Here Be Dragons

 



My comment to "CDR Salamander" (who doesn't post opinions he/DON disagree with):


As indicated, there was nothing that took place suddenly in Iran that precipitated Israel's unprecedented opening of a war against Iran. The 'when' was likely determined by Bibi based on Marco and Tulsi rooting out the hardcore pro Israelis from Deep State and the deminishing influence of Hagee and friends among the unwashed. 


We must not act as Bibi wants ... again. We are broke and depleating our military on behalf of a man Obama deposed a President for  in Ukraine and our 'special friend' (?) Israel. The latter affinity remains despite the Lavon affair, the USS Liberty, NUMEC, Pollard, the transfer of the Lavi designs to PRC, Epstein ....


If President Trump wants to eliminate Iran's ability ro have a functional nuclear weapon, one designed expressly for Iran's longest range ballistic missile, he'll have to accomplish regime change in North Korea as well.   North Korea's ICBM and nuclear weapons production efforts are both joint Iranian/North Korean efforts.


And, regime change, or bombing North Korean targets, is unlikely to be permitted by China, the likely ultimate winner in any way the Israeli/Iran gambit will turn out.

Update: Xi and Putin suggest a nuclear weapon may be provided by another country ... gee, I wonder who ...
