, even the Russian Empire fell in 1917. Trump should go tough on Putin and Russia, that will divert attention from his home scandals. In fact what Trump needs is for Russia to miss read the situation and attack a NATO member, thus Article 5 would come in to force, ALL FOR ONE, etc. One has to believe that Putin is not that mad or reckless.
Sky News: Reports in its 3.25pm post thar President Trump has dismissed the French call for a Palestinian State.
Lets Get Real:
The French or the UK does not matter, its Daddy view that rules, in this case its Trump Oval. The Trump Oval leads the West, its the only super power left, Russia is irrant on the World Stage. The House of Commons in the UK can shout as much as it wants, this will not change a thing, and that goes for the UK's FCO, who hate Israel. AND the UK Government wants to change the voting from 18 to 16, the lunatics are running the asylum.
The Hill: Reports " Tulsi Gabbard details Obama-related intel findings at White House press briefing "
Lets Get Real:
The theory mad MAGA has reached out of the White House to target President Obama and his handling of the 2016 election. There is tradition of former Presidents staying out of the way of their Successors in the Oval Office, Reagan never mentioned Jimmy Carter by name in his eight years in the White House, it was always the previous Administration. Whatever you think of the former President they had class on the whole to stay out in the wings, well Carter sometimes broke that rule, that is why he was never popular with the successors. President Obama was never my favourite President, that will always be the Gipper, and he left office with a good 58% in the Gallup poll for job approval, Reagan after 8 years had 63% and the old hound dog, Bill Clinton was on 66%. The Gipper was happy, his VP become President, no one in modern memory had that happened, with the exception of assassination and resignation, and it has not happened since. One has to lift one's hat to Obama, he acted with style and class and just released a statement. The left wing media are his troops and those on the World wide Web.
BBC News: Reports that the US House has closes early to prevent a vote on releasing the Epstien Files.
Lets Get Real:
Trump rode his campaign on conspiracy theories, Now they have come back to bite. As this blog has been very clear it has no time for Trump, he lies as he breaths, on the other hand there is no evidence that he was client of Epstien, friend yes, thus it becomes a real political matter when the US House has to closed down to prevent a vote on the Files. CNN and Democrats are playing games, as would Republicans if the shoe was on them. Vice President Vance might become President Vance, if there are Real Revelations ahead.
Sky News: Reports that the Trump Administration is to release the Files on the assassination of Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
Lets Get Real:
These files should never be released, as if previous reporting, the Files contain allegations that Dr King had affairs, so did JFK, but Dr King was hero to African Americans and his fight for civil rights in 1964 and for voting rights in 1965. These having nothing to do with his personal life. The US needs its heroes, JFK's affairs did not help with his political reputation later, some heroes have to be protected, thus case with Dr King. This is a diversion by the Trump Administration.
BBC News Reports 2.25pm post that the UK and other Countries are calling for a Ceasefire in Gaza.
Lets Get Real:
The one country not calling for an immediate ceasefire is the one Country that counts, that is the US under President Trump. The Trump Oval has shown that it has power over the Jerusalem Government, when Trump had Israel stop bombing Iran, the Bald Eagle has not move its position of supporting Israel. The UK and the rest of the World has little influence over Israel, the UK FCO hates Israel as does the US State Department, and Israel knows that fact.
Sky News: Reports on in its 7.49am post that a fragile ceasefire is in effect in Southern Syria.
Lets Get Real:
Thus far the ceasefire is very fragile and there are still deaths between the fractions, Druze and Bedoui minorities. The Israeli IDF has stopped bombing and latest reports is sending medical supplies to the Druze minority, lets see how long that lasts, the US has to keep eye on Syria. The Middle East is always a spark away from WAR.
BBC News Reports in its 2.46pm post that the IDF has hit the Syrian Presidential Palace.
