  1. There is no way any American serviceman will be on the ground in Iran because there will be mass casualties. Every war they have fought in the last 30 years have been rag tag armies. Iran will be no easy fight for any forces. Hence why no Americans have set foot on Iranian Soil so far.

  2. In this video, the BBC states that Trump has not said the ceasefire with Iran is over (4:04). It took me under a minute to fact-check that. On July 11, 2026 – just 10 days ago – Trump said the ceasefire with Iran was over (NPR). Hanlon's Razor says we should never attribute to intent that which can be explained as stupidity. So, I'm to believe that the BBC is not deliberately lying, but is simply incompetent? That's reassuring.

  3. Diplomatically we have ongoing high level technical talks. Our friends in Pakistan 🇵🇰 share a coastline and relate to Iran. 🕊 A delay in charting both the I E Z and certain tethered mines is an obstacle. We represent GCC defense interests as able. Knock & drop is rather civilized.
