also, Saudi Arabia attacked rebel-held Yemen
Wall Street Journal reports that 'Bahrain and Kuwait secretly sent jets to attack sites inside Iran, their first such direct retaliation against Tehran'.
Saudi Arabia rejects Trump's backtracking on the nuclear deal, a signed deal is a signed deal, it says

Iran continuing to attack while the US stands down would be an interesting choice, our GCC allies are still under the gun
that the USA is running out of ammo and interceptors isn't a surprise, it's been widely reported
announcing that the USA is running out of ammo makes little sense unless it's meant to lull Iran into complacency before a US attack -- you simply don't have to volunteer that info
maybe someone showed Trump the projected price of gasoline in the USA on Jan 1

Trump has used missiles and oil as if they were inexhaustible -- clearly they're not
Because of Trump, Iran has the USA over a barrel

CENTCOM: The U.S. naval blockade against Iran remains in full effect. As of July 25, CENTCOM has redirected 12 commercial vessels trying to run the blockade, disabled 2 that didn't comply, and boarded 2 to ensure total compliance.
Is Dept. of Defense proud of the sacrifice or do they want to sweep it under the rug?
Pick one
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...lties-cover-upThe Pentagon is taking a “shameful approach” to releasing information about US casualties in the Iran war, Leon Panetta, a former defence secretary and CIA director, has told the Guardian.
The defence department has not held a press briefing for two and a half months. Officials have faced accusations that they are engaged in a cover-up designed to hide the true cost of Donald Trump’s war of choice in Iran, fearing a public backlash before November’s midterm elections.
Panetta, who held weekly Pentagon briefings during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, criticised the department for failing to disclose how many people had been hurt in bomb attacks by Iran on US bases.
“There’s a deliberate effort here to basically withhold information from the American people, and I think it represents in many ways a shameful approach to sharing the responsibility that we all have when it comes to fighting a war,” he said by phone.