Lets Get Real:
This latest fighting in the Middle East is due to the fighting between the minority Druze forces and Bedouin tribes in Suwayda, the new Syrian Regime has attacked Druze forces, the Druzes are a minority in Israel, the stated goal of the Israeli Government is to defend its Druze Israeli citizens and to stop Syria becoming another Iran, it does not want an Islamic State on its border. Thus the attacks on the Syrian Ministry of Defence and the Presidential Palace today.
Daily Mail: Reports that President Trump does a u - turn on bombing Moscow with long range missiles.
Lets Get Real:
This is POTUS being mercurial, one minute he wants the Ukraine to bomb Moscow and St Petersburg, then he sees a leak of the idea and backtracks, no wonder the Kyiv can not trust him, thar goes for NATO Allies. The Kremlin must be laughing at this foolish and weak President! He is no JFK or Reagan, great Presidents.
CNN: Reports " Trump hasn’t ruled out funneling longer-range missiles to Ukraine "
Lets Get Real:
It is reported in the article that President Trump asked if the Ukraine could hit Moscow and St Petersburg with new long range missiles. The Trump Oval wants to the end the War in the Ukraine and quickly, Trump wants that Nobel Peace Prize, he is really anti WAR, who knew that the American people were electing a DOVE to the Oval Office in 2016 and 2024.
BBC News: Reports that President Trump has promised 100% Tariffs on Russia if it does not agree peace talks with the Ukraine in 50 Days.
Lets Get Real:
The whole WORLD knows how mercurial Trump is, will he keep to his word and tax Putin and Russia. That is a long time for Russia to achieve a lot on the ground in the Ukraine. The sending of Patriot Missiles is good, Kyiv needs a lot of them, Putin is hungry for the Ukraine, the War is estimated to have cost Russia over a million men, North Korea has sent troops, at some point the Ukraine will need more troops, this is an endless WAR.
BBC News: Reports that President Trump has stated that he will send the Patriot Defence systems through NATO to the Ukraine.
Lets Get Real:
This will get the attention of Putin's Kremlin, the more that Trump has been critical of Putin, te more revenge attacks there are on Ukraine. The Trump Administration is full appeasers or America First supporters, so even Trump needs to keep a weary eye on them, they could drop the ball on the Ukraine and create critical problems for Trump.
Sky News: Reports in its 6.05am post that President Trump will have a major statement on Russia Monday.
Lets Get Real:
The post suggests that Trump will impose tough sanctions on Russia. The Trump lap dog has grow some sharp teeth and is coming after Russia for its WAR in the Ukraine. About time
BBC News: Reports that 728 drone attacks and 13 missile attacks have hit the Ukraine.

Every time POTUS verbally attacks Putin, the Kremlin does a heavy attack on Ukraine, Putin is a man/child, he has pretensions of being Great, his history is wrong and all over place, he wants the Russian Empire back, that is never going to happen, more likely lead to WW3
BBC News: Reports in its 11pm post on the process that lead the Republican House to pass Trump's Big Beautiful Bill.
Lets Get Real:
The Conservative financial hawks folded in their resistance to the Trump domestic agenda in the House. The Republicans have been clever, the tax cuts come first, the welfare cuts come in 2028, therefore the Democrats will run against tax cuts in the 2026 Mid Terms. The Democrats need a new leader for 2028.
CNN: Reports thar US Senate has passed Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, by the tie breaking vote of the Vice - President.
Lets Get Real:
Thus it moves to the House, it must pass unchanged to become law. Any changes and the bill goes back to the Senate. The Trump Oval will have to make sure that Conservative hawks do not sink the Bill. THEY should sink it, the bill trillions to the US National Debt and cuts welfare to much. Politics is politics, one expects the House to pass the bill under pressure from Trump. There is 2026 Mid Terms to come, tax cuts are always good to run on.
BBC News: Reports on the grind in the US Senate to pass the Big Beautiful Bill of Trump's 2nd term agenda.
