Iran campaign ahead of schedule

Monday, March 30, 2026

Ret. Centcom Commander on Iran: "I've simulated this many times in many positions; we're a little further along than we would expect to be at this point in all the simulations I've seen." "This is not back-of-the-envelope calculations. We've been working on this for many years."

'One month ago...'

'Ret. Gen. Frank McKenzie "not of the opinion" that U.S. will necessarily use military assets on Iran'

The Military in general is a lot better and miles more competent that the Commander in Clown Chief and his Fox News 'War Dept' Leader... which is really our only saving grace at the moment.

TACOing isn't really something they practice, and that's Donnie Doolittle's only real tactic.

So to be clear

4 to 6 weeks is the "schedule"

Meaning all wrapped up by a week from this coming Friday

11 days from now

Does it feel like it will be done in 11 days?

Oh so Iran was right when they said the United States is planning an invasion.

To give W some credit, he actually flew to the carrier on an S-3 Viking. Lewzer wouldn't even fit in one of those.

American taxpayer money funding Israel's excellent healthcare system and IDF attack against the people of Iran

There's people in the pentagon whose only job is to run scenarios invading everybody. I'm sure they've war gamed Iran for decades.

Right.
But I doubt they gamed much beyond rendering Iran defenseless.
And if they dreamed up some kind of Marshall Plan, there's no way Trump would follow through with that.

He could call it the, Marshmallow Plan.... named after himself, of course!
