Yes I saw the "Trump interested in ground troops" report. We have a US President who really likes seeing keys jingle about, he probably saw what happened in Venezuela and wants more of that because he thinks it's dope. Not sure if that necessarily means we'll be getting it.

Surprised these systems weren't prioritised in the first week of the war. Sink one tanker all the others grind to a halt. Sink a US military vessel (very unlikely) and the US public will turn even more against this war (already unpopular with a majority of the electorate)
Bigger threat to US victory in the Gulf than the ballistics and it doesn’t matter if they don’t manage to hit a single American ship.

FIVE TO EIGHT YEARS? IS THE RADAR SYSTEM FORGED IN A DYING STAR?
Had seen unconfirmed reports that Iran destroyed a huge, expensive radar system central to Patriot/THAAD in Qatar: here Foreign Policy casually confirms it, says it will take 5-8 years to rebuild, and that another destroyed in Bahrain will take 12-24 monthss to replace.

Feels like the Israeli report of an imminent Azerbaijani counterstrike on Iran after yesterday's drone impacts may just be an attempt to muddy the waters. At the same time, Azerbaijan is not one to back away from a fight if they feel wronged, so I'm not completely ruling it out.

How would Ronaldo being sent to the MLS, specifically the Portland Timbers, because the Saudis can't export their oil, affect his legacy? These are the questions we need to be asking.