Lets Get Real:
The Republicans control all three branches of Government, in the House its by a few Seats, more of a majority in the Senate. The BBB will confirm the Trump tax cuts of his first term and cut welfare, the Democrats are fighting this with simple point that 3 trillion will be added to the National Debt. This should be a red line to real Conservatives, but not Trump's Republicans, the US voters will see if he Trump can master Congress like FDR, LBJ, Reagan, Clinton, Bush 43, Obama, even the semi senile Biden. Developing!
BBC News: Reports that the US Supreme Court has given more authority to Presidential orders than individual Judges.
Lets Get Real:
The left who see liberal Judges as a way to stop POTUS, are furious, there is no Democratic leader, Biden is seen as senile, while Obama keeps his head down, VP Harris is thinking of running for California Governor in 2026. TRUMP is not King, but he is close, Democrats need to wake up and find a new leader for 2026 and 2028.
Guardian: Reports that President Trump has committed US support for Collective Security of NATO.
Lets Get Real:
This will make Europe happy, it should not, Trump can change his mind in a second, Spain has irked him by not agreeing to a 5% increase in defence spending, Trump in his own eyes is the Sun Kimg in his political universe, everyone is lesser, he loves praise, he needs it to breathe. Europe has to defend the Ukraine from Russia, it can't count on the US, POTUS is the lap dog of Putin of Russia.
Sky News: Reports in its 9.16 pm post that American Intelligence suggests that the US did completely destroy Iran's nuclear facilities with its bombing.
Lets Get Real:
If this assessment is correct then it will cause POTUS to be very angry about the assessment and that it was leaked to the Liberal CNN, who he called scum this morning. Mossad, Israel Intelligence will find out first, this blog would go with its assessment, if they find that Iran can still make Nukes, then Israel will strike again, no matter what Trump says or does.
Guardian: Reports in its 7.42pm post that President Trump has cast doubt on the US supporting members of NATO if they are attacked. POTUS stated that there are many definitions of Article 5.
Lets Get Real:
Trump is pro himself in the first instance and then pro Putin. ONE has to hope that a NATO member is not invaded by Putin's Russia in the next few years that Trump is President. EUROPE has to get its ACT together and spend 5% of its GDP on Defence, a war could arrive in a few years, the Russian Bear is on the lose in the Ukraine, it could come for Poland or the Baltic States or both, BEWARE THE BEAR.
BBC News: Reports in its 11.57am post that POTUS has told Israel not to react to Iran's breaking of the CEASFIRE.
Lets Get Real:
There is a ceasefire, it can expected that both Iran and Israel will throw a few missiles at each, both want the final missile sent, both have to keep their bases happy, it's a lot easier in a tyranny, less so in a democracy. NOW will cover the NATO Summit and the Ukraine.
Update 1:
POTUS is visible frustrated at the violation of the ceasefire, he swore on TV, that will be replayed on TV. CNN and MSNBC also got it in the neck!!
Update 2:
Trump states that Israeli planes will return home without bombing Iran. Thus keeping the CEASFIRE in place.
BBC News: Reports in its 11.13pm post that Israel and Iran have agreed to total Ceasefire.
Lets Get Real:
If this is true, then its a win for Trump47 and for Israel, Tehran gets to keep its theocracy Regime without its nuclear ambitions, the CIA has to keep an eye on Tehran, they might try to rebuild its nuclear facilities over time. The Middle East Crisis point is over for now, back to the Ukraine.
Daily Mail: Reports in its 8.58pm post that POTUS has thanked Iran for its warning of an attack on Qatar.
Lets Get Real:
This was a show that Iran had tried to answer the US attacks. Thus the reports that Israel wants to end the War in a few days, thus a return to Diplomacy. THE Tehran Regime should return to Diplomacy and make deal with Israel and the US, give up its nuclear ambitions and facilities, allow the UN's nuclear watchdog access to ALL government buildings. The US should be wary in case Iran cheats!
Sky News: Reports in its 5.58pm post that Iran has targeted Qatar and Iraq US bases in the Middle East as a reaction to US bombing.
