Trump threatens Tehran Bridges and Power Plants - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 2.03pm post the following, " Trump threatens to hit bridges and power plants in Iran "

Let's Get Real:

This is a good move by Trump, put Tehran on notice if they shoot at any tankers in the Strait of Hormuz then Trump will take out civic infrastructure in Tehran.  This could force the people out on the streets, no power, no water, no bridges, make them more afraid of the US than their own EVIL REGIME, and bring down the theocracy in Iran, Trump could save future lives in the region and around the World.

Iran's nuclear stockpile and Trump - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 4.47pm post the following, " Trump says US will hit reported uranium stockpile site 'pretty soon' "

Let's Get Real:

One of the principal reason for the WAR was to removes Iran's nuclear stockpile, if the Tehran Regime has moved it, then the US will have to send in the Bombers again, Trump should not have warned them, someone needs to explain operational security to Trump.  Time for action less talk! 

The cost of the US - Iran War - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 7.21pm post the following,  " War’s total cost could exceed $29bn for US "

Let's Get Real:

This is not a high number, Afghanistan and Iraq cost more in the end, Iran you can argue is more important, take out the cancer of the Middle East, take out the theocracy in Tehran and and save lives.  This is Trump's chance to make the history books, win and be successful.

More US STRIKES on IRAN - Update

Fox News:  Reports the following, " Trump orders fresh US strikes on Iran to weaken threats against Strait of Hormuz "

Let's Get Real:

The President has not listened for calls to have a pause, this is the right move by the Trump Oval.  The Trump Oval has to hammer Iran, force the Tehran Regime to talk or force it from power.  The Revolutionary Guard wants to fight on, the secular government wants talks, there are factions in Iran, Trump should force them in to talks.

John Healy New Chancellor - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 6.18pm post the following, " John Healey named chancellor "

Lets Get Real:

Thus this shows what a principled Resignation gets you, this blog thought that Healy would get his old job back as Defence Secretary when he was walking up 10 Downing Street.  This a plum of an appointment, but also means that Healey will have to find funds for Starmer's Defence plan, and make it stick to keep the Military in the MOD happy.  Also the new PM want to end rough sleeping, that is the best thing he could come up!  This will not work, because rough sleepers have various reasons for not going to shelters, they are on drugs or have dogs or other mental problems.  Our new PM the boy wonder thinks he can spend half his time in Manchester, the World does not wait for politicians to get their act together, what if Putin tries something to test the new PM and NATO.  The Civil Service will make sure he attends leaders Summits, he think he has free time, he cannot spend half his live on trains and cars going to Manchester.   This blog can see a crash in political fortunes to the boy wonder, he might have charisma, but will he be a good WAR LEADER, should Putin try something in 2030 before an expected UK ELECTION.  All political careers end in failure, you have to be very lucky for that not to happen, just ask Sir Keir Starmer.

10 Day Pause suggested in US - Iran War - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 12.34am post the following, " Mediators propose '10-day pause on strikes' "

This blog would not be surprised if Trump Oval goes for this pause, he has shown a yellow streak although the WAR, the Tehran will support it and then go back to hitting tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.  The Trump Oval would be foolish to go for this pause, it would allow Iran rest from the bombing, and they could hide their drones and missiles.  Thus kind readers of this blog should not be surprised if Trump starts his appeasement rhetoric again.  The US should be bombing the Iranian civic structures day and night, that means bombing bridges, power stations, airports, road, anything helps the Regime function.  A stop and go WAR does not help the US Military, it fact it causes frustration with the Oval Office.

PM Andy Burnham - Update

 BBC News: Reports that Andy Burnham has become Prime Minister today.

Let's Get Real:

Let's recall ALL PMs come in to OFFICE with hope, less that two years ago Sir Keir Starmer came in to OFFICE with Labour's second biggest majority.  The U turns, bad poll number and a disaster in the local elections did Sir Keir in, also he was disliked, the Sir Keir was seen as an robot with no charm, the new fellow Andy Burnham has charisma, let's see what his poll number are like after six months, if not good and Labour MPs see themselves out of a job then they have blood in the mouth, they got rid of the Robot, they will not shy about getting rid of the body wonder with charisma.  Politics is a brutal game, events, events can do a PM in, there is the WAR in the Ukraine and US v Iran in the Middle East.  The boy wonder should enjoy this time, it wont come again.  

