This is part of the bigger picture of the Midterms. We don’t want IRGC or China in Venezuela. We don’t want China in Greenland: we should keep China from establishing a trade route from India through the Middle East to Africa. We want a free independent Iran. We shouldn’t be flippant. The long game will get US so much farther.
How do WTP reach our leaders. I know they’re working on the save act. MAGAs are loyal but sometimes robotic. All of our opinions are valuable. Could you and also the Carolina Journal and National Review do open letters from consolidated Chats with signatures?
This makes damned good sense. The regime can implode or actually starve to death. The worst case scenario is post-mullah takeover by even more destructive radicals or warlords. And that would be bad for the citizens of Iran and less bad for everyone else. Hormuz would reopen and business as usual could go on. Bankruptcy in Iran will prevent purchase of ballistics. Also wish that they would freeze assets that are being laundered through allied banks. Just to make the rats leaving the ship uncomfortable.
The seizure of Kharg Island should’ve been a Day 1 objective to coincide with the targeted assassinations and the initial blitz before the regime knew what hit it and could regain its footing.
It's a reasonable thought. But allowing Iran to load it up with soldiers that we could blockade and siege might be easier and safer for us. Plus, once they get hungry enough, they'll probably frag their commanders and surrender.
Again, we in the West must understand that the #1 Goal of the Shiaa "True Believer" is Return of the Mahdi --- which will only sequence upon global conflagation. Any remaining IRGC officer remaining will surely detonate the Kharg facility, rather than allow it to fall intact to Infudels
The Mahdist theology exists. It influences some within the IRGC. It does not govern the institution. The proof: the IRGC has had weeks to destroy Kharg and has not. It repaired Kharg every time Saddam bombed it in the 1980s. The men running the regime bought Caribbean passports and Dubai villas — not the behavior of men seeking apocalyptic conflagration. The sabotage risk is real and will be planned for. The word "surely" is not. When the senior commanders are dead and the foot soldiers have not been paid in two months, the theological impulse competes with the survival impulse. In 27 days of evidence, survival is winning.
As you make clear in your piece, the Kharg facility is the primary source of revenue for the regime/IRGC. Repairing damage done by a beligerent neighbor is one thing; allowing the same to be exploited by the "Twin Satans", to my mind, is another.
To expect surviving leadership of this messianic blood-cult to suddenly change their world view to realpolitik/ capitalism would be ( an answer to this Christian's prayers ) discounting a belief held so fervently that thousands of jihadis have willingly "suicided" their way to Allah.
For one man, from one of the 31 nodes you mentioned, to send one drone laden with a half kg of nearly fissible material ( a dirty drone ) may be preferable, to that last believer.
Excellent report and writing. Updates due: Shamkhani family (led by Ali the Elimated Shamkhani, a r former Iranian naval officer Mojtaba the Comatose Cardboard Khamenei formerly maintained a global property empire in London, Dubai, Frankfurt, and Mallorca.
Seizure of Kharg will unfortunately yield dead soldiers. Easy to write this analysis ( and I 100% concur) but will cost the republicans the midterms. Dead American soldiers are a weapon for Democrats.
The sick thing is if Trump chickens out the Democrats will condemn him for not going forward. If it works out and regime falls, Democrats will pretend they favored it all along (Like they did with the Cold War)
Ryan McBeth thinks that Kharg Island would be unnecessarily costly to take: 8,000 inhabitants would need to be fed and taken care of. He thinks that Hormuz Island is the more likely target. https://youtu.be/3rT5IV3toOE?si=odzR8TXbrkbwrZRP

agree!

I pray this is correct. Washington cannot stop Trump. Only Trump can stop Trump.

As well they should be
