The US Military has everything that it needs to conduct this campaign as effectively as it needs to be and the people who are leaking this nonsense (that our military stockpiles are depleted) deserve to be in jail.
"Biden depleted US missile stockpiles but if you report that US missile stockpiles are depleted you should go to jail"
WELKER: Is America backing away from a larger attack bc our stockpile has been depleted?
WALTZ: We have to take a step back. A lot of our stockpiles were depleted because of Biden
WELKER: But you acknowledge they're depleted?
WALTZ: No. And the people leaking this nonsense deserve to be in jail

speaking of leakers
"On March 26, 2025, it was revealed by The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg that Waltz had inadvertently added him to a Signal group chat discussing the upcoming US strikes in Yemen targeting Houthi militia before they were publicly known." (CNN)
At this point ending the war at all costs, including outright concession of the war to Iranian victory and a complete national military divorce from Israel, is an easily winning message for anyone running especially for POTUS.
People of all ages should be able to relate, from generations who witnessed the U$A's humiliating defeat to Vietnam in the 1970s, to the humiliating defeats in Iraq and Afghanistan in the 2000s up to 2021. No more wars, no matter the reason, unless it's specifically retaliatory and provoked like Pearl Harbor in 1941.

not kill, but impeach, try, and convict. Not for fraud, taxes, perjury, election shenanigans, misogyny, all that stuff is a lot, but is it definitively enough to meet the criteria of high crime? No, but premeditated, unprovoked first-degree homicide is. He is directly responsible for murder of innocent Iranian non-aggressors and should be tried and convicted with due process for such, from the murders of Qassem Soleimani and (Ayatollah) Ali Khameini to the countless tallies of innocent civilian lives he has taken in Iran at the wrath of the U$A and Israel.
Donald J. Trump should not see a day outside bars for the remainder of his life, and J.D. Vance should be disqualified from POTUS as he is equally complicit to the homicides. The next-in-line to fill the vacancy would be the House Speaker, and the Democrats and Hakeem Jeffries are heavily favored to re-take the U$ House of Representatives in November 2026.
I think there are a lot of things that Trump could be impeached for -- at the end of the day, a "high crime or misdemeanor" is whatever a majority of the house of Representatives says it is
The Saudi Defense Ministry says its forces shot down several drones launched from Iraq by Iranian-backed militias in recent hours, attempting to target oil facilities in the Eastern Region and Riyadh.
Trump has got his caught in a crack, he can't accept the cost of winning or losing
Trump to Israeli Channel 12 News: "I'm not giving much time to negotiations; if the talks fail—we'll return to powerful military action"

The UAE is reopening diplomatic and commercial ties with Iran while simultaneously strengthening defense cooperation with the U.S. and Israel.
The strategy reflects Abu Dhabi’s effort to reduce tensions with Tehran without weakening its security partnerships, balancing economic interests with regional deterrence.-FT

Senior US officials assessed sanctions and the naval blockade were doing more damage to Tehran than the 13-day air campaign, which Trump paused over the weekend. Officials cited fuel shortages, bank run risk, and unpaid Iranian fighters.-Axios
Lol "formerly of infowars"
– Alex Jones, formerly of InfoWars, on Tuesday said President Trump must be impeached over the Iran conflict, describing the situation as “absolutely out of control” and warning that the administration is preparing for a national draft.
“The big issue is how to stop Trump. And we have to have Congress go for the war powers. They’ve tried three times to vote on war powers—they’re supposed to authorize a war. This is a war; they’re getting the draft ready. If this isn’t a war, nothing’s a war. I mean, this is absolutely out of control,” Jones said during a live segment broadcast on X.
Not great

Chances are nonzero that by attacking Iran, Trump kicked off WWIII
Damietta is on the Suez side of things

