  • "The Department of State advises Americans worldwide to exercise increased caution. Due to heightened tensions in the Middle East, the security environment remains complex with the potential for unforeseen escalation."
  • Similarly, Germany raised its national terror threat level from "Abstract" to "High." read more


    The USIC advised the detestable Trumpf junta that Iran's government is unlikely to feel significant impact or soften its negotiating position as a result of the costly billion dollar a day offensive the US is waging against Iran on behalf of Israel -- who is now sitting out the war to save their own manpower and treasury -- leaving Tehran and Washington stuck in an indefinite limbo between peace and war.

    Expensive quagmire with no clear exit


    The detestable Israeli Death Forces (IDF) killed 12 Palestinians in Gaza City on Tuesday, including the entire al-Masri family (Firas, Salsabeel, three daughters, one son) while they slept without a chance to surrender. The murderous IDF continues its constant violations of the US-backed so-called ceasefire deal, which only disarmed Palestinian resistance fighters " not the serial killers of the Middle East. Since Oct 2025, Israel has killed at least 1,168 Palestinians and wounded 3,798. The Lancet UK estimates the death toll in Gaza as over 75,000 human beings. US Special Envoy for Peace mega-oligarch Steve Witkoff referred to the Palestinians in Gaza as "two million Nazis" and IDF Dr Sabo Amos likened them to cockroaches that needed exterminating.

    Despite the fact that the US launched the billion dollar a day illegal war against Iran "at the request" of Israel, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich stated his country won't waste soldiers or money attacking Iran. "Israel's less visible role was "a blessing for Israelis" since it "reduces the risk of casualties and allows daily life to continue largely as normal, without midnight sirens, trips to bomb shelters, or major disruptions." So, American taxpayers and US Servicemembers should pay the price for defending Israel while they enjoy world class universal healthcare and Americans are stuck with the BBB, a terrible for-profit healthcare system, and a depleted treasury with sky-rocketing prices for fuel and food. Got it.

    State Dept rationale for attacking Iran


    Speaking from a podium with James Talarico's (D) face plastered on it alongside the caption "Talarico: Handcuffed to his record," Texas AG and US Senate candidate Ken Paxton (R) was unable to answer questions about his 15 houses and alleged voter fraud, so he stamped out of a press conference while 22 slack-jawed sheriffs stood around mouths agape.

    Ken Paxton is not a good human being

    This mishegoss started with Dummkopf Trumpf's first Reign of Terror: Nuclear proliferation in Middle East bad idea

    Empty Suit Marco Rubio already changed his position on this when he went from US Senator to junta apparatchik.

    Let's see how Faux News and John Festerman (D-Israel) spin this bucket of s___.

    ICYMI:

    Saudi Arabia is a country that created the man-made famine in Yemen targeting the Houthis and is a regime that executed 356 prisoners by decapitation last year. Muhammad Bone Saws listened in by Smartphone on the anguished cries of Jamal Khashoggi when his clumsy hit squad butchered him alive in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on 2 Oct 2018.

    "...But it's good that you're making it snow, Anthony, it's real good. And tomorrow...tomorrow's gonna be a real good day!"

    "Well look at the big brain on Brad!"


    BTW: I'm thoroughly enjoying On the Beach by Nevil Shute.

    Can't say for certain, but I would imagine US Senator/POTUS JFK and USN Ensign Jimmy Carter read this 1957 classic about an American nuclear-powered submarine looking for survivors of a nuclear Armageddon.

    Mr Shute smoothly intertwined the global North-South divide, the Cold War, societal ennui, and environmental catastrophe all at once. I'll tell you how it ends. ;-)

    The other two legs of the Cold War trilogy: The Manchurian Candidate (Richard Condon, 1959) and Fail-Safe (Eugene Burdick & Harvey Wheeler, 1962).


    *Unless its the stout Irishmen on the NYPD ESU (SWAT Team) arresting the detestable ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu the moment his El Al jumbo jet lands on the tarmac at JFKIA in Sep 2026 when he tries to slime his way to the UN to bleat his lies at the international community.

    Otherwise, ACAB.


    The US government is going bankrupt while Israel offers world class universal healthcare to all its residents and Israelis rank atop the list in the Global Happiness Index (GHI), despite all of the PTSD caused by Israeli Death Forces (IDF) soldiers in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon.

    Sources:

    Israel: Top ten healthcare system in the world

    Israel: Top ten in Global Happiness Index (GHI)

    Israel: Top recipient of billions of US dollars for free every year

    US midterm elections are scheduled for Tuesday 3 Nov 2026.


    Dummkopf Trumpf posted this about his wasteful billion dollar a day war against Iran on behalf of Israel (who is now saving their manpower and funds, unlike the US):

    "Afghanistan War: 20 years, 2,000 DEAD. Iraq War: 9 years, 4,600 DEAD. Vietnam War: 19 years and 5 months, 58,220 DEAD. Korean War: 3 years and 1 month, 36,574 DEAD. Venezuela War: 1 day, 0 DEAD. Iran Military Conflict: 4 months, 18 DEAD."

    The demented altakaker is proud that this quagmire which is bankrupting the US economy has only killed 18 US Servicemembers so far, not counting the innocent civilians he murdered or the environmental catastrophe he caused in Iran.