US Soldier killed in Iraq - Update

Daily Mail: Reports the following, "  The US military has announced a third service member has been killed in the Middle East by an Iranian drone as tensions between the two countries continue to hit a peak. "

Let's Get Real:

As this blog suggested some time ago, Iran would take the WAR outside its borders.  Thus far it has been the Gulf States, Jordan, now it is a drone strike that was being defused in Iraq.  What if Tehran restarts the Iraq - Iran WAR, that would be nightmare for the Trump Oval.  The Trump Administration has to go all in when comes to the Iran War, win quickly and finish the job, before Iran acts and the Mid Terms.

Russia HITS Kyiv Hard - Update

Guardian: Reports " Russia pounds Kyiv for five hours in one of its biggest ballistic missile attacks "

Let's Get Real:

The Ukraine drone strikes on Russia and Crimea has been very effective, people are fighting for oil and the Crimea is in a state of Emergency.  Putin has to do something to divert attention from his failures, the meat grinder that is the Ukraine front for Russian Forces, the Ukraine attacks on oil depos has had the desired effect of waking up the Russian people to the fact that they have not won the Ukraine War and by this rate they will never, thus according to Western Intelligence Putin might attack Poland or the Baltic States to see how Trump Oval and NATO reacts, the UK will have a new PM, who is untested in international affairs, and wants to return the UK back to the 1970s.   The Andy Burnham might have failed before he has even started.   The Labour Party could be kicked from office in 2029 or 2030 General Election and we could have a REFORM Government.  

Two US Service Personnel killed and one missing after Iranian Attack - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " Two US troops killed and one missing after Iranian attack in Jordan "

Let's Get Real:

Thus far the US has lot 16 Service Personnel, the US Navy hit Iran again after the attacks on Jordan.  The US has to hit Iran hard, cut off power to the people of Iran, taken down bridges, cut off water, make the citizens of Iran more afraid of the US than their own evil regime.  The Trump Oval does not have all the time in the WORLD, the cost of oil is going up and then there is the US Mid Terms in November.  If the Democrats take the  House and Senate they could curtail US action in the Middle East, the Democratic Party of JFK and Bill Clinton has gone, the socialist left is trying to take over the Democratic Party as Trump took over the Republican Party.  Thus Trump has to move fast and the WAR by winning it for the US, delay will help the Tehran Regime and the left in the US.

New Strikes on Iran - Update

Guardian:  Reports the following, " US launches seventh night of Iran strikes as Hormuz conflict escalates "

Let's Get Real:

Iran suspends MOU - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 1.54pm post the following, " Iran has 'suspended its commitments' to preliminary agreement, official says " 

Let's Get Real:

Russia 's Amazon warehouses hit by Ukraine Drones - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " Eight people have been killed and 62 injured after Ukrainian drones struck two warehouses belonging to Russia's biggest online retailer, Wildberries, according top Russian officials.  "

Let's Get Real:

This is a good Tactical move by the Ukraine, make it difficult for the Russian government to get part for their drones, it is the company's fault for giving material to Russian drones, these drones and missiles hit KYIV and other Ukranian cities although the week, the Russians don't care about human lives, they have shown this in the Ukraine War.

Iran threatens more ATTACKS - Update

Sky News: Reports the following its 11:31am post the following, " Iran threatens 'more crushing' retaliation to US strikes "

Let's Get Real:

The Iranian Forces have been destroyed in the view of Trump Oval, land, sea and air.  Either Teran is lying or the Trump Oval, is living in his own WORLD.  Thus hard to be 100% certain at this point, Trump has been known to create his own truth, the Trump Oval has no Presidential Credibility, thus his speech last night on Election security was not carried by some of the networks.  A WIN in by Trump would force the news networks to cover the Oval Office.

US hits bridges, airport, railways - Update

BBC News: Reports " Iran accuses US of hitting civilian infrastructure "

Let's Get Real:

About time the US taking out civic infrastructure of Iran, the power stations should be next, get the people out demonstrating against the Regime in Tehran.  The US should place ground troops on Kharg Island and Special Forces in to Iran, take out the remaining leadership or get Mossad to the job, win at all costs.

Tehran CRITICAL of the US bombing - Update

Guardian reports in its 11.57am post the following, " Iran accuses US of 'barbaric attack' near children's cancer hospital "

Let's Get Real:

Is this even true, Tehran lies as it talks, it could get the Western media to be more critical of Trump, not that they need a reason.  The US Department of War has to be careful with targets, it does not want another school attack, the CIA should check targets, the US Navy has to hit harder, and the placing of US ground troops in Iran is next.