Lets Get Real:

BBC News reports that Israel has sent a message to Iran that it wants to end this WAR by the weekend.
BBC News Reports in its 9.23am post that POTUS has bought up the idea of Regime Change in Iran.
Lets Get Real:
As the article notes Trump has gone further that others in the Trump Administstion in suggesting Regime Change, he came up with MIGA, Make Iran Great Again by getting rid of the theocracy, Trump himself has gone against his own rhetoric on the Campain Trail, he opposes Forever Wars, such as Afghanistan and Iraq. One hopes that Trump know has some respect for Bush 43, Obama if not Biden. One hopes that the Iranian people hear his call for change.
Guardian: Reports in its 10.30am post that Israel has hit the Iranian Fordow nuclear facilitie after the Weekend bombing by the US.
Lets Get Real:
The Israeli Air Force is making sure that the US bombing did the job. It will take time for independent verification of effect of the bombing at Fordow nuclear facilitie, as the World awaits the Tehran retaliation to the US bombing. IF Tehran was smart it will DO NOTHING, Iran cannot win against the US.
Sky News: Reports in its 7.40pm post that John Bolton one of Trump45 NSA and frequent critic has supported the bombing of Iran and wants more.
Lets Get Real,
The bombing decision has created strange bedfellows, the extreme right of MAGA and left wing liberals who oppose the bombing and are critical of Trump47, if you have these groups in opposition then you must be doing something right. JOHN BOLTON a critic of his former boss, shows the division with MAGA, a rare time when Trump has been Presidential in either terms.

BBC News: Reports that US President Donzld Trump has given Iran to surrender.
Lets Get Real:

Sky News: Reports in its 8.03am post that an Iranian missile hit a Southern hospital in Israel.
Lets Get Real:
From the TV footage the Iranian missile hit has done considerable damage, it hit a cancer ward, the patients had been removed the underground of the hospital.

The article states that overnight that Israel hit a Iranian nuclear reactor, the Jerusalem Government has to hit Iran harder.
BBC News: Reports in its 6.39pm post that Trump will decide his Iran policy after two weeks.
Lets Get Real:
Trump has bottled it over Iran, his political base is divided, between Isolation and hawkes. POTUS is waiting to see what happens in the Israeli- Iran War, the excuse for the delay is that there might be talks, in other words Trump wants to claim victory whatever happens, Trump is an appeaser of the first order, God help the US and Israel.
BBC News: Reports in its 3.03pm post that President Trump stated he has not decided on his actions when it comes Iran.
Lets Get Real:
Trump likes the drama, he likes leading the news, his political base is divided between isolation and hawkes. POTUS himself might have not made his mind up!! The Oval will want to be on the winning side, thus it is a matter of waiting!
Guardian: Reports in its 12pm post thar the Supreme Leader of Iran has stated Iran will not surrender.
Lets Get Real:
This has to be a bluff by the so called Supreme Leader, if the US goes in and takes out the Iranian nuclear facilities, and then Regimes foundations, it will all be over for the Regime. The West needs the people of Iran to overthrow the Regime, its evil and one of the worst Regimes in the history of the Middle East.
Sky News: Reports in its 5.28pm post that President Trump is calling for Iran to declare Unconditional Surrender.
Lets Get Real:
Trump can see that Israel is winning and wants to be on the same page. If he pulls this off, he will be President that took down the Iranian Regime. That is a legacy moment, will Trump attack the Iranian nuclear facilities, probly yes, just to finish the WAR. History has come calling for Trump47.
Update:
Trump is considering options on attacking Iran after his meeting in the Situation Room.

Lets Get Real:
POTUS is looking for something better than a ceasefire, does he want Iran to surrender, will they give up their Nukes ambition for years, how do you verify that, a tough deal, a deal that makes sure Iran cannot lie about!! The President is having a meeting in the Situation Room on his return from the G7, developing story..
