Houthis attack Israel - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 10.44am post the following, " Houthis launch strike on Israel as Iran war enters second month - a recap  "

Let's Get Real:

THIS opens the War on the Western front, puts the Suez Canal in play, Iran can block the Strait of Hormuz, and the Houthis can attack in the Med, leading to the Suez Canal.  That would cause a recession/depression to the Western economy, governments would feel the wrath of voters, due to food and petrol inflation.  Trump could have opened a evil Pandora box, did he have a choice is the question.

Talks NEXT WEEK between US and Iran - Witkoff

Sky News: Reports in its 8.10pm post the following, " Witkoff: US hopeful of holding Iran meetings this week  "

Let's Get Real:

This is an interesting development, the two sides could havec very different agendas, Trump wants them to surrender their nuclear stockpile and Tehran wants to keep it and control the Strait of Hormuz, neither two Trump agree too, this is really a TACO moment for the Trump Oval ( Trump Always Chickens Out ).  The Democrats will have a field day if he WIMPS out, it could be BLUE wave in the November Mid Terms, the Democrats will retake the House.


Israel ATTACKS power plants - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 6.48pm post the following, " Iran says strikes contradict Trump's 'extended deadline for diplomacy' "

Let's Get Real:

The bombing of power plants and nuclear plants had been delayed as the article states, is Israel doing its own thing, no matter what POTUS says.  Is Jerusalem thinking they better hit these targets while it can before Trump declares a fake victory.   The Oval wants out of this war, this is another TACO moment from Trump, the WIMP has come back.

Trump considering 10,000 more troops to the Middle East - Update

Fox News: Reports the following, "  Trump weighs deploying up to 10,000 more troops to Middle East during war with Iran: report "

Let's Get Real:

This would be an escalation in the WAR in Iran, they could be used to take Kharg Island, the oil facilities there are the tap for Iranian oil.  The Tehran has upgraded the defences on the Island, from mines to air defences, also more troops.  Thus far the main news from overnight.

Good will from Iran - Iran War

Guardian: Reports in its 4.02pm post the following, " Trump says Iran allowing some oil tankers through strait as sign of good faith "

Let's Get Real:

Trump is easily impressed, if the Tehran Regime had released some political prisoners from the January unrest, that would have been impressive, also why is the Tehran Regime denied that there are talks.   The reason that Tehran Regime allowed 10 ships to pass is they are by flag registration under the Pakistan authority, the mediators in the talks between the US and Iran.  There are still tankers blocked going through the Strait of Hormuz, that is the blackmail.  The Tehran Regime is sophisticated in blackmail, they don't have other forces, due to destruction by the US.  Trump should be wary that he is being player by Iran.

Update: Sky News reports POTUS is delaying the bombing of the power plants of Iran in till the 6th of April at the request of Iran.   Is POTUS being played by Iran, it looks like it at the moment.


Trump CRITICAL of NATO Again - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 10.20am post the following, " Trump: NATO has 'DONE 0NOTHING' to help with 'LUNATpIC' Iran "

Let's Get Real:

As the article notes, POTUS has asked for help, but NATO countries have said a big NO, thus illogical remarks later that the US does not need NATO.  The problem for NATO countries is that they will have to carry the military load for the Ukraine and Western Europe.  Trump cannot leave NATO, it would be against US Law.  Before Trump was re-elected, the US passed a law that prevent Presidents leaving NATO.  The law was passed just in case Trump won.   The Oval can make life uncomfortable for the Ukraine and Europe, there will be payback from Trump after the US - Iran WAR is finished.




Trump calls the Iranian talks very different and strange - Update

BBC News:  Reports in its 10.55am post the following, " Get serious soon, before it is too late' Trump tells Iranian leaders on negotiations 

Let's Get Real:

Thus the problems with the talks, they have different agendas, Trump wants the appearance of winning and so does Iran.  Only one side can win, it better be the US or the Western economy and security will be at the mercy of Iran.  The Trump Presidency would have no credibility left, and would have burned Western European security in the process, leaving the Ukraine at the mercy of Putin's Russia.
