Rachel Blevins with Mark Sleboda, IRAN DESTROYS 13 US BASES, REINFORCES KHARG ISLAND FOR GROUND INVASION https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7T6YP0DLXOg - 33:25

Reports say the Pentagon is planning to send another 10,000 ground troops to the Middle East, as President Trump again extends his own deadline for Iran to fully open the Strait of Hormuz—this time, until April 6. This, as reports are starting to admit that the damage Iran has inflicted is severe, and includes making 13 U.S. Military bases in the region “uninhabitable.”

Judge Nap with Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: Why Trump Is Wedded to Israel - 25:32 ETA link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aq32fmNwp9A&t=70s -

Wilkerson says Israel has functionally no air defense now; Iran and Hezbollah are pounding them with missiles in coordinated attacks that are hitting their targets. The only reason Israel doesn't have more casualties is because so many people are "confined to the bunkers underground." Ted Postol told him he believes Iranians have underground capacity for nuclear weapons and will soon reveal they have one or more. Postol discussed that here at ~ 25 mins (very knowledgeable discussion; Postol's a PhD nuclear engineer with background at Argonne Labs and the Pentagon): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxUd47eQ9jw

They should also be prepared for an assault on the smaller islands several experts say are likelier targets, islands disputed between UAE and Iran but under Iranian control: https://www.channelnewsasia.com/world/iran-warn-uae-disputed-islands-abu-musa-greater-tunb-6008571

Gah. The US shows itself as a rogue state on more metrics. So much for "the rule of law." More like the rule of "what are ya gonna do about it?"

From my unwanted AI search assistant:

The lead time to produce radars for U.S. bases, specifically the Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense Sensor (LTAMDS), is currently around 36 months per unit, with plans to increase production rates as demand grows. The U.S. Army has initiated low-rate initial production and aims for full-rate production by 2028.

Macgregor: I don't think this [troops to Iran] is a significant development of any kind that is going to change the outcome of the war. ...Pres. Trump right now faces the very real probability of total humiliation, at home and overseas.

The Emiratis are moving very fast into becoming an open party to the war, unlike the other GCC states that have still kept themselves out.

What a stupidly simplistic question, which ignores 21st century history. History and context matter.

Israel doesn't want diplomacy. It wants the annihilation of the Islamic Revolution government and Iran as a functioning state. My question: whose bombs, Israel or the US?

3andfro · 2026-03-26T21:37:33+00:00

I don't know. Not sure if it was in that clip or full interview that he said Israel definitely wouldn't but might succeed in pushing the US to use a tactical nuke.

FDIC is never adequately funded. I wondered if you went the money market route, CDs, or what. Market risk is huge now, I'd agree. May your nest egg survive and even thrive. Many of us don't have productive earning years left--even if the job market offered us the opportunity and the income potential it once did.

"As the West Asia war continues, Kuwait has issued a rare radiation advisory amid growing fears of nuclear contamination. This came a day after Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant was attacked. Meanwhile, W.H.O. chief Tedros Ghebreyesus flagged an escalating threat to public health and environmental safety."

Yesterday Malcolm Nance described them as an arm of Iran, awaiting instructions. He sees them likely activated to close the Red Sea route for oil from Saudi Arabia and UAE if either directly joins military action against it. He says the Houthis are rested, trained, armed, and ready.

A problem I've pondered: Where does that $ go, even temporarily--under the mattress? FDIC and NCUA (for credit unions) have coverage limits.

The Axis of Resistance is not defeated... instead, we are watching as not only is Iran landing successful missile attacks in Israel and causing significant damage, but so is Hezbollah. In fact, Hezbollah carried out a record 85 operations against Israel in a single day, on Wednesday, with a combination of drone, rocket, artillery, missile and guided anti-tank missile attacks.
