Steve Witkoff on Israel:

Israel is a one-bomb country.

One bomb takes them out.

Israel plans to increase its defense budget by about $13 billion to fund the war with Iran.

U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal after Iran briefing:

We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives here.

🇮🇷🇺🇸| US energy secretary Chris Wright had claimed the US escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz, earlier today.

The IRGC immediately denied this claim and sald it was false, did not happen.

Now, Chris Wright deleted his post and a US official confirmed his claim was not true.

Berri's office does not comment about the government's decision to outlaw Hezbullah, and states that the Leader Berri rejects the Lebanese's 4th point about direct peace talks with Israel

And that Berri confirms we already had a ceasefire that should have been implemented and that the Mechanism is how this matter should be directed through

🇺🇸 So far the U.S military suffered 150 injuries as a result of the Iranian attacks on U.S bases in the Gulf, including about a dozen at most being critical (life threatening)

About 7-8 have been officially acknowledged as killed in combat, whereas 3 have been mourned as non-war related deaths

I hope people understand that no matter how this war ends, Lebanon will never be the same again and the situation will only explode worse internally.

A lot of problems both secterian and ideological and no where is there any solution.

Worse, the Lebanese government's orders by outlawing Hezbullah will never be backtracked without inflicting sanctions on Lebanon under the current U.S administration or maybe any.

What will happen to everything and anything is a question only time can tell. You can speculate a lot of things but never ever happens accordingly to plan when you are not all mighty

هكذا بدت مدينة #الخيام وتلة الحمامص بعد المواجهات التي حصلت خلال الليلة الماضية بين المقاومة وقوات الإحتلال

Clashes ongoing tonight in Aitaroun town. The IDF is shelling the town of phosphorus.

The IDF's doctrine is quite simple:

- Bomb the life out of somewhere
- Enter
- Get shot at?
- Retreat
- Bomb the whole area until only death and destruction remains
- Enter the area
- Declare victory

Genuinely? War is this brutal. No one can make excuses or nag.

🇺🇸 The U.S has now gathered in the U.K 15 bombers comprising 12x B-1B and 3x B-52H for the war in Iran

The Israeli attack today on Baraacheet murdered the Lebanese army soldier Khader Wafiq Shqeir while trying to get his family out of the town

Many Lebanon families stayed in south Lebanon, including Hamdan family who were killed.

The mother's Whatsapp messages went public saying they will stay home because they won't stay on the streets with no where to go

That everyone they called, none offered to rent a house

✝ NOW - Secretary of War Hegseth: "Blessed be the Lord, my rock. Who trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle."

US Senator Lindsey Graham:

“I’m not with you, I’m with Israel, until my dying day.”

Lindsey Graham finally mentions South Carolina:

"I go back to South Carolina, I'm asking them to send their sons and daughters over to the Mid-East."

White House on Iran:

As for boots on the ground, Trump does not rule options out.

🇮🇱 Situation assessments in Israel admit: There is no certainty about the ability to overthrow the Iranian regime

And there are still assessments in Israel:

Contrary to Trump's statements, he is not close to declaring the end of the war.

The talks between Israel and the US show that the IDF will have at least several more long days of fighting, during which they will be able to intensify the damage to regime targets and security industries in Iran.

🇮🇱 Hezbullah and Israel:

A discussion is currently underway with the Prime Minister Netanyahu, and the understanding in Israel is that despite the significant damage to the organization's top brass, they have managed to "stabilize the ranks."

📸 2,000 pound bombs without the JDAM kit attached yet. The B-1 carries 24 of them.

Mine the damn strait fast...before the burden of this war is only on Iran instead of the whole world

❗️A short while ago, 3 B-1B "Lancer" bombers from RAF Fairford launched to head on the first UK-based mission to Iran.

The bombers will likely refuel at points during the journey, which sees the usually 36-hrs round-trip from the mainland US reduced to around 18-20 hours.
