      Even more so, they did not cover how defenseless the bases were. This might shock many but Trump and Kegbreath started a war with Iran without first allowing the military to prepare. I swear, I’m not lying.

        Have they played any simulator games. Don’t start a fight until you’re prepared. Politically, financially, militarily, and even environmentally.

      People just don’t pay attention…

      Iran launching attacks on allied bases were all over the news. We don’t resupply ships by loading up what they need on a boat in Virginia then a month later it shows up, they get shipments from the closest bases.

      So when Iran started blowing up all the bases around Iran, it meant none of the ships around Iran would be resupplied.

      That’s literally why they did it, launching a direct attack would still be an escalation, so they kneecpped fleet operations around the strait and just waited out the blockade…

      People miss a lot more obvious shit these days, but it’s still disappointing.