Sky News: Reports in its 10.40pm that Israel is on ALERT for a strike by Iran.

IRAN promises to attack Israel through the night, if the Regime wants to survive it must get the people of Iran to support it, showing weakness will force the Regime from power, Israel must totally defeat the theocracy, Jerusalem cannot allow Tehran to have the bomb.
BBC News; Reports in its 5.11pm post that Israel has hit Iranian TV.
Lets Get Real:
The Jerusalem Government is telling people to leave Tehran! This attack on the TV station is an element of regime change, it wants people to rebel against the Govenment, thus hitting Regimes PR. The Israeli Government is on a winning streak, it should follow through, take OUT the Regime and free the people.
Guardian: Reports that President Trump said NO to an Israeli plan to kill the Iranian leader.
Lets Get Real:
It is against US law for an American President to order such a hit, it goes back President Ford, after the murky history of the CIA came out and the plots against Castro in the 1960s. The Israeli Government is going for regime change, they have taken out military Commanders, 20 in all, and nuclear Scientists, today they took out the head and deputy in charge of Iranian intelligence. The Tehran Regime is evil, the sooner it ends the better for the World.
Sky News: Reports in its 4.10pm post that explosions have been heard in Tehran.
Lets Get Real:
The Government in Jerusalem is going for Regime change in Iran, it has been decades in coming, the 1979 Revolution has been a disaster for Iran and the World, a terror theocracy that kills without thought, a Regime that wants to go nuclear. There is no peaceful way to end the Tehran Regime, Iraq, Libya, and Syria shows what happens to tyrants.
Sky News: Reports in its 8am post that Iran has threatened US bases, due to its Defence of Israel in the present crisis
Lets Get Real:
The fact that Iran has threatened the US, UK and France shows that the Israeli strikes have undermined the the Regime, also the targeted assassinations of military leaders and nuclear Scientists , places extra pressure on the Regime, who is next?, the Regime has lost Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, they were meant to stop Israel taking such action. The HOURS ahead will be interesting.
BBC News: Reports in its 8pm post that Iran has confirmed Cruise Missile attacks on Israel.
Lets Get Real:
The drone attacks were a flash in the pan, Sky News reports that a third Cruise Missile attack is coming to Israel, the Israeli Missile Defences are good, they have not asked for help from the Western Allies. IF the Allies are not in the room, they lack influence with Israel.
Update 1:
Thus the US has confirmed that it is helping Israel in its Defence.
Update 2:
78 people killed in Israeli strikes and 320 injured. The Israeli strikes took out Iranian Commanders and nuclear Scientists. Thus the hap hazard reaction by Tehran. Who is running the show in Tehran. The Regime states that those killed have been replaced, that takes time.
Update 3:
34 people injured in Israel after Iranian attack. Thus far.
Sky News: Reports in its 12.31pm post that President Trump called the Israeli attacks on Iran excellent.
Lets Get Real:
POTUS likes to be on the winning side, at this moment it's Israel, also he wants to carry on with talks with Iran. One hopes that Oval understands that the Trump base is full of Republicans who support Israel and loath Iran since 1979, the year it became a theocracy, There is time for talks and a time for war, you go for maximum win, losing is not an option.
Guardian: Reports in its 10.41am post that Iran has stated that Israel has declared WAR.
Lets Get Real:
The Iranian reaction has been feeble or no reaction, there were Reports that Iran had launched a 100 Drones towards Israel, as of now nothing, either Iran's defences are great or Tehran might be still hoping that the US will place pressure on Israel to back off. The Trump Oval has to be careful, the Trump base is full of Israeli supporters, they expect when push comes to shove, that Trump will support Israel.
BBC News: Reports in its 1.21am post that Israel has targeted Iran's nuclear facilities and also Tehran the Capital was hit.
Lets Get Real:
What will Iran do in reaction, its terrorists groups satellites will hit Israel and the US. The Government in Jerusalem has shown that it will take action even if the US says No. The days ahead will be interesting and destructive in the Middle East. Developing story.