US finishes another strike on Iran - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 12.55pm post the following, " US military completes 90-minute wave of Iran strikes "

Let's Get Real:

The US should carry on this process, day and night bombing.  The Tehran Regime has to be taken down, the US should place ground troops in Kharg, turn off the tap to Iranian oil.  The people of Iran  should be back on the streets, the US should defend them from the air, the theocracy should be bought down, it will take US ground troops to win.

Trump makes serious on Iran - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " US President Donald Trump has threatened to strike Iran's bridges and power plants next week if the country does not return to talks."

Let's Get Real:

Trump replaces Strait of Hormuz TOLL, - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 4.16pm post the following, " Trump says US will take investment deals with Gulf states instead of fee for using strait "

Let's Get Real:

Another Trump u - turn, a good one for a change, you can't toll the Strait of Hormuz, that is what Tehran planned, one assumes the Gulf States were on the phone after Trump made the announcement on Truth Social.  Trump needs to win Iran, otherwise Iran will rule the Gulf States after the US Navy leaves the Region.

US hits Nuclear Facilitie Again - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 11.02am post the following, " US projectiles hit city close to Iranian nuclear facility, state media report " 

Let's Get Real:

Iran hits 2 tankers in the Strait of Hormuz- Update

BBC  News: Reports in its 6.34am post the following, " UAE says one killed in 'brazen' Iranian attacks on tankers in strait "

Let's Get Real:

This comes after another US strike on Iran, the Trump Oval has to finish what it started, that means no more stop and go attacks, there should morning and night attacks and the placing of troops on Kharg Island to take the oil from Iran.  The Tehran and appeasing media won't expect that, they all want talks, even if that means appeasing Iran.  Trump has to win this war he started.

Trump places new blockade on Iran - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 3.27pm post the following, " Trump says US reinstating blockade on Iranian ports  "

Let's Get Real:

This means the ceasefire is over, the blockade is the least bad option for Trump and it hurts Iran on the economic front and negates the US placing troops on Kharg Island.  The Trump Oval has to keep its nerve and keep the blockade going, he is charging 20% of the cargo as the US will secure the Strait of Hormuz from Iran.  Thus we shall if this works, one doubts that Trump can keep to this course.

Tanker Decline in Strait of Hormuz - Update

Guardian: Reports the following in its 11.02am post, " Traffic through strait of Hormuz plummets after US-Iran strikes "

Let's Get Real:

This can't go on, it will effect the Western economy sooner or later.  Tehran has shown its word cannot be trusted, it lies as it talks, the are playing a crafty game of waiting out Trump and the US Navy.   The Mid Terms are coming and the Democrats should win the House of Representatives, then we have two years of Trump investigations and Impeachment, followed by the 2028 Presidential cycle.

Iran BROKE new Deal with Trump

Sky News: Reports in its 2.44pm post the following, " Donald Trump has claimed the US and Iran agreed a deal yesterday, but Iran broke the agreement "within an hour" when it fired a drone at a ship. "

Let's Get Real:

The Tehran Regime lies or as postulated there are rival factions in Iran, the dovish secular government and the Hawks in the Revolutionary Guard.  The Hawks want to carry on the WAR, the Doves want some peace.  As stated many times, the theocracy cannot be trusted, they lie as they breath, and they have the Drones and will fire them on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.  TRUMP must take out the theocracy, its him or them that can win this War.

Latest US strikes on Iran - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " The US insists the Strait of Hormuz is open, despite Iran saying it has closed the waterway amid renewed strikes. "

Let's Get Real:

The Tehran Regime is playing games, it knows that Trump is a chicken.  The Trump Oval wants to wrap up the WAR it started, these tit for tat strikes places Trump in trouble before the Mid Terms in November, Trump should finish the WAR he started with the placing of ground troops on Kharg Island, take Iran's oil.  Trump has to win for his reputation and the security of the World.

US hits Iran Again - Update

Fox News: Reports the following, " CENTCOM says additional US strikes against Iran are underway "

Let's Get Real:

The attacks are at the same level as before, in the South near the Strait of Hormuz, no bridges or power plants hit in Tehran, no ground troops on Kharg Island.  Trump does not have the backbone to settle the Iran War once and for all, he has failed as other US Presidents have, cage and destroy the Tehran Regime, they are evil, and must be destroyed.

