US clears Iranian mines from Strait of Hormuz- Trump - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " US President Donald Trump has said that the US Navy has removed or detonated all mines in the Strait of Hormuz - the vital waterway which Iran has largely closed since the beginning of the war in the Middle East. 

Let's Get Real:

The Trump Oval will be touting this development in a failed strategic campaign, the military action has failed to move the Tehran Government, the only thing that will work is US ground troops, that is the one option that Trump is afraid to take, he genuinely is afraid of the loss of US Service personnel, Presidents should expect to lose troops, if they are going to be successful in foreign policy.  Trump is going big on global sanctions on Iran, we shall see if that works.  Trump and Putin are delusional, that is why they are friends, nuts like fellow nutters!

CIA Director in Russia over Polish Concerns - Update

Daily Mail: Reports the following, "  CIA director John Ratcliffe has made a surprise trip to Moscow, it was reported on Tuesday, after an American jet landing sparked frenzied speculation. 

Let's Get Real:

As the article states this less than secret visit to Russia could be because that the Trump Administration is concerned about threats to Poland and even the Baltic States, US Intelligence has warned that Russia could take action in either as to divert attention from the failed war in Ukraine.  Poland and the Baltic States should be on ALERT, action could come at the end of the year or next year.  Putin's Russia needs Trump in the Oval, he always appeases Russia, NATO should be on ALERT also to the threat.

US Global Sanctions Against Iran - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 6.19pm post, " US Treasury has begun 'unprecedented campaign' of sanctions against Iran 'and its enablers', says Bessent "

Let's Get Real:

Will see if this works and if Iran's enablers care what Trump does or what he says!  Trump has made big threats before and did not carry them out, will he follow through, this blog has its doubts.  The Trump Oval had lost whatever his Presidential Credibility he had over Iran, a war that was meant to last a few months is still on going, Military action has failed with Iran, now its economic, the US is fighting a conventional war, while Tehran is fighting a religious war, the only thing Iranian Regime has to do is survive to win, Trump needs a quick victory, its a matter of politics.

Putin divorced from reality when it comes to the Ukraine War - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 1.11pm post the following, " Putin 'misunderstanding' revealed by deadline, say analysts "

Let's Get Real:

It can be said that President Trump is also delusional when it comes to Iran.  It can be postulated that Putin has not been told the truth of the casualties suffered or does not care.  Thus the recent report that Putin is to conscript another three hundred thousand troops from the out limits of Russia as not to cause protests in the town or young people running for the border.  The Russian needs to be told the truth, or he could fall from power when least expected.

UK to give blueprints of long range missiles to the Ukraine - PM Burnham- Update

BBC News: Reports in its 7.07am post the following, " Burnham to meet Zelensky and hand long-range missile blueprints on first foreign trip as UK PM "

Let's Get Real:

This is a good move by PM Burnham, the long range blueprints that the UK will give Ukraine, will make Putin's Kremlin furious, also it shows the new PM is committing to the Ukraine as has previous UK PMs, the UK has stood by the Ukraine while US has and is still wobbling over support for the Ukraine.

Russia to conscript new Troops - Zelensky - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 11.42pm post the following, " Zelenskyy: Putin wants to draft 300,000 new troops after mid-September 

Let's Get Real:

The shows Russian does not care about its soldiers, the meat grinder of the Russian front has killed hundreds of thousands of Russians, those young Russians who have the ability have fled the borders.  PUTIN needs North Korean troops to help him in the WAR, the article notes that Putin will not conscript from the big towns, he does not want demonstrations by the young and their mothers.  Ukraine is winning this WAR, the Kremlin is losing, it can only end with Kyiv winning.

Duchess of Sussex in Netflix Deal - Update


Let's Get Real:

The Palace will be appalled, why could not the Duchess do a period piece, the Palace will be on guard for anything racy ( sexual ) or violent in the series.  The red tops will cover the content in detail, the arts and Royality do not mix! Just ask Prince Edward and his Royal Knockbout in the 1980s.  Thus we have the reason why the Sussex family came back, its about the career of the Duchess! Great shock! GOD SAVE THE KING.
