A three-star admiral stood up in a town hall with military families and said it out loud. We are making this up as we go.
Bobby Jones and Sam have been saying it since February 28th. There is no plan. There is no dialogue. There is no destination. And now the Navy itself is confirming it.
1500 military dependents in Bahrain alone don't know where they're sleeping after 180 days. Don't know where their kids are going to school. Some families are paying out of pocket for housing that the military promised to provide. Stars and Stripes reported on it. The staff of Stars and Stripes were fired after the article came out.
The Navy thought they'd only have to evacuate families for 12 days. The order turned out to be 180 days. And nobody told the families. Because there was never a plan.
Bobby breaks down everything else the media isn't connecting. The munitions are gone so the rhetoric is ramping up — economic D-Day declared by a Treasury Secretary who clearly doesn't understand what D-Day was. Marco Rubio hasn't been seen since the decoy plane. The Department of State is so atrophied that a CIA plane landing in Moscow made the entire world stop. Iran hit another tanker — possibly under US escort — and America blinked.
On sanctions — Iran has been sanctioned since 1979. They are calloused to it. That is their normal state of existence. You cannot coerce a nation that has spent its entire modern history being coerced.
On the end state — military 101. Tell me your desired end state and I will give you a target selection list to drive toward it. There is no end state. So there are no real targets. So everything blowing up means nothing. And Iran knows it.
And Trump will talk to Kim Jong-un before he talks to anyone in Iran face to face. Let that marinate.
This is the crumbling of the American empire. Bobby Jones has been saying it since February 28th. More people are listening now.
