There is some serious gay-opping going on regarding Kharg Island.
Everyone knows a landing there is nearly impossible, yet that's all anyone seems to be talking about. It all stinks of misdirection. Apparently the Iranians have bought it too and are moving resources to defend the island.
I think this is a rerun of the "D-Day will be at Calais" deception. There likely will be some kind of limited ground incursion this weekend after markets close on Friday. However, it's most likely going to be one if the smaller islands at the narrowest portion of the strait. The Americans will seek to disrupt the Iranian toll-booth operation.

Did someone at the Pentagon leak the new 10K surge number to steer opinion against the war before it gets worse, or to intimidate and misdirect the Iranians? I'd guess the former, if it weren't the WSJ.

Exclusive: Pentagon Weighs Sending Another 10,000 Ground Troops to the Middle East
The Pentagon is looking at sending up to 10,000 additional ground troops to the Middle East to give President Trump more military options even as he weighs peace talks with Tehran, Department of Defense officials with knowledge of the planning said.

Open letter from General Anderson, commander of Marine Forces Reserve to the Reserve component stating to be on a heightened state of readiness due to the situation in the Persian Gulf.
Here will be the flow of mobilization:
First, they will pull every active duty scrub into the fight they can. Remember individual augmentees in the GWOT? Remember Navy cooks in flaks manning checkpoints in Baghdad? Also denying retirement requests etc.
Second/concurrently, the reserves aren't going it be so much in reserve anymore. Expect mass activations soon. The first Americans killed in this conflict were reservist from Iowa. Manpower is already tight.
Third, the individual ready reserve will get called up. You thought signing up for IRR was a free lunch?
Fourth, they will push really hard for veterans ro re-enlist. Retirees will start getting recalled to service.
Fifth, they will stop asking and start ordering veterans back into service. Under what legal framework, I'm not sure. But they will try very hard.
Finally, I believe a draft is on the table once the options above run dry.
These options may happen all at once or months in between. It's anyone's guess.

Trump will deliver a speech with an "important update" on the war with Iran at 9 p.m. Eastern.
This takes place on April Fools. I honestly don't know if that will directly factor into what we can take at face value from this speech.

After a thorough reading of the tea leaves, Iโd say we are in for boots on the ground some time after market close on Thursday.

More importantly, this announcement coincides with the beginning of passover at sundown tonight.
This war's beginning coincided with Purim. The Kabbalists in power are acutely aware of the symbolic and demonic power of these dates.
On a practical note, passover's full moon is favorable for both parachuting and amphibious operations.

Cheap 50cc and 150cc scooters are becoming unobtainium really fast. These are the hand sanitizers/toilet paper of this crisis.
If you can find a decent one, grab it. Especially in the 150cc variety, you can make 70-80 mpg and still go 55+ mph.
Obviously, don't spend $1000 to save $200 on gas. Keep it really cheap and replace your car for most trips this summer to break even.

Something tells me they dont want to be "liberated" hoss
So this "truce" involves no meeting of the minds between the parties on terms and no ceasing of fire. What truce?

If you wish to know how demonic the United States has become, look no further than Kristi Noem. Four weeks ago, she was arguably the most powerful woman in the United States. A "conservative" Republican so confident in herself that she was lecturing Ron DeSantis and Brian Kemp in 2024 as to how leftist Florida and Georgia were compared to her state, because she backed Trump. Not only do we now know she had an extramarital affair at least once, she is married to a literal transvestite. If you thought Trump was going to save the United States, look at Noem and honestly ask yourself if you really believe no one told POTUS at least once, "Hey, Noem is married to a crossdresser." A man who still employed a degenerate like Noem is likely surrounded by other demonic degenerates. Those are the people running an abomination called "The Union."

Rember Trump Derangement Syndrome? How all the libs just lost their mind over his mere existence?
Now Trump himself has caught the bug but it's regarding Iran. It's the same sort of profanity laden "tough guy" rhetoric too:
HEY LIL DONNY/IRAN, LISTEN UP YOU **. THERE'S GONNA BE BIG CONSEQUENCES OK PAL? YA CRAZY **** RESIGN FROM OFFICE/OPEN UP THE STRAIT
It's kind of poetic watching Trump succumb to the very illness he caused in others.
