Strait of Hormuz Closed by Iran - Update

Fox News: Reports " Iran claims Strait of Hormuz closed despite US destroying 11 ships "

Let's Get Real:

As the article notes this is FAKE NEWS from Iran, the Tehran Regime can not afford to close the Strait of Hormuz, how would they get their own oil out.  There are risks in War, fake news can be the worse, it send oil prices through the roof, the US Navy has two aircraft carriers in the Region, they can keep the Strait open no matter what Iran does.

Trump's sees Iran War as a WIN - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 12.34pm post the following, " Trump's team sees Iran as a win - but that could get complicated " 

Let's Get Real:

Thus far no American casualties or loss in aircraft, Trump is very lucky.  The Democrats might be on a lose errand if they invoke the War Powers Act of 1973, Trump can VETO it, and the Senate might reject it, the Dems could lose retaking the House in the November elections, Americans like winners.  The LEFT has taken over the Democratic base, and will CNN stop invoking Invoking International law when it comes to Iran, when has Tehran followed the LAW of man or God.

US Embassy workers and Citizens to Fly out of Israel - Update

Guardian: Reports " US urges its citizens to leave Israel immediately amid strike threat to Iran.....Department of State authorises non-essential officials to leave, with embassy staff told to book flights to anywhere "

Let's Get Real:

This shadow boxing by the Trump, he is going to WIMP out as he has done in the past.  This blog would advice Americans to stay, Trump is a born chicken, he has moved aircraft Carriers like toys, it costs millions, the poor navy personnel have been at sea for months! Trump has stated he is not happy with Iran and their stand on the talks, they will not give up their Ballistic Missiles, its a red line for them, it should be a red line for the Trump Oval, they are a threat to the Middle East and Europe.  Thus the old term, Go Big or go home! Trump will lose Presidential credibility once he wimps out and Tehran will develop the bomb over time, like North Korea, and it will be the fault of Trump.

Significant Progress in Iran - US Talks - Omani Representative- Update

BBC News: Reports of significant progress in the talks between Iran - US in the opinion of the Omani Mediator.

Let's Get Real:

As this blog has suggested POTUS will take a 2nd hand deal from Iran, he is a chicken, why bothering to send two aircraft carriers to the Region, if he is not going to use them, they might as well return to their homes bases, he won't have any Presidential Credibility after this, the protesters died for nothing, no one will be afraid of Trump NOW, Tehran will secretly develop the bomb, another North Korea.

Trump's preferred option is Diplomcy with Iran - US VP

Guardian: Reports in its 5.18pm post " The vice-president has said that Donald Trump still prefers a diplomatic solution with Iran but still has “other tools at his disposal” that he is willing to use  "

Let's Get Real:

This blog has stated for some time that POTUS will wimp out of taking, he has moved two aircraft carriers for nothing, they are not his toys.  The Tehran will give the US a weak deal, short term bar on them getting Nukes, say 3 years, and we shall be back here in 2028, during the Presidential Election cycle.  The deal won't cover their Ballistic Missiles or their chemical weapons.  Iran has  a weak US President, that is not new, they will have a secret facilities to develop a new or existing nuclear material.   They will have a NUKE, all down to Trump. This is North Korea ALL over again.  At least the US Navy can return to their home ports.  Trump the WIMP will have fake headlines that he has won again! The World is heading to a nuclear crisis later in the Trump 2nd term, all because Trump is a chicken.


Trump warns Iran on its nuclear ambitions - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 3.48am post that President Trump warned Iran about its nuclear ambitions in his State of the Union address to Congress.

Let's Get Real:

POTUS stated what the World knows that US has an armada in the Middle East, the largest since the Iraq War, he stated he wants Diplomacy but will not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon, he did not sell that a war might be needed in the end, is he about to WIMP out, or is about to chicken out.  The lack of selling a needed WAR confirms that Trump will take a 2nd hand deal, worse than Obama's deal with Iran.  The people of Iran will suffer for more years under a theocracy, Appeasement never works.


Trump Advices Congress on Iran - Update

Guardian: Reports " Marco Rubio delivers rare briefing to top US lawmakers on Iran amid tensions..Secretary of state’s address came as US deploys largest force of aircraft and warships to Middle East since 2003  "

Let's Get Real:

One does wonder  why Trump has done this, is it theatre for the State of the Union, why bother if he is going to WIMP out and take a 2nd hand deal from Iran.   Is the Oval really going to do something this time, over Greenland he has wimped OUT and had to retract his comments on UK troops in Afghanistan during the WAR, he changed his policy over ICE,  when he is faced by stiff opposition he backtracks, he is frustrated that Iran has not caved, he wants something from the Geneva talks on Thursday, Tehran will play him, they are good at that, so what will POTUS do about Iran's nuclear stockpile and chemical weapons?  Time will tell.