How Trump got Iran WRONG - Update

CNN: Reports the following, " How Trump has misjudged Iran "

Let's Get Real:

Trump made one major mistake, he did not understand the Middle East, the politics or culture.  The Trump Oval comes Real Estate and Reality TV? That is all he knows, then he started a War he did not finish, once you start a war you finish it, Presidential Credibility is at stake.  Trump did not learn the lessons of Obama in Syria.  One would think he would learn that weakness never works, thus Trump must finish the WAR by winning it, otherwise he is a big loser! 

 

US to Iran tonight - Trump at NATO Summit, - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 6.00pm post the following, " Donald Trump warned the US is preparing to launch more strikes against Iran, after he said he considered the US-Iran truce to be “over”. " 

Let's Get Real:

This Trump playing games, will he carry through with his threat, this blog has its doubts, he has threatened Iranian civilization before and backtracked before the attacks.  The Trump Oval has to follow through, he has no Presidential Credibility on Iran, how many u - turns have we seen, more u turns than Sir Keir Starmer.  The American people support winners, appeasers and failures do not have good reviews, just ask Richard Nixon or LBJ.  Trump needs to win in Iran.

Iranian Leadership is Scum - Trump at NATO Summit - Open

BBC News: Reports in its 9.52am post the following, " Scum', 'sick' and 'over': Trump's comments on Iran "

Let's Get Real:

This Trump having another tantrum, he says the MOU is finished but still allows talks to go with Iran, how much will you bet that Trump will change his mind later, Trump has no Presidential Credibility when it comes to Iran, how many times he walked back threats, the Oval is erratic and bonkers, living in his own world.  Other Presidents would have finished the job, Trump is a chicken.

US hits Iran over hits to Tankers in the Strait of Hormuz - Update

Sky News: Reports in the 10.17pm post the following, " US launches 'powerful strikes' on Iran "

Let's Get Real:

Iran is playing the US for fools, it goes quite for a time the attacks tankers in the Strait, it is testing the US, if they will react, expect this to go on for weeks and months, one can assume they will attempt something big before the Mid Terms, think Tet in 1968, they might invade Iraq, to see if the US comes to the assist of an ally, or they could close down the Strait again just before the November vote, when incidents happen the Trump plays down the event, it does not want to go back to WAR with Iran, Trump started a War he could not finish.  The would be incorrect, he did when chicken, 12 US Service personnel lost their lives for nothing, any other President would have hit Iran hard, and taken down the Regime. Trump is a TACO President, history on not kind on appeasers or chickens.

Zelensky needs more supports - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " Ukraine's president plans to use the Nato meeting in Turkey to urge Kyiv's allies to deliver the air defence systems it urgently needs to protect it from escalating Russian attacks."

Let's Get Real:

The NATO allies do not want a war with Russia's Putin, if they don't support Kyiv then they could find themselves in a WAR with Russia in 2030.  The Germans and Poland have increased defence spending, the UK has hardly started, its 1914 all over again.  What if the UK has to bring back enforced conscription, the young would have no idea what has hit them.  The UK has to wake up, before it's to late.

Has WOKE gone to far - Update

CNN: Reports the following, " White House report accuses Smithsonian leadership of radical ideology "

Let's Get Real:

Has WOKE gone to far, the answer is YES, saw a documentary on Thomas Jefferson on the History Channel, the last half hour was about how he fathered black children with Black female slave when she was 16, he freed his Black children when they reached 21, but his plantation slaves were sold off when he died, YES WRONG to have any slaves but he WROTE the Declaration of Independence from the UK.  Also as President he purchased millions of more land to expand the US, he was a founding father of the US, great men are flawed, even clay feet, but still great.

UK Fighters intercepted Russisn planes near UK Carrier - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 9.32am post the following, " UK fighter jets intercept Russian plane dropping sonar trackers near carrier " 

Let's Get Real:

This blog is tired of the Russian challenges in the air and sea, what about taking on these challenges, let's start by our Fighters taking on and shooting down Russian planes, if they are such a threat UK assets, the Russians will go to far one day, it might happen in Poland or the Baltic States, let's castrate the Russian Bear first, might prevent WW3.

