This is all going to get much, much worse very soon

I don't have links, I'm copying what someone else posted

American officials tell allies that the US will probably be forced to launch a ground operation to capture Iran's Kharg Island, according to two sources familiar with the matter - I24 News

Israel supports Trump's ultimatum and wants "broad attacks on Iran's energy facilities", according to Kann News



Iran is probably going to go scorched earth if this occurs and millions will die from lack of water, a refugee crisis and economic implosion for the globe

I fear this conflict will come to our shores. Iranians? False flag? who knows. The escalation will get out of hand.

Meanwhile, Trump will continue to host parties and fundraisers at Motel-A-Lago.

has made every one of us, and all of our stuff, anywhere, a target. And that status will not change upon the next election, it will last decades.
