Negotiating Escalations with Iran

We are on the brink of full-scale war for a foreign country. The Apache helicopter “incident,” Trump’s retaliation, Iran’s counterstrike, and the endless cycle of “we must respond” is exactly what the Israeli-first crowd wants. Meanwhile the Trump administration pretends “negotiations are ongoing” to calm the markets — total nonsense. Iran isn’t budging until it gets back the money the U.S. stole since the 1970s, and Lebanon & Gaza are non-negotiable. The Straits of Hormuz will never be a free lane again — tolls (disguised as “environmental fees”) are coming. Chris drops the receipts: Iran’s latest strikes on northern Israel were highly successful. U.S. and Israeli air defenses are stopping only 5% of Iranian missiles and drones. Ninety-five percent get through. That’s buyer’s remorse for every country that bought American tech. Iran already flipped the weather-warfare script after destroying the radar sites. Trump keeps posting that Iran’s military is a “complete mess.” ran’s real power is missiles, drones, patrol boats packed with torpedoes and undersea drones — classic asymmetrical warfare. The mountain bunkers are still operational. They cleared the rubble and kept building. Raw, no-guests Wednesday fire exposing the paymasters, the staged escalation, and why underestimating Iran is going to get Americans killed for a country that isn’t even a signed ally.
