Note: I actually had a post scheduled wondering about the buildup of US heavy metal in the Middle East and what it would lead to. Then I woke up this morning to the headlines that Iran was spontaneously exploding. Its a wild world when current event move faster than my ability to speculate on them.

When I learned to drive, the person instructing me told me to stop looking at what was directly in front of my bumper and to instead keep my attention on what was further down the road. By looking far down the road in front of me, I’d be ready for whatever approached and came within immediate range. I can’t imagine I need to explain the analogy or metaphors in there.
Ive been so focused on the Beta Site that I’ve been neglecting looking down the road in front of me to see, and prepare for, whats coming.
Whats on my personal radar? Well, I have a feeling that the political situation is so…polarized? Balkanized?…that the notion of Republicans (such as they are) winning the Oval Office in 2028 seems terribly unlikely. I mean, yes, it’s possible that the Democrats run such an unlikable or clueless candidate (like obvious wannabe Gavin Newsom) that they manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. My point being that I need to plan and prepare ‘just in case’ the Democrats win in 2028…and for me that means just stocking up on more magazines and AR lowers. It also means exploring the consequences of what a now-we-have-them-where-we-want-them Democratic victory and administration would be. So, gotta war game that.
I was going to say I need to wargame what an upcoming Middle East in flames would look like but Epic Fury beat me to it. Off to CostCo as soon as possible to fill up the truck and extra gas cans in case prices decide to ramp up.
I must say, regime change, rightly or wrongly, seems to be a theme these days. If we expend all our missiles knocking down the Iranians, whats going to happen when China decides to step on Taiwan while we’re restocking the shelves?
Interesting times, indeed.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Peace President. Next up Cuba.
No more wars. LMAO.
The phrase was “no more FOREVER wars”.
Try and keep up, and stop misquoting people to serve your own agenda.
Two days to flatten Iran? Your Great Grandchildren ( if they survive) will be cursing you for the damage done.
2028 Republicans or Democrats?
“At this point what difference does it make?”
may want to think about that a bit
Or when the Iranian regime decides to try to stick it out and activates cells here in the US…

Depends on your time in life. You are right on for your age. For me, looking at the bumper. Put in hospice last August. Doc said about a year. Tends to narrow the focus a bit. One thing I have never heard you suggest to the young fellas planning to harvest Coeds. … tiny string bikinis! Might make the passage of time much more enjoyable…..
Then you have shenanigans in the silver market…

You have a typo in the post.
It’s Operation Epstein Fury.
Nobody has been worried about Epstein during the pedo joe years. If there was there and it was it , don’t you think pedo joe ‘s handlers would have done something?
so why not let it all out now release everything
Others are calling it Operation Epic Fail. As usual give it 72 hours to see what’s happening.
’bout time. 47 years overdue. Payback is a bitch.
Amen.
“death to America!”
Back atcha!
^That.
Iran declared war 47 years ago.
The US just responded.
It’s not going well for the stupid people still living in the 6th century.
It never has.
Bonus: most of their oil was going to China and Russia.
So, two-fer, maybe hat trick.
Two Quotes seem fitting:
They wanna have a war, keep their factories
They wanna have a war to keep us on our knees
They’re pointing out the enemy to keep you deaf and blind
They wanna sap your energy, incarcerate your mind. -Dire Straights
If elected, I will stop the Russia/Ukraine war on day one, guaranteed. – Trump
On quote 2 of post 6:44, I would say Trump attempted to bring that conflict to an end. Unfortunately, Ukraine and Russia do not seem interested in ending the conflict. It takes two to make peace – one side to maintain war. The prior Biden administration did not want to stop the conflict. They gave one side many weapons and chanted “Fight – fight – fight.” They wanted Ukraine to make war on Russia.
And, as it turns out, Vlad can’t walk away from this one with getting Makarov-retired.
Trump has nothing left in the bag o’ tricks that undoes that reality.
Always remember there’s more than one way to end a war. See Curtis LeMay’s commentary on that.
End of the world risk is high right now. So far it looks like we Capped the Iranian’s top dogs. Have to see if the rest want to try something different. They will not stop until the Middle East is a glass topped parking lot. Or they give up and keep there heads down for a time.
Have to wait.
Following. This is just another bump in the road and of subject matters that is basically background noise and macro politics theater and distractions. In your own little grid square of world just continue on with your own prepping strategy and actions and tweak or tailor your usual tactics and actions around what peripheral effects this global corporation theater skits cause to your area or situation. Top off and rotate gas or l.o.p. lube oil petroleum products just as you would seasonally or before storms etc. Have cash on hand and maintain comfy stocks and inventories of things like you would normally do any way. You do avoid crowds anyways like old Remus advised, right? Just don’t loiter and mingle in public gatherings with normies so as not to have your body parts separated by an i.e.d. or jihadi revenge activated agent. Make popcorn with ample butter and salt and enjoy the show. Nothing more to do or fret about.
We’ll see if global terrorism is funded by Iran or China shortly.
Historically, its been funded by Washington D.C. and the banksters.
Follow the money on the US side
who in trumpworld recently got billions or a 400 million dollar jet from Iran’s regional rivals.
witkoff and trump 2 billion into their crypto schemes from UAE
kushner 2 billion from the Saudis
How many Americans died this weekend to pay trumps benefactors
Iran or China? You do know we brought the major groups out years ago and have been controlling, training, arming and supporting them in the middle east and surrounding areas for years. They are the so called freedom fighters in Syria in a large part formerly known as ISIS and Al Qaeda, Al Nusra, etc. The real funny part is CIA terrorists fighting DOD Terrorists fighting Brit Terrorists and Turkeys terrorist groups.
The man put into the Syria presidency was a ISIS top leader, he was the head chopper you saw in various videos during the Iraq fighting…..
Two homegrown terrorist incidents since everything started. I think this is just the beginning. Had to inventory the vehicle med kits today, just in case.
Want to have some fun that will piss you off, Ck out the Austin shooters history or lack there of.
Just another low IQ brother of color living off our dime for decades until its time to shoot americans….