.
CNN: Reports that President Trump has warned thar Israel could hit Iran and lead to a massive conflict in the area.
Lets Get Real:
Trump likes to run the news cycle, also pressure on Iran to do a good deal that will pass muster with the Israeli Mossad and the Israeli Government, they will want real guarantees that the deal is good, not just good PR for Trump. Days ahead will be interesting! The Republicans on the Hill want to make sure that Trump is not appeasing Tehran, as he has done with Russia.
BBC News: Reports that a UN nuclear watchdog has found that Iran is not in compliance with previous agreement.
Lets Get Real:
This could be the trigger for Israel to take action, Jerusalem will not allow Iran to have nuclear weapons, whatever the Trump Oval might think, you never know with Trump, he might join with Israel on attack on Iran, it would make him popular in the US, no love lost between the US and Iran, on the other hand he is desperate for the Nobel Peace Price, we shall see!! There are talks between Iran and US on the weekend, Diplomacy might win through, as Churchill said talks are better than war.
Sky News: Reports Israel could attack Iran within days without US support.
Lets Get Real:
Something is up, the US is removing US diplomats from the Middle East, as the article states a UN watchdog has found Iran is not in compliance for the first time in 20 years. There is a meeting on the weekend between the US and Iran, doubts any action before that, Iran still has time to deal, doubt Israel will take action alone, you never know with Trump47.
Sky News: Reports in its 8am post that the Trump Adminstration is to cut military aid to the Ukraine.
Lets Get Real:
This news will be greeted with joy in Moscow, its Appeasement of the first order, very much like Munich 1938, well shall see if the Defence Secretary is overruled by either Trump47 or Reagan Republicans in Congress. This will give Democrsts an issue to attack Trump47 and Republicans in Congress. It will be interesting to see if candidates for 2028 take up the issue.
Guardian: Reports in its 4.58pm post that the US Defence Secretary has stated before Congress, thar the US military will stay in LA for 60 Days.
Lets Get Real:
This is what Trump and his base want, troops on the ground in Blue States, and the Bluest State is California, home of the Liberal media on the West Coast. The US in 2024 voted for Trump to expel illegal immigrants from the US, thus this move by Trump. Except more protest in Blue States, more US military on the ground, the political battle for 2028 has started.
Guardian: Reports in its 8.58pm post that LA can expect the deployment of 700 Marines.
Lets Get Real:
This appeals to the Trump base of support and puts the Democrats behind the 8th ball. They will need to show that they do not support those that commit crimes, but support peaceful protests, not an easy path to travel. POTUS will exploit any violence to justify the placing of troops on the streets and keeping them there. The hours ahead will be an interesting lecture on Civics in the US.
Sky News: Reports in its 9.48am post that 479 Drones were launched against the Ukraine by Russia, the biggest of the War.
Lets Get Real:
This could be the reaction to the Ukraine using Drones to attack Russian military bases in Russia. This blog predicted such action over the last few days. ONE feels Trump is frustrated and bored by the issue, he could not solve the war in 24 hours of getting elected, Trump is not a details man, he just wants the headlines in the 24 news cycle. As long as Trump allows the Ukraine to buy military kit, then it has a chance against Putin's Russia.
BBC News: Reports in its 5.20am post that it is unlawful to Assembly in Downtown LA.
Lets Get Real:
This is what Trump47 wants, he wants illegal immigrants and their supporters to protest, any violence helps Trump47, he can be the tough guy, he wants to send in the Army, he has the Marines on ALERT already, peaceful protest is guaranteed by US law, violence only helps Trump47, this blog is a firm law and order blog, Respect the National Guard or get arrested, and help Trump47.
Sky News Reports in its 5.44pm post, that President Trump has had a call with President Putin of Russia, Putin stated that Russia will respond the drone attacks by the Ukraine.
