(another) Letter to the President

Dear Mr President.

I pray daily for your safety and that of Melania and Barron. I pray that Susie Wiles is quickly healed and able to best serve you. I also pray that in these perilous times you have the true inspiration of God with which to make your decisions. Know that God does not speak thru Paula White and Hagee. 

I write to express my concern that you are adequately informed on the immense vulnerability of our critical infrastructure as you contemplate the destruction of Iran's. While I am sure our military can eliminate generators and power distribution centers in Iran (we have been since I was off the coast of Iran during Reagan's inauguration) – what capability do we have to see that ours is defended from unconventional attacks here? Iran's chief proxy is Hezbollah and they are very, very well established here (1). They have long ago developed their own 'target sets' and the FBI, while able to rummage thru Melania's underwear drawer, has done little but watch them grow over the last 20 years. Consider that our high voltage transformers take a year to replace and most are readily destroyed by gunfire. No power, then no refrigeration, no sewage lift stations - major cities in anarchy in days. 

We would have the red-green alliance, the Marxists in DC, and the complete dependent class, calling for revolution.

And all of that is apart from the simple question - are the Iranian citizens who will die as result of your infrastructure attacks really responsible for the actions of the Mullahs? Mullahs. I might add. who were put in power as result of the CIA and MI6 coup.

Weight this well before deciding Mr President. The elimination of the terrorist theocracy in Iran before they built– or North Korea supplied – nuclear weapons was necessary. Commencing open war before hardening our own infrastructure is, however, not likely a Divinely inspired strategy.

Very Respectfully, 

xxxx CDR, USN (Ret.) and Wounded Warrior dad

The smell of fail


Folks,

I'll admit to being a pessimist when it comes to security. 

Let's just say it's the result of real world 'lived experience' as an intelligence analyst and an operations guy.  I learned "the smell of fail".

And that's what I smell right now.

We are engaged in, to put it bluntly, the unprecedented killing of Iranians in their homeland.   We are destroying bridges and critical infrastructure.  Why we did this without first eliminating known Iranian intel and strike assets within the US first is a damm good question - but not today's topic.

Iran is justly identified as the leading sponsor of Islamic terrorism worldwide.  Iran is the key sponsor of Hezbollah.   Quds Force, a branch of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps responsible for overseeing operations outside Iran, will be working directly with Hezbollah in attacks in the US.  

We have long known of Hizbollah terror elements in the US.   They are very sophisticated and have long ago  developed in-depth target sets for terror attacks within the US.

"Despite the prominence of Hezbollah’s financing activities in the United States, overemphasizing the financial aspects risks misinterpreting the broader strategic picture: elements within Hezbollah remain interested in developing the capacity and capability to plot attacks on U.S. soil."

We know thousands more potential Islamic terrorists have entered the US while our border was unguarded.

And, recently, in a fashion recognizable to me ... the 'smell', our 'intel professionals' have seen to it upcoming attacks within America will not be called a 'surprise' by them - even though they demonstrably lacked the ability to warn with adequate specificity to defend or deter the attack beforehand.





If you are involved in security for a church I recommend two documents for your review:



(both from JSTOR)

What we may see now is terrorism by organized 'cells' of competent commandos, not the familiar lone wolf or mental case.  The example of Europe, which has had activity by organized groups for decades, may be instructive.  

I pray our efforts to prevent a nuclear attack by Iran - if even with weapons bought from North Korea - are effective, and that Iranians regain freedoms lost long ago ... back to when MI6 and CIA did the deed to them.  But, meanwhile, IMHO, I'd recommend no trucks near church buildings.  backpacks not clearly packed with diapers searched, and real security on site during services.

Long read - but worth your time

So often the ONLY resource to explain what's happening in our benighted capital is Conservative Treehouse.

I use to respect some of the folks who built our Deep State.  No more!  What they built was too easily turned against us.  And it has.

Pray for our country, our deployed aircrews and sailors, and our President.

Good to see


First - President Trump apparently listens to someone other than Hagee and Paula White on matters of faith ...  https://x.com/SpeakerJohnson/status/2038282063510458710 .

That is immensely good.

 And - there really is a strategy.  There are whole networks and internet algorythms manipulating your view of events and intended to distort your perception of all things Trump.  BUT there IS a strategy, and it's for the good of the United States and the world.   What is taking place is that Trump is dismantling the power centers that consolidated in the post war west, power center that grew because most folks were distracted building families and our 'leaders' were overwhelmingly lazy, ignorant, or corrupt.

That too is immensely good.

Finish the job (for us) ...

Remember that great Israeli "intel" on "launch ready" WMDs that got us to go to war in Iraq?

Lies.

Then Bibi and friends told Trump he could set the Iranian nuke program back decades if he bombed them last June.

How'd that work for  - US?

Come January Bibi convinces Trump - who SHOULD have known better - they had a popular revolution in the works to free Iran if he bombed them  ...

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/israels-mossad-promised-it-could-ignite-regime-change-iran-report

Lies.

All lies.

Now a former Israeli defense minister says US troops need to invade Iran 

...https://generalyoavgallant.substack.com/p/now-or-never-how-to-finish-the-job

Hey General - how 'bout you send these heroes instead?

Trump needs to get the MEGA folks out of the White House for good.