1776 - 2026 America Celebrate their Independence

BBC News: Reports in its 4.13pm post the following, " Pop stars to perform across US to celebrate 250 years of independence "

Let's Get Real:

Thus US celebrates its 250th birthday.  The US is great, yes it has had its flaws, slavery etc, it took deaths and a civil war to STOP, even then it took in till the 1960s for African Americans to get their full rights, in the 21st Century it elected its 1st black President.  On the plus side we had US leadership during WW1 and 2.  The great President Ronald Reagan ended the Cold War, US is not perfect but still a Shining City on a Hill.

Threat to Poland - Update

 BBC News: Reports the following, " Polish PM warns critical months ahead in face of Russian threat "

Lets Get Real:

The Poles and the Baltic States are worried, they fear that Russia could do a false flag operation, or have a plane or helicopter go down in NATO country, and then the Russians send it troops, what would President Trump do, what would the new UK PM Andy Burnham do, very new to OFFICE, would he press the red button to save Poland, we have let Poland down in 1939 and 1945 when it was taken over by the Soviets, even after the Free Polish Forces had fought for the Allies in World War 2.   Trump is erratic, would he take action, he has shown that he is a puppet of Putin, will defend Poland even after they have increased their defence spending.   It is worry for Poland and the Baltic States, one gets the impression that the UK voter does not get how close to war we are, most of them were not about for the 1930s, and thus do not understand the threat.  Let's hope the intelligence networks are wrong about the Kremlin Plans, if not we are in the Summer of 1914, and have no idea what is coming.

Moscow will Fall - Ukraine - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 11.29am post the following, " 'Moscow will fall': Ukraine's drone chief talks up success of recent strikes "

Lets Get Rea:

This is putting the horse before the cart, KYIV has been hammered of late by the Russians, they are on the backfoot because of their loses in the Ukraine and the successful drone strike in CRIMEA, the Russian appointed Governor has declared a State of Emergency, the Russian people do not know of the Russian losses in the Ukraine, in between those killed, injured and lost, the total is 1.4 million, the losses in Afghanistan was less but helped lead to the downfall of the USSR.  The Putin Government is worried it will face the face of the Imperial Russia and Tsar Nicholas II, the lack of gas has lead to fights and the economy is going South, even the bankers are getting on the TV to say the WAR SHOULD END.  There are people in prison for holding up a white sheet as a form of resistance to Putin.   Thus Putin as stated in the previous post could invade Poland, to see show that NATO is a paper tiger and get the West to stop supporting the Ukraine, we are the 1930s again, appeasement wont work and we have a new PM Andy Burnham who has not been tested,  being MAYOR OF GREATER MANCHESTER does not cut it, Putin could see his chance of action before 2030.

Russia thtreat to Poland - Update

Daily Mail: Reports the following, " The Kremlin is planning an armed incursion on Polish land to test Nato's response, according to Washington.  "

Let's Get Real:

Putin wants public support, what better than attacking Poland, part of Russia in the Imperial Era and a satellite of the USSR, it would show that NATO was weak and count on the fact that Trump is a puppet of Putin or a chicken after Iran.  PUTIN is facing gas shortages in Russia, and the economy is tanking, and the people are suffering due to the War in the Ukraine.  This could be 1905 again and Putin will have to grant reforms as did Tsar Nicholas II.

Labour did not plan for 2024 victory - Update

BBC News: Reports " Sir Keir Starmer's former chief of staff has conceded that Labour failed to properly prepare for power in the run-up to its landslide general election win. "

Let's Get Real:

The REAL problem for the coming Labour Government in 2024, was not its u - turns, but the character of the PM, so say he has no charisma is an understatement, by comparison Sir John Major, the UK PM between 1990 - 97, had charisma to spare, the cartoon and sketch writers had him wearing his panse over his trousers, he was liked even in 1997, the day he left office, he went and watched the cricket, what will Sir Keir do, complain to the left wing media that he was stabbed in the back by Andy Burnham, and say his 2 years were great no matter the view of the public.  

Andy Burnham in a Economic hole over Defence-Update

Sky News: Reports in its 9.10am post the following, " Team Burnham 'furious' over defence shortfall - and why it could be more than £4.7bn "

Let's Get Real:

PM Starmer is being pushed out by Andy Burnham, thus he is leaving him a explosive political present.  The UK could be at war with Russia in a few years over the Baltic States or Poland.  Thus WW3 could be around the corner, and the UK is not ready, due to Conservative and Labour failures over the years.  Thus PM Andy Burnham needs to learn fast.