Lets Get Real:
The Ukraine should expect a heavy drone and Missile attack, quite severe, one doubts that Putin would use a NUKE, that could lead to WW3, he is of course quite mad, thus the War, he could drop one tactical NUKE on Kyiv, to scare the World, one has great reservations that he would do that, that would force NATO to act, winds do not recognise State Borders, thus Poland and Russia would be contaminated by radiation. An endless War!
BBC News: Reports that the Crimea Bridge that connects occupied Ukrainian land to Russia has been hit by explosions.
Lets Get Real:
This will hurt Putin, he personally drove the first lorry over when opened, taken with the drone strikes on his bomber fleet, it is a clear message that the Ukraine will not yield to the tyranny of Putin and his Russian raping thugs. The Trump Oval has been very quiet these last few hours, Trump likes to lead the news cycle, what will he say, Ukraine has a few cards yet to play.
BBC News: Reports that Labour Government will spend billions to put the UK on a WAR footing against Russia. There will be 12 nuclear powered Subs and new mutions factories.
Lets Get Real:
The problem with Labour Government is show me the money, already the Government is backtracking on how much money it will spend on Defence, the Labour left will not be happy, all they care is about welfare, and will the Russians or China be that impressed, also the UK has to give financial aid to the Ukraine, if Trump cannot be trusted with the defence of the West.
CNN: Reports that Tehran is disappointed with the US plan, allowing Iran to have nuclear material but in combination with other powers in the region.
Lets Get Real:
This looks like the Trump Oval is appeasing Tehran, they having nuclear material as the article states will make US Hawkes deeply mad and not trust Trump, does Trump stand up against any rogue regime. Its the same with Russia, if you're a tyrant or a theocracy then Trump appeases you, Reagan will be turning in his grave, what happened to Reagan's Republicans. A nuclear armed Iran cannot happen, Tehran cannot be trusted, what will Israel think? The Mossad should get the latest update on Tehran's nuclear facilities and show them to the Israeli PM and the US President, talks yes but not APPEASEMENT.
Sky News: Reports that Putin's Kremlin is being very quiet about Ukraine's attack on Russian bases in Russia, as far as Siberia.
Lets Get Real:
Russia has ever reason to be quiet, the attack has been called Russia's Pearl Harbour, let's see the reaction, as stated in previous post, there have been calls for Nukes to be used on the Ukraine, this would be a wild over reaction, but then again the West needs to send a message to Putin, a use of a NUKE would change the War, it could lead WW3. The West and the Ukraine awaits a reaction from Putin.
Daily Mail: Reports on calls in Russia for Putin to drop the BOMB on the Ukraine after its strikes on the Russian bomber fleet.
Lets Get Real:
This won't happen, famous last words, even Putin knows this would be a wild overacting, he would lose Trump and could lead to WW3. Thus the Russians have the BOMB, but cannot use it, they have estimated to have lost a million soldiers in the Ukraine WAR, Putin has control of the Media in Russia, how long will the people support this murderous Regime in Moscow, it must fall.
BBC News Reports in its 1.35pm post on a massive Ukrainian drone and Missile strike on 40 Russian Bombers.
Lets Get Real:
This will uplift the mood in Kyiv, a massive successful strike on Russia, its a kick in the backside for both Putin and Trump, how will Russia react, more drone strikes one assumes on the innocent people of the Ukraine, it will show that Ukraine has some cards it can play, thus making Trump WRONG that the Ukraine had no cards to play. One hopes Trump gives more military aid to the Ukraine, and stops being the lapdog of Putin.
Sky News; Reports that President Trump has given Russia 2 weeks to get ceasefire talks started with the Ukraine.
Lets Get Real:
This Trump fudging the issue, how many times has he given Russia the benefit of the doubt, he is never completely critical of Putin, he seem more than ready to be critical of President Zelensky of the Ukraine, his hatred of Zelensky goes back to his impeachment in the 1st term. POTUS must blame Zelensky for his loss in 2020. Trump can't see his own failures, the greatest enemy of Trump is Trump.