Not really 100% sure who our allies would be at that point
good point
the global belligerence of America First could lead to America Alone
seriously depleted stand off munitions
https://www.stripes.com/theaters/mid...-22406307.htmlIn less than six months of war with Iran, the U.S. has used nearly two-thirds of its Patriot interceptor inventory, according to a new analysis that raises readiness concerns as fighting intensifies and the Pentagon scrambles to replenish stockpiles.
The U.S. and its partners have relied heavily on Patriot and Terminal High Al ude Area Defense, or THAAD, systems to defend troops and bases against Iranian ballistic missile attacks across the Middle East. While the air defense campaign has been largely successful, it has come at a steep cost to U.S. interceptor stockpiles, according to analysts at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. They estimate that the U.S. has between 759 and 827 Patriot interceptors left, roughly a third of its prewar inventory.
The U.S. also has an estimated 234 to 278 THAAD interceptors remaining, down from 452 before the war. “Diminished stockpiles may force the United States and its coalition partners to take more risks with interceptions,” CSIS analysts Mark Cancian and Chris Park said. “There are no good alternatives to Patriot and THAAD for ballistic missile defense.”
No problem. Trump will just bully Congress into siphoning more funds to make more. Arms dealers are licking their chops.
the bigger problem is if trouble breaks out somewhere else in the world and we lack stand off munitions to protect bases and troops
it'll take years to replace what Trump and Hegseth have shot off since Feb 28th

continental US is reportedly being cyberattacked by Iran
Since the USlaunched its war against Iran in late February, the country’s hackers have struck back with retaliatory intrusions that have ranged from paralyzing medical supplies company Strykerto breaching the personal email of FBI director Kash Patel. Now, after an unprecedented wave of disruptive cyberattacks hit water utilities in Minnesota, a memo circulated within the water industry ties those attacks to Iran, too, in the widest and most disruptive strike yet inflicted by the country’s hackers against the US since the war began.https://www.wired.com/story/a-leaked...ities-to-iran/A communication obtained by WIRED on Thursday and sent to members of the Water Information Sharing and Analysis Center, or WaterISAC, an industry group for water utilities to share cybersecurity information, links to Iran a series of cyberattacks that targeted dozens of Minnesota water and wastewater utilities.
The WaterISAC note states that the Minnesota Fusion Center, a state-level intelligence-sharing en y, issued an alert “regarding ongoing malicious cyber activity impacting public drinking water systems across Minnesota” and adds that the fusion center has found that those attacks were “aligned” with a hacking campaign first described in Aprilby the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) as having been carried out by “Iran-affiliated” hackers. (Both the WaterISAC and Minnesota Fusion Center reports were marked as unclassified but “for official use only.”)

who would want to attack the US's water infrastructure?
https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/securit...ays-rcna590210Cyberattacks targeting municipal water systems have been reported in at least seven states this week, prompting the FBI and the Environmental Protection Agency to warn utilities nationwide that hackers are trying to disrupt critical water infrastructure.
In a public service announcement Thursday, the agencies said water and wastewater utilities have reported incidents to the FBI, with some malicious activity degrading water operations. The announcement does not name the states.
wider regional war is breaking out
Pakistan recently did a defense agreement with Saudi Arabia, maybe their troops will be the tip of the spear
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...-central-yemenSaudi Arabia is preparing for a major military offensive against the Houthis by sea and possibly by land in central Yemen, Yemeni sources believe, in a move to break the chokehold on its oil exports through the southern Red Sea.
Saudi forces have been seen withdrawing from the east of Yemen in what could be preparation for a land offensive. At the same time, Riyadh is trying to organise a naval coalition to protect shipping from Houthi attacks in the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandab strait.
The Saudi defence ministry said on Thursday that 14 states including Turkey, Pakistan, Egypt, Sudan and Djibouti had issued a joint statement supporting a multinational maritime defence coalition.
Following drone attacks on eastern Saudi Arabia, Saudi officials have demanded that Baghdad prevent Iraqi territory from being used to launch missiles.-NYT
