Iran hits key UAE oil port and Dubai airport

The United Arab Emirates' (UAE) biggest port and oil storage facility, Fujairah, and Dubai's international airport have come under further drone attacks as Iran continues to target Gulf transport and oil infrastructure.

Total failure.  Iran can hold the whole world hostage and there is nothing Trump can do about it except take his lumps.

The honorable thing to do would be for Trump to go Japanese.

Iran Strikes US Fifth Fleet Base – Bahrain Erupts in Uprising & Saudi Forces Move to Crush Dissent

The Islamic Republic has targeted vital US military infrastructure bases in Persian Gulf nations, the worst hit being Bahrain. Simultaneously, the assassination of Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has revived the predominantly Shia island’s 2011 revolutionary fervor.

Everybody is lining up to make a deal with Trump.

Chris Hedges: Israel’s Assassination of Memory

As Israel ticks off its list of Nazi-like atrocities against the Palestinians, including mass starvation, it prepares for yet another – the demolition of Gaza City, one of the oldest cities on Earth. Heavy engineering equipment and gigantic armored bulldozers are tearing down hundreds of heavily damaged buildings. Cement trucks are churning out concrete to fill tunnels. Israeli tanks and fighter jets pummel neighborhoods to drive Palestinians who remain in the ruins of the city to the south.

Pussy war?  An ethnic cleansing?  It is anything but an 'adventure', and I particularly loath 'Kinetic Response'.

OK, how about "Military Clusterfuck"?

RE

What we have is a modern siege.  Once upon a time when a warlike state invaded another nation for plunder and raw materials they could only stay for a period of time dictated by the agricultural cycle.  In ancient times the majority of soldiers were peasant farmers.  An army that stayed afield too long risked total collapse of the food supply at home.  The harvest and sowing seasons could not be ignored.

This relates, if the shutdown lasts into April the economic hit will shift from short term shock to systemic collapse.  Oil is the lifeblood of modernity.

It is a war for sure.  All Iran has to do is wait for Trump to be ripped apart by his own people since Trump is not man enough to go Japanese.  There is no way Trump can spin his murderous blunder into a win.  This is Trump's Waterloo.

Ali Larijani Killed: Iran's Security Chief And Strongman Who Led Tehran Unofficially After Khamenei's Killing

Israel Defence Forces (IDF) killed Ali Larijani, Iran's Supreme National Security Council Secretary, in a late-night airstrike. This marks the most significant targeted killing since Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's assassination.

America watches through a keyhole while Bibi and Trump have gay sex.  America the Cuk.  Nothing but higher prices, and a world full of disgust and hate for America.  Iran was no threat to America.  None at all.  For murderous Israel, America sacrifices.

America gains nothing from any of this.

What we know on Day 25 of the US and Israel’s war with Iran

Trump postpones threat: Trump paused his threat to strike Iran’s power plants for five days after he claimed the US and Iran reached “major points of agreement” in talks over the weekend – though it’s not clear who the US is negotiating with within the Iranian leadership. Iran’s denial: Iran’s foreign ministry said there was “no dialogue” between Tehran and Washington, according to state affiliated media. They dismissed Trump’s claim as an attempt to lower energy prices and buy time for his military plans. One senior military adviser to the supreme leader said the war will continue until Tehran receives full compensation for damage it has sustained.

Amazing how Wall Street will jump on Tweets from Trumpolini without accepting the obvious realities.  There's no dialogue with the Iranians, regardless of his pronouncements.  There's no way His Trumpness and the Ayatollah are going to run the Straight of Hormuz "together". lol.  There's no way the FSoA is going to pay reparations and grovel apologetically.  Most of all, there's NO FUCKING WAY the oil supply market will return to normal in 2026.

Regardless of all of this, it's being ignored and they go ahead and bid upp the market simply because El Trumpo makes an obviously false statement based on his own fantasies.

On the upside, the return to reality should be spectacular.

El Trumpo makes an obviously false statement based on his own fantasies.

And still people believe him.

The idea that Trump has got some sense, well we have made that mistake before.  Lets not even go there.  Trump's brain is rotting away, and if you think it can improve then you are delusional.  Likely Trump is just buying time for things to get in place before he attempts to grab Kharg or attempt some other madness.  Trump wants to grab Iran by the pussy.  That has not changed.  Grabbing is all Trump knows how to do.

🇮🇷 The Kharg Island Bloodbath?

If Trump carries out his decades-long violent fantasy, his team expects ‘considerable’ US casualties. Plus, the clock is ticking on the US president's threat to commit war crimes in Iran.

Potential talks.  That is a joke,  The first side to talk in this mess admits they are defeated.  Iran knows Israel has other intentions than peace, and there has not yet been enough pain for Trump to throw Israel under the bus as he will have to before this is over.  But as things are today, Trump will throw America under the bus before he throws Israel under it. 

Before Iran can get a peace they can live with Iran will have to throw America into a 1929 style depression.  That is their plan, and they will prevail.  America will be dragged under the Iran bus since America has no real leadership who can deal with this mess.  Our leadership makes these messes so expecting them to deal with the problem is delusionally nuts.  Our leadership made the mess.  Economic warfare is an appropriate plan for Iran.  Iran did not ask to be bombed, and despite what knuckle-dragging Americans say, Iran was not a threat to begin with.  But now, thanks to Trump and crew, they are.

America Has No Good Options in Iran

Three weeks into the joint U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, the outlines of a familiar and dangerous pattern are emerging. The current conflict may for now be significantly different than American wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, or Vietnam—it has not yet drawn in U.S. ground forces in great numbers. But the Iran war shares a deeper strategic reality with these predecessors. Washington is once again fighting a weaker regional power without having clear objectives, a defined theory of victory, and a viable exit strategy.

With no good options available, you can count on Trumpolini to choose the worst one.  Kharg Island seems the most likely, even though the main result would be to further restrict global energy supply for a longer period of time.  It's unlikely to do anything to get the Iranians to surrender.  However, Trumpolini's moving 5000 grunts halfway around the world.  He's not doing that to have them sit on the boat twidling their thumbs.

Another video from Iran.  Madmen are running this war.  Dropping mines from airplanes.  Of course America will say the Israelis did it.  Nobody takes responsibility

  Reporter: Demetri Lceris | Outlet: Reason to Resist
  Date of Recording: March 26, 2026 | Location: Jamal Abad village, near Shiraz, Iran
  
  1. INTRODUCTION & NEW WEAPON DEPLOYMENT
  On the night of March 25–26, 2026, the Israeli or American Air Force dropped a new type of munition on the village of Jamal Abad near Shiraz. The munition disperses magnetic mines over a wide area—similar to a cluster munition—designed to disable armored vehicles. However, it was deployed over a civilian village with no apparent military presence or facility.

  Ongoing Risks
  
  • Security teams have been working since the night of the attack to neutralize mines
  • Some mines have been exploded in controlled demolitions
  • The reporter was unable to witness a controlled explosion due to the security team's absence
  
  Villager's Defiance (Interview with Local Resident)
  
  • Question: "Don't you fear?"
    
  • Response: "Never. If I will die here, I never move from here."
    
  • On Being Defeated: "We won't be defeated even every day they bombing us, bombarding us."
    
  5. REPORTER'S CONCLUDING REFLECTIONS (Demetri Lceris)
  
  
  • He described the scene as "gruesome and distressing," noting that the head of one victim was still lying on the ground at the time of reporting.
  • He stated the attack was "very fresh" and authorities had not yet had the opportunity to fully deal with the aftermath.
  • As a lawyer, he was asked for his views on what was witnessed; he noted the illegality of deploying such weaponry in a civilian area.
