The Brink of War

We are on the brink of war with Iran.

Israel Reportedly Ready to Launch while Iran Promises Strikes on U.S.Bases

FTA:

Top U.S. officials have been told that Israel is prepared to launch an operation against Iran, reports said, which officials believe will lead to Iranian retaliation against American targets in Iraq.

The move is said to be behind a State Department move Wednesday to order nonessential employees at the American Embassy in Baghdad to leave, according to The Associated Press.

The move was part of an effort "to keeping Americans safe, both at home and abroad,” according to the State Department. As the AP noted, the embassy in Baghdad "already had been on limited staffing, and the order will not affect a large number of personnel.”

And if they do we will have to retaliate in-kind. Where will Russia and particularly China come down on this then?

Never has the world been closer to the Big One. Thank God we have a President with a  brain and not the spaghetti squash of the previous occupant on Pennsylvania ave.

U.S. Central Command said Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth "has authorized the voluntary departure of military dependents from locations” in the region and that CENTCOM "is monitoring the developing tension in the Middle East.”

CBS Newswas the first to report that American officials are anticipating an attack by Israel in Iran, although it didn’t provide specifics.

All non-essential personnel are being  evacuated from our  embassy in Iraq.