Iran's Chemical Weapons - Update

Fox News: Reports " Iran’s shadowy chemical weapons program draws scrutiny as reports allege use against protesters  "

Let's Get Real:

This is another worry for the Trump Administration, POTUS does not trust Iran with Nukes, what about chemical weapons, that should worry the Oval, a chemical attack on US bases or Israel could kill thousands, therefore POTUS should not WIMP out and take a 2nd hand deal from Iran.  Trump should demand that Tehran has no Nukes or chemical weapons.  This is for the safety of the Middle East and US security in the long term.

Trump frustrated about Iran - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 12.14pm post " Trump reportedly frustrated as he waits on envoys’ judgment over Iran strikes  "

Let's Get Real:

The deadline is THURSDAY, the Americans will meet with Iran in Geneva.  That should decide the outcome, this blog still thinks Trump is WIMP and will chicken out, he does not like long wars, such as Afghanistan and Iraq, he was critical of Iraq at the time.  The Oval will try to weasel out of action, he might accept a 2nd hand deal from Iran or Tehran will cave, if it had a brain cell it would.  It will interesting to see the State of the Union tonight ( Wednesday morning here in the UK ) will POTUS mention Iran in the speech, give them another ultimatum, its 10 days and counting down so far.

US Targets in Iran

CNN: Reports  " Trump’s riskiest move: What led Iran to this moment — and what happens next  "

Let's Get Real:

There are talks on Thursday in Geneva as reported by Sky News, neither side want to compromise, Trump wants Iran's nuclear material, limits on its Ballistic Missiles, and freedom for those in Iran to protest.   The Tehran Regime only wants to talk about its nuclear material and keeping it in Iran, only short term limits for its nuclear programme and the end of sanctions.   The Oval needs more than that, it has moved two aircraft carriers in to the region, and other ships and subs, the greatest naval armada since the WAR in Iraq.  The Oval cannot WIMP out if it wants to keep Presidential credibility, look at what happened to LBJ over Vietnam and Obama with Syria, once lost credibility  is hard to get back.  Tehran is afraid to look weak to its oppressed people and to neighbours in the Area.  Thus clock is counting down to Trump's deadline.

Iran a week away from the bomb - Update

 Fox News: Reports "Witkoff warns Iran is ‘a week away’ from 'bomb-making material' as Trump weighs action......Steve Witkoff says Iran has violated Trump's 'zero enrichment' red line with uranium enriched up to 60%  "

Let's Get Real:

If the above is TRUE, one assumes the information came from Mossad's Israel, they have their spies and tech people to keep themselves and US informed at the latest state of play when it comes to Iran. Thus the US bombing last year had not the desired outcome, Tehran still has its nuclear stockpile, it has to be destroyed by either the US or Israel.  The 15 day countdown has been ticking for a few days, the Tehran Regime must fancy their chances of riding out a US attack, one hopes sanity will return to Tehran, they need to cave, they should not play Trump, either he wimps out, or goes 100% and removes the Regime! 

Iran willing to dilute its nuclear stockpile - Update

Guardian:  Reports " Iran willing to dilute uranium stockpile as fresh protests erupt  "

Let's Get Real:

This is a WEAK offer by Iran, you don't send two aircraft carriers to the Middle East to be bought off so easily, what will Trump DO? WIMP out or take firm action, he has not sold a WAR to the American people, he said last year that American bombing had destroyed Iran's nuclear stockpile, it seems that is not the case, can he walk that back?  The State of the Union is on Tuesday, what will Trump say about Iran, if anything.  The MAGA base does not want another WAR, what will Trump decided. The clock is counting DOWN.


Students Protest in Iran - Updste

BBC News: Reports that Iranian students have been protesting around Iran.

Let's Get Real:

These are brave students, specially after the Government crackdown in January.   The students are the future of Iran, the Regime is the PAST.   The article also notes that President Trump is frustrated why the Tehran Regime has not caved, that is easy to answer, they would be hung from the nearest yard arm if they gave up power and they know that, the Regime is EVIL. Evil has to be destroyed, a new Iran has to be reborn, let's hope Trump does not wimp out this time, the future is at stake!  Iran cannot be allowed to have Nukes or nuclear material, they could give a dirty bomb to their terrorist Allies.

Trump considering LIMITED STRIKE on IRAN - Update

Fox News: Reports that President Trump is considering a limited strike on Iran to get them to the Negation Table.

Let's Get Real:

This is the REAL TRUMP, he wants a limited war and Tehran caving to what he wants, no nukes and access to their oil.   The biggest build up of US military forces is to send a warning to Iran, the problem is everyone has Trump's number, limited WAR with GOOOD TV HEADLINES.   The Oval does not want body bags of US Military Personnel, it does not want to place land forces in Iran, after the perceived and actual failure in AFGHANISTAN AND IRAQ, Biden's polls never recovered after the failed departing of American from Afghanistan, Trump does not want that before the November Elections.  IF Tehran had a brain cell it would cave, and the Regime would be safe from Trump, that is the question will Tehran cave to US demands.

