Trump is wimping out of Iran War - Update

Guardian: Report the following in its 2.27pm post the following "  Report  : Trump says war with Iran will end 'soon'  "

Let's Get Real:

President Trump will lose Presidential credibility when he wimps out of Iran, Presidents must stay the course or they are seen as weak, aka Jimmy Carter.  JFK and Reagan as seen as great Presidents, they were tough, Kennedy over Cuba and Vietnam, Reagan surviving assassination attempt, being tough with the USSR, invading Grenada and bombing Libya, and supporting the Contra Freedom Fighters in Nicaragua.  If Trump wimps out in Iran then he fails Presidential greatness.

400 hundred million new barrels of oil on the Market - Update

BBC News:  Reports in its 2.11pm post the following, "  IEA approves release of 400m barrels of oil  " 

Let's Get Real:

This is the largest release in the body's history as noted by the article, all down to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iran.  As Sky News reports the high price of oil has not gone down.  How will the release help, supply of oil for a few days buy what afterwards.  Trump has been making remarks that he wants out, Iran is not Venezuela, Trump is wimping out, this blog expects that Trump could declare victory by the weekend, with the Regime in Iran still in charge, and they could have access to nuclear weapons in a fee years, Trump is NO Reagan.

Iran mines Strait of Homuz - Update

CNN: Reports the following, " Iran begins laying mines in Strait of Hormuz, sources say  "

Let's Get Real:

The US has taken out a 16 mine - laying boats in the Strait of Hormuz, we shall see what Iran does to counter this, the price of oil will go up, but the G7 nations can release their emergency stockpile, thus keeping the price down, depends who blinks first, the US or Iran.  The Mid Terms are coming up, a lot of political pressure coming up, after that we have the 2028 Presidential cycle starting, VP Vance will want a quick finish to the war.

HMS Dragon on the way to the Middle East - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 4.35pm post the following, " UK's HMS Dragon headed for eastern Mediterranean to bolster Cyprus defence  "

Let's Get Real:

This is about time, its embarrassing being British with our lack action at sea.  The RAF has done an excellent job defending our Gulf Allies.  The aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales, it seems won't be going to the Middle East, Greenland is seen as being under threat from the Americans and Russia.  Sir Keir Starmer has let the UK down, the special relationship between the UK and the US is in threads due to the need of keeping Sir Keir conscious in the clear! The man is in wrong job. Let's hope he does not  need the US when it comes to the Ukraine, this blog can guess the reaction, it won't be good.

Iran THREATENS Trump - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 11.24am post the following, " Iran responds to Trump threats: 'Be careful not to get eliminated yourself' "

Let's Get Real:

This is a bad idea by Tehran, POTUS cannot back down if he is under threat from Tehran, also Trump has the thinnest skin in politics, he will want to attack Iran more, the theocracy is losing its grip, they can never out demagogue Trump! No one can.


Heavy bombing of Iran today - US - Update

BBC News: Reports in its 12.56pm post the following " Today will be the 'most intense' of US attacks, Hegseth says - "

Let's Get Real:

This could be US Secretary of War, setting up Trump to end the War after a few heavy strikes, it would make sense after what Trump said yesterday that the US had achieved its aims, but wanted to win more.  Let's see the Regime is still in place, it still could have access to its nuclear stockpile, it has blocked the Strait of Hormuz, it still controls the streets, how can this be defined as victory.  This blog thought that Trump would WIMP out in the end.

Iran' s Uranium stockpile - Update

CNN: Reports " Capturing Iran’s highly enriched uranium would require a large US ground force, sources say  "

Let's Get Real:

The above operation would cost to many American lives, here is a simple solution, tell any one who lives in a ten mile radius to move away, you should have thought about the solution before I say it...Yes drop a nuclear bomb on the place or places, Truman dropped two, before bombing warn Tehran that if they try to move the nuclear stockpile before bombing that the US gives itself the right to bomb ahead of time. Extreme action is needed to finish this WAR and for Trump not to WIMP out.
