^^ The [DS] is panicking, they are saying the quiet part out loud and they are suing the Trump admin to find out if ICE will be at the voting centers. Trump strategy is not to bomb Iran into dust but to tactical disarm the regime to take control of their assets like Kharg and the Straight of Hormuz. Once this happen Iran's economy begins to tank. Bessent has put everything in motion. Has Trump already signalled that mission is a success and that the people will demand the end to the war. Most likely yes.

When perpetuating an alliance becomes its own end, danger is not far off. The post Appeasing Allies appeared first on The American Conservative .
Foreign Affairs Appeasing Allies When perpetuating an alliance becomes its own end, danger is not far off. The concept of “appeasement” is something invoked by foes of diplomacy who are in love with making bad Second World War analogies and applying black-and-white absolutism to the nuances of geopolitics. But there is one place where the term might actually have some constructive purpose: not for giving in to rivals by practicing diplomacy, but for giving in to the demands of allies uncritically. Such appeasement does in fact exist and is indeed dangerous, but not in the way that most who deploy the term mean. Only defense…Open

UK Special Coverage Starmer’s Latest Political Snafu: The Iran War The Labour prime minister’s indecision and the abject state of the British military have created an embarrassing display. UK Special Coverage Forty-four years ago, Margaret Thatcher sent a British task force 8,000 miles to liberate the Falkland Islands. They had been invaded by Argentina. Last week Britain wasn’t even able to send a frigate to protect British personnel and their families in Akrotiri in Cyprus against Iranian drones. The HMS Dragon was still in dock in Portsmouth even as Iran was attacking the UK’s base on the Mediterranean island. The…Open

Latin America Don’t Declare ‘Mission Accomplished’ in Venezuela Yet There are still lots of ways things could fall apart quickly. Americans, Venezuelans, and international observers alike were stunned by the daring night raid on Caracas that resulted in the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, decapitating the government and demonstrating the absolute superiority of American arms and special operations units. The strongman was carted back to the United States in chains (and a surprisingly stylish outfit ) and literally paraded through the streets of New York City. Trump announced to the world that the U.S. would…Open

Politics Is It Still the Department of ‘War’ or Not? Republican congressmen refuse to call the conflict in Iran what it is. In September, Donald Trump renamed the Department of Defense to its previous title , the Department of War. The president said at the time, “It used to be called the Department of War and it had a stronger sound… We want defense, but we want offense too.” Secretary of Defense/War Pete Hegseth would add , “This name change is not just about renaming, it’s about restoring.” “Words matter,” he insisted. Words do matter. Both Trump and Hegseth both promised at various times…Open

Foreign Affairs On Iran, Trump Should Take the Money and Run (Again) The war looks like a case of diminishing returns, but ending it now allows the president to claim tangible victories. (Joe Raedle/Getty Images) “Very complete, pretty much”—thus President Donald Trump has described the progress of the war in Iran. (Of course, in the same Monday speech, he suggested with a classic bit of Trumpian triangulation that the United States might capture the Strait of Hormuz, so your mileage may vary.) The awesome strength of American conventional arms has been on full display. The Pentagon has announced encouraging signs…Open
