Bloomberg: “The next steps in the U.S. military campaign against Iran will commit nearly its entire inventory of stealthy JASSM-ER cruise missiles, drawing them from stockpiles devoted to other regions.”

“The order to pull the $1.5 million weapon from Pacific stockpiles was issued at the end of March… Missiles at US facilities elsewhere, including the continental US, will be moved to US Central Command bases or Fairford in the UK.”

1. Deplete all of our stockpiles AND alienate all of our allies, to embolden and enable

hostile powers to attack our allies, and succeed.

The traitorousness could not be more transparent, and the complicity of those whose duty it supposedly is to defend the US could not be more obvious.

2. he is unilaterally disarming us...

no allys
no weapons
no goodwill
no money

3. Xi is noticing this, and looking at Taiwan.

He may never have a better opportunity to take the island.

4. He's making very free with that airbase of ours at Fairford,

given that we're irredeemable scaredycats and no use or help to him whatever.

Stick your long-range missiles where the Sun's yet to shine, you chickenhawk fuckwit reprobate.