Long Military Campaign in Iran Planned -Update

Daily Mail: Reports " Trump is considering 'weeks-long campaign' in Iran that would look 'like full-fledged war' and be 'existential for the regime', with 'dramatic influence on the entire region' "

Let's Get Real:

Events, boy Events, when asked by a Junior Minister asked a great British PM, what could go wrong.  POTUS will be bruised by the US Supreme Court struck down his tariffs, he will want to be seen as strong, and not look weak, thus POTUS might go for a limited strike on Iran, a long war could be costly, he has not sold the idea to the American people, he said that last attack had destroyed Iran's nuclear capacity, also Sir Keir Starmer is playing games with the US over the use of their bases on UK soil, that is a bad move, Trump has thin skin and holds a grudge, we need the US to give security guarantees to the Ukraine, the PM should be careful, he is the British PM not the Director of Prosecutions any more, he cannot be both.  This blog does not expect an attack this weekend, we are still in the 15 day window that Trump has set as a deadline, in less he goes bonkers and attacks to make point, he has to wait for the USS Gerald R Ford aircraft carrier to get to the Middle East, it should be there by the Weekend.  Events, boy Events, turn history.

Trump's Deadline to Iran - 10 Days and Counting Down - Update

Daily Mail: Reports " Donald Trump warned the US could bomb Iran if a deal isn't reached in the next 10 days "

Let's Get Real:

This is a way out for TRUMP, his deadlines change many times are women change their clothes - A lot.  Trump is a wimp, but he is costing the American Tax Payer a fortune, he has two aircraft carriers in the Middle East by the Weekend, and other US Ships and Subs who can launch cruise missiles.  It would be interesting to see the COST of this vast deployment, all that Trump can look tough.  CNN has stated that Trump has added 5 days to is deadline.  It has become a truism that Trump Always Chickens OUT, the tax payer has to pick up the bill.   If POTUS does not act, he will be seen as WEAK, on the reverse side that non action will go down well with his base.  The MAGA base are tired of long WARS, they see AFGHANISTAN and IRAQ as a failure, and are tired of the US being the World's policeman, and Trump the showman has not stated why the US has to go WAR, he stated in the past that the US had destroyed Iran's nuclear capacity, was that true or false, if FALSE, the Oval should explain WHY, if he wimps out, no one will be afraid of Trump on the World Stage. What an irony!.

The WIMP and Iran - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 7.30pm pm the following, " White House says 'diplomacy' is 'always' top option for Trump on Iran .

Let's Get Real:

Trump will wimp out of doing anything, he will take a bad deal over real action.  It has become a truism that Trump always chickens out, he is a natural bully, when someone stands up to him, he backs down.  This blog knows bullies.  JUST look at the case of Greenland and how the Oval back downed when Europe says no, or the ICE missions when the people said NO.   Tehran are beyond bullies, they are murders and EVIL, killing their own people, they know they just have to run clock down with Trump, the November elections are coming, Trump does not want a long WAR.

Geneva talks between Iran and US - Update

CNN: Reports that the US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and the President Trump's son in law  Jared Kushner will represent the US in talks with Iran.

Let's Get Real:

When has this worked, has not worked with the Ukraine War, these two gentlemen are not DIPLOMATS, we are talking about nuclear weapons here, they have no experience of NUKES, Iran  it seems from the article is talking about allowing the US oil concessions, it has worked for the Regime in Venezuela, one can see endless talks going nowhere, while protesters rot in prison, Heaven Help Us.

Regime change in Iran would be best - Trump

Sky News: Reports that President Trump has stated Regime change in Iran would be best, as he sends the USS Gerald R Ford Aircraft Carrier to the Middle East.

Let's Get Real:

If POTUS backs down NOW, he will have no Presidential credibility, the World will see him as a major WIMP who chickens out when the US is needed.   ONE hopes Oval understands that, he has set the game, he must follow through and take out the Iranian Regime.  ONCE Trump stated the US would support the protesters and come to their rescue, he has no choice, to miss quote Margaret Thatcher, don't WOMBLE Donald!

Iran fortifications for Nuclear facilities - Update

BBC News: Reports that has been found to have fortified one of its nuclear sites.

Let's Get Real:

The Tehran Regime cannot be trusted, its says its nuclear programme is for peaceful purposes, this blog has a bridge in Brooklyn for sale if any one is interested! The Regime in Tehran is EVIL, the murder of its own people has shown that, its lies and supports terrorist groups in the Middle East, it has a Ballistic Missiles that are a threat to the Region and Europe.   THE Iranian Regime is lucky, it has a WIMP in the White House, Trump just wants a deal, that he can sell to the American people, after telling then that the short war with Iran had destroyed its nuclear capability, also a deal that Israel will support without undermining the Deal by poiting out its flaws.  THE movement of two aircraft Carriers is all shadow boxing, all for Trump's ego.
